看《完美音调》学地道口语：让我们分享一下自己的秘密

【内容简介】

巴顿大学新人贝卡（安娜·肯德里克 Anna Kendrick 饰），意外加入学校的阿卡贝拉女子美声合唱团，该社团集结了又乖又坏又怪的各样女性成员，唯一共通点就是能清唱出犹如天籁的美声。社团成员包括：自认歌声最好，自信过人的“胖艾美”（蕾蓓尔·威尔森 Rebel Wilson 饰）、常常出言不逊又固执墨守成规，但其实焦虑不已的欧柏莉（安娜·坎普 Anna Camp 饰）、团员精神支柱克萝伊（布兰特妮·斯诺 Brittany Snow 饰）、性事无度的撩人歌姬史黛西（亚历克西斯·克纳普 Alexis Knapp 饰）、歌声动人的男人婆辛西亚萝丝（伊斯特·迪恩 Ester Dean 饰）、声音小如蚊子但即兴饶舌却令大家惊艳不已的哈娜梅李。

选段中，Beca看到Bellas成了一盘散沙，而大家都在为了当队长争得不可开交……她们最后终于爆出自己的秘密，坦然面对和接纳队友……

【选段台词】

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.

【重点词汇】

1. be hard on sb.

当Beca向大家道歉了之后，准备失望地离开。这时Aubrey叫住了Brca：“贝卡，我知道我对你很苛刻，好吗？我知道我对每个人都很苛刻。但我是我父亲教出来的，他经常说，‘如果你实在没指望了，赶紧打包回家吧。’”“be hard on sb.”意为“严格对待[批评]某人”；“对某人不公平”；“不客气”。

2. admit to sb.

Beca看到一盘散沙的Bellas，提出建议：“我们不如围成一圈，然后说一说我们不为人知的一些事。”这时候Cynthia站起来：“好，我有话说！向你们坦诚我压力很大啊。”只有每个队员坦诚相待，才能换来整个队的团结。“admit to sb.”意为“向……承认”，“向……坦白”。

3. break up with sb.

当Cynthia站起来坦白的时候，Fat Amy轻声嘟囔了一句：“我们其实都知道是什么事了，就老实交代啊。”Cynthia坦白说道：“近两年里，我嗜赌成瘾，当然这是从我跟女朋友分手之后开始的。”“break up with sb.”意为“与……分手”。

4. an open book

当Beca听完了其他的队员的坦白之后，问了Fat Amy，Fat Amy说道：“我没什么秘密，我是说，你们都叫我胖艾米。我想我要是不够坦诚，就不能算真正活着，其实我的真名是胖帕特里夏。”“an open book”意为“坦诚的人”，“没有秘密”。
