文化面面觀  Amen (阿門) 這個詞大家都常常聽到，這是基督徒們常說的一個詞。這個詞究竟有什么魔力，基督徒們要常常把它掛在嘴邊呢?

思想火花   蘇珊娜的到來是整個家族命運(yùn)的轉(zhuǎn)折點(diǎn)。愛情沒有錯，她也沒有錯，可是悲劇還是造成了。這個弱小的女子承受了命運(yùn)所有的錯。

影片對白

Colonel Ludlow: Alfred! Stop mooning over Miss Finncannon and come in here. Samuel wants to know about the young calves raised up in Cheyena. Come on, get in here.

Alfred: Please excuse my father. It makes him feel young and powerful to treat us like we're idiot children.

Colonel Ludlow: For this and all His countless blessings, may God's holy name be praised and blessed. Amen.

Alfred, Tristan, Samuel: Amen.

Tristan: Tell Father what you were saying about Vienna.

Colonel Ludlow: What's that?

Samuel: oh, it's the Kaiser. He won't stop them from annihilating Serbia.

Colonel Ludlow: Let's not talk about war at the table. Please.

Samuel: Susannah hears that all England is mobilizing. We're stuck out in the middle of nowhere while all this is going on.

Colonel Ludlow: Thank God for that.

Samuel: You wouldn't want us to evade our duty.

Colonel Ludlow: Wouldn't I?

Alfred: Father, with respect...

Susannah: Please excuse me for being late. I packed so carefully l couldn't find. Thank you.

All: Would you like some...

Colonel Ludlow: Dear Isabel, how strange to have a cultivated woman in the house again, and how intoxicating. Indeed to have all three of my sons under my roof again fills me with such a deep, quiet satisfaction that l thank God.

妙語佳句，活學(xué)活用

1. Moon over somebody

從字面上看是“月光照耀某人”，不禁讓人聯(lián)想到“月出皎兮，皎人僚兮”這樣的句子，實際上這個短語是“daydreaming or doing silly things”的意思。Alfred 對 Susannah 一見鐘情，雖然他行為得體，不像 Tristan 那么放肆，他老爹還是一眼就看穿他的想法了。 我們再來看個例子：Don't moon over her anymore. 別再對那個女孩發(fā)夢了。

2. Kaiser

德國皇帝的稱呼，也是神圣羅馬帝國Holy Roman Empire (962-1806)皇帝和奧地利 (1806-1918)皇帝的稱呼。
