ACT 3-3 你看看窗外
【故事梗概】
面对美食,Richard建议马上开吃,但是Marilyn坚持要先给家里打个电话,问问儿子的情况。早饭后,天气放晴了。雨过天晴,云破日出,真是个完美的二度蜜月。
Richard: Let's eat!
Marilyn: First I want to call home and check on your mother and the baby.
Richard: Honey, if there were any problems, she would call us.
Marilyn: She doesn't know we've changed hotels.
Richard: You're right. Of course.
Marilyn: [She goes to the telephone.] Hello, operator, I'd like to call Riverdale, New York.
[A little later.]
Richard: This food is heavenly, isn't it?
Marilyn: This whole place is heavenly. Do you remember that old desk? Mrs. Montefiore told me that George Washington sat at that desk and wrote to his wife Martha.
Richard: What do you want to do after breakfast?
Marilyn: Why don't we take a walk down to the river?
Richard: In the rain?
Marilyn: No. Look out the window. The sun is shining!
Richard: Now this is my idea of a good time!
[They hold hands across the table.]
【语言点精讲】
1. First I want to call home and check on your mother and the baby.
我先得给家里打电话,看看你母亲和小宝宝怎样了。
check on: 查核,查询。
2. Honey, if there were any problems, she would call us.
亲爱的,要是有事的话,她会打电话告诉我们的。
这句话是个虚拟的条件句。条件句中用were表示现在(或将来),主句中用would表示将来,意思是说这种情况发生的可能性很小
3. Hello, operator, I'd like to call Riverdale, New York.
你好,接线员,我要打电话到纽约的里弗代尔。
operator: (电话)接线员。
4. This food is heavenly, isn't it?
这饭食真是太丰盛了,不是吗?
heavenly: 经过上帝之手,无比、极其美好的。
5. Mrs. Montefiore told me that George Washington sat at that desk and wrote to his wife Martha.
Montefiore夫人告诉过我George Washington曾坐在桌旁给他的夫人Martha写信呢。
George Washington: 乔治·华盛顿。美国第一任总统,任期自1789年至1797年。
6. Look out the window.
你看看窗外。更正规的说法应该是Look out of the window.
