为随性错过面试:good for the soul

多姆劝雅丝别惦记末班车,一句 sometimes you just gotta say, "I'ma see what happens"(有时候就得说「看它会怎样」),还说 It's good for the soul(对心灵有好处)。结果雅丝在酒吧接到面试电话,硬要 reschedule(改期),对方说今天就定人,她就这么错过了戏服设计师的机会。想学随性和代价,这段很真实。

发生了什么

多姆和雅丝决定再去喝一杯。雅丝担心赶不上末班车,抱怨睡夜班车和打车都得遭罪,多姆却劝她别计划、balls to the wall(豁出去)、go where the breeze takes you(风吹到哪跟到哪),还说 It's good for the soul(对心灵有好处)。在酒吧,雅丝接到剧组戏服设计师的电话,对方要把面试 shift you back half an hour(往后挪半小时),她说 That actually doesn't work for me(那个时间不行),还问 Is it cool if I reschedule(我改期行吗),可人家想今天就定,她就这么放弃了机会。两人接着聊交友软件和小学情人节,最后多姆催她讲分手故事。

本章全部批注

46 句台词里标了 31 处

短语 · A2go get a drink

去喝一杯

We should go get a drink.
短语 · B1make someone miss something

让你错过末班车

I'll make you miss your last train today.
发音last train

last train 连读时 last 末尾的音接上 train,听起来像 las-train,中间不断。

I'll make you miss your last train today.
语法 · B2if you're havin' a good time, you won't realise

if 条件句配将来时:if 从句用现在进行时描述当下的状态,主句用 won't 加动词说将来的结果:只要你正开心,就察觉不到时间。条件在前、结果在后,是一句轻巧的劝人别赶车。

- Mm-hmm. - [both chuckle] No, but seriously, I can't. [sighs] But if you're havin' a good time, you won't realise.
发音won't realise

won't realise 里 won't 末尾的音几乎被吞掉,realise 开头很轻,听起来像 won-realise。

- Mm-hmm. - [both chuckle] No, but seriously, I can't. [sighs] But if you're havin' a good time, you won't realise.
短语 · B2lucky enough to do something

运气好到能熬过那关

短语 · C1balls to the wall

豁出去、全力以赴

亚斯劝多姆别老想着赶末班车,偶尔就该豁出去、不做计划,跟着感觉走。

Like, fuck it. No plannin', balls to the wall, just go where the breeze takes you.
短语 · C1go where the breeze takes you

随遇而安、风吹到哪跟到哪

Like, fuck it. No plannin', balls to the wall, just go where the breeze takes you.
发音breeze takes you

breeze takes you 里 breeze 末尾的音接上 takes,takes 又连上 you,整串不停顿。

Like, fuck it. No plannin', balls to the wall, just go where the breeze takes you.
俚语 · C1balls to the wall

豁出去、拼到极限——balls to the wall 是粗俗口语,形容不顾一切地冲。只适合熟人之间说,正式场合换成更中性的说法更得体。

Like, fuck it. No plannin', balls to the wall, just go where the breeze takes you.
俚语 · B2fuck it

去他妈的、不管了——fuck it 是脏话,表示放弃顾虑、豁出去。只能对熟人私下说,职场和长辈面前绝不能用。

Like, fuck it. No plannin', balls to the wall, just go where the breeze takes you.
短语 · B2good for the soul

对心灵有好处、值得去做

雅丝劝多姆别总按计划来,说偶尔随性一次对心灵有好处,信我。

Oh, wait, let me guess.
短语 · B1get cards

一张贺卡都没收到

Little Dom didn't get any cards.
语法 · B2who had pubes at nine and would punch people in the nuts for fun

who 定语从句:who 引导的从句补充说明小学里那个男生:九岁就发育,还爱打人下体取乐。would 在这里表示过去反复发生的习惯,把一段校园记忆说得又具体又好笑。

- No. But you know who did? - [chuckles] Lewis Younge, who had pubes at nine and would punch people in the nuts for fun.
语法 · B2only as good as their profile pic

as...as 比较:as good as 表示程度相等,前面再加 only,就把它压成最低标准:一个人现在只值一张头像。比较结构在这里不是在夸,是在下判断,句尾那句 profile pic 让它显得很冷。

And now, everyone's only as good as their profile pic.
短语 · B1still haven't done something

你还没告诉我

Oh! You still haven't told me your break-up story.
短语 · B2not that deep

没那么深刻

Uh, it really isn't that deep.
短语 · B2not look back

头也不回

No, no. You broke up with him and didn't look back.
俚语 · B2iconic

太传奇、太有代表性——iconic 原指偶像级,网络口语里夸某人某做法很酷很有态度。年轻人之间常用,正式文章里少用。

That's iconic.

看懂「为随性错过面试」

这一章能学到

  • 学会用 doesn't work for me 拒约
  • reschedule 可以把拒绝说软
  • balls to the wall 是豁出去
  • iconic 常用来夸干脆的动作
  • 听懂关键短语在本场的真实语气

发音重点

  • last train — last train 连读时 last 末尾的音接上 train,听起来像 las-train,中间不断。
  • won't realise — won't realise 里 won't 末尾的音几乎被吞掉,realise 开头很轻,听起来像 won-realise。
  • breeze takes you — breeze takes you 里 breeze 末尾的音接上 takes,takes 又连上 you,整串不停顿。
It's good for the soul, trust.

对心灵有好处,信我。 把一次随性说成精神营养,用最轻的话给人松绑。它不保证结果,只承诺过程值得,很适合在别人犹豫要不要破例时推一把。

And now, everyone's only as good as their profile pic.

现在人人都只值一张头像。 把社交时代最刺人的事实压成一句:你这个人,被压缩成一张照片。它冷静、刻薄,又让人无法反驳,聊网络与自我呈现时特别好用。

It's Valentine's Day at primary school all over again.

又变回小学情人节那一套了。 用一段童年记忆解释成年人的社交焦虑:换了个软件,心事还是一样。它把怀旧和自嘲绑在一起,谁听了都能对上号。

Like, fuck it. No plannin', balls to the wall, just go where the breeze takes you.

就像,管它呢。不做计划,全力以赴,随风去吧。 三句一气的洒脱宣言,把冲动和自由说得热血又押韵,很适合当说走就走的开场白。

关于这一章的问题

good for the soul 是什么意思?

指对心灵有好处、值得去做,常用来劝人做点不图实际好处的事。片里多姆用它劝雅丝别老算计,随性一次。

balls to the wall 是什么说法?

是粗口的俚语,指豁出去、拼到底。片里多姆劝雅丝别计划,放手去做,用的就是这句。

「改期行吗」英语怎么说?

可以说 Is it cool if I reschedule,语气随意。片里雅丝面试时间冲突,想改期,就是这么问的。

reschedule 和 postpone 一样吗?

都指改时间,reschedule 是重新约个时间,postpone 更强调推迟。片里雅丝面的是改约面试时间。

iconic 在这里是什么意思?

指绝了、太有代表性了,多用于夸人或事很有风格。片里多姆夸雅丝甩了前任头也不回,是这么形容的。
