So the lost communications came through.Interstellar · 2014 — 第 6 / 13 章 · 2'53" · B2
耐力号上,众人算出一笔时间账:米勒星球离黑洞太近,每待一小时,地球就过七年。有人提醒 Plan A does not work if the people on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off(如果办成计划A时地球上的人已经死了,计划A也行不通),主张把时间当资源。想聊取舍、算代价、说服别人,这些表达都实用。
《星际穿越》里,耐力号上的人分析失联信号:米勒的站点一直发 thumbs up(竖大拇指、表示正常),埃德蒙斯的信号却 went dark(中断、失联)。真正的难题是时间:米勒星球太靠近黑洞,The gravity on that planet will slow our clock compared to Earth's drastically(那颗行星的引力会让我们的时钟相对地球急剧变慢),在上面待一小时,地球就过去七年。于是有人说 We need to think of time as a resource(我们得把时间当成资源),主张绕更宽的轨道省时间,因为 We lose a little fuel, but we save a whole lot of time(多耗一点燃料,却省下大量时间)。想聊取舍、算代价、在争论里说服别人,这些表达都用得上。
这场戏看什么
留意这几个短语

本章短语
把它办成、成功做到to succeed at something difficult
库珀指出,就算计划A最终成功,如果地球上的人已经死光,那也是白费。
Nobody thought they could pull it off, but the launch worked.没人觉得他们能办成,可发射成功了。
信号中断、失联
竖大拇指、表示一切正常
把格局放大、想得更长远

传了过来
So the lost communications came through.没什么真正意外
So years of basic data. No real surprises.竖大拇指、表示一切正常
多伊尔说米勒的站点一直发来「竖大拇指」,代表那里一切正常。
Miller's site has kept pinging thumbs up, as has Dr. Mann's. Um...kept pinging 里 kept 的 t 只做口型不出声,直接接 pinging。
Miller's site has kept pinging thumbs up, as has Dr. Mann's. Um...信号中断、失联
多伊尔说埃德蒙斯的信号三年前就中断了,此前一直正常发送。
Maybe. He was sending the thumbs up right until it went dark.但有一个麻烦
With one complication.比我们以为的更
The planet is much closer to Gargantua than we thought.近到危险
Landing there takes us dangerously close.绕……飞一圈
Look, I could swing around that neutron star to decelerate.与……相比
The gravity on that planet will slow our clock compared to Earth's drastically.compared to Earth's 的 to 常弱化为 /tə/,重音压在 compared 和 Earth's 上。
The gravity on that planet will slow our clock compared to Earth's drastically.各位、大家——口语里对一群人的称呼,亲切又不正式;正式报告和学术写作里应换成更中性的说法。
Well, that's relativity, folks.把格局放大、想得更长远
布兰德劝库珀别只惦记家人,说 you have to think bigger,让他从全人类的角度看这次任务。
You can't just think about your family. Now you have to think bigger.把它办成、成功做到
库珀指出,就算计划A最终成功,如果地球上的人已经死光,那也是白费。
Plan A does not work if the people on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off.by the time 从句:Plan A does not work if the people on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off. 里 by the time 引出完成这件事的时间点,从句用一般现在时 we pull it off 表将来。整句的意思是:等我们办成时,如果地球上的人已经死光,计划A就毫无意义。
Plan A does not work if the people on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off.把时间看成
We need to think of time as a resource, like oxygen and food. Going down will cost us.这种发现可不是天天有
- You don't find that every day. - No, you don't.离得有多远
...how far off from Miller's planet do we have to be to stay out of the time shift?which 引导的补充说明:...which would conserve fuel, but we would lose a lot of time... 里 which 指代前面整件事「把耐力号开进米勒星球轨道」,补充说明它省燃料的代价。which 前面用逗号隔开,属于补充信息,删掉也不影响主句成立。
...which would conserve fuel, but we would lose a lot of time...what if we 里 what 的 t 舌尖轻弹滑进 if,三词贴成一块。
...what if we take a wider orbit around Gargantua, parallel with Miller's planet...大量的
We lose a little fuel, but we save a whole lot of time.No, it's not that. It's time.不,问题不在这个。是时间。 先否掉一个技术上的担心,再用两个词把真正的代价亮出来。短句像一记刹车,让整场讨论从燃料问题转到人最舍不得的东西。
Plan A does not work if the people on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off.如果等我们完成计划A时地球上的人都死了,计划A就行不通。 它把宏大计划和最朴素的前提绑在一起:人得活着。逻辑清楚到冷,也直接点破计划A的根本漏洞,为计划B的存在铺路。
We need to think of time as a resource, like oxygen and food. Going down will cost us.我们得把时间当作一种资源,就像氧气和食物一样。下去就要付出代价。 把时间列进氧气和食物的清单,一瞬间变得可以被消耗、被节省、被花光。它让相对论从公式变成一本账,也解释了后面所有抉择的重量。
You can't just think about your family. Now you have to think bigger.你不能只想着你的家人了,现在你得把格局放得更大。 一句把「小我」和「全人类」摆上台面的劝告,也可以反过来理解成对人性的指责。它短、直、带命令语气,是任务与亲情撕扯的核心台词。
意思是「把它办成、成功做到」,常指困难的事最终做成了。戏里说 Plan A does not work if the people on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off,就是说等我们真把计划A办成时,地球上的人可能已经不在了。
went dark,字面是「暗下去」,用来形容设备或信号突然没了动静。戏里说埃德蒙斯的信号 went dark,就是失联了。
就是「竖大拇指、表示一切正常」。戏里说米勒的站点一直发 thumbs up,意思是她那边一切正常,这也让众人更想去看一看。
是「把格局放大、想得更长远」,语气带点提醒和催促。戏里有人对库珀说 You can't just think about your family. Now you have to think bigger,让他别只想着小家。
