The Christmas Chronicles: Part Two · 2020 — 第 13 / 20 章 · 4'11" · B2

追逐中撕开时间裂口:a tear in the fabric of time

反派炫耀自己的新座驾和杂交坐骑,主角只回一句 They're a long way from cool(离酷还远着呢),又补一句 I'll give you that(这点我承认)。追逐中他们撕开时间:We just opened a tear in the fabric of time(我们刚在时间之布上撕开一道裂口)。想学斗嘴和科幻说法,这段很带感。

发生了什么

追逐中,反派炫耀新座驾和杂交的豺郊狼,主角冷冷一句 They're a long way from cool(离酷还远着呢),又承认 I'll give you that(这点我承认)。双方在雪橇追逐里撕开时间:We just opened a tear in the fabric of time(我们刚在时间之布上撕开一道裂口),那些 wormholes won't stay open for long(虫洞撑不了太久),再不把圣诞精神拉上来,就 We're stuck here forever(永远困在这儿)。他们回到过去的波士顿机场,发现圣诞精神只剩百分之七,还找到一件 out of juice(没电了)的时光装置。想学斗嘴、科幻设定和解释危机,这些台词都很到位。

Ah, you really didn't think I was just gonna disappear, did you?

啊,你不会真以为我会就这么消失吧? 用一个反问把退场改写成威胁:消失的是你们的天真,不是我。结尾的 did you 一挑,挑衅感全出来了。

That's a world without Santa Claus.

那就是一个没有圣诞老人的世界。 不描述战争和混乱,只给一个定义:没有圣诞老人的世界。用缺失的画面代替控诉,反而更让人心凉。

The reindeer won't be able to fly at all. Now, look at them. They're exhausted.

驯鹿就彻底飞不起来了。 把抽象的精神危机落到一个具体后果上:驯鹿飞不起来。代价一旦具体,威胁就不再空泛。

Looks like Belsnickel figured out a rudimentary form of time travel.

看来贝尔斯尼克琢磨出了一种初级的时光旅行。 用冷静的口吻夸对手:不说危险,先承认厉害。佩服的语气藏在 figured out 里,克制反而更显分量。

关于这一章的问题

a tear in the fabric of time 是什么意思?

字面是「时间之布上的一道裂口」,科幻里指时间被撕开、出现了能穿越的缺口。台词里说 we just opened a tear in the fabric of time,就是「我们刚把时间撕开了一道口子」。

be out of juice 是什么意思?

意思是「没电了、没劲了」。台词里说 it's out of juice,就是那台装置电用光了,设备没电、人累瘫都能用。

「这一点我承认」英语怎么说?

I'll give you that。台词里说 I'll give you that,就是「这点算你说得对」,先夸再反驳时很好用。

a long way from 怎么用?

意思是「离……还差得远、远谈不上」。台词里说 They're a long way from cool,就是「它们离酷还差得远」。

这几句适合什么场合?

说科幻设定用 a tear in the fabric of time;嫌东西没电用 be out of juice;承认对方说得对用 I'll give you that;说差距大用 a long way from。
