阳光小美女经典台词 【语言】《阳光小美女》经典台词Memorable Lines in Little

上周举办的第十一期南航英语俱乐部放映了电影《阳光小美女》（Little Miss Sunshine）。《阳光小美女》是一部借助孩子敲开观众心灵之窗的家庭悲喜剧。虽然影片故事并不阳光，但是亲情的温暖让人感到爱意浓浓。每个人身上都有说不尽的烦恼和压力，去能坚持带着奥利芙朝她的梦想前进。剧中人物性格鲜明，台词也是十分精彩。旧书不厌百回读，让我们再来回味下剧中的台词吧！

SCENE 1

这一段是爸爸Richard和舅舅Frank思想第一次正面交锋。一个整天叫卖成功学的人跟一个心情抑郁，自杀未遂（suicide attempt）的人可谓三观大不相同。他们的对话也是极尽讽刺之能事，显得妙趣横生。

Richard:Sarcasm is the refuge of losers.

理查德：讽刺是失败者的避难所。

Frank: It is?Really?

弗兰克：是吗？真的？

Richard:Sarcasm is losers trying to bring winners down to their level.

理查德：失败者试图用讽刺把成功者拉到跟他们一样的水平线。

Frank: Wow,Richard, you've really opened my eyesto what a loser I am. How much do I owe you for those pearls of wisdom?

弗兰克：哇，理查德，你真是让我醍醐灌顶，让我意识到自己有多失败。为你的金玉良言，我该付你多少钱？

Richard: Oh,that ones on the house.

理查德：啊，算我请客了。

1. open one's eyes意为“大开眼界；看清事实”。

e.g. The visitto your company really opened my eyes. 这次到你们公司的参观真是令人大开眼界。

2. on the house意为“免费地；由公家或老板付钱”，在美国俚语中表示“主人开销的，免费的”。

e.g. This hotel serves anafternoon tea that's on the house. 酒店提供免费下午茶。

SCENE 2

临睡前，奥利芙还在为接下来的比赛辗转反侧。一向为老不尊的爷爷，面对可爱天真的奥利芙，内心也柔软到了极点。

Grandpa: Youknow what a loser is? A real loser issomebody that is so afraid of not winning that they don't even try.

爷爷：你知道什么是失败者吗？一个真正的失败者是那些特别害怕赢不了以至于不敢去尝试的人。

Olive: Am Ipretty?

奥利芙：我漂亮吗？

Grandpa: Olive,you are the most beautiful girl in the whole world.

祖父：奥利芙，你是全世界最美的女孩。

Olive: Nah, you are just saying that.

奥利芙：没有，你也只是这样说说。

Grandpa: No. Iam not. I'm madly loving with you. And it's not because of your brains or yourpersonality. It's because you're beautiful, inside and out.

祖父：不，我是认真的。我爱死你了，不光是因为你聪明伶俐有个性，更是因为你美，从外表到内心的美。

1. “A real loser is somebody that is so afraidof not winning that they don't even try.” 爷爷的这句话讲给小奥利芙，也是讲给我们观众听的。这么励志的话语简直可以贴在床头洗手间，早晚吟诵。

2. Nah 这里表示"no"，you're just saying that 的意思是"你不过是说说罢了"，这可是一句很实用的口语，赶紧记下来哦！

e.g. “You’re justsaying that. Actually, it’s old-fashioned.” 你也就说说罢了，其实它已经很落伍了。

SCENE 3

影片最后高潮戏到来之前，哥哥道恩得知自己是色盲，因而不可能报考空军学院。绝望中，他打破了沉默。他对舅舅弗兰克说，真希望一觉睡到18岁，跳过烦人的高中时代。弗兰克没有马上劝导他，而是说起自己研究了一辈子的普鲁斯特。

Dwayne: I wish I could just sleep until I waseighteen and skip all this crap, high school and everything, just skip it.

道恩：有时我倒想可以一觉睡过去，睡到18岁，跳过那些没用的，高中，统统都跳过去。

Frank: Do youknow who Marcel Proust is?

弗兰克：你知道马塞尔·普鲁斯特吗？

Dwayne: He'sthe guy you teach?

道恩：你教书讲的那个人？

Frank: Yeah.French writer. Total loser. Never had a real job. Unrequited love affairs. Gay.Spent 20 years writing a book almost no one reads. But he's also probably thegreatest writer since Shakespeare. Anyway, he uh... he gets down to the end ofhis life, and he looks back and decides that all those years he suffered, Thosewere the best years of his life, 'cause they made him who he was. All thoseyears he was happy? You know, total waste. Didn't learn a thing. So, if yousleep until you're 18... Ah, think of the suffering you're gonna miss. I meanhigh school? High school-those are your prime suffering years. You don't getbetter suffering than that.

弗兰克：没错。法国作家，彻头彻脑的失败者。从没有过一份真正的工作。得不到回报的单相思，同性恋。花了二十年来写一本书，几乎没有人读。但他也可能是莎士比亚之后最伟大的作家。不管怎样，到了生命的最后时刻他回首往事，审视从前所有痛苦的时光，觉得痛苦的日子才是他生命中最好的日子，因为那些日子塑造了他。那些开心的年头呢？你知道啦，彻底浪费了，什么都没学到。所以，如果你一觉睡到十八岁的话，啊，想想你该错过多少痛苦啊！我是说，高中可是大好的痛苦时光，你再也找不到更难忍受的日子了。

Dwayne: Youknow what? F**k beauty contests. Life isone f**king beauty contest after another. You know, school, then college,then work, f**k that. And f**k the air force academy. If I wanna fly, I'll find a way to fly. You do what you love, and f**kthe rest.

道恩：你知道吗？去他的选美比赛。生活就是一场接一场的选美比赛。上学，大学，工作，去他的。去他的空军学院。如果我想飞，总会有办法。做你想做的，不管其他的。

Frank: I'mglad you're talking again, Dwayne. You're not nearly as stupid as you look.

弗兰克：很高兴你又开始讲话了，道恩。你不像你看起来的那么傻。

1. “Life isone f**king beauty contest after another. If I wanna fly, I'll find a way tofly. You do what you love, and f**k the rest.” 人在沮丧绝望中爆发出的生命力是惊人的。
