《马达加斯加2》精讲之二

Skipper: Attention! This is your captain. I have good and bad news. The good news is we're landing immediately. The bad news is we're crash-landing. When it comes to air travel, we know you have no choice whatsoever. But thanks for choosing Air Penguin.

Julien: Raise your arms, Maurice! It's more fun when you raise your arms! I can fly!

Alex: This could be it, Marty! I want you to know you are a one-in-a-million friend!

Marty: Thanks buddy! You're the best ever!

Alex: And you won't mind when I tell you...

Marty: Tell me anything!

Alex: I broke your iPod! The buttons were so small! It made me mad!

Marty: The horror!

Alex: I'm sorry!

Marty: I'll kill you, butt-biter!

Alex: It was an accident! An accident!

Marty: Butt-biter!

Melman: I love you Gloria! I always have! Like you love the beach. Or a good book. Or the beach.

Skipper: Goodness, doll, you're shaking like a leaf. Rico, you've had your fun. Pull up. Gear down gently. You just want to kiss the ground. Just a peck, a smooch, like you'd kiss your sister. I said kiss it! Now just a little brake. Just a touch.

Monkey: I believe that's checkmate.

Skipper: emergency landing procedure. Flaps up! Deploy!

Gloria: Oh, we're here. What in the world? What happened to the plane? What did y'all do to the plane?

Marty: I'm OK. I'm alive.

Gloria: I can't even sleep for a minute. This is not JFK.

Rico: Kowalski, casualty report. Two passengers unaccounted for.

Skipper: That's a number l can live with. Good landing, boys. Who says a penguin can't fly?

妙语佳句，活学活用

1. crash-landing: 迫降,毁机着陆。影片中Skipper说："坏消息是我们得迫降了。"

He takes control of the aircraft, crash-landing it in an industrial park at the edge of the city. 他操控飞机，迫降在市区边缘的一个工业园区。

2. one-in-a-million：凤毛麟角，百里挑一。影片中，在飞机紧急迫降的危机时刻，Alex对Marty说："你是万里挑一的好朋友。"

You're one in a million.你真是大好人。

3. kiss the ground：这里可以直接理解成轻触地面。影片中Skipper说："慢慢来，小心翼翼的接触地面。"

除此之外，kiss the ground还有屈辱，屈服，彻底打败的意思。例如：

I made him kiss the dust. 我使他屈服。

4. checkmate：(象棋)将死,这里指使...进退维谷, 使...一败涂地。

Keep somebody in checkmate. 使某人无以施其技。

It was checkmate to years of resistance.多年抵抗就此以失败告终。

5. live with：承认, 忍受（不愉快的事情）。影片中Skipper听完伤亡报告后说："这数字我可以接受。" 来看例句：

Can you live with this arrangement? 这么安排你能接受吗？
