在二战结束后不久，阿甘（汤姆汉克斯 饰）出生于美国南方阿拉巴马州一个闭塞的小镇。他的智商只有75，然而他的妈妈是一个性格坚强的女性，她常常鼓励阿甘“傻人有傻福”，要他自强不息。在母亲的支持下，阿甘像普通孩子一样上学，并且认识了一生的朋友和至爱珍妮（罗宾莱特潘 饰）。在珍妮和妈妈的爱护下，阿甘凭着上帝赐予的“飞毛腿”开始了一生不停的奔跑。随着岁月的流逝，阿甘成为了橄榄球巨星、越战英雄、乒乓球外交使者、亿万富翁，但是，他始终忘不了珍妮。几次匆匆的相聚和离别，更是加深了阿甘的思念。究竟阿甘和珍妮能不能走到最后呢？阿甘正传（精讲一）阿甘正传 Forrest Gump影片对白Forrest: Hello. My names Forrest. Forrest Gump. You wannachocolate. I could eat about a million and a halfof these. My mama always said Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what youre going to get . Those must be comfortable shoes. I bet you could walk all day in shoes like that and not feel a thing. I wish I had shoes like that.Woman: My feet hurt.Forrest: Mama always said Theres an awful lot you can tell about a person by their shoes. Where theyre going. Where theyve been. Ive worn lots of shoes. I bet if I think about it real hard I could remember my first pair of shoes. Mama said they would take me anywhere. She said they were my magic shoes.Doctor: Alright, Forrest. Open your eyes now. Lets take a little walk around. How do they feel? His legs are strong, Mrs. Gump. As strong as Ive ever seen. But his back is as crooked as a politician. But were going to straighten him right up now, arent we, Forrest?Mrs.Gump: Forrest!Forrest: Now when I was a baby, Mama named me after the great Civil War hero, General Nathan Bedford Forrest. She said we was related to him in some way and what he did was, he started up this club called the Ku Klux Klan. Theyd all dress up in their robes and their bed sheets and act like a bunch of ghosts or spooks or something. Theyd even put bed sheets on their horses and ride around. Anyway, thats how I got my name, Forrest Gump. Mama said the Forrest part was to remind me that sometimes we all do things that, well, just dont make no sense.妙词佳句，活学活用1. Wanna = want to, want a, do you want to这里是美语缩读之一，美国人在日常生活中频繁的使用缩读，这也造成很多学习者的困惑。比如你想知道你的朋友是否愿意跳舞，就可以说：Wanna dance？2. a million and a half这里是指很多，这是美国人夸张的一种表达方式，使用相当广泛。中文中我们也会夸张，但用的数字通常会小些。比如我们说：都告诉你几百遍了你还记不住。翻成英文就是I have told you a million times也就是说我们通常使用的百在美国人嘴里就变成了million。所以百里挑一就变成了one in a million。3. Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what youre going to get.这句话的难点在于对chocolates的理解，阿甘那个时代的巧克力很多都是一盒中口味众多，可上面又没有标记是什么口味，除非亲自品尝。所以，阿甘母亲的意思其实是在表达，生活就像不知道下一块会吃到什么味的巧克力一样，只能顺其自然。当然你也可以将life换成其他词来活用。阿甘正传（精讲二）阿甘正传 Forrest Gump影片对白Forrest: Anyway. I guess you could say me and mama was on our own, but we didnt mind. Our house was never empty. There was always folks coming and going. Sometimes we had so many people staying with us that every room was filled with travelers. You know, folks livin out of their suit cases andhat cases , and sample cases. One time a young man was staying with us and he had him a guitar case.(Forrest dances as the traveler sings Hound Dog)Mrs.Gump: Forrest, I told you not to bother this nice young man.Elvis Presley: No, thats all right maam . I was just showing him a thing or two on the guitar here.Mrs.Gump: Alright. Suppers ready if yall want to eat.Elvis: Yeah, that sounds good. Thank you,maam. Say, man, show me that crazy little walk you just did there. Slow it down some. You aintnothin but a hound dog.Forrest: I liked that guitar. It sounded good. I started moving around to the music, swingin my hips. This night, me and mama was out shoppin and we walked right by Pitseys Furnature and Appliance store, Guess what. (Elvis was on TV dancing the way that Forrest taught him)Mrs.Gump: This is not for childrens eyes.Forrest: Some years later, that handsome young man who they called The King, well he sung too many songs. He had himself a heart attack or something. Must be hard being the king.妙词佳句，活学活用1.Folk 听说高频单词，常用名词用法：A ) 用来称呼一些人，可以翻译成“人们”。Folks, were ready to start now.B) 父母和非常亲近的人How is your folks?C) 形容词用法，民间的民俗的He can play folk music.2.livin out of their suit cases这里指经常提着公文包走南闯北的人。3.maam它是对女士的尊称，对任何年龄是否结婚一般都可以这样称呼。省去了大家辨别用miss还是mrs的时间。在传统国家只有有一定地位的女士才配有这样的称呼。美国人很爱使用，但这种叫不太正式4.aintam not, is not, are not, have not, or has not 的缩读形式，是不正式的语言，只在口语中出现，一般出现在文化水平较低的人群中，很多人对此词较为反感。建议大家知道意思就好，避免使用。5.This is not for childrens eyes.这就是我们常说的少儿不宜。用法很生活化，我们可以把它活用在其他地方，如果你看到一位男士拿着妇女之友看的津津有味，你就可以说this is not for mens eyes.如果你在讲话不想让旁边的孩子听到你就可以说this is not for childrens ears.美国文化面面观Presley Elvis (1935-1977), American singer and actor, one of the most popular and influential entertainers of the 20th century. Born on January 8, 1935, Elvis Presley moved with his family to Memphis in September 1948. He attended L.C. Humes High School and after graduation worked as a truck driver in the city. In 1953, on his lunch break, he recorded two songs for his mother at the Memphis Recording Service. These songs brought him a recording contract and launched his rise to fame. Presley is renowned as an early pioneer of rock music, fusing the sounds of country music and rhythm-and-blues influences with what was then the new rock-and-roll style. His unprecedented, electrically charged performances also helped make Presley one of the first mass idols of American popular culture.思想火花猫王，又名the king of rock and roll，是阿甘传奇经历中出现的第一个名人。而影片把他的成功和阿甘紧密地联系在一起，虽然不符合事实但确为影片的娱乐性增色不少。而无论是猫王还是其他在美国历史中充当重要角色的人物，和阿甘打过交道的人似乎都是非死即伤。可是大家仔细观察就会发现，无论阿甘和他们走的多近，对他们的评价总是一笔带过。这也是影片留给我们的思索，对这些人在历史中的作用无论消极还是积极，都只能由我们自己去体会。阿甘则总会说for no particular reason或者for some reason 。阿甘从未对他们有过任何评价，导演在留有余地的同时也希望我们去挖掘更多故事背后的东西，还请大家细细体味。考考你用你今日所学汉译英。1、请代问你父母好。2、我父亲长年在外出差，我很少能见到他。3、请问这位女士，请问您认识那个带黑帽子的先生吗？4、赶快回自己房间去，这不是你们小孩该听的。阿甘正传（精讲三）阿甘正传 Forrest Gump影片对白Forrest: Now, my mama always told me that miracles happen everyday. Some people dont think so but they do.Bully1: Hey, dummy! Are you dumb or just plain stupid?Forrest: Look, Im Forrest Gump.Little Jenny: Just run away, Forrest, Run, Forrest. Run away, Hurry!Bully2: Get the bikes. Hurry up.Bully1: Look out, dummy, here we come, were gonna get you!Little Jenny: Run, Forrest. Run, Forrest.Bully1: Come back here, you!Little Jenny: Run, Forrest, Run!Forrest: Now, You wouldnt believe it if I told you. But I can run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was going somewhere, I was runny!Man in store: That boy sure is a running fool.Forrest: Now, how I told you that Jenny never seemed to want to go home? Well she lived in a house that was as old as Alabama. Her mama had gone up to heaven when she five and her daddy was some kind of a farmer.Gump: ( knock on the door) Jenny?Forrest: He was a very loving man. He was always Kissin and touchin her and her sisters. And then this one time, Jenny wasnt on the bus to go to school.Gump: Jenny, why didnt you come to school today?Little Jenny: Shh! Daddys taking a nap.Father: Jenny!Little Jenny: Cmon!Father: Jenny! Whered you run to? Youd better get back here, girl. Jenny?Little Jenny: Pray with me, Forrest. Pray with me. Dear God, make me a bird, so I can fly far, far far away from here. Dear God, make me a bird.Forrest: Mama always said that God is mysterious. He didnt turn Jenny into a bird that day. Instead, he had the police say that Jenny didnt have to stay in that house no more. She went to live with her grandma, just over on Greek more Ave. Which made me happy cause she was so close. Some nights, Jenny would sneak outand come on over to my house, just cause she said she was scared of what? I dont know, but I think it was her grandmas dog. He was a mean dog. Anyway, Jenny and me was best friends all the way up through high school.妙词佳句，活学活用1. Were gonna get you!这句话的意思是“我们会抓住你的”。这里有两个语音点需要注意。Gonna是going to 的缩读，另外get you 连读后发生同化。/t/ 和/j/连读后变成字母组合ch的发音。2. I can run like the wind blows.这句话的意思是“我可以跑的跟风一样快”。这就是我们常说的风驰电掣，在说英语时有些同学因为抠字眼就翻不出这句话，其实阿甘语言虽然简单却很好的表达了这个意义。希望大家翻译时先着眼于意义对应，因为很多中文的翻译只按字翻译是无法达到交流目的的。3. running fool这里是指跑痴。这种用法很值得我们借鉴，就是说有些人做某事都做成傻子了。Doing fool，比如只知道吃的 eating fool。4. He had the police say that Jenny didnt have to stay in that house no more.这里又是一个双重否定表否定的例子，只是强调而并非负负得正。请大家多注意口语中的这种现象。比如我想说我什么都不知道就可以用：I aint know nothing!5. sneak out在这里是指偷偷溜出去。A. 动词用法，偷偷地前进或行动He sneaks candy into mouth(偷偷地把糖塞进嘴巴).B. sneaker: 旅游鞋是美语中不正式的用法C. 形容词用法，秘密的，突袭的：a sneak attack by terrorists恐怖分子的突然袭击思想火花阿甘在描述Jenny父亲时，提到了他Kissin and touchin her and her sisters.似乎应该是个好父亲，可后来Jenny却离开了他。这里很多同学看的有些迷惑，其实阿甘作为孩子的理解也就到这步。这里实际的意思是Jenny父亲对她们姐妹的性虐待。大家可以从他父亲的酒瓶，Jenny破烂的衣服看出Jenny所受的非人的对待。所以她才想变成一只鸟飞走。而童年的阴影直接决定到Jenny在后面人生中安全感的缺乏，对生命的不负责任。连最爱她的阿甘也多次受到她言语的伤害，她只把阿甘当做傻子一个儿时的玩伴，竟然在阿甘表达爱她时指责阿甘不懂什么是爱。直到多年的挫折后，阿甘无数次的包容和帮助才让她看清谁是可以永远依靠的人。Jenny后来拿石块猛砸她父亲的老房子时，我们便能体会苦命的童年給她的伤害之深。而这也是美国乃至人类的悲哀。在下面的文化面面观中我们一起看看在美国这些问题的起源和现状。美国文化面面观Child Abuse, covers a wide range of behavior, from actual physical assault by parents or other adult caretakers to neglect of a childs basic needs.
