I wake up in a crowded room full of people sleeping on the floor,Come from Away · 2021 — 第 11 / 22 章 · 5'05" · B1
旅客在收容点换上别人捐的衣服,有人打电话回家,只说一句 I just needed to hear your voice(我只是需要听听你的声音)。广播里传来坏消息:The American airspace remains closed(美国领空仍然关闭);有人提不起劲,想躺下假装什么都没发生,同伴只好丢下一句 Suit yourself(随你便)。想学安慰和丧气话,这段很戳心。
滞留的旅客在收容点醒来,大家挤在地上睡了一夜,随后有人发衣服,凯文换上格子的,自称要 blend in(融入当地)。有人打电话回家,只想听家人的声音;广播里,机长说 The American airspace remains closed(美国领空仍然关闭),还要 for some time(待上一阵子)。汉娜坐立不安,只想等儿子的消息;有人劝她出去走走,说 It'll do you good(对你有好处),她却不领情,说躺着假装什么都没发生才好,对方只好回一句 Suit yourself(随你便)。另一边,小镇张罗起素食、洁食和各式饭菜,热闹又暖心。想学安慰、报消息和丧气话的英语,这段很全。
这场戏看什么
留意这几个短语

对你有好处
有一阵子;要待一段时间

No, what'll do me good is to lie down, pretend this isn't happening.不,对我有好处的是躺下,假装这一切没发生。 用 what'll do me good 的正经句式和假装没发生形成反差,自嘲里全是疲惫。拒绝关心也是求救。
And it's somehow like We're at a costume party不知怎么的,我们就像在一个化装舞会上。 用 costume party 比喻一群人临时穿上别人的衣服、扮演陌生的自己,轻盈的意象里藏着身份的松动。
意思是「随你便、你爱怎样就怎样」,带点冷淡或不耐烦。劝不动对方时,甩出这句等于「那你自己看着办」。

意思是「对你有好处」。It'll do you good 就是「这对你有好处」,常用来劝人出去走走、换个心情。
for some time。We're gonna be here for some time 就是「我们要在这儿待上一阵子」,语气委婉但时间不短。
I just needed to hear your voice。想表达想念、想报平安时,这句话简单又动人。
