-Can I just see who it is? -No.The Social Dilemma · 2020 — 第 5 / 14 章 · 3'03" · B2
晚饭桌上手机被锁一小时,有人一伸手就被挡回去,气氛僵住。一句 It's just not that big a deal(这没什么大不了)刚出口,对面就回 If it's not that big a deal, don't use it for a week(要真没什么大不了,就一周别用)——嘴上轻描淡写,当场变成赌约;想顶回这种敷衍,这两句直接能用。
晚饭吃到一半,手机被锁了一小时,有人一伸手就被拦住。有人想找话说,问一句 what should we talk about(没话找话的开场),话题滑到政治,又冒出一句 It depends on who you ask(那得看问谁)。后来一句 It's just not that big a deal(没什么大不了)刚落地,就有人接话立下赌约:要真没什么大不了,一周别用。手机插上充电时,又有一句 let the record show(请记录在案),把退开的动作说得像法庭声明。这几个说法分别管冷场开场、轻描淡写、半开玩笑地声明。

本章短语
请记录在案;声明一下for the record; let it be noted
有人把手机插上充电,夸张地往后退,嘴里来一句 Let the record show,像在法庭上要求记录自己的动作;这是饭桌玩笑,不是正式声明。
Let the record show that I finished my homework before dinner.请记下,我在晚饭前写完作业了。
没话找话的开场
怪人;疯子(贬义口语)
没什么大不了
快乐与痛苦的平衡
让某人焦虑不安

I locked it for an hour, so just leave it alone.聊某个话题
So, what should we talk about?开车路过
Well, we could talk about the, uh, Extreme Center wackos I drove by today.怪人;疯子(贬义)——熟人吐槽怪人时用,正式场合或当面别用
Well, we could talk about the, uh, Extreme Center wackos I drove by today.don't 的 t 带过,wanna 轻读,别拖长。

-What's wrong with the Extreme Center? -See? He doesn't even get it.取决于
It depends on who you ask.担心某人
I... I'm worried about my kids.带着,凭(知识/经验) 这里不是拿武器,是凭知识经验
Armed with all the knowledge that I have and all of the experience,过去分词短语:Armed with... 是分词状语,意为‘带着这些知识和经验’,不是拿武器。
Armed with all the knowledge that I have and all of the experience,把时间花在手机上
I am fighting my kids about the time that they spend on phones and on the computer.定语从句:that they spend on phones 限定 time,指手机时长。
I am fighting my kids about the time that they spend on phones and on the computer.最多;上限——口语报上限,熟人聊天用,书面少用

Moment of truth.让某人焦虑不安
孩子嫌有人老在妈妈面前说手机问题,把一件小事说成危机;freaking Mom out 带埋怨,意思是别再把妈吓着了。
You keep freaking Mom out about our phones when it's not really a problem.没什么大不了
有人抱怨手机问题被夸大,先用「我懂你」接住对方,再一句 not that big a deal 把事情说小;重复 It's not 是在硬撑。
I get what you're saying. It's just not that big a deal. It's not.that 快说时很轻,重音留给 big 和 deal。
I get what you're saying. It's just not that big a deal. It's not.把某物收起来
Yeah. Yeah, actually, if you can put that thing away for, like, a whole week...成交,接受条件 不是拿到实物交易,是接受条件
-Okay. You got a deal. -[mom] Okay.插上电源
All right, I'm plugging it in.往后退
Let the record show... I'm backing away.计时开始
赌约刚成立,手机被留在桌上;有人用一句 You're on the clock 宣布计时开始,对方回一句「一周」,气氛像比赛开场。
-You're on the clock. -[Ben] One week.重音压在 clock 上,on the 轻轻滑过去。
-You're on the clock. -[Ben] One week.If it's not that big a deal, don't use it for a week.要真没什么大不了,那就一周别用。 把对方的轻描淡写原样推回去,条件句一转就成挑战,短促有力。
I get what you're saying. It's just not that big a deal. It's not.我懂你的意思,只是真没那么严重,真没有。 先接住对方再降级问题,末尾重复 It's not 把嘴硬和心虚都露出来。
Let the record show... I'm backing away.大家都记好了……我可退开了。 拿法庭腔说饭桌小动作,郑重和滑稽撞在一起,画面感极强。
It depends on who you ask.这要看问谁。 一句把‘对错’推回立场,短、圆、可反复用,适合结束争论。
意思是「没什么大不了」,用来把事情往小说、让对方别紧张。台词里有人用它把手机用得多的争论说小,紧接着就被一句「要真没什么大不了,一周别用」顶了回去。
let the record show。台词里是 Let the record show... I'm backing away. 说的人一边声明一边往后退,像是要大家给自己作个证。
不止。它更接近「把某人搞得焦虑不安」。台词里说的是有人老拿手机的事吓妈妈,落点在妈妈的不安,而不是单纯让她不高兴。
on the clock。台词里一句 You're on the clock,紧跟着的回答是 One week,也就是这次计时要持续一周。
是贬义口语,意思是「怪人、疯子」。台词里说话的人用它形容自己开车路过的一群人,语气不客气,正式场合最好别用。
