Oh, great plan so far. Oh, my god.The Intern · 2015 — 第 12 / 18 章 · 2'13" · B2
朱爾斯母親家裡,警報忽然進入倒計時,一屋子人翻找電腦,有人打電話問密碼。電話裡一句 put someone on(讓某人接電話),電話那頭又堅稱這是假警報,後面一句 no such thing as(根本沒有…這回事)把笑點頂出來。想學打電話催人、聊假警報的地道說法,這場戲夠用。
一群人進了朱爾斯母親家,要找一臺電腦,刪掉一封郵件。廚房裡的警報突然進入倒計時,他們打電話問密碼,電話裡有人急著說 It's about to go off(馬上就要響了)。電話那頭說這警報是假的,可它還是響個不停,一句 no such thing as(根本沒有…這回事)等於咬定假警報根本不存在。等有人慌到喊 My life is over!(我的人生完了),旁邊一句 pull it together(穩住;冷靜下來)讓他先定定神。這些說法在打電話、處理突發狀況、安撫慌亂的人時都用得上。
這場戲看什麼
留意這幾個短語
put someone onscrew aroundgo offdoing a good job
本章短語
根本沒有…這回事something does not exist
警報一響,有人馬上用 no such thing as 咬定假警報根本不存在;表面是“我早說過”,底下是撐不住的慌。
There's no such thing as a quiet airport.根本不存在安靜的機場。
讓某人接電話
磨蹭;胡鬧
(警報)響起
乾巴巴的誇獎:還真管用
穩住;冷靜下來
66 句台詞裡標了 29 處
到目前為止
Oh, great plan so far. Oh, my god.變成真的警報 不是變成一臺警報器,而是警報真的響起來
- Lewis, get Becky. - If we don't know the code, This is gonna turn into an alarm in 60 seconds.條件從句:if 從句用一般現在時,主句用 gonna 說後果:不知道密碼,警報就會響。
- Lewis, get Becky. - If we don't know the code, This is gonna turn into an alarm in 60 seconds.讓我等著沒掛電話
She put me on hold. What is wrong with that girl?按理該做什麼
This is so not good. What are we supposed to do, Ben?太糟了——口語里加強否定,朋友間用,正式場合別用
This is so not good. What are we supposed to do, Ben?尋找
- Uh-Huh! - Go look for the computer!磨蹭;胡鬧——熟人之間催人,正式場合別用
Becky, don't screw around. Put Jules on. It's an emergency.正在開會
- She's in a meeting. - Interrupt her.馬上就要(發生)
I'm in her kitchen. It's about to go off. What's her code?about to 快說時連成一團,t 輕輕帶過,別切成兩個詞
I'm in her kitchen. It's about to go off. What's her code?完全不知道
I have no idea. Ben, listen to me.定語從句:that 指前面的 fake alarm,後面 she bought... 說明警報從哪兒來;不是兩個並列句。
That is a fake alarm that she bought Off of some infomercial or something, okay?把…嚇走
It's just to scare off burglars.花錢裝警報器
Listen, my parents would never pay for an alarm, okay?這事聽我的
Trust me on this one. Have you found the computer?找人把它修好
It's white. I got it fixed for her once.使役結構:get + 賓語 it + 過去分詞 fixed,表示“找人把電腦修好”,不是自己修。
It's white. I got it fixed for her once.被逮捕
We're gonna get arrested! I knew it!到處都是
Our fingerprints are all over this place!趕緊加速——熟人催促,像下口令,別對上級說
- Not yet. - Double-Time it, dude.極難纏的女人(粗話)——重度侮辱語,任何正式場合都別用
"Why is my mother always such a raging bitch?"……結束了;(某人的)……完了 這裡用 my life is over 誇張說人生毀了,不是生命真的結束。
Right side facing the bed! Oh, my god! My life is over!犯了罪
I'm gonna be a felon and I have not committed a crime!gonna 壓到最輕,be 與 a 合成 /biə/,重音整個壓在 felon 的頭一個音節上
I'm gonna be a felon and I have not committed a crime!賓語從句:how far away 後接陳述語序 that is,不能倒裝;意思是“那聲音有多遠”。
Can't you hear how far away that is?重音壓在 far 和 way,how 輕起,別平均用力
Can't you hear how far away that is?至少
We've got at least 30 seconds until they're here.向某人解釋這件事
how am I gonna explain this to my parents?I'm in her kitchen. It's about to go off. What's her code?我在她廚房裡。警報馬上要響了。她密碼是多少? 三句短句把地點、倒計時、請求一口氣壓緊,慌亂感全在節奏裡。
Oh, well, it's doing a good job.哦,好吧,它幹得還挺稱職。 輕飄飄一句乾巴巴的誇獎,把假警報正在嚇到闖入者的荒誕感擰出來。
They're the cheapest people in America.他們是全美國最摳的人。 用全國範圍誇張地吐槽父母省錢,比直接說 cheap 更有畫面。
I knew there was no such thing as a fake alarm!我就知道根本沒有什麼假警報! 一句“我早說過”把嘴硬和恐慌綁在一起,還帶 no such thing as 的地道否定。
I'm gonna be a felon and I have not committed a crime!我就要成重罪犯了,可我根本沒犯罪! 用“重罪犯”對“沒犯罪”的硬碰硬反差,把荒唐恐慌寫成金句。
是「讓某人接電話」。臺詞裡有一句 Becky, put Jules on.(貝基,讓朱爾斯接電話),就是叫對方把電話轉給另一個人。轉接電話、叫人來聽時都能用。
可以說 go off。臺詞裡有一句 It's about to go off.(馬上就要響了),about to 就是「馬上要」。說警報、鬧鐘突然響起,都可以用 go off。
screw around 可以表示「磨蹭」,也可以表示「胡鬧」。臺詞裡一句 Becky, don't screw around.(貝基,別磨蹭)是在催對方別拖,趕緊把電話轉過去。日常催人別胡搞也能用。
是「穩住;冷靜下來」。有人慌到說 My life is over!(我的人生完了),旁邊一句 Davis. Davis, pull it together.(戴維斯,冷靜點)就是讓他把情緒收住。身邊有人慌神時,這句能派上用場。
可以用 no such thing as,表示「根本沒有…這回事」。臺詞裡說 I knew there was no such thing as a fake alarm!(我就知道根本沒有什麼假警報),就是咬定某類東西不存在。想表達「哪有這種事」時很好用。
