這場戲：車上被打了個三分
第 1 章 · 共 18 章 · 2'36"
車上，特倫特問鄧肯給自己打幾分，鄧肯小聲說六分，特倫特卻回他 I think you're a three（我看你只有三分），還說他從來不 putting yourself out there（主動去闖）。想學怎麼用英文給別人「打分」、怎麼當面說人不主動，這段又扎心又典型。
on a scale of one to ten（按一到十分打分）
On a scale of one to ten 按一到十分來打分speak up 大聲點說、敢開口Pick any number 隨便挑一個數shout it out 大聲喊出來

開往海邊別墅的車上，特倫特突然問鄧肯：On a scale of one to ten, what do you think you are?（一到十分，你覺得你自己是幾分？）鄧肯小聲說六分，特倫特卻直說 I think you're a three（我看你只有三分），理由是自從跟他媽在一起，鄧肯從不 putting yourself out there（主動去闖），也不去認識同齡人，只願意窩在公寓裡。他嘴上說這是 fair assessment（公道的評價），接著又畫大餅：夏天會有很多孩子和機會 take advantage of（去抓），還說 One day, we could become a family（總有一天我們能成為一家人）。
A1–C2 是歐標等級。點一個等級後，比它高的卡片會變淡，播放到那裡不會自動暫停。
“On a scale of one to ten, what do you think you are?”
一到十分，你覺得你自己是幾分？
聽著像遊戲，其實是把人架到打分臺上，逼他交出對自己的評價。
On a scale of one to ten, ...?
要讓人給感受或表現打分時用；對不熟的人這樣追問會讓人尷尬，別輕易用。
Out of ten, how would you rate ...? ／ From one to ten, where would you put ...?
中性
scale of one 連讀，句尾 what do you 輕快帶過，尾音上揚。
On a scale of one to ten, how happy are you with the new place? 一到十分，你對新住處有多滿意？
“I can't hear you, bud. You have to speak up.”
我聽不見，老兄。你得大聲點。
半是提醒半是命令，一句就把大人居高臨下的態度擺了出來。
You have to speak up.
要人把話說大聲、說清楚時用；對上司或長輩下命令的口氣會失禮，別照搬。
You need to speak up. ／ Speak up, I can't hear you.
口語
can't hear you 連讀，speak up 的重音落在 up。
You have to speak up in the meeting, or no one hears you. 開會時你得大聲點，不然沒人聽得見。
“I think you're a three.”
我看你只有三分。
一句短判詞，把對方剛說出的六分直接推翻，冷得乾脆。
I think you're a ...
要當面下判斷、給評價時用；這種打分是貶低人的說法，別拿來評價朋友。
I'd say you're a three. ／ To me, you're a three.
口語
think 輕讀，you're a 連讀，three 重讀落定。
I think this one's a ten; the other is barely a five. 我覺得這道是滿分，另一道頂多五分。
“Since I've been dating your mom, I don't see you putting yourself out there, bud.”
自從我跟你媽在一起，我就沒見你主動往外闖過，老兄。
把指責包進『我認識你以來』的句式，顯得句句有據，其實在否定人。
Since I've been ..., I don't see you ...
想拿相處經歷當依據批評人時用；這種句式常帶指責，別對在乎的人用。
Since we met, I haven't seen you ... ／ In all this time, I don't see you ...
中性
Since I've been 縮讀，putting yourself 連讀，out there 稍拖長。
Since you joined the team, I don't see you pushing yourself. 自從你進隊，我就沒見你拼過。
“But, the good news I'm here to tell you, since there's going to be plenty of kids and plenty of opportunities for you to take advantage of at my beach house this summer.”
不過，有個好訊息我要告訴你：今年夏天在我那海邊別墅，會有很多孩子，也有很多機會等著你去抓。
先踩後捧的轉折全在這一句，把批評包裝成一片好意，話術味十足。
the good news is (that) ...
要宣佈對自己有利的好訊息時用；拿這句去說服人，會顯得別有用心。
The good news is, ... ／ Here's the good news: ...
口語
the good news 輕快，plenty of 連讀，take advantage of 一氣說完。
The good news is you can start next Monday. 好訊息是，你下週一就能入職。
“One day, we could become a family.”
總有一天，我們能成為一家人。
很暖的一句，偏偏放在數落之後，反倒成了讓人乖乖聽話的甜頭。
One day, we could ...
談將來、給人盼頭時用；真正的一家人不會拿它當條件，用前要想清楚。
Some day, we might be a family. ／ Maybe one day we'll be a family.
中性
One day 後略停，could 弱讀，family 尾音收輕。
One day, we could run this place ourselves. 總有一天，我們能自己把這裡經營起來。
Since I've been dating your mom, I don't see you putting yourself out there, bud. Meeting kids your own age. And from what your mom tells me, you just seem content to hang around her apartment. Is that a fair assessment? You're just happy to not do anything? Because, damn, to me that is a three. But, the good news I'm here to tell you, since there's going to be plenty of kids and plenty of opportunities for you to take advantage of at my beach house this summer. It's a big summer for all of us, really. You, your mom. Me, Steph. One day, we could become a family.
自從我跟你媽在一起，我就沒見你主動往外闖過，老兄。 也不去認識同齡的孩子。 而且聽你媽說，你好像就樂意待在她的公寓裡。 我這麼說算公道吧？你就是樂意什麼都不幹？ 因為，說真的，在我看來那就是三分。 不過，有個好訊息我要告訴你：今年夏天在我那海邊別墅，會有很多孩子，也有很多機會等著你去抓。 說實話，這對我們所有人都是個大夏天。 你，你媽。還有我，斯蒂芙。 總有一天，我們能成為一家人。

下一章 · 02off the wagon破戒這場戲：鄰居話癆式熱情迎接意思是「主動去闖、去接觸人」，指走出舒適圈、去社交、去嘗試。片裡特倫特拿它數落鄧肯從不肯主動認識人。
意思是「按一到十分打分」，用來讓人給某件事評分。片裡 On a scale of one to ten, what do you think you are? 就是「一到十分，你覺得自己是幾分？」。
意思是「利用、抓住（機會）」，常帶正面意味，比如 take advantage of the chance 就是「抓住這次機會」。片裡指夏天有很多機會。
speak up。它既可以指「說話大聲點」，也可以指「敢於開口、表達意見」，片裡特倫特讓鄧肯 speak up 就是讓他大聲說。
意思是「老兄、哥們」，是長輩或男性之間很隨意的稱呼，比 dude 稍軟一點。片裡特倫特反覆用 bud 叫鄧肯，想顯得親近。
