在二戰(zhàn)結(jié)束后不久，阿甘（湯姆漢克斯 飾）出生于美國南方阿拉巴馬州一個閉塞的小鎮(zhèn)。他的智商只有75，然而他的媽媽是一個性格堅強的女性，她常常鼓勵阿甘“傻人有傻?！?，要他自強不息。在母親的支持下，阿甘像普通孩子一樣上學，并且認識了一生的朋友和至愛珍妮（羅賓萊特潘 飾）。在珍妮和媽媽的愛護下，阿甘憑著上帝賜予的“飛毛腿”開始了一生不停的奔跑。隨著歲月的流逝，阿甘成為了橄欖球巨星、越戰(zhàn)英雄、乒乓球外交使者、億萬富翁，但是，他始終忘不了珍妮。幾次匆匆的相聚和離別，更是加深了阿甘的思念。究竟阿甘和珍妮能不能走到最后呢？阿甘正傳（精講一）阿甘正傳 Forrest Gump影片對白Forrest: Hello. My names Forrest. Forrest Gump. You wannachocolate. I could eat about a million and a halfof these. My mama always said Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what youre going to get . Those must be comfortable shoes. I bet you could walk all day in shoes like that and not feel a thing. I wish I had shoes like that.Woman: My feet hurt.Forrest: Mama always said Theres an awful lot you can tell about a person by their shoes. Where theyre going. Where theyve been. Ive worn lots of shoes. I bet if I think about it real hard I could remember my first pair of shoes. Mama said they would take me anywhere. She said they were my magic shoes.Doctor: Alright, Forrest. Open your eyes now. Lets take a little walk around. How do they feel? His legs are strong, Mrs. Gump. As strong as Ive ever seen. But his back is as crooked as a politician. But were going to straighten him right up now, arent we, Forrest?Mrs.Gump: Forrest!Forrest: Now when I was a baby, Mama named me after the great Civil War hero, General Nathan Bedford Forrest. She said we was related to him in some way and what he did was, he started up this club called the Ku Klux Klan. Theyd all dress up in their robes and their bed sheets and act like a bunch of ghosts or spooks or something. Theyd even put bed sheets on their horses and ride around. Anyway, thats how I got my name, Forrest Gump. Mama said the Forrest part was to remind me that sometimes we all do things that, well, just dont make no sense.妙詞佳句，活學活用1. Wanna = want to, want a, do you want to這里是美語縮讀之一，美國人在日常生活中頻繁的使用縮讀，這也造成很多學習者的困惑。比如你想知道你的朋友是否愿意跳舞，就可以說：Wanna dance？2. a million and a half這里是指很多，這是美國人夸張的一種表達方式，使用相當廣泛。中文中我們也會夸張，但用的數(shù)字通常會小些。比如我們說：都告訴你幾百遍了你還記不住。翻成英文就是I have told you a million times也就是說我們通常使用的百在美國人嘴里就變成了million。所以百里挑一就變成了one in a million。3. Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what youre going to get.這句話的難點在于對chocolates的理解，阿甘那個時代的巧克力很多都是一盒中口味眾多，可上面又沒有標記是什么口味，除非親自品嘗。所以，阿甘母親的意思其實是在表達，生活就像不知道下一塊會吃到什么味的巧克力一樣，只能順其自然。當然你也可以將life換成其他詞來活用。阿甘正傳（精講二）阿甘正傳 Forrest Gump影片對白Forrest: Anyway. I guess you could say me and mama was on our own, but we didnt mind. Our house was never empty. There was always folks coming and going. Sometimes we had so many people staying with us that every room was filled with travelers. You know, folks livin out of their suit cases andhat cases , and sample cases. One time a young man was staying with us and he had him a guitar case.(Forrest dances as the traveler sings Hound Dog)Mrs.Gump: Forrest, I told you not to bother this nice young man.Elvis Presley: No, thats all right maam . I was just showing him a thing or two on the guitar here.Mrs.Gump: Alright. Suppers ready if yall want to eat.Elvis: Yeah, that sounds good. Thank you,maam. Say, man, show me that crazy little walk you just did there. Slow it down some. You aintnothin but a hound dog.Forrest: I liked that guitar. It sounded good. I started moving around to the music, swingin my hips. This night, me and mama was out shoppin and we walked right by Pitseys Furnature and Appliance store, Guess what. (Elvis was on TV dancing the way that Forrest taught him)Mrs.Gump: This is not for childrens eyes.Forrest: Some years later, that handsome young man who they called The King, well he sung too many songs. He had himself a heart attack or something. Must be hard being the king.妙詞佳句，活學活用1.Folk 聽說高頻單詞，常用名詞用法：A ) 用來稱呼一些人，可以翻譯成“人們”。Folks, were ready to start now.B) 父母和非常親近的人How is your folks?C) 形容詞用法，民間的民俗的He can play folk music.2.livin out of their suit cases這里指經(jīng)常提著公文包走南闖北的人。3.maam它是對女士的尊稱，對任何年齡是否結(jié)婚一般都可以這樣稱呼。省去了大家辨別用miss還是mrs的時間。在傳統(tǒng)國家只有有一定地位的女士才配有這樣的稱呼。美國人很愛使用，但這種叫不太正式4.aintam not, is not, are not, have not, or has not 的縮讀形式，是不正式的語言，只在口語中出現(xiàn)，一般出現(xiàn)在文化水平較低的人群中，很多人對此詞較為反感。建議大家知道意思就好，避免使用。5.This is not for childrens eyes.這就是我們常說的少兒不宜。用法很生活化，我們可以把它活用在其他地方，如果你看到一位男士拿著婦女之友看的津津有味，你就可以說this is not for mens eyes.如果你在講話不想讓旁邊的孩子聽到你就可以說this is not for childrens ears.美國文化面面觀Presley Elvis (1935-1977), American singer and actor, one of the most popular and influential entertainers of the 20th century. Born on January 8, 1935, Elvis Presley moved with his family to Memphis in September 1948. He attended L.C. Humes High School and after graduation worked as a truck driver in the city. In 1953, on his lunch break, he recorded two songs for his mother at the Memphis Recording Service. These songs brought him a recording contract and launched his rise to fame. Presley is renowned as an early pioneer of rock music, fusing the sounds of country music and rhythm-and-blues influences with what was then the new rock-and-roll style. His unprecedented, electrically charged performances also helped make Presley one of the first mass idols of American popular culture.思想火花貓王，又名the king of rock and roll，是阿甘傳奇經(jīng)歷中出現(xiàn)的第一個名人。而影片把他的成功和阿甘緊密地聯(lián)系在一起，雖然不符合事實但確為影片的娛樂性增色不少。而無論是貓王還是其他在美國歷史中充當重要角色的人物，和阿甘打過交道的人似乎都是非死即傷?？墒谴蠹易屑氂^察就會發(fā)現(xiàn)，無論阿甘和他們走的多近，對他們的評價總是一筆帶過。這也是影片留給我們的思索，對這些人在歷史中的作用無論消極還是積極，都只能由我們自己去體會。阿甘則總會說for no particular reason或者for some reason 。阿甘從未對他們有過任何評價，導演在留有余地的同時也希望我們?nèi)ネ诰蚋喙适卤澈蟮臇|西，還請大家細細體味?？伎寄阌媚憬袢账鶎W漢譯英。1、請代問你父母好。2、我父親長年在外出差，我很少能見到他。3、請問這位女士，請問您認識那個帶黑帽子的先生嗎？4、趕快回自己房間去，這不是你們小孩該聽的。阿甘正傳（精講三）阿甘正傳 Forrest Gump影片對白Forrest: Now, my mama always told me that miracles happen everyday. Some people dont think so but they do.Bully1: Hey, dummy! Are you dumb or just plain stupid?Forrest: Look, Im Forrest Gump.Little Jenny: Just run away, Forrest, Run, Forrest. Run away, Hurry!Bully2: Get the bikes. Hurry up.Bully1: Look out, dummy, here we come, were gonna get you!Little Jenny: Run, Forrest. Run, Forrest.Bully1: Come back here, you!Little Jenny: Run, Forrest, Run!Forrest: Now, You wouldnt believe it if I told you. But I can run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was going somewhere, I was runny!Man in store: That boy sure is a running fool.Forrest: Now, how I told you that Jenny never seemed to want to go home? Well she lived in a house that was as old as Alabama. Her mama had gone up to heaven when she five and her daddy was some kind of a farmer.Gump: ( knock on the door) Jenny?Forrest: He was a very loving man. He was always Kissin and touchin her and her sisters. And then this one time, Jenny wasnt on the bus to go to school.Gump: Jenny, why didnt you come to school today?Little Jenny: Shh! Daddys taking a nap.Father: Jenny!Little Jenny: Cmon!Father: Jenny! Whered you run to? Youd better get back here, girl. Jenny?Little Jenny: Pray with me, Forrest. Pray with me. Dear God, make me a bird, so I can fly far, far far away from here. Dear God, make me a bird.Forrest: Mama always said that God is mysterious. He didnt turn Jenny into a bird that day. Instead, he had the police say that Jenny didnt have to stay in that house no more. She went to live with her grandma, just over on Greek more Ave. Which made me happy cause she was so close. Some nights, Jenny would sneak outand come on over to my house, just cause she said she was scared of what? I dont know, but I think it was her grandmas dog. He was a mean dog. Anyway, Jenny and me was best friends all the way up through high school.妙詞佳句，活學活用1. Were gonna get you!這句話的意思是“我們會抓住你的”。這里有兩個語音點需要注意。Gonna是going to 的縮讀，另外get you 連讀后發(fā)生同化。/t/ 和/j/連讀后變成字母組合ch的發(fā)音。2. I can run like the wind blows.這句話的意思是“我可以跑的跟風一樣快”。這就是我們常說的風馳電掣，在說英語時有些同學因為摳字眼就翻不出這句話，其實阿甘語言雖然簡單卻很好的表達了這個意義。希望大家翻譯時先著眼于意義對應，因為很多中文的翻譯只按字翻譯是無法達到交流目的的。3. running fool這里是指跑癡。這種用法很值得我們借鑒，就是說有些人做某事都做成傻子了。Doing fool，比如只知道吃的 eating fool。4. He had the police say that Jenny didnt have to stay in that house no more.這里又是一個雙重否定表否定的例子，只是強調(diào)而并非負負得正。請大家多注意口語中的這種現(xiàn)象。比如我想說我什么都不知道就可以用：I aint know nothing!5. sneak out在這里是指偷偷溜出去。A. 動詞用法，偷偷地前進或行動He sneaks candy into mouth(偷偷地把糖塞進嘴巴).B. sneaker: 旅游鞋是美語中不正式的用法C. 形容詞用法，秘密的，突襲的：a sneak attack by terrorists恐怖分子的突然襲擊思想火花阿甘在描述Jenny父親時，提到了他Kissin and touchin her and her sisters.似乎應該是個好父親，可后來Jenny卻離開了他。這里很多同學看的有些迷惑，其實阿甘作為孩子的理解也就到這步。這里實際的意思是Jenny父親對她們姐妹的性虐待。大家可以從他父親的酒瓶，Jenny破爛的衣服看出Jenny所受的非人的對待。所以她才想變成一只鳥飛走。而童年的陰影直接決定到Jenny在后面人生中安全感的缺乏，對生命的不負責任。連最愛她的阿甘也多次受到她言語的傷害，她只把阿甘當做傻子一個兒時的玩伴，竟然在阿甘表達愛她時指責阿甘不懂什么是愛。直到多年的挫折后，阿甘無數(shù)次的包容和幫助才讓她看清誰是可以永遠依靠的人。Jenny后來拿石塊猛砸她父親的老房子時，我們便能體會苦命的童年給她的傷害之深。而這也是美國乃至人類的悲哀。在下面的文化面面觀中我們一起看看在美國這些問題的起源和現(xiàn)狀。美國文化面面觀Child Abuse, covers a wide range of behavior, from actual physical assault by parents or other adult caretakers to neglect of a childs basic needs. Child abuse is also sometimes called child maltreatment.Child Abuse Cases in the USAIn 2000 more than 850,000 children in the United States were victims of abuse.
