Linus: Hello, Sabrina. I have a message from David. He won't be able tomake it. He sent me. I'm sorry, you're upset. Of course.
Sabrina: Yes, no, um. I don't know. I'm a little tired. Why didn't he come?
Linus: He wason his way, he had a slight accident. He sat on a champagne flute.
Sabrina: Is he OK?
Linus: He's in the emergency room.
Sabrina: Emergency room!
Linus: It was a sharp flute. Hey, that's a little joke.
Sabrina: Should I drive over to see him?
Linus: He'll be fine.A couple of stitches. You can see him tomorrow.
Sabrina: What's this for?
Linus: Part of the message from David.
Sabrina: They sent you to deal with me, haven't they?
Linus: They?
Sabrina: Like a lawyer in a movie. He goes to the unsuitable waitress, or showgirl, or chauffeur's daughter, and says the family is prepared to offer you a hundred thousand dollars tostay away fromtheir son. "No", she says, "a hundred and fifty thousand." "No."
Linus: Two hundred thousand?
Sabrina: No.
Linus: A million? No self-respecting lawyer would offer less.
Sabrina: No self-respecting waitress would take it.
Linus: Good girl.
Sabrina: I've loved him all my life.
Linus: Have you?
Sabrina: I thought I wasover it.
Linus: Surprise, surprise.
Sabrina: You don't object?
Linus: Object? To you? Look at you.It's as though a lovely breeze has swept through this whole house.
Sabrina: Even though the breeze comes from the general direction of the garage?
Linus: It's the 90s Sabrina.
Sabrina: So they say. They played that the night before I left for Paris.
Linus: They often do play that.
Sabrina: Yeah, he was dancing. Right here, with someone.
Linus: Yeah, he often does do that. And tonight he wanted it to be you. It's all in the family.
Sabrina: I never thought of you as a dancer.
Linus: Crazy about it. Call me BoJangles at the office.
Sabrina: In all those years I never saw you do this - meet a girl here with champagne.
Linus: Never did it before.
Sabrina: You never had to before.
Linus: Is it impossible to believe that I want to dance with the prettiest girl at the party?
Sabrina: Thank you. Yes, it is impossible to believe.
Linus: Then you don't know me. Oh, I almost forgot the rest of the message from David.
Sabrina: Oh!
Linus: Thanks, I needed that.
Sabrina: What am I doing? I should never...
Linus: No, no, no, I apologize.
Sabrina: You have my handprint on your face.
Linus: Maybe it's better if you pick up your messagesin person. You'll see David tomorrow. Goodnight.
妙詞佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. make it
這是一個(gè)常用的短語(yǔ)，表示“及時(shí)到達(dá)，實(shí)現(xiàn)預(yù)定目標(biāo)，做成一件事”等等。例如：We just made it for the movie. 我們正好趕上電影。本段中的 He won't be able to make it.意思就是“他不能來(lái)了?！?/p>
2. on one's way
這是口語(yǔ)里常用的一個(gè)片語(yǔ)，除了表示one one's way to（在去……的路上）的意思外，還可以表示“離開(kāi)”，比如 She is on her way out the door. On your way 還可以單用，是一種命令的口氣，要求別人“走開(kāi)，離開(kāi)”。本段中的 He's on his way. 意思就是“他離開(kāi)了”。
“避開(kāi)，遠(yuǎn)離”的意思。例如：You ought to stay away from me. I have a bad cold and wouldn't want you to catch it. 你該離我遠(yuǎn)點(diǎn)，我感冒很嚴(yán)重，不想傳染給你。
5. Over something / somebody
如果你 over something / somebody，說(shuō)明這件事/這個(gè)人對(duì)你已經(jīng)沒(méi)有影響了。例如：His girlfriend finished with him last year and he was not over her yet. 去年他的女朋友甩了他。他現(xiàn)在還對(duì)她念念不忘。
6. It's as though a lovely breeze has swept through this whole house.
有很多人都認(rèn)為，看電影可以提高我們的口語(yǔ)及聽(tīng)力能力，其實(shí)這種想法在某種層次上來(lái)看是不錯(cuò)的，但是想提醒大家的是，我們學(xué)的是電影中的語(yǔ)言，而劇本的語(yǔ)言可稱得上是文筆較好的作品了。以上面那句話為例，It's as though a lovely breeze has swept through this whole house. （就好像是一陣清風(fēng)拂過(guò)整個(gè)房間。）覺(jué)不覺(jué)得這句話可以用到寫(xiě)作上呢？
7. in person
“親自”的意思。例如：You'd better come here in person. 你最好親自來(lái)。
北京新東方學(xué)校優(yōu)秀英語(yǔ)教師，主教聽(tīng)說(shuō)速成，聽(tīng)說(shuō)讀寫(xiě)，電影聽(tīng)說(shuō)強(qiáng)化等課程，有多年的英語(yǔ)聽(tīng)說(shuō)教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。陳銳老師主修英文專業(yè)，深刻了解英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)的困難所在；并有豐富的口譯經(jīng)驗(yàn)及體會(huì)。通過(guò)多年的經(jīng)驗(yàn)積累，陳銳老師總結(jié)出一套適合中國(guó)學(xué)生自己的漢英學(xué)習(xí)法，更好的結(jié)合漢語(yǔ)來(lái)攻克英文。
Sabrina: Linus.
