看《饥饿游戏》学地道口语：年轻人的爱情

【内容简介】

北美洲在一场大战后被摧毁，在美国原来的废墟上，人们建立了新的家园，但新政权规定：管辖下的12个地区每年都必须进贡少年男女，参加一档电视直播节目“饥饿游戏”（Hunger Game）。节目的规则很简单——杀人或者被杀。凯妮丝Katniss Everdeen（詹妮弗·劳伦斯 Jennifer Lawrence 饰）的妹妹不幸在12区“选择日”时被选中，由于要保护妹妹，凯妮丝自告奋勇要替妹妹上场 。她不得不与心上人盖尔Gale Hawthorne（利亚姆·海姆斯沃斯 Liam Hemsworth 饰）分开，跟同时被选为12区贡品代表的皮塔Peeta Mellark（乔什·哈切森 Josh Hutcherson 饰）进入游戏……选段中，因为群众们的愤怒抗议，游戏者不得不修改规则：允许两名获胜者，但是条件是必须来自同一区……

Katniss: Peeta...

Peeta: I should have gone to you. I should have just gone out in the rain and...

Katniss: You feel hot.

Peeta: I remember the first time I saw you. Your hair in two braids instead of one. And I remember when you sang in the music assembly. "Who knows The Valley Song?" And you hand shot straight up.

Katniss: Stop.

Peeta: After that, I watched you going home every day. Every day.

Katniss: Well, say something.

Peeta: I'm not good at saying something.

Peeta: Katniss, you're not gonna risk your life for me. I'm not gonna let you.

Katniss: You would do it for me. Wouldn't you?

Peeta: Why are you doing this?

(Kiss)

Peeta: Now there's no way I'm letting you go.

Katniss: Peeta...

Peeta: Please. Stay.

Katniss: Okay.

Peeta: I'll stay.

 【重点词汇】

意为“支持”。那个一直支持Katniss的设计师对Seneca说道：“如果你不能使群众害怕停止暴行的话，就支持他们。”之后，便有了修改游戏规定的一幕,爱情可以让群众动容。

2. from now on

“From now on”意为"从现在开始"。终于，游戏者抵不住群众的压力，改变了规定，可以有两位胜利者，但是要在一定的条件下。

3. originate from

“从现在开始，两位贡品将可被加冕，但是前提是必须来自同一地区。” “originate from”意为“来自”，“起源于”。

4. figure out

“我们会找到办法的。”当Peeta自责没有找到降落伞，Katniss安慰他天无绝人之路，总会找到办法的。本意为“计算出”，“解决”，“弄明白”，“合计”。
