導(dǎo)語(yǔ):68屆艾美獎(jiǎng)本屆提名想必又是一場(chǎng)激烈的競(jìng)爭(zhēng),除了有力候補(bǔ)《權(quán)力的游戲》以外,《紙牌屋》也不容小視。幾乎每一個(gè)美劇迷都有被安利過這部政治大劇吧,在權(quán)力背后的黑暗有如一部“美國(guó)宮廷劇”吊足了劇迷的胃口。當(dāng)然劇中隱射的人生哲理情節(jié)也使更多人愛上這部劇,今天小編就帶大家回顧House of Cards的那些經(jīng)典對(duì)白。

1.There are two kinds of pain.The sort of pain that makes you strong...or useless pain...The sort of pain that's only suffering.I have no patience for useless things.Moments like this require someone who will act...or do the unpleasant thing,or the necessary thing.There...No more pain.
痛苦分兩種,一種會(huì)讓你變得更強(qiáng),另一種則毫無(wú)價(jià)值,只徒添折磨。我對(duì)沒有價(jià)值的東西沒有耐心,這種時(shí)刻,需要有人采取行動(dòng)...或做一些不好的事...也是必要的事。好了,痛苦結(jié)束了。

(主人公Frank看到一只被車撞過后躺在地上奄奄一息的狗,與常人不同的是,他選擇走上前結(jié)束了它的痛苦。生活中我們總是會(huì)限于痛苦不能自拔,與其做無(wú)謂的掙扎,不如早些結(jié)束折磨做更有意義的事情。)

▲語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):耐心:have (no)patience for sth / to do sth=be (im)patient with doing sth對(duì)...(沒)有耐心,表達(dá)有耐心的還可以用:staminal、 stick-to-itive

2.And a person’s character isn’t determined by how he or she enjoys victory, but rather how he or she endures defeat.
一個(gè)人的品行,不在于他如何享受勝利,而在他如何承受失敗。

(人總是在失敗中才能看到自己缺少些什么,只有修正了失敗,補(bǔ)全了不足,才能在失敗后確保未來長(zhǎng)足的成功。)

▲語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):be determined by:由...決定,在于。

近義詞:depend on

▲語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):endure:作動(dòng)詞,表容忍,忍耐,經(jīng)得起,經(jīng)受住

近義詞:resist,abide

詞組搭配:at endure終于

3.Nothing can help us endure dark times better than our faith.
沒什么比信仰更能支撐我們度過艱難時(shí)光了。

4.It's not respect but fear that motivates a man; that’s how empires are built and revolutions begin.
激勵(lì)一個(gè)人前進(jìn)的動(dòng)力是恐懼,而不是尊敬。同樣,帝國(guó)誕于惶恐,革命起于不安。

(每個(gè)人都會(huì)害怕未知的前方,但正是因?yàn)楹ε陆o了你勇氣,它將前方的未知變成光明。)

▲語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):常用重點(diǎn)句型——強(qiáng)調(diào)句:it is...that...,強(qiáng)調(diào)it is后面的部分

5.There is but one rule: Hunt or be hunted.
有且只有一條規(guī)則:吃,或被吃。

(社會(huì)如同一個(gè)狩獵場(chǎng),唯有強(qiáng)大才能存活)

6.What are we supposed to do in the face of so much senseless pain? And he said to me,“what else can we do but take what seems meaningless and try to make something meaningful from it.”
在這些無(wú)意義的痛苦面前,我們?cè)撛趺醋??他告訴我:“除了從無(wú)意義的事情中,盡力去挖掘出一些有意義的東西,我們還能做什么呢?”

(“Like what you do, do what you like”唯有當(dāng)你Like what you do之后才能do what you like.)

▲語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):be supposed to do 應(yīng)當(dāng)做某事

近似用法:should have done sth 本應(yīng)做某事卻沒做 could have done sth本可以做某事卻沒做

▲語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):in the face of面對(duì)。面對(duì)還可以用face up to , confront with

詞語(yǔ)辨析:face, encounter, meet, contact, confront

這組詞都有“遇見,會(huì)見,碰見”的意思,其區(qū)別是:

face 側(cè)重雙方靜止地面對(duì)面,或指指充滿勇氣、信心和決心正視人或事。

encounter 通常指遇到困難或挫折,也指偶然或意外地相遇。

meet 普通用詞,本義指雙方或多方從不同方向或相反方向作向?qū)\(yùn)動(dòng),最終相碰(遇)。
