美國(guó)人如何找工作

影片對(duì)白:

Bruce:Fantastic dinner, Bree. This was a great idea.

Bree: Well, I just wanted to get you together with Tom here. I thought you two mighthit it off.

Bruce:Yeah. Tom, Bree says you used to be quite the ad wiz.

Tom: Oh, I don't know.

Lynette: He's being modest. He was the best.

Bruce:Good, because I'm looking for someone to head up a new division.

Bree: I'm going to put some coffee on. Orson, would you give me a hand? Let these three chat.

Bruce:So do you think you have any interest in getting back in the game?

Tom: I don't know. The timing's a little weird.

Bruce:How so?

Tom: I don't know.

Lynette: Well, Tom was just running a very successful restaurant, and he just sold it at a handsome profit. So he's waiting for the right opportunity. You might have to do a little selling here, Bruce.

Bruce:I guess the good ones are always the hardest to land.

Lynette: Yeah

Bruce:Let megive it a shot. We represent a small stable of elite nonfiction authors from all over the world. So you'd be working closely with those writers to come up with creative approaches to selling their books.

Lynette: That sounds...amazing.

Tom: I don't know. Are there more potatoes?

Lynette: You can have mine. Stop saying, "I don't know."

Tom: Sounds like there's a lot of traveling. I'm not, you know, really big on living out of a suitcase.

Bruce:Even to do two weeks at the book fair in Paris while you stay at a five-star hotel?

Lynette: Paris?

Tom: Like France?

Lynette: Yes, like the greatest city in the world.

Bruce:Gee, I'm getting Lynette excited. Too bad you don't have any advertising experience.

Lynette: Actually, I have 12 years of experience.

Bruce:Really?

Lynette: Yeah. I was account executive for eight years, v.p. for four more after that, and by the way, I wrote my graduate thesis on the rise of the nonfiction novel. I know. So what kind of starting salary are we talking about?

Tom: Lynette, can I see you for a sec?

Lynette: Okay. Bruce, could you hold that thought? I'm gonna be right back.

Bree: Well, we're on pins and needles. How's it going?

妙語佳句,活學(xué)活用

1.hit it off: 合得來。影片中Bree介紹失業(yè)的Tom與書商認(rèn)識(shí):“我是想讓你和Tom相互認(rèn)識(shí)一下,我覺得你們倆會(huì)很投緣。”來看例句:

He hit it off with them from the start. 從一開頭他就和他們相處得很好。

These foreign students hit it off with the natives. 這些外國(guó)留學(xué)生和本地人相處得很好。

2.wiz: [美口]奇才(wizard 的縮略)。求賢若渴的Bruce對(duì)Tom說:“聽Bree說你曾是廣告才子。”

He is the math wiz of his class. 他是他班的數(shù)學(xué)天才。

3.head up:主持,領(lǐng)導(dǎo),負(fù)責(zé)。Bruce說:“我正在找人開拓新市場(chǎng)。”

Mr Jones will head up the new company.瓊斯先生將是新公司的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。

4.timing: 時(shí)機(jī),時(shí)機(jī)的選擇。影片中Tom對(duì)突如其來的面試很不適應(yīng),隨口說:“這個(gè)時(shí)機(jī)有點(diǎn)不妥。”

the timing of a play 一場(chǎng)戲的時(shí)間安排

The timing of our statement is very opportune. 我們發(fā)表聲明選擇的時(shí)機(jī)很恰當(dāng)。

5.give it a shot:試一試,試試看。Bruce以為Tom的漫不經(jīng)心是故作姿態(tài),進(jìn)一步說:“才俊難求啊,我來試試。”

Give it your best shot 竭盡所能

6.live out of a suitcase:老是旅居客地,提著衣箱過日子。美國(guó)人有重視家庭生活的傳統(tǒng),Tom繼續(xù)冷言冷語:“我可不想總是過舟車勞頓的生活。”

I usually live out of a suitcase on vacation. 一到假期我就四處旅游。

7.on pins and needles:如坐針氈,坐立不安。躲在廚房里的Bree見Tom進(jìn)來,急忙詢問面試情況:“我們緊張死了,進(jìn)展怎么樣了?”來看例句:

The close game had us on pins and needles till the very end. 由于比賽雙方勢(shì)均力敵,我們一直很緊張,到結(jié)束時(shí)才平靜下來。

Knowing that the old man was dying, all of us were on pins and needles. 獲悉這位老人病危,我們大家坐立不安。
