看《完美音調》學地道口語：讓我們分享一下自己的祕密

【內容簡介】

巴頓大學新人貝卡（安娜·肯德里克 Anna Kendrick 飾），意外加入學校的阿卡貝拉女子美聲合唱團，該社團集結了又乖又壞又怪的各樣女性成員，唯一共通點就是能清唱出猶如天籟的美聲。社團成員包括：自認歌聲最好，自信過人的“胖艾美”（蕾蓓爾·威爾森 Rebel Wilson 飾）、常常出言不遜又固執墨守成規，但其實焦慮不已的歐柏莉（安娜·坎普 Anna Camp 飾）、團員精神支柱克蘿伊（布蘭特妮·斯諾 Brittany Snow 飾）、性事無度的撩人歌姬史黛西（亞歷克西斯·克納普 Alexis Knapp 飾）、歌聲動人的男人婆辛西亞蘿絲（伊斯特·迪恩 Ester Dean 飾）、聲音小如蚊子但即興饒舌卻令大家驚豔不已的哈娜梅李。

選段中，Beca看到Bellas成了一盤散沙，而大家都在爲了當隊長爭得不可開交……她們最後終於爆出自己的祕密，坦然面對和接納隊友……

【選段臺詞】

Aubrey: Beca, I know that I've been hard on you, okay? I know that I have been hard on everyone here. But I am my father's daughter. And he always said, "If at first you don't succeed, "pack your bags."

Amy: Jesus.

Beca: I get it. Mine gets on me, too. Not like that, but...I guess we don't really know that much about each other. About most of you, really.

Stacie: Well, I'll confess something that none of you know about me. I have a lot of sex.

Amy: Yeah, we know, Stacie.

Stacie: Only 'cause I just told you.

Beca: This is a good idea. That was a pretty bad example, but this is a good idea. Why don't we all go around the room, and we can all say something about ourselves that nobody else knows.

Cynthia: Okay, I got something. This is hard for me to admit to you guys.

Amy: I think we all know where this is going. Let's be honest.

Cynthia: Well, for the last two years, I've had a serious gambling problem.

Amy: What?

Beca: What?

Cynthia: It started when I broke up with my girlfriend.

Amy: Whoomp! There it is.

Beca: Anyone else?

Hana: I ate my twin in the womb.

Amy: What?

Beca: Okay. Fat Amy?

Amy: I'm an open book. I mean, for God's sake, you guys all call me Fat Amy. See, I guess I'm just not really living if I'm not being 100 % honest. And my real name is Fat Patricia.

Aubrey: What?

Beca: Okay. I've never been one of those girls who had a lot of friends who were girls. And I do now. And that's pretty cool. So, that's me. Someone else please go.

Chloe: Okay. Over spring break, I made the courageous decision to remove my nodes. I know. The doctor said that I can't sing above a G-sharp, maybe ever. I thought the season was over. It's okay. It's okay.

Aubrey: Beca, what do we do? I'm sorry.

Beca: Maybe not here.

【重點詞彙】

1. be hard on sb.

當Beca向大家道歉了之後，準備失望地離開。這時Aubrey叫住了Brca：“貝卡，我知道我對你很苛刻，好嗎？我知道我對每個人都很苛刻。但我是我父親教出來的，他經常說，‘如果你實在沒指望了，趕緊打包回家吧。’”“be hard on sb.”意爲“嚴格對待[批評]某人”；“對某人不公平”；“不客氣”。

2. admit to sb.

Beca看到一盤散沙的Bellas，提出建議：“我們不如圍成一圈，然後說一說我們不爲人知的一些事。”這時候Cynthia站起來：“好，我有話說！向你們坦誠我壓力很大啊。”只有每個隊員坦誠相待，才能換來整個隊的團結。“admit to sb.”意爲“向……承認”，“向……坦白”。

3. break up with sb.

當Cynthia站起來坦白的時候，Fat Amy輕聲嘟囔了一句：“我們其實都知道是什麼事了，就老實交代啊。”Cynthia坦白說道：“近兩年裏，我嗜賭成癮，當然這是從我跟女朋友分手之後開始的。”“break up with sb.”意爲“與……分手”。

4. an open book

當Beca聽完了其他的隊員的坦白之後，問了Fat Amy，Fat Amy說道：“我沒什麼祕密，我是說，你們都叫我胖艾米。我想我要是不夠坦誠，就不能算真正活着，其實我的真名是胖帕特里夏。”“an open book”意爲“坦誠的人”，“沒有祕密”。
