点破内鬼劝老板换路子:an inside job

劫案搞砸,老板把莫吉叫来问话,迈克却开口:Can I speak candidly, boss?(老板,我能直说吗)。他判定 It's gotta be an inside job(肯定是内部有人),又补一句 we need a different approach(得换条路子)。老板听完认了:I shouldn't have got you involved(我不该把你卷进来)。想学委婉又坚定地进谏,看这段。

发生了什么

一票劫案搞砸后,老板把莫吉叫来问话,问他想怎么办,随后一句 Don't want you to do anything, Moggy(什么都别干,莫吉)把话压住。迈克站出来,先问 Can I speak candidly, boss?(老板,我能直说吗),接着劝 I don't think we should do this again(我觉得不该再这样干),再说 we need a different approach(我们得换条路子):It's gotta be an inside job(肯定是内部有人)。老板承认 You're right, Mike(你说得对,迈克),说 I shouldn't have got you involved(我不该把你卷进来),要回伦敦待一阵。speak candidly 是直说、坦白讲;an inside job 指内部人策划的案子;a different approach 就是换个做法。职场里想给上司提逆耳建议,这几句很实用。

本章全部批注

44 句台词里标了 34 处

短语 · A2pass someone something

把…递给我

Pass me the water.
俚语 · B2shitshow

一团糟、乱成一锅粥(粗俗)——shitshow 形容混乱失控的局面,带脏字,语气粗;熟人之间吐槽可以用,正式场合、对上级或客户要换 mess 之类的词。

It's a shitshow.
短语 · B1kids involved

牵扯到孩子

There's kids involved.
短语 · B1have a feeling (that) ...

有种预感

Got a feeling I'm gonna be cleaning up all day.
短语 · B1clean up

收拾残局、善后

Got a feeling I'm gonna be cleaning up all day.
发音gonna

gonna 是 going to 的弱读缩合,两个词并成一个,快读时几乎听不出 to。

Got a feeling I'm gonna be cleaning up all day.
短语 · A2here you go

给你、拿好

Here you go, sweetheart.
俚语 · B1sweetheart

亲爱的(亲昵称呼)——sweetheart 可用来称呼爱人,也可像这里一样对小孩子或亲近的人表示安抚;对陌生异性或正式场合说会显得轻浮无礼。

Here you go, sweetheart.
短语 · B1there's a good girl

真是个好姑娘(哄人)

There's a good girl.
短语 · B2in the pot

在公账里、凑的总数里

How much is in the pot?
短语 · A2what do you think

两百五十万

Looks like there's two and a half mil, which they confessed to.
短语 · B2confess to something

供认了这件事

Looks like there's two and a half mil, which they confessed to.
语法 · B2which they confessed to

which 引导的定语从句:two and a half mil which they confessed to 里 which 回指前面那笔钱,构成定语从句。介词 to 留在句末,是口语里常见的位置,比 to which 自然得多。

Looks like there's two and a half mil, which they confessed to.
发音two and a

two 的尾音直接滑上 and,and 只留一个轻 n,常连成 two-na,a 再轻轻滑进 half mil。

Looks like there's two and a half mil, which they confessed to.
短语 · B1want someone to do something

想让我去做

what do you want me to do?
发音Don't

Don t 末尾的 t 在连贯口语里常被吞掉,只剩 don 的音,后面直接接下一个词。

Don't want you to do anything, Moggy.
短语 · A2old enough

够年纪了

Not old enough.
俚语 · B1em

他们(口语弱读)——em 是代词的弱读形式,说话快时把开头的音吞掉,街头、蓝领对白里常见;书面和正式场合要用完整形式。

Let 'em go.
短语 · B2speak candidly

直说、坦白讲

莫吉要劝老板收手,先请求允许自己把话说直,好给下面那些逆耳的话留个余地。

Can I speak candidly, boss?
语法 · B2I don't think

否定前移:I don t think we should do this again 把否定放在 think 上,而不是从句里。字面是「我不认为」,实际意思是「我觉得不该」,语气比直接说 we shouldn't 委婉,留了余地。

I don't think we should do this again.
短语 · C1in one's right mind

有人劝老板冷静,说他现在根本不在正常状态。

You're not in your right mind just now, and

内部人策划的案子

主角分析运钞车被抢,断定没有内部接应做不到。

It's gotta be an inside job.
语法 · B2shouldn't have got

shouldn't have done:I shouldn t have got you involved 用 shouldn't have 加过去分词,表示对已经发生的事后悔、自责,等于「我当初不该」。它把责任落在说话人自己身上,语气是反思而非指责。

I shouldn't have got you involved.
短语 · A2for a while

一阵子、一段时间

I'm gonna go back to London for a while.

看懂「点破内鬼劝老板换路子」

这一章能学到

  • 学会用 a different approach 提方案
  • 见到 smash and grab 知道是砸抢
  • 听懂 inside job 是内应作案
  • 会用 in your right mind 说不清醒

发音重点

  • gonna — gonna 是 going to 的弱读缩合,两个词并成一个,快读时几乎听不出 to。
  • two and a — two 的尾音直接滑上 and,and 只留一个轻 n,常连成 two-na,a 再轻轻滑进 half mil。
  • Don't — Don t 末尾的 t 在连贯口语里常被吞掉,只剩 don 的音,后面直接接下一个词。
It's gotta be an inside job.

这肯定是内部人干的。 一句话把疑点从外部转回自己人:没有内应,这事办不成。它既是结论,也是一次无声的排查。

we need a different approach.

我们得换个做法了。 承认现有路子走不通,又不否定过去的努力。一句话把方向掉头,留住了要继续往前走的意思。

I shouldn't have got you involved.

我不该把你牵扯进来。 道歉里最重的一种:不是为结果道歉,而是为「把你拉进来」这个决定道歉。责任认得干净。

I don't think we should do this again.

我觉得咱们不该再这么干了。 用「我觉得我们不该」开头,把反对说得不刺人:不是命令你别做,而是把两个人绑进同一个决定里。劝谏时最稳的句式。

关于这一章的问题

an inside job 是什么意思?

指「内部人策划的案子」,也就是有内鬼里应外合。戏里迈克判断这票劫案不是外人能干成的,所以一定是内部有人。

「我能直说吗」英语怎么说?

可以说 Can I speak candidly? 或 Can I be frank? 想在提意见前先打个招呼、给对方心理准备时,这两句都很常用,语气也很得体。

in your right mind 是什么意思?

意思是「神志清醒、理智正常」,常用在否定句里,比如 You're not in your right mind,就是「你这会儿不清醒」,劝人先冷静。

smash and grab 是什么作案方式?

指砸开橱窗或车门、抢了就跑的粗暴作案,讲究快、不讲技术。戏里用它说明那伙人只擅长这种小打小闹,干不了大案。

a different approach 怎么用?

意思是「换个做法、另一条路子」。开会时想否定现有方案又不想太冲,可以说 We need a different approach,比直接说 your idea is wrong 委婉。
