影片對白

Michael: You were pretty shocked when I told you. Huh?

Julianne: Shocked? No. A little.

Michael: Okay.

Julianne：A lot, I fell off the bed.

Michael: Well. That explains the thump.

Julianne: Mmn?

Michael: You like her, don't you?

Julianne: Yeah, I do.

Michael: That's enthusiastic.

Julianne: Well, I mean. No, she's... she is great.

Michael: "No, she is great."

Juliann: I mean, seriously, can't sing a note. But to make that kinda sacrifice.

Michael: What? Leaving school?

Julianne: All of it. Put her career on hold. All. To follow you around in this dumb job, where you travel 52 weeks a year to places like College Station, Texas.

Michael: Dumb job?

Julianne: Well, it's not a grown up job. Michael.

Michael: My job never bothered you before.

Julianne: It doesn't bother me now, but I am not Kimmy. Her father owns the Sox and cable sports.

Michael: Yeah.

Julianne: I'm just surprised it doesn't come up, that's all.

Michael: What? "It"? What?

Julianne: Corner office with a view. You in a nice blue suit, permanent Chicago address. Somewhat close to mom and dad.

Michael: No, never. She would never even think of that. You don't know her.

妙詞佳句，活學活用

1． Thump

還記得在第一個片段當中，當Jules聽到了Michael的婚訊時，一不小心坐到了地上。當時發出了哐當一聲，而這個聲音就可以稱為thump。

2． Can't sing a note

這句話可是個金牌句型，尤其是對于那些想 k 歌，又羞于自己容易 can't sing a note（唱歌走調）的同志們。

3． Put her career on hold

從上下文來看，這個短語可以理解為give up（放棄）的意思，但是要這么理解的話，會有些歪曲，實際上put sth on hold 的意思是“使……被拖延、被耽擱”的意思。而在這里put her career on hold 的意思就是：推遲她事業的發展。

4. Conner office with a view

這個短語沒有什么實在意義，指的就是一個很寬敞的辦公室，而且是可以欣賞到外面風景的辦公室。通常情況下，當我們談論他人的工作的時候：So how about his job? Well, pretty good. He's got a corner office with a view. 意思就是他的工作很好。
