8. 英文電影經典對話(英文的)
電影《綠色奇跡》裡面的一段對話,是我最喜歡的....這一段講的是一個善良、純真、有著超自然力量並且處處幫助別人不計回報的死刑犯「約翰」(他是被冤枉的)將要處決之時與監獄主管「保羅」的一段對話(監獄主管知道他是無罪的) Paul Edgecomb: What do you want me to do John? I'll do it. You want me to let you walk out of here and see how far you get?
保羅:約翰你想讓我做什麼我都會做。你想讓我放你離開這里,看看你能走到多遠嗎?
John Coffey: Now why would you want to do a foolish thing like that?
約翰:為什麼你會想做那麼愚蠢的事?Paul Edgecomb: When I die and I stand before God awaiting judgment and he asks me why I let one of HIS miracles die, what am I gonna say, that it was my job?
保羅:當我死了,我站在上帝面前等候審判,他問我為什麼讓他的奇跡死去,我該說什麼,那是我的工作?John Coffey: You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done. I know you hurtin' and worryin', I can feel it on you, but you oughta quit on it now. Because I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?
約翰:你告訴上帝是出於善意。我知道你傷心焦慮,我可以感覺到,但你現在必須停止。因為我希望結束。真的,我累了。厭倦在路上,像雨中孤獨的麻雀。厭倦沒有夥伴陪伴,或者告訴我何去何從,或者為什麼。我厭倦了人們醜陋的彼此相待,厭倦了每天感到和聽到的傷痛。太多了。它一直就像我腦袋裡的玻璃碴。你能理解嗎?Paul Edgecomb: Yes, John. I think I can.
保羅:是的,約翰,我想我能。1、《耶穌受難記》里的一段: http://ke..com/view/339082.htmJesus: You have heard it said you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. For if you love only those who love you, what reward is there in that?
耶穌:你聽說過應該愛自己的鄰居而仇恨自己的敵人。但我告訴你,愛你的敵人並為迫害你的人祈禱。因為如果你只愛愛你的人,那麼會有什麼報答?
2、《海上鋼琴師》里的一段: http://ke..com/view/21055.htm「Land? Land is a ship too big for me. It's a woman too beautiful; it's a voyage too long, a perfume too strong. It's a music I don't know how to make. I could never get off this ship. At best, I can step off my life. After all, I don't exist for anyone.
You're an exception, Max, you're the only one who knows I'm here. You're a minority, and you better get used to it.
Forgive me, my friend, but I'm not getting off.」
「陸地?陸地對我來說是一艘太大的船,一個太漂亮的女人,一段太長的旅行,一瓶太刺鼻的香水,一種我不會創作的音樂。我永遠無法放棄這艘船,不過幸好,我可以放棄我的生命。反正沒人記得我存在過,而你是例外,max,你是唯一一個知道我在這里的人。你是唯一一個,而且你最好習慣如此。原諒我,朋友,我不會下船的。」
我可以在有限的鋼琴鍵中創造出無限的旋律,但我無法在無限的城市中,無盡的街道間找到屬於我的空間。
這是個秘密,秘密是不應該被公開的
令我恐懼的不是我所見,而是我所未見。3、《肖申克的救贖》中的一段: http://ke..com/view/18388.htmRed: There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then, a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can』t. That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. I got to live with that. Rehabilitated? It's just a bullshit word. So you go on and stump your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth,I don't give a shit.
Red:我無時無刻不對自己的所作所為深感內疚,這不是因為我在這里(監獄),也不是討好你們(假釋官)。回首曾經走過的彎路,我多麼想對那個犯下重罪的愚蠢的年輕人說些什麼,告訴他我現在的感受,告訴他還可以有其他的方式解決問題。可是,我做不到了.那個年輕人早已淹沒在歲月的長河裡,只留下一個老人孤獨地面對過去。重新做人?騙人罷了!小子,別再浪費我的時間了,蓋你的章吧,說實話,我不在乎。
檢舉 回答人的補充 2010-02-02 14:41 《暮光之城》中的一段對白: http://ke..com/view/1738736.htmIsabella Swan: [to Edward] I know what you are. You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change colour and you never eat or come out into the sun.
Edward Cullen:"Say it out loud. Say it. "Isabella Swan: ...Vampire. "貝拉:我知道你是什麼了。你的速度飛快,而且強而有力。你的皮膚蒼白而且冰冷。你的眼睛會變色,有時你的聲音像是來自另個時空的。你從來不吃不喝,你也從不出現在陽光下。愛德華:「大聲的說出來。說出!」伊莎貝拉:「……吸血鬼。」
9. 電影里的英語日常生活用語
1. It's not like that. 不是那樣的。
It's not like that.這句話是用來辟謠的。當別人誤會了一件事的來龍去脈,你就可以跟他說It's not like that.「不是那樣的。」當然隨著語氣及情境的不同,It's not like that.這句話也有可能是你用來硬拗的藉口。
2. There is nothing good playing. 沒好電影可看。
這里的There's nothing good playing.是接著問句而來的,指的是「沒有好電影可看。」同樣的,若是電視上沒有好節目可看,你就可以說There's nothing good on TV.
3. I've gotten carried away. 我扯太遠了。
get carried away字面上的意思是「被帶走了」,那麼被帶走的是什麼呢?就是心思。當你或是他人說話的時候離了題,偏離主旨扯遠了。你就可以用上這個表達法I've / You've gotten carried away.
4. Good thing... 還好,幸好…
在美語當中若要表達中文里「還好,幸好…」的語氣,你就可以用Good thing...做開頭。這個句型非常簡單又好用,你只要在Good thing後面加上完整的句子就可以。
5. I don't believe you're bringing this up. 你現在提這件事真是豈有此理。
bring something up是指「提到(某件事)」。當然情況會有正反兩面。你若沒想到對方會提起這件事討罵,你可以說I don't believe you're bringing this up.而反過來說,若你很高興對方主動提起了一件事,你也可以用這個片語自然說出I am glad you are bringing this up.
6. spy on... 跟監(某人)
spy這個字就是「間諜」。當動詞用的意思自然就是「做間諜做的事」,也就是「監視,跟蹤」之意。當你要去監視跟蹤某人,美語中就說成spy on someone。
7. There's no other way of saying it.沒有別種說法。
有時候不管你再怎麼轉、再怎麼拗,也沒有辦法更婉轉或是避開一些絕對會出現的字,這時候你就可以用上There's no other way of saying it.這句話,來表達自己避無可避的為難,因為「沒有別種說法。」
8. That will not always be the case. 情況不會永遠是這樣。
case這個字有「情況」的意思,That will be the case.就是指「情況就會是這樣了。」
但是你若覺得現在的情況只會是暫時,不會長久,你就可以反過來說That will not always be the case.「情況不會永遠是這樣。」
9. She is coming on to you. 她對你有意思。
She is coming on to you.這句話是用在兩性的關繫上,意思是「她對你投懷送抱。」也就是形容某人對某人有意思的情況,這個句型男女兩性都適用;同樣的情況,你也可以說She is making a pass at you.「她對你眉來眼去的。」這兩種說法都很生動,而且最棒的是沒有新單字,贊!
10. I was being polite.我這是在說客氣話。 polite這個字,我們在學校學的意思是「有禮貌的」。當然你若要說一個人有禮貌,你可以說He is polite.或是He has good manners.不過I was being polite.這句話是指「我這是在說客氣話。」使用的情境比較趨近於客套而不傷和氣的出發點,與「做作」artificial (a.)又不一樣了。
11. stand someone up 放(某人)鴿子
stand someone up這個片語,大家若是第一次看到,想必多半是滿頭霧水,怎麼單字全都認識,意思卻完全猜不出來。其實stand someone up的意思就是「放(某人)鴿子」,這么簡單又實用的句子,可得趕快記起來。
12. So that explains it. 原來如此。
