动画片里的经典英语潜台词
教材:蓝精灵
课程主题:共产主义实现了!(munism works!)
课程大意:对于反对者指出,前苏联证明共产主义在本质上是有缺陷的,我们可以仅仅将注意力转移到蓝精灵村,居民们共享着劳动成果、穿着相似的工装、"齐心合力开动脑筋斗败了格格巫"--这不正是马克思所说"各尽所能,按需分配"的最好体现么?
课程原文:
for naysayers who point to the former soviet union as proof that munism is inherently flawed, may we merely direct your attention to smurf village, where everyone shares everything, wears similar utilitarian clothing, battles gargamel and his turn-smurfs-to-gold get rich quick schemes and obeys the dictates of a bearded, red hat-wearing, benevolent authority figure. quoth rade papa: "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs." really, he actually said that。
课程总结:蓝精灵村里只有一个蓝妹妹却有30个小伙子的男女比例恐怕不甚乐观,那得多少时间学校才有个新学生咧?
总结原文:however, the sexual politics of smurf village, with its one female for every 30 guys, did go a long way towards preparing us for freshman year of college。
教材:大力水手
课程主题:多吃菠菜有好处。(spinach is good for you。)
课程大意:尽管菠菜不如糖果、冰激淋美味,但它富含你体内所需的维他命和矿物质,能让你的肌肉像舰艇上的炮弹一样大爆发。总之想要打败恶棍赢得美女,多吃菠菜吧!
课程原文:
sure, it doesn't taste as good as candy, ice cream or opium, but it's full of essential vitamins and minerals that'll make your muscles explode like battleship cannons. if you want to triumph over the bullying blutos of the world and win the affections of your own lovely, leggy olive oyl, pound a can of spinach at least once a day. or put it in your corncob pipe and smoke it, like everybody's favorite ornery, mumbling sailorman. toot toot!
课程总结:看看美国职业棒球联盟的类固醇丑闻,你就知道大力水手是怎样影响了一代人让他们不惜一切想要变得更强健。需要指出的是女主角奥利弗也许是第一个厌食症患者。
总结原文:you only need to look at the steroid scandal rocking major league baseball to see that popeye raised a generation that is willing to use performance enhancers. also, it should be pointed out that olive oyl was the first anorexic sex symbol。
教材:希曼
课程主题:成为同性恋也没关系。(it's ok to be gay。)
课程大意:金发剪成帅气的发型、浅黄色的双头肌、棕褐色的光滑身躯,拥有魔剑和举世无双的力量;此外他还动不动把他的帅气朋友邀请到自己的城堡来……囧
课程原文:
look at this guy: golden locks cut in a tasteful bob, buff biceps, tanned, toned, hairless torso, a magic sword and most importantly, fabulous powers. what's more, he-man invites his handsome friends, the mastersof the universe, to e hang out in his castle anytime. of courseskeletor and his fugly cohorts are never allowed access to the secrets of he-man's dark, dry palace. yes, we had he-man toys,like ram-man, trap-jaw and even castle grayskull. we also had afavorite pair of tighty whiteys that had he-man on one cheek and skeletor on the other, battling over our asshole. but did merely owning and wearing that underwear make us gay?
