这场戏：酒吧搭讪翻车记
第 11 章 · 共 17 章 · 2'54"
酒吧里，一个姑娘滔滔不绝讲自己的演员梦，说自己有 star quality（明星气质），还得意地补一句 I can cry on cue（说哭就能哭）。另一边，有人搭讪受挫，兄弟拍拍他说 Don't sweat it（别往心里去）。想聊梦想、想安慰朋友别上火，这些说法都很地道。
搭讪问「你开的是什么车」：What do you drive
What do you drive 你开的是什么车What kind of 哪一种、什么样的all the time 总是、一直如此

酒吧里，有人上前搭讪，开口就问人家「你开什么车」，女孩报出车型后，他撂下一句 the same old shit（翻来覆去的老一套烂事），把这种无聊套路吐槽了个干净。另一桌，一个姑娘认真讲自己的演员梦：从小有 star quality（明星气质），在幼儿园被老师一句「你太爱演了」点醒，从此认定要当演员，还自信地说 I can cry on cue（说哭就能哭）。散场前，有人把刚要到手的女孩电话当场撕了，朋友觉得太 cold（冷血），他倒不在意。想学搭讪、自夸和损人的说法，这场戏给得很足。
A1–C2 是欧标等级。点一个等级后，比它高的卡片会变淡，播放到那里不会自动暂停。
“See what I mean? It's the same old shit all the time.”
明白我意思了吧？翻来覆去就是这一套破玩意儿。
搭讪刚翻车就一句总结，自嘲里夹着火气，像极了朋友间的吐槽。
the same old ... all the time
跟熟人抱怨同一件破事反复发生时用；正式场合和对长辈别说。
It's the same old thing every time. ／ Same old story, all the time.
口语
same old 连读，all the time 三个词轻快带过。
It's the same old rush all the time at this office. 这办公室啊，天天都是同一通手忙脚乱。
“My whole life people have told me I have this star quality.”
我这辈子一直有人说我身上有明星气质。
把一句自夸说得像回忆录开头，又真又好笑，后面果然有反转。
My whole life people have told me ...
半认真半自嘲地讲别人怎么评价自己时用；自吹过头会招人烦。
Everyone has always said I have star quality. ／ People keep telling me I have that star quality.
中性
whole life 连读，star quality 两个重音要顶出来。
My whole life people have told me I should be a teacher. 我这辈子一直有人说我该去当老师。
“You asked a girl for her number and you tore it up.”
你跟人要了电话，转头就把纸撕了。
拿两个动作一前一后摆出来，不骂人，却把荒唐事说得清清楚楚。
You did A and you did B.
当面指出对方自相矛盾的行为时用；语气重，别对不熟的人用。
You got her number and then ripped it up. ／ You asked for the number just to tear it up.
口语
asked a 连读，tore it up 三个词连成一气。
You booked the flight and then you canceled it. 你订了机票，转头又给退了。
“Kind of a dick move, if you ask me.”
要我说，这事挺缺德的。
一句轻描淡写的评语，不吵不闹就把对方的行为定了性，冷得刚好。
Kind of a ... move, if you ask me.
对朋友或熟人的行为下不客气的评语时能用；对上级或长辈说会直接冒犯，别用。
That was a pretty low move, if you ask me. ／ Not a great move, honestly.
口语
Kind of a 连读，dick move 重读，if you ask me 放轻收尾。
Kind of a cheap move, if you ask me. 要我说，这招挺下作的。
My whole life people have told me I have this star quality. - Is that right? - Well, I don't know if it's true. But, well, this one time- this is really stupid- - but in kindergarten, you know- - It's all right. You know how you have those little crushes? I had this crush on this guy Lee. He was really cute, and he wore Lee Jeans. They said "Lee." Anyway, I really liked him. And then one day he told me I was ugly. I started crying, and my teacher was, like... "Deidre, you are so emotional. You are so dramatic. You should be an actress!" It was, like, that's it! I should be an actress. And you know what? I can cry on cue. - Yeah! Well, totally. - Uh-huh. That's really been sort of my thing, you know. It got me into Juilliard. And the agent said to me afterwards that he thought... he really was reminded by me... of Tina Yothers, you know, from Family Ties. And he said I looked just like her.
我这辈子一直有人说我身上有明星气质。 ——是吗？——我也不知道这是不是真的。 不过，呃，有一次——这事特别傻——就是上幼儿园那会儿，你知道——没事，你接着说。 你知道小时候那种小心动吧？我当时就暗恋一个叫李的男生。 他特别帅，还穿李牌的牛仔裤，裤子上就印着「李」。 反正我特别喜欢他。结果有一天他说我丑。 我当场就哭了，老师就说…… 「迪尔德丽，你也太情绪化了，也太爱演了。 你应该去当演员！」 我当时就想，对啊！我应该去当演员。 你知道吗？我说哭就能哭。 ——对！那当然。——嗯。 这一直算是我的拿手好戏，你知道。就靠这个我进了茱莉亚。 后来那个经纪人跟我说，他觉得…… 他说我让他特别想起…… 蒂娜·约瑟斯，你知道，《家族的诞生》里那个。 他还说我长得跟她一模一样。
下一章 · 12money超酷这场戏：用大熊比喻给人打气意思是「说哭就能哭」，cue 是「提示信号」，演员一给信号就能落泪。原句 I can cry on cue，是姑娘在炫耀自己的表演本事。
don't sweat it。原句 Don't sweat it, Mike，就是「别放在心上，迈克」；sweat 在这里不是「出汗」，是「着急上火」。
a lay-up，来自篮球术语，指轻松得分，引申为「小菜一碟、稳了」。原句 It's gonna be a lay-up，就是「这一局稳了」。
意思是「将就、接受现状」，多用在劝人别太挑剔。原句 you can't roll with that，就是「这你可不能将就」。
本来是「商务舱」，戏里拿来调侃人的身材，说对方是「高档货」，高级得挤不进经济舱。原句 She's business class 就是这个玩笑。
