How'd it 快說時擠成一團,d 只輕輕帶過,別拆開。
- How'd it go? - Oh, great.Rounders · 1998 — 第 3 / 26 章 · 3'07" · B2
一段家常沒聊幾句,話題就拐到「昨晚沒回家,卻去給法官讀牌」。有人先解釋自己 read his hand blind(不看牌也猜中手牌),又說那只是 networking(拉人脈),把套近乎說成體面社交。想練解釋動機、為自己辯解的口語,這幾句很夠用。
兩個人從白天過得怎麼樣聊起,很快變成追問:為什麼沒回家,反而出現在法官的牌局邊?有人解釋自己沒上桌,只是 read his hand blind(不看牌也猜中手牌),因此 caught his eye(引起某人注意);他把這說成 networking(拉人脈),不承認那是 con(騙術)。對方接著說,靠這種方式進去,在那些人眼裡永遠是個 hustler(靠賭或騙術謀生的人)。想學「解釋、辯解、被追問」的口語,可以從 in line for(有望得到)和 con your way into(靠騙術混進)入手。

有人提到自己可能有機會拿到法官助理職位,用了 in line for(有望得到)這個說法,對方追問細節,他繼續解釋。
I think I might be in line for a clerkship.聽人把話說完 不是‘聽我出去’,是聽我把話說完。

有人急著解釋自己沒上桌,只憑觀察就讀出對方的手牌,也就是 read his hand blind(不看牌也猜中手牌),一再說明自己只是讀牌。

You know, the way you calculate odds on the spot, the way you read people.看透人心 不是讀書,是看人。
You know, the way you calculate odds on the spot, the way you read people.方式從句:the way 後省略 in which,等於‘你計算賠率的方式’,與後一個 the way 並列。
You know, the way you calculate odds on the spot, the way you read people.靠騙術混進 不是正常走進去,是靠騙術混進。
That's what I meant. I didn't mean that you should try to con your way into a summer job.賓語從句:mean 後接 that 從句,否定放在主句:我不是說你應該…;從句用 should 表建議。
That's what I meant. I didn't mean that you should try to con your way into a summer job.騙;哄騙——口語指責或自嘲,正式文書用 deceive。
- Honey, con? I was networking. - Oh, God.條件句:if 從句提出‘這樣入行’,主句用 will 給出後果:在別人眼裡永遠是 hustler。
It's true. I just think if you get in this way, you'll always be a hustler to them.開車接某人

Shit. I didn't even play.糟了;該死——懊惱時脫口,正式場合別用。

I think I might be in line for a clerkship.我覺得我可能有機會拿到書記員職位。 might 和 in line for 把期待說得有分寸,既興奮又不把話說死。
You know what I meant. I meant that you should use your head.你知道我什麼意思。我是說你應該動腦子。 重複 I meant 搶回解釋權,把對方偷換的概念按回原位。
It's true. I just think if you get in this way, you'll always be a hustler to them.沒錯。我只是覺得,如果你這樣入行,在他們眼裡你永遠是個賭徒。 先讓一步說 It's true,再用 if 把一次選擇推成永久標籤,冷靜卻最傷人。
Shit. I didn't even play.該死。我根本連牌都沒打。 一句粗口加 even,把委屈和防禦全壓出來,也點出爭的是身份不是動作。
這裡不是「排隊」,而是「有望得到」。臺詞裡說 I think I might be in line for a clerkship,就是覺得自己可能有機會當上法官助理。
說 read his hand blind。臺詞裡有人解釋自己讀了對方的牌,就說 I read his hand blind,重點是沒看牌也猜中了。
不是單純的誇獎。networking 本意是拉人脈、建立職業關係,本身中性;這裡有人把牌桌上的接近說成 networking,對方馬上反問 Are you trying to con me now?(你現在是在糊弄我嗎?),其實是在拆穿這層體面說法。
用 con your way into。臺詞裡有人說 I didn't mean that you should try to con your way into a summer job,意思是自己不是讓你靠耍手段騙個暑期工作。
強調「連……都沒做」。最後一句 I didn't even play. 是在強調自己根本沒上桌打牌。
