食堂地图介绍塑料姐妹花:queen bee

有人用一张食堂地图,把全校各路人马按座位分门别类。地图上,三个女生被叫作 The Plastics(塑料姐妹花);一句 queen bee(小团体里的女王)点出谁是核心,还说某人的头发 full of secrets(装满秘密)。想用地道英语八卦小圈子里的红人,这两句直接能搬走。

发生了什么

有人用一张食堂地图,给凯蒂讲北岸高中的生态:哪一群人坐哪儿,坐哪儿很关键。地图的重点是三个被叫作 The Plastics(塑料姐妹花)的女生。讲的人说她们是 teen royalty(校园贵族),又拿格雷琴的头发开玩笑说 full of secrets(装满秘密),并把瑞吉娜叫作 queen bee(小团体里的女王)。最后一句是警告:Beware of The Plastics(小心塑料姐妹花)。想用英语形容小圈子里的红人、八卦精和话事人,这一场给足了词。

关于这一章的问题

queen bee 是什么意思?

本意是蜂群里的蜂后,口语里指小团体里说了算的那个女生。这场里有一句 She's the queen bee. 后面接着说另外两个只是她的小跟班,说的就是三人组的核心。

「标准辣妹」英语怎么说?

可以说 regulation hottie。这里的 regulation 不是「规定」,而是「完全符合标准」,所以 regulation hottie 就是挑不出毛病的好看。台词里一句 You're a regulation hottie,意思是「你可是标准的辣妹」。

own it 是「拥有它」吗?

不止是「拥有它」。别人夸你的时候,own it 是让你大方承认、接住这句夸奖,别急着否认。台词里夸完紧接着一句 Own it,就是「认了吧」。

full of secrets 怎么理解?

字面是「装满秘密」。有人说某人的头发之所以那么大,是因为 It's full of secrets,这是拿发量开的玩笑:里面装的不是头发,是全校的八卦。

「小跟班」英语怎么说?

台词里用的是 little workers,字面是「小工人、小伙计」。前面刚说完 queen bee,这里接着说另外两个只是她的小跟班,借蜂群里工蜂围着蜂后的画面,形容人跟着核心人物跑。

「用吃东西发泄情绪」英语怎么说?

eat their feelings。台词列食堂人群时提到 girls who eat their feelings,就是靠吃东西来消化情绪的女生;后面还跟着 girls who don't eat anything,刚好相反。
