【选段台词】
Vision: A pinch of paprika. A pinch.
Wanda: Is that Paprikash?
Vision: I thought it might... lift your spirits.
Wanda: Spirits lifted.
Vision: In my defense, I haven't actually... eaten anything before, so...
Wanda: Aye, aye.
Vision: Please. Wanda.
Wanda: Hmm.
Vision: No one dislikes you, Wanda.
Wanda: Thanks.
Vision: Oh, you're welcome. No. It's a... involuntary response in their amygdala they can't help but be afraid of you.
Wanda: Are you?
Vision: My amygdala is synthetic, so...
Wanda: I used to think of myself one way. But, after this. I am something else. And still me, I think. But... that's not what everyone else sees.
Vision: Do you know I don't know what this is. Not really. I know it's not of this world. But it powered Loki staff, gave you your abilities. But... its true nature is a mystery. And yet, it is part of me.
Wanda: Are you afraid of it?
Vision: I wish to understand it. The more I do, the less it controls me. One day, who knows, I may even control it.
Wanda: I don't know what's in this but it is not paprika. I'm gonna go to the store, I'll be back in 20 minutes.
Vision: Alternatively, we could order a pizza?
Wanda: Vision, are you not letting me leave?
Vision: It's a question of safety.
Wanda: I can protect myself.
Vision: Not yours. Mr. Stark would like to avoid the possibility of another public incident. Until the Accords are a... more secured foundation.
Wanda: And what do you want?
Vision: For people to see you… as I do.
【重点词汇】
1. a pinch of
美队，猎鹰，黑豹和冬兵四人正在充当马路杀手，开启了你追我赶他拦的戏码。这边幻视和猩红女巫在家里“浪漫度日”，幻视正拿着食谱给猩红女巫做红椒鸡，食谱终极难题“少许”到底是多少这个梗肯定少不了。So, 幻视正在纠结a pinch of paprika（少许红辣椒），a pinch of 少许，一撮的意思。有一个习语take it with a pinch of salt 意为半信半疑。
2. lift spirits
红女巫施展自己的异能控制一个炸弹时，因炸弹威力过大，不小心炸了一栋楼，心情很糟糕。幻视就想做红椒鸡给万达提神。lift one’s spirits 提神，注意动词搭配。这也是学习英语的一大难点。提神也可以说refresh oneself; give oneself a lift.
3. be afraid of
幻视安慰旺达说，“没有人不喜欢你，在他们的大脑里杏仁核一……不自觉的反应，他们情不自禁的怕你。”be afraid of 害怕，担忧；of为介词，后面跟名词、代词、动名词。区别be afraid to do sth. 是不敢去做某事。
4. order
旺达尝了下幻视做的红椒鸡，说“我不知道你放了什么，但肯定不是红椒。我要去楼下超市一趟，20分钟左右就回来。”幻视突然很紧张，说我们可以订披萨。旺达发现不对劲，幻视不想让她出门。美好浪漫的气氛总是这样短暂。Order 在这里是订餐的意思。区别 book和reserve：order指订购，订货，点餐；book指(向旅馆、饭店、戏院等)预定、预约，飞机订票也用book；reserve表示预定、预约(座位、席位、房间等)。
