这场戏：车库轻生被救醒
第 1 章 · 共 18 章 · 2'05"
萨布丽娜把自己关进车库，发动八辆车想轻生，被回家的莱纳斯发现、背出来救醒。她醒来还被数落 Haven't you ever heard of carbon monoxide?（你难道没听说过一氧化碳吗），又听他一句 It's a good thing Mrs Van Horn asked me to drive her home.（幸好范霍恩太太让我送她回家）。有惊无险时用「幸好」，这段很地道。
「也许再也不会」might never have，其实是句狠话
checking the spark plugs 检查火花塞find out 弄清楚、查明get out of here 赶紧离开这儿might never have 也许再也不会
「幸好」英语说 it's a good thing
passed out 晕过去carbon monoxide 一氧化碳come along 恰好路过、跟着出现a good thing 幸好、多亏
萨布丽娜是拉勒比家司机的女儿。这天她把自己关进车库，发动八辆车、关上门，想用一氧化碳了结自己。幸好莱纳斯送完范霍恩太太回家，发现了她。她嘴上还硬说是 Just checking the spark plugs.（只是检查一下火花塞），其实人已经 pass out（晕过去）；被背出来救醒后，又被 Haven't you ever heard of carbon monoxide?（你难道没听说过一氧化碳吗）问得答不出。莱纳斯还补一句 You might never have disturbed anyone again.（你也许再也不会吵到谁了），最后用 It's a good thing Mrs Van Horn asked me to drive her home.（幸好范霍恩太太让我送她回家）把这场惊吓轻轻带过。想学怎么用一句「幸好」淡化后怕，这些说法日常都用得上。

“So you started all the motors and closed all the doors?”
所以你把所有发动机都发动了，还把门全关上了？
把一连串要命的动作轻描淡写地复述出来，责备里全是后怕。
So you did A and B?
想追问对方一连串举动、又带点不敢相信时用；对长辈或上级这样问会失礼。
So you just did all of that? ／ And you went ahead and did the whole thing?
口语
So you 连读，started all 连起来，句尾疑问上扬。
So you left the door open and went to bed? 所以你就把门开着去睡觉了？
“You might never have disturbed anyone again.”
你差点再也没机会吵到任何人了。
用克制的一句话点破死亡，冷得发凉，也是黑色幽默。
You might never have ... again.
想轻描淡写地点出严重后果、带点黑色幽默时用；真出事时别说。
You might not have gotten another chance. ／ You might never have woken up again.
中性
might never 轻读，have 弱读，again 尾音收住。
You might never have walked again after a fall like that. 那样摔一跤，你可能再也站不起来了。
“Eight cars! One would've done it.”
八辆车！一辆就够要命了。
数字一甩，荒唐和危险同时落地，短促有力。
One would've done it.
想说一件事做一次就够了、何必重复时用；劝人别过量时很好用。
One would have been enough. ／ A single one would've finished the job.
口语
Eight cars 重音在前，would've 缩成 woulda。
One cup of that coffee would've done it. 那咖啡一杯就够劲了。
“What do you suppose would have happened if I hadn't come along?”
你想想，要是我没路过，会发生什么？
不直接说后果，用反问把后怕塞给对方，比骂人更重。
What do you suppose would have happened if ...?
想让对方自己意识到严重后果、又不直接下判断时用；正式场合也能用。
What do you think would've happened if I hadn't shown up? ／ Where would you be if I hadn't come along?
中性
suppose 与 would have 连读，if I hadn't 吞音。
What do you suppose would have happened if we had missed that train? 你想过没有，要是我们没赶上那趟车会怎样？
“You'd think a chauffeur's daughter would know better.”
一个司机的女儿，照理说该懂点事。
一句把身份和失望都摆上桌，客气的句式里藏着最重的训斥。
You'd think someone would know better.
对熟人说「你本该更懂事」时用，带失望；对不熟的人说会得罪人。
You'd think she would know better by now. ／ You would think a pro wouldn't make that mistake.
口语
You'd think 连成一词，chauffeur's 咬清，know better 放慢。
You'd think a doctor would know better than to skip sleep. 一个医生，照理说该知道不能熬夜。
“Haven't you ever heard of carbon monoxide?”
你从没听说过一氧化碳吗？
反问里全是难以置信：这么基本的常识，你竟然不知道。
Haven't you ever heard of ...?
对方犯了常识性错误、你想表达难以置信时用；语气冲，别对上级用。
Have you never heard of it? ／ Didn't anyone ever tell you about that?
口语
Haven't you 连读，ever 轻，carbon monoxide 逐词重读。
Haven't you ever heard of turning off the stove? 你难道没听说过要关炉子吗？

下一章 · 02all in the wrist全靠手腕这场戏：巴黎厨艺课敲鸡蛋就是「一氧化碳」，汽车尾气里的有毒气体，在密闭车库里很容易要命。电影里她就是靠它轻生，所以才会昏过去。
It's a good thing... 后面接一件事就行，比如 It's a good thing Mrs Van Horn asked me to drive her home. 比 lucky 更口语、更常说。
意思接近，都是「晕过去」。pass out 更口语、更随便，日常聊天用得多；faint 稍微书面一点，医生或小说里常见。
这是句反话，也是狠话：意思是如果没人发现，她就已经死了，当然再也不会吵到任何人。用平静语气说最吓人。
