影片对白

Jaq: Come on, Gus-Gus. Faster!

Gus: What's the hurry, Jaq-Jaq? What's the hurry?

Jaq: Fairy Godmother's here. She's gonna read us the Cinderella story. Shh. Pom, Pom. Come on, Gus!

Fairy Godmother: "Cinderella and the prince lived happily ever after. The end."

Jaq: We missed it?

Mary: Mm-hmm.

Gus: Maybe you could read another one.

Fairy Godmother: Oh, I'm sorry, Gus... but that's the only Cinderella book there is.

Jaq: Yeah, Gus-Gus. You heard her. "The end." That's all.

Gus: Uh, maybe we could make another book.

Mary: We can tell the stories, and make the drawings!

Mice: Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Fairy Godmother: Oh, what an excellent idea.

Jaq: No, no, wait a minute. Who'd wanna read a book made by mice?

Fairy Godmother: Cinderella would read it. And if you made it, I know that she'd love it.

Jaq: But we don't know how to make a book.

Fairy Godmother: Oh, don't worry, dear. I think I can help.

Fairy Godmother: Oh, very nice. Well done, little mice. But something is missing, it's true. Oh, look there. The pages are bare. We need a story from you.

Jaq: Who, us? No, no, we don't know any good stories.

Gus: Wait, wait! How's about "First Day In castle"?

Jaq: Oh, yeah. That is a good one.

Fairy Godmother: I'd love to hear all about it.

妙词佳句,活学活用

1.Come on

Come on 一词在口语中的使用频率太高了,使用的场景以及语调的不同,它所表达的意思也不一样。
例如 :
A:Be serious. 严肃点。
Come on, you must be joking.

B:暗送秋波
She gave me the 'come on'. 就可以译为:她向我表示了她对我的好感 。

C:Hurry up. 快点

D: Please. 请。
Come on, tell me the truth.

此处用的是第三种意思。请大家牢牢掌握这一点。

2.Excellent

看似很简单的词,实际上有些人还会用的不地道,因为在日常生活中excellent这个词除了可以形容心情好之外还可以用来形容任何好的东西。比如:Cindy is an excellent student.

除此之外,在口语中表达“好”或“优秀”的词很多,如:good, great, fine, excellent, outstanding, fantastic, splendid, first-class,fabulous,amazing,marvelous等等。

3. Well done

Well done 有两种意思,一种是“干的好”的意思,和good job的意思一样,另一种是表食物“熟的很透”的意思。看以下几个例子:

A. 我出色的完成了我的工作。我的老板说:Well done.

B. Duty well done brings a sense of pleasure.
任务完成的好给人一种愉快的感觉。

C. The steak is well done.
这牛排煎得很透。

文化面面观

Well done一词看来可真是好用,在美国well done已经是餐具的牌子了,我们来看一下。

 

 

 

Cooking is a joy (乐趣) to some. To others, it's drudgery1 (苦差事). Regardless of how your view it, you'll find that a well planned, professionally installed cooking center makes the job easier and more enjoyable.

Before confronting2 the array3 of cooking equipment available, determine (决定) which type of energy you prefer - gas or electric. Gas appliances heat and cool quickly. The flame is visible and easy to control. Electric cooking provides low even heat.

Choosing an energy source is only the beginning. Now you must think about the type of cooking you do and then select from the many options available.
