生日宴谈富克斯间谍案:A man of conviction

有人提起富克斯:他被安排进洛斯阿拉莫斯,was spying for the Soviets the whole time(一直在为苏联当间谍)。真相曝光后,FBI stepped up surveillance(加强监视),窃听电话、跟踪、翻垃圾,可他 never stopped speaking his mind(从没停下直言)。一句 A man of conviction(一个有信念的人)把这段收得很唏嘘。想学讲间谍案和评价一个人,这段很典型。

发生了什么

这是《奥本海默》里聚会上众人谈起富克斯的一段。开头还有一句 I miss Richard more than I can bear(我想他想得受不了),另一句 Part of me's glad he didn't live to see where this is all going(我有点庆幸他没活着看到这一切会走向哪里)。话题转到富克斯:这个被安排进洛斯阿拉莫斯内爆团队的人,was spying for the Soviets the whole time(一直在为苏联当间谍)。真相曝光后,FBI stepped up surveillance(加强监视),电话被窃听、被跟踪、连垃圾都被翻,可他 never stopped speaking his mind(从没停下直言)。最后一句 A man of conviction(一个有信念的人),语气复杂——And maybe he thought fame could actually protect him(也许他觉得名声真能护住他)。想学谈旧友和讲间谍案,这段很集中。

27 句台词里标了 26 处

短语 · B2more than one can bear

超出我能承受的范围

I miss Richard more than I can bear.
语法 · B2more than I can bear

比较结构 more than:more than 加一个完整从句,表示程度已经超过说话人所能承受的极限;这里把思念写到失控的边缘,语气很重。

I miss Richard more than I can bear.
发音than I can bear

than 末尾的 n 和 I 直接连读,can 又常弱读,整句的重心落在最后的 bear 上。

I miss Richard more than I can bear.

活到亲眼看见、经历到

Part of me's glad he didn't live to see where this is all going.

俚语 · C1gloat

幸灾乐祸、为别人的倒霉暗自得意——动词,带明显贬义,指因为别人的失败而得意,后面常接介词短语说明对什么事得意;当面说某人会显得指责。

语法 · B2must have been a blow

情态动词表推测:情态动词后接完成式,表示对已经发生的事作出很有把握的推测;刘易斯嘴上同情,句子却藏着看戏的意味。

Well, I think it must have been a blow for you.
