I didn’t go to him, Juliet. I didn’t go to Lorenzo. His eyes were so full of trust. I promised I’d meet him to run away together because my parents don’t approve. But instead, I left him waiting for me, below our tree, waiting and wondering where I was. I’m in Verona now. I return to London in the morning, and I’m so afraid. Please, Juliet, tell me what I should do. My heart is breaking, and I have no one else to turn to. Love, Claire.
這封50年前就放在許愿墻而被遺忘的信終于被Sophie發(fā)現(xiàn)了,成為影片所有故事的導(dǎo)火索。50年前,一名叫Claire的年輕女子因?yàn)楦改傅姆磳?duì)被迫離開(kāi)了心愛(ài)的人,不得不嫁給父母安排好的貴族子弟,而她心愛(ài)的Lorenzo卻要在那里苦苦等待,她內(nèi)心的痛苦想要對(duì)Juliet訴說(shuō),最后她終究是接受了命運(yùn)的安排。
Turn to在這里表示的是Claire已經(jīng)十分絕望,卻找不到人來(lái)幫助她,可以翻譯成求助于。
Approve的正誤用法:
(1)公司總裁批準(zhǔn)了建筑計(jì)劃。
誤:The company president approved of the buildingplans.
正:The company president approved the buildingplans.
析:approve 在現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)中有兩個(gè)主要用法:一是表示“贊成”、 “認(rèn)可”、“滿意”、“同意”等, 此時(shí)通常是不及物動(dòng)詞(有時(shí)用作及物動(dòng)詞,但已很少見(jiàn)),若需后接賓語(yǔ),通常要借助介詞 of;二是表示“批準(zhǔn)”、“通過(guò)”,此時(shí)只用作及物動(dòng)詞,其后跟賓語(yǔ)時(shí)無(wú)需任何介詞。不及物用例:I approve of your choice.(我贊成你的選擇)。
(2)我不贊成你同他一起出去。
誤:I do not approve you to go out with him.
正:I do not approve of your going out with him.
析:approve 通常不跟不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)作賓語(yǔ)。

-May I ask, which one of you wrote this letter to my grandmother, Claire Smith?
-I wrote that. And I can’t believe that it found you.
-Yes. We Brits tend to stay in our family homes.
-Yeah. That is amazing. It’s less than a week since I mailed it.
-Now, what were you thinking?
-I was thinking that she deserved an answer.
-Yeah, 50 years ago, maybe. Not now.
-I’m sorry. I didn’t know true love had an expiration date.
-True love? Are you joking? Could you imagine what would’ve happened if she hadn’t seen sense?
男主角終于出現(xiàn)啦~~終于和Sophie見(jiàn)面啦~~不過(guò),初次見(jiàn)面,男主貌似態(tài)度不友好,他不愿意帶奶奶(也就是Claire)來(lái)尋找真愛(ài),因?yàn)樗幌嘈耪鎼?ài),更何況是50年前的愛(ài)情,他覺(jué)得很荒謬,相反Sophie因?yàn)樗龑?xiě)的回信寄到了而表現(xiàn)的十分激動(dòng),那么她和男主之間到底會(huì)發(fā)生些什么事情呢?他們之間的爭(zhēng)吵到底何時(shí)才能結(jié)束呢?
