百日行动派之“美食总动员”之 Anyone can cook —— Day 32

 

100天,50部,重温经典动画,积累,感动,变化——Day32...



大家好,今天是2016年4月21日,是我发起百日行动派的第32天,加油哦~ 100天,50部,让我们一起重温经典动画,在积累中感动,在行动中变化吧~

重温50部经典动画,小积累,就会带来大变化~



即使是再微不足道的小人物,也有怀揣梦想的权力,哪怕他只是一只生活在阴沟里的老鼠。别看人家是老鼠,可也有一个好听的名字——小米,而他的梦想是成为法国五星级饭店厨房的掌勺。



由于在嗅觉方面有着无与伦比的天赋,小米的一生都浸透在“厨师”的光辉理想之中,并且努力地在朝这个方向艰难地迈进,丝毫不去理会摆在自己面前的事实:厨师是这个世界上对老鼠最怀有病态恐惧的职业。不要以为所有的老鼠都像小米这样“不切实际”,至少他的家人都还算正常,而且对于小米的异想天开皆嗤之以鼻,快乐而满足地过着老鼠都在过的与垃圾堆为伴的生活。这个时候的小米已经有点走火入魔了,凡是看到能吃的东西,他都会情不自禁地想象。



昨天我们聊到小米为美食评论家的到来准备了普罗旺斯焖菜,那么,当一贯挑剔的评论家得知如此的美味佳肴竟然是一只老鼠烹饪的,会作何感想呢?



一起来看看吧:



一开始 Ego认为那是个玩笑

REMY: At first, Ego thinks it's a joke.

但随着Linguini的解释 Ego的微笑消失了

But as Linguini explains, Ego's smile disappears.

(RATS SQUEAKING )

除了偶尔提个问题 他面无表情

He doesn't react beyond asking an occasional question.

故事说完后 Ego站了起来 感谢我们的晚餐

And when the story is done, Ego stands, thanks us for the meal...

谢谢你们的晚餐

Thank you for the meal.

然后就离开了 再没说别的

...and leaves without another word.

第二天 他的评论发表了

The following day his review appears.

在许多方面 评论家的工作很轻松

EGO: In many ways, the work of a critic is easy.

我们不怎么需要冒险 却能享受...

We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those

比那些提供自身作品供我们评判的人高出一等的地位

who offer up their work and theirselves to our judgment.

我们热衷于批评别人 写者和读者都觉得有趣

We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read.

但我们批评家必须面对的苦涩事实是: 总的说来

But the bitter truth we critics must face is that in the grand scheme of things,

任何普通的垃圾食品都可能比...

the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful

我们对它的批评 来得更有意义

than our criticism designating it so.

但有时 评论家真正需要冒险的是

But there are times when a critic truly risks something

发现和呵护新生事物

and that is in the discovery and defense of the new.

这世界对新天才 新创意常常太过刻薄

The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations.

这些后起之秀需要朋友

The new needs friends.

昨晚 我品尝了某道全新的

Last night, I experienced something new,

由一位奇特而又出乎意料的厨师制作的美味佳肴

an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source.

那道美味和它的制作者...

To say that both the meal and its maker

同时挑战了我对美食的偏见

have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking

我的看法太保守了

is a gross under statement.

他们彻底颠覆了我的观点

They have rocked me to my core.

过去 我毫不隐晦地蔑视...

In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain

Gusteau主厨的名言"人人能烹饪"

for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook. "

但直到现在 我才真正理解他的意思

But I realize only now do I truly understand what he meant.

不是每个人都能成为伟大的艺术家

Not everyone can become a great artist,

但伟大的艺术家可能来自任何地方

but a great artist can come from anywhere.

很难想像还有比Gusteau餐馆的...

It is difficult to imagine more humble origins

天才厨师出身更为低贱的

than those ofthe genius now cooking at Gusteau's,

这位厨师 在我这个评论家看来

who is, in this critic's opinion,

是全法国最顶尖的大厨

nothing less than the finest chef in France.

我很快将再次光临Gusteau餐馆 期待更多美味佳肴

I will be returning to Gusteau's soon, hungry for more.

那是个美好的夜晚

REMY: It was a great night.

我生命中最快乐的一天

(CHUCKLING) The happiest of my life.

但生活中唯一可预言的就是它的不可预言性

But the only thing predictable about life is its unpredictability.

我们不得不放了Skinner和卫生检查员

Well, we had to let Skinner and the health inspector loose,

当然了 他们告发了我们

and of course they ratted us out.

食物不再重要

The food didn't matter.

一旦传出厨房里有老鼠的谣言

Once it got out there were rats in the kitchen,

伙计 餐馆被迫关闭

oh, man, the restaurant was closed

Ego失去了工作和他的名声

and Ego lost his job and his credibility.

但别为他感到难过

But don't feel too bad for him.

作为一个小生意投资者 他干得不错

He's doing very well as a small business investor.

- 他似乎很快乐 - 你怎么知道?

-He seems very happy. -How do you know?

我该走了 晚餐高峰时间到了

Got to go. Dinner rush.

你知道他有多喜欢这道菜

You know how he likes it.

谢谢 小厨师

Thanks, Little Chef.

今晚你需要上甜点吗?

Can I interest you in a dessert this evening?

- 难道你不总是这样做吗? - 你喜欢什么甜点?

-Don't you always? -Which one would you like?

给我上份惊喜

Surprise me.

(RATS CHUCKLING )

相信我 这故事我说起来更生动好吧?

Hey, believe me, that story gets better when I tell it, okay?

快来 送点吃的过来我们饿死了!

Come on. Bring some food over here, we're starving!



又是一个happy ending呢,芭老师每当看到小人物梦想成真的时刻,总是会很激动,你呢?

在这段精彩的片段中,有这样几句话我们一起回顾下:
昨晚 我品尝了某道全新的
Last night, I experienced something new.
Gusteau主厨的名言"人人能烹饪"
for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook. "
不是每个人都能成为伟大的艺术家
Not everyone can become a great artist,
 
但伟大的艺术家可能来自任何地方
but a great artist can come from anywhere.
你记住了吗?小积累,就会带来大变化哦~


你注意到这些有阴影的词语了吗?

它们是不定代词,也叫做复合代词~

复合不定代词是由some-,any-,no-,every-加上-one,-body,-thing所组成的不定代词。复合不定代词包括:someone(某人)somebody(某人)something(某事物)somewhere(某地)anyone(任何人)anybody(任何人)anything(任何事物)anywhere(任何地方)no one(没人)nobody(没人)nothing(没事物)nowhere(没有地方)everyone(每个人)everybody(每个人)everything(一切事物)everywhere(一切地方),共十六个。这些复合代词具有名词性质,在句中可用作主语、宾语或表语。



今天我们着重介绍复合代词和形容词的搭配哦:

你知道吗,在英国,婚礼的习俗为:

something new, something old, something borrowed, something blue

意思是:一点新的,一点旧的,一点借来的 ,一点蓝色的

  • 旧的这样东西,必须是一位婚姻生活幸福的闺蜜提供的,这样才能暗示着幸福生活也能相传。
  • 新的东西一般来说是礼服或者是鞋子。
  • 借来的东西应该是金制的,以此来保证未来能有好财运。
  • 蓝色的东西用来象征谦虚、忠诚和爱。 这是西方的习俗!


那么,现在你记住形容词和复合代词的搭配了吗?


复合代词在先,形容词在后

比如:

Have you found something interesting in this book?

你从书里找到什么有趣的东西里吗?

Let's go to somewhere romantic.

让我们去个浪漫的地方吧。

要记得哦,我们明天见~
