《英语电影视听说》Unit 2Part 2 Culture ReflectionHistory of the Hippie MovementAfter the two world wars people wanted to break away from the traditional values imposed on them. The young, in particular, became rebellious, distained social norms and yearned to establish themselves ideologically. The Hippie Movement thus began in the United States as a youth movement in 1960s. Composed mostly of the younger population, hippies inherited a tradition of cultural dissent from bohemians and beatniks of the Beat Generation in the late 1950s. The Hippie Movement started in San Francisco, California and spread across the whole country. By 1965, hippies had become a discernible social group in the US. Through Canada, the movement soon expanded to other countries such as the United Kingdom, Australia, Mexico, Brazil and even Japan. Although the number of hippies declined in the mid-1970s, the kernel of their belif lingers and has been infused with new meanings by younger generations.Effects of Single Parent Families on Single Mothers and Their ChildrenPast research has indicated that children from single parent families, especially lone-mother households are more likely to have emotional, academic and financial problems. Children living without their biological fathers often feel unhappy, showing signs of depression, lack of self-esteem, irresponsibility, hostility to adults and other children and even antisocial behaviors. They have more troubles in school. Such children are more likely to score poorly on tests, have difficulty getting along with teachers and other students, play truant and be expelled from school. Therefore, children from single parent families are inclined to engage in offensive behavior, teenage pregnancy, excessive drinking and smoking, and drug abuse.Due to their lower earning capacity, most single mothers live in poverty. They have to struggle to keep balance between their work and family life. Economic stress becomes one of the strongest predictors of depression in single mothers. The chronic strain of poverty often makes single mothers suffer from poor health and psychological distress which are detrimental both to themselves and to their children. On the one hand, they are less likely to communicate with-their children effectively; on the other hand, they themselves are too vulnerable to embrace new life."No man is an island."Originally this is a line written by John Donne (1572—1631), a great British poet and preacher. John Donne is a representative of the "metaphysical school". His poetry is noted for vitality of rhythms, vibrancy of language and vividness of imagery.Meditation XVIIJohn DonneNo man is an island,entire of itself;every man is a piece of the continent,a part of the main;if a clod be washed away by the sea,Europe is the lessas well as if a promontory were,as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were:any man's death diminishes me,because I am involved in mankind,and therefore,never send to know for whom the bell tolls;it tolls for thee.John Bon JoviAs the lead singer and founder of the rock band Bon Jovi, John Bon Jovi, born in 1962, is an American musician, songwriter and actor. He also wrote "No Man Is an Island" in his song Santa Fe.Vocabulary⏹thought-provoking: adj. 发人深省的;引起思考的⏹royalty:(专利权的)使用费;(著作的)版税⏹bestir oneself: 发奋,振作精神⏹inadvertently: 非故意地,出于无心地⏹attributable to:由于,由…引起⏹Hippie:嬉皮士chick: [俚语]少女;少妇⏹inclination:倾向,爱好⏹come to (do): gradually do sth⏹confide: vi. 信赖;吐露秘密⏹spree: 狂欢(尤指花钱)⏹predominant:有影响的⏹icon:具有代表性的人(或物)⏹psychedelic rock:迷幻摇滚⏹eco-friendly:环境友好的⏹grooming:仪表⏹sandal:凉鞋⏹bell-bottoms: 喇叭裤⏹peasant blouse:村姑衫⏹head scarf: 头巾⏹headband: 头饰带⏹plait:把…编成辫Task 4: Interview—ListeningKeys:(1)a funny, touching movie(2)all men are islands(3)Happy and depression-free life!(4)become emotionally connected to each other(5)which he is completely unaccustomed to(6)growing up has nothing to do with age(7)take the role of a responsible adult(8)far beyond his twelve years of experience(9)get to know the real meaning of life(10)life can be more than just depressing。
Appreciating CinemaPart One:Categorization of genresGenreSocial DramaRomanceGangsterWar filmScience fictionFantasyWesternDisasterCrimeEpicActionMusical_____________________________________________________________________ BlockbusterFilm noirComedy intended togeneratelaughterHorror intended to horrifyThriller intended to thrillPart Two: The basic storiesThere are a limited number of stories that form the basis for all fictional narratives.·Achilles Example: Superman·Candide Example:ForrestGump·Cinderella Example:Pretty Woman·Circe Example:FatalAttraction·Faust Example:Wall Street·Orpheus Example: Born on the Fourth of July·Romeo and Juliet Example: Shakespeare in Love, Ghost ·Tristan The Graduate·The Wandering Jew Example: The English PatientPart Three:The Classic Three-Act Linear Structure(经典三幕式直线结构)The majority of Hollywood films employs the classic three-act linear structure(or a variation of it). The three-act structure implies that the film can be divided into three acts.Act 1 would normally be expected to occupy the first quarter of the film; Act 2 would occupy the next half; and Act 3 would occupy the final quarter.Each act has a different function. For a typical two—hour Hollywood film, the act divisions would be as follows.Act Time FunctionAct 1 0-30 minutes set-upAct 2 30-90 minutes development (conflictandconfrontation) Act 3 90-120 minutes resolution and denouncement(结局)Part Four: Alternative Narrative Structures·Episodic Structure章回式结构Episodic narratives follow the protagonist through a series of potentially unrelated adventures. As in thethree-act structure, there are definite turning points at which the fortunes of the protagonist turn from good to bad or vice versa; however, unlike the three-act structure, the number of such turning points is not limited. ·Hero’s Journey Structure英雄旅程结构The hero’s journey narrative forms the underlying narrative structure of many myths and legends; and it is also to be found in many successful Hollywood films. The narrative occurs in a number of stages, which can be simplified as follows:1.Call to adventure2.Journey through unfamiliar World3.Supreme ordeal4.Reward5.Return and reintegration into societyPart Five: SubplotMost Hollywood films have one or more subplots. Subplots are additional stories(secondary plots) that are linked to the main plot and have an influence upon it;they don’t require separate protagonists, but they do require separate actions.The relationship between the main plot and the subplotscan take any one of four forms. These are: ·Complementary·Contradictory·Setup·ComplicatingPart Six: Symbols and MotifsA symbol is something that stands for or suggests something else, usually on account of a relationship, association, convention or resemblance. A motif is a recurring feature or idea related to the theme of the film; frequently it will be a recurring symbol.Question:Symbols may have different meanings in China and the West. List some of the differencesDifferent symbolic values of colors, animals, and number symbols used in the Western cultural tradition alongside their possible meanings and their different symbolic values in the Chinese cultural tradition.Symbol Meaning in the West Meaning in ChinaRed anger, sexuality, passion good fortune, happiness,prosperityWhite purity deathGreen envy, inexperience;the peace; the environment environmentYellow royal power and authorityOwl wisdom bad luckLion majesty, strength, braveryDragon evil majesty, success,goodfortunePhoenix rebirth, resurrection good fortune,precious Turtle slowness longevityPeacock arrogance, vanity good fortune3the Trinity( God, Christ, the Holy Ghost)13Bad luck666 the Devil good luck8 wealth4 deathPartSeven: Identifying ThemeIn practical terms, how does one identify and interpret the theme of the film? Since theme is a complicated and variable phenomenonand can be expressed in so many forms, it isimpossible to give a step-by-step guide. However, it is still possible to outline some basic approaches:·The Title of the FilmFilms will commonly use titles to point out their themes. ·Names of CharactersScriptwriters may use the names of their characters to suggest both something about the characters themselves, and also something about the overall theme of the film. ·SymbolismSymbols, motifs, and symbolic settings may indicate the theme of the film.·Character ConflictThe theme may emerge from the conflict between characters, especially when the characters are representative of deeper values and attitudes.·Speeches and DialogueSpeeches may also indicate the themes of a film. In About a Boy, for example, the protagonist describes his theory of “island living”( i.e.a radically independent lifestyle) in a speech addressed directly to the audience. In fact, this leads directly to the theme:Absolute independence is an undesirable state.·SubplotsThe main plot carries the main burden of the narrative. The subplot, on the other hand, can be used more flexibly to explore the thematic implications of the film.·Social ContextThemes can emerge from the interaction of a film’s subject matter and its social context.Take Forrest Gump as example·Episodic Structure and Repetition(章回式结构和循环)The narrative structure of Forrest Gump is basically episodic: that is, it is made up of separate, loosely connected situations that occur in the life of the protagonist.What holds together the narrative is not the plot but the figure of Gump himself.Accompanying this episodic structure is a pattern of repetitions. The scenein which Gump is bulliedby boys from his hometown is repeated a littlelater in his life, as is Jenny’s famous exhortation(告诫) to Forrest(Run, Forrest! Run). The act of getting on theschool bus to find no one willing to offer a seat is also repeated when Gump sets off for Vietnam. Gump’s meetings with American presidents occur time after time, as do reports of assassinations of prominent figures in recenthistory. Perhaps the most profound repetition, though, is the birth of the young Forrest Gump and his own first trip on the school bus: This time the repetition is accompanied by a change for the better, as the young Gump has all the charm of his father with none of the stupidity. The overall effect of these repetitions is to create an sense of circularity---the reassuring feeling that history repeats itself.Plot and SubplotForrest Gump is something of an exception because the story of Gump’s life and the plot of the film are almost identical. That is to say, the main plot is , essentially, nothing more than the story of Gump’s life: Gump is born, goes to school, goes to college, goes to Vietnam, comes home and sets up a shrimping business, meets Jenny again, runs across the country, etc.The subplot, which deals largely with Jenny’s life story,is radically different. It gives a lot of clues as to what has happened to Jenny during the course of her life, but very little of this is actually shown. We infer that she has caught AIDS , but none of this information is part of the subplot itself. Exercise Use your knowledge of the different kinds of subplot to categorize the Jenny subplot.The Jenny subplot can be categorized as both: ·Complicating: Jenny is Gump’s love interest, and so is adriving force in the main plot. ·Contradictory: Jenny’s underlying motivation(intellectualcuriosity) and attitude to life(experimental)are opposite to those of GumpVogler’s Seven Character ArchetypesChristopher Vogler, formerly story analyst at Disney and nowdirector of Development at Fox 2000 publisheda book, The Writer’s Journey: MythicStructure for Storytellers and Screenwriters,which has been called “the current industrybible”.Vogler argues that there are seven basic character functions:hero, mentor(导师), threshhold guardian(关卡守卫者), herald(信使), shapeshift(变化者), shadow(影子), and trickster(骗子,魔术师).These characters functions are reallybest thought of as character archetypes: thatis , they are mythological types to whichhumans respond on a deep instinctive levelbecause they represent the basic unchangingfeatures of human experiences.HeroMentor:Threshhold GuardianHeraldShapeshiftShadowTricksterThe Devil Wears Prada comedygenre ComedyThe Devil Wears Prada is a 2006 comedy-drama film, a loose screen adaptation of Lauren Weisberger's 2003 novel of the same name.Answer the following questionsa) Why does Miranda decide to hire Andrea Sachs,a girl who lacks styleand seems not to fit in there?

A fashion magazine and its editor-in-chief provide the movie with the fundamental storyline.The cardinal rule dominating the fashion realm is “thinness”, which is ingeniously revealed in The Devil Wears Prada. Behind this obsession with one’s body image lies a pervasive problem of anorexia( ie, loss of the wish to eat)-------- one of the main types of eating disorders.Cast•Anne Hathaway as Andrea "Andy" Sachs:•Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly:•Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton:•Stanley Tucci as Nigel:•Simon Baker as Christian Thompson:•Adrian Grenier as Nate Cooper: Andrea's boyfriend•Tracie Thoms as Lily: Andrea's close friend, who runs an art gallery.•Rich Sommer as Doug: A college friend of AndreaMemorable Lines1.Fashion is not about utility.

Miranda Priestly is the finest possible guardian of that beacon. Setting a standard that inspires people across the globe.

Do you think that two people will develop a close friendshipdespite great difference in age?Memorable lines1.Setting: At the beginning of the movie, Will expresses his opinion that all men are islands. He believes that this is an island age and explains the reason.A hundred years ago, for instance, you had to depend on other people. No one had TV or CDs or DVDs or videos or home espresso(蒸馏咖啡)makers. As a matter of fact, they didn’t have anything cool, whereas now, you see, you can make youself a little island paradise.

It came down to me and me alone.3.Setting: At the end of the movie, Will changes his attitude.Every man is an island. I stand by that. But clearly some men are part of island chains.

It was written by Ron Nyswaner and directed by Jonathan Demme. The film stars Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. It was inspired in part by the story of Geoffrey Bowers, an attorney who in 1987 sued the law firm Baker & McKenzie for wrongful dismissal in one of the first AIDS discrimination cases.Answer the following questions1. What makes Andrew Beckett decide to sue the law firm which he haspreviously served?2. At first glance, Miller is a w orld apart from Beckett’s interests: he is a personal injury lawyer, better known for television commercials than for legal talent, and has had conflicts with Beckett in the courtroom before(Miller lost). Why does Beckett ask Miller to represent him?3. Why does Joe Miller initially refuse to take the case?4. What finally makes Joe Miller take the case?5. What do you think of the scene where Beckett plays an aria(咏叹调)from hisfavorite opera for Miller?Answers:1. Beckett’s bosses claim he has been fired for incompetence andmisplacing an important document for an important client, but Beckett is sure that it’s because he has AIDS. He considers that he is a victim ofprejudice, and is determined to win his case even as his own life begins to fade.2. Because the law firm is so powerful and prestigious, and Beckett is a gayinfected with AIDS, no other lawyer will take the case. After many rejections, with no one else to turn to, Andrew Beckett consults Joe Miller to help him pursue litigation.(诉讼)3. Joe Miller represents the everyman who harbours homophobic tendencies.He does not like homosexuals, who make his skin crawl. He also hasextreme fear of AIDs, and can hardly keep himself from wiping his hand on his pants after shaking Beckett’s hand.4. A chain of events has turned Miller’s emotions in line with Beckett’s case.His wife has a baby, from which he has learned what birth is about, and then he has found out about death too. He comes across the ailing Beckett in the library. Seeing through the face of AIDS, he sees that there’s a dying man there. Then he has a change of heart, recognizing a hint of familiar discrimination in the way Beckett is being treated. He is essentially homophobic but he is also against prejudice. After initial reluctance, he takes the case.5. It’s a brilliant scene where Beckett tries to give a passionate translation ofthe aria “La Momma Morta” while Miller looks on in stunned silence.Miller’s isn’t an opera fan, but as the music plays and Beckett talks over it,passionately explaining his acceptance of death in the midst ofdisplaying his continuing passion for life, Miller undergoes a conversation of the soul. And finally, what Miller sees is a man who loves life and does not want to leave it.Character AnalysisAndrew Beckett: a victim of prejudice, gifted, genuine, forgiving, kindJoe Miller: honest, warm-hearted, prepared for fight for justice, relaxed, witty Charles Wheeler: elegant, smart, selfish, hypocriticalThe setting of the film Philadelphia, which concerns the struggle of an AIDS sufferer to assert his legal rights in the face of prejudice, issymbolic. Think about the (1) the literal meaning of the city’s name, and (2) the city’s role in American history, try to explain why.(1) the literal meaning of Philadelphia is the city of brotherly love. The prefix“phila-“ means “love”; it also occurs in the words “philanthropy”( love of mankind) and “philosophy” (love of wisdom). “Delphia” comes from the Greek “adelphus” meaning “brother”. This is significant because the film seeks to contrast the old ideals of America (i.e. love and tolerance) with the reality of modern prejudice( against AIDS sufferers).(2) Philadelphia was the city in which the first public reading of theDeclaration of Independence occurred. It is also the city in which theLiberty Bell is located. This is significant because the Declaration ofIndependence states America’s commitment to individual’s rights to “ life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”. These are precisely the rights that are denied to the protagonist of the film. The film uses this symbolicsetting to draw attention to the way that the old ideals of the AmericanRepublic are being systematically ignored in the face of the AIDS threat.。

超有共鸣的电影雅思part2英文回答:Resonant films are those that strike a chord with the audience, evoking strong emotions and leaving a lasting impact. These are the films that we can relate to on a personal level, either through the characters, the storyline, or the themes explored. One such film that I found incredibly resonant is "The Shawshank Redemption."The Shawshank Redemption, directed by Frank Darabont,is a powerful and moving film that tells the story of Andy Dufresne, a banker who is sentenced to life in Shawshank State Penitentiary for the murder of his wife and her lover, despite his claims of innocence. The film explores themesof hope, friendship, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.The character of Andy Dufresne, played brilliantly by Tim Robbins, is someone that many viewers can empathizewith. His unwavering hope and determination in the most hopeless of situations is truly inspiring. The friendship he forms with fellow inmate Red, portrayed by Morgan Freeman, is also incredibly touching and adds another layer of depth to the film.The film's message of never giving up, even in the darkest of times, is something that resonates with audiences on a deep level. It reminds us of the power of hope and the importance of maintaining our humanity, even in the most inhumane of conditions.中文回答:有共鸣的电影是那些触动观众内心,引发强烈情感并留下深刻印象的电影。

“幽默是释放”是指我们看到别人打破社会规则或者看到隐藏的反社会的欲望的释放。
比如说阿甘在越战中中了枪,他自己的陈述是“好像有东西跳起来咬了我一口”,打破了我们正常人严谨而符合逻辑的思维方法,让我们发笑。

(1)早期电影(19世纪末20世纪初)1826年摄影技术的发明给电影的出现打下了基础。
1889年柯达(Kodak)公司研制出一种又薄又软的底片即赛璐珞(celluloid),这种底片可以高速穿过镜头,拍摄影像,并且可以高速连续地在投影仪上放映。
另外一个突破性发明是美国的爱迪生(Edison)和法国的吕米埃克兄弟(Lumiere brothers 法国人)分别发明的可以拍摄连续活动的摄像机,于1895年拍摄了世界上第一部电影(《火车进站》),这标志着美国电影史的开端。
这个时期的电影主要通过镍币影院(nickelodeons一种门票一律五分镍币即五美分的小型电影院)放映。
早期电影的制作基本是依靠“摄影师制度”(cameraman system),即每部电影都是由个人(摄影师)制作,这个人负责策划、编剧、摄影和剪辑。
这时的电影业被两个公司垄断:爱迪生和贝尔格拉夫(Edison and Biograph)公司,两家公司合办了电影专利公司MPPC(Motion Pictures Patents Company)。
从美学角度看,早期电影最显著的特点是倾向于记录和重视现实生活的某些方面,这种“真实摄影”(actually filming)是对单个人,名人或运动员,地点(风景区)或者行动(日常生活或新闻事件)进行长距离的连续拍摄。
虚构的场景也不过是小品、歌舞杂耍或对真实事件的重现。
这一时期的电影主要依赖于景象,而不是叙事。
喜剧小品、魔术表演是其核心内容,我们最熟悉的是卓别林(著名的英国喜剧演员,编剧,导演,喜剧电影的奠基人)的电影。

What's more, Brad's president used a little tip to help Brad speak out the reason why his behavior was strange and from then on Brad became more confient. In a word,Brad's dream of becoming a teacher is somehow comes from his mother and president's love and patience.That's all,thank you.2.Describe the change of Brad cohen's father and the way he shows his love.How you think of it?At first,Brad's father didn't know anything about Brad's illness,so he always got angry with Brad since Brad made a lot of noise and he thought Brad was naughty and did it on purpose.Then,after Brad's mother proved that Brad's strange behavior was because of his illness and worked out the name of the illness, Brad's father gradually understood Brad's behavior,but he still got passive about Brad's illness and thought Brad will never become a teacher.Finally,when Brad attempted to become a good teacher and got great achievement, Brad's father got really proud of him and supported Brad in his own way.The way Brad's father shows his love is silent but supportive.From the movie,When Brad was young,his father often took him and his brother to play baseball,since Brad's parents have been divorced and Brad lives with his mother,he can hardly play with father,in this way, Brad's father created more time to be with Brad and make him happier. What's more ,on the day Brad took the exams for further study, the governor didn't gave Brad the right he deserved,so Brad's father fought for him and helped Brad took the exam smoothly.We can also see Brad's father send book shelters to Brad's school to support Brad.Brad's father show his love in a silent way,as the saying goes,father's love is just like a mountain without voice and words,but powerful and lasting.I think Brad's father is really a good father,if he could show his love in a more appropriate way ,it will be better.That's all,thank you.3.What do you think is the main factor that leads to his success?From where I stand,I think it is Brad's patient、positive attitude and perseverance(毅力)that make him become successful.Firstly,Brad is a patient man.At the beginning of the film,Brad'sfather can't put up with Brad's bad disease for he is always making terrible noise wherever he is.But Brad never get angry about his father's disunderstanding,he just explained to his father again and again.While Brad was taking classes,the teacher asked him not to make noise,he also explained to teacher that he couldn't help himself instead of becoming angry.Then,when Brad graduated,he hunted for job everywhere and made up his mind to become a good teacher.However,almost all schools refuse him for his illness.Brad's father also advised him to give up,but Brad just kept sending his resume(简历)to different schools and mading signals on the school of map.Brad is such a patient man that he will keep waiting until the last minute.His patience helps him a lot on his way to become successful.Secondly,Brad is also a man with positive attitude,which is vital for him to get successful.We can see from the movie,Brad's smile is just like sunshine,make all of us warm and happy.Though Brad's illness put plenty of stones in his way of his life.He succeed in leading a wonderful life.Brad was humorous,his special way to educate students and humor always fill his classes with laughter,it also help him meets romantic love.Finally,Brad is a man with perseverance.He never gives up and do everything with full energy.It plays an important role in his success.That's all,thank you.4.How should we treat those who have congenital physical defects?We should treat them as normal people,try our best to help them and give them the right they deserve.From the movie,we all can see that Brad met so many difficulties since he was born with illness.He struggled for equal right for a long time and finally get successful,but under his success,he suffered too much.We should really do something for those who have congenital physical defects.Although the medicine science is well develped nowadays, there are still many disabled people living around us.Their disability makes them live in a different way from ours, but they're also a important part of our society. So it is our responsibilities to help them.We can tell some stories to the blind children to let them know there is still a lot of hope in their life. We can draw beautiful pictures to deaf people to let them feel the beauty of the world. We can help friends in the wheelchair go around to let them see the scenery like us... Many people may think these are small things,but they're really important to those disabled people. It may be easy to do such things for once, twice... but if we do them for years,things will become really different.That's all ,thank you.5.If you are congenitally or acquired abnormal,how will you deal with the unfair treatment?Firstly,I will hold a positive attitude like Brad.Secondly,I will try my best to make friends with others and we can help each other in different situations.Last but not least,I will make full use of law as my weapon to fight for my rights.Positive attitude is really vital in everyone's daily life,especially when I am congenitally or acquired abnormal.Born with illness,others may feel sorry about my consition,So I should become more strong and positive.In this way,I can complete my spiritual(精神的) world and get some comfort since my body is uncompleted.Making friends with others not only can others help me to do something that I couldn't do by myself,but also I can help others in some way.It can prove that everyone has his own strength and weakness.Although I am a disabled,I am abled to help others too.In a word,I can't bear the situation that I always accept others help but never make commitments.Finally,I can use law to defeat all the gossip.In this society,somethings can't be solved without the help of law.It clearlyclarify the truth that we disabled have the same rights as normal people.Those who see us through glasses with color,will never win in front of the law.That's all,thank you.第三单元P19 最后一题8.Retell the love story from the point of views of each character.Iris:Oh my godness,why all the things seem to go wrong in my life?I has been secretly loving Graham for a long time,but he just get married with my colleague.So I decided to exchange my house with a stranger named Amanda for my Christmas holiday.Luckily,the house is grand and I met my real love there!His name is Miles,his talent and considerate really attract me so much.I enjoy the holiday and the new life it brings to me!Miles:I met Iris by accident.It's like a dream that one day I came to Amanda's house,I planed to meet Amanda, however there was no Amanda but a woman I had never seen before.

Homophonic puns谐音双关2. Homographic puns 词义双关⏹A. Homonyms同形异义⏹B. Polysemy一词多义3. Asteismus岐解双关14.Functions of puns⏹①. 用于广告文体,作为一种特殊的交际模式,有其明显的目的性,而双关语又具有简洁凝练风趣幽默,新颖别致等语用效果,能够突出广告的特点,广告商利用语言文字同音或同义,同音异义的关系,使一句话关涉两件事,一明一暗,一真一假,即引人注日,又引起联想、⏹Money doesn't grow on trees. But it blossoms at our branches.Money doesn't grow on trees. But it blossoms at our branches.钱长在树上不行,但在我们这“行”行!这是英国劳埃德银行((Loyd Bank)外路牌广告其中branch一词有双重含义:一为字而含义,承接上句中的tree指树枝;而更深一层的含义则为分行、支行,即该银行的各个分支机构、事实上这个)’告的真正意图是写召人们将钱存到劳埃德银行。
因此该)’告的言外之意是:把钱存到劳埃德银行吧.在那里钱会不断增值。
⏹又如:Ask for More⏹这是摩尔香烟在广告语中树立的双关典范、它巧妙地使用一词的双重意义:more是一个副词,表示‘更加,更多”;首字母大写⏹之后,变成了品牌名称,表示‘摩尔”、这则广告使人们轻松记住了商品的品牌,同时又给人留下难忘的幽默:‘再来一支,还抽摩尔”。
②. 用于日常生话在口常生话中双关是很常见的,使用者可以更为巧妙和幽默地表达隐含的“特殊”意义,使之不太过直白。
“Forth floor", shouted the passenger to the elevator.“Here you are, son."“How dare yon call me ‘son’?’,“Sir, I called, or whatever. I‘ve brought you up anyway.对乘客一开始的出言不逊,电梯管理员并没有以牙还牙地吼叫,而是利用双关语反唇相讥一“bring up ;(把你带上来;把你抚养成人),让这个无礼的乘客无言以对。
⏹③. 用于谜语中双关用于谜语中使谜语更加隐秘、有内涵⏹----Which runs faster, heat or cold?⏹----Heat runs faster, because you can easily catch cold.⏹这里。
Cold本意是冷,而它和catch”抓住”在一起则表示”感冒”了,热没有类似的用法,所以热和冷相比较,热要跑得。
④. 用于笑话中笑话中使用双关,使语言更加俏皮和更有幽默性.---What did the telephone girl say to you when she broke the engagement.---She said: "Ring off.“电话女郎在切断电话是跟你说什么了?她说:“把戒指拿下来。
”这是由两个双关词组构成的两个习语、Break theengagement意为解除婚姻;或电话打完后切断电话. Ring off的意思是把戒指拿下来;或挂断电话。
这两个习语同样也是一词多义的现象来引起歧义.⏹Judge: “What made you think that you could park your car there?”⏹Tourist: “Well, there was a big sign that read: ‘Fine for Parking.’”⏹“你怎么想把车子停在那里?”⏹“喔,那里有个大牌子,上面写着‘停车的好地方。
(停车罚款)’”⏹原文:Professor of physics: What is matter?⏹Student: Never mind.⏹Professor: Then what is mind?⏹Student: It doesn’t matter.译文:物理教授:“什么是物质?”(“你怎么啦?”)学生:“它不是精神。
”(“不要紧。
”)教授:“那什么是精神?”(“那你介意什么?”)学生:“它不是物质。
”(“我不介意什么。
”)⏹The professor tapped on his desk and shouted, “Gentle men, Order!”The entire class yelled, “beer!”教授敲着桌子大声说:“先生们,安静!”全班一致回答“啤酒”⑤. 文学作品中。
在英语文学作品中双关语有着广泛的应用,对于刻画人物性格起到很大的作用、如:海明威的着名小说A Farewell to Arms,标题中的arms ,很多西力评论家指出是一语双关、Arms是多义词,联系小说内容,arms具有双重含义,一层意义为武器,象征帝国主义战争;另一层意义为手臂,象征爱情、同时,这也与小说本身的两大主题相符:战争与爱情、小说的标题具备了双重含义:永别了,武器; 同时,永别了,爱情、15.Puzzles1. --When can a person become two persons?--When one is so angry that he is besides himself.Or --When he doubles up with laughter.2. --When a man feels girlish?--When he makes his maiden speech.3. --When is a very angry man like a clock of fifty minutes past twelve?--When he is just going to strike one.4. –Why shouldn’t you believe a man in bed?--Because he is always lying.5. –When did the blind man suddenly see?--When he took up a hammer and saw.6. –How would a greedy man punctuate “I saw a one-hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk?”--He would just make a dash after it.16.Quiz1. I was arrested at the airport. Just because I was greeting my cousin Jack! All that I said was "Hi Jack", but very loud.2. A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two-tyred.3.
