學(xué)習(xí)提示:本篇所選的六個段落都是兩兩對話,語速適中、發(fā)音清晰,適合兩個人進行模仿練習(xí)。模仿時要注意人物的語音語調(diào),把握住他們說話時的情感。比如在模仿第一個選段的時候,要在模仿時體會媽媽望女成鳳的期待之情以及小女孩的錯愕感。
相信很多人都讀過小王子的故事,也常常會感動于小王子的天真與單純,小王子的各種經(jīng)歷在每個人的心中都有著不同的解讀。去年10月,法國3D動畫奇幻電影《小王子》在我國上映,小王子的故事再一次溫暖了我們的心。然而,這部電影不僅僅是講述小王子的故事本身,而是將小王子的故事通過一個小女孩的眼睛呈現(xiàn)出來。一個年僅9歲的小女孩,在媽媽嚴(yán)格的教育下,儼然成了個小大人。但在認(rèn)識了飛行員之后,小女孩的想法開始逐漸改變,后來更是踏上了尋找小王子的冒險之旅。
動畫里講述小王子故事時的畫面采用了定格拍攝手繪紙模的方式,呈現(xiàn)出了極富意境的唯美藝術(shù)效果,十分暖心唯美。里面運用大量的暖光和陰影,在視覺上給人以溫暖撫慰的強烈觀感,配以空靈柔美的背景音樂,更是令人心馳神往、為之動容。美妙的配樂和畫面在一定程度上延續(xù)了原著神秘傷感的法式情懷??赐赀@部圍繞成長和找回童真展開的影片,無論你是否讀過原著,都一定會有所感觸。
Mother: Life plan. We’re not leaving anything to chance. Everything’s here. All into top to bottom, left to right. Let’s take a closer look. The minute of the hour, the hour of the day, the day of the week, the week of the month, the month of the year, the year of your life! Everything! Got it?
Little Girl: Oh…
Mother: It’s even got a1)chart for all your birthday gifts. Like your ninth birthday, coming up.2)Microscope. Perfect for the Werth Academy biology3)curriculum. It’s already4)wrapped.
Little Girl: Wow!
Mother: Yes, wow! But for now, all your attention should be focused here, the first day of your new school. We’ve got 53 days of prac time注, which doesn’t sound like much,until you break it into hours, 1272, or minutes, 76320. Only then do you realize how much can be5)accomplished. You will use those minutes, hours and days according to this. Because let’s face it, you’re gonna be all alone out there. All alone. So...We can’t afford any more mistakes,like the interview.
Little Girl: Right.
Mother: You’re going to make a wonderful grown-up.
Little Girl: Thank you, Mom.

直到那時我才意識到我錯了。
2) Only by working hard can you succeed.
只有努力工作你才能成功。
Little Prince: If you please draw me a sheep? If you please draw me a sheep. Draw me a sheep.
Aviator: When a mystery is too over powering,one dare not6)disobey. Draw? I don’t know how to draw.
Little Prince: That doesn’t matter.
Aviator: The first sheep I drew was too sickly. And the second one, not to his liking, either.
Little Prince: Don’t you see that’s not a sheep?This is a7)ram, it has8)horns.
Aviator: And this one was...
Little Prince: Too old! I want a sheep that will live for a long time.
Aviator: So, I drew this. The sheep you ask for is inside.
Little Prince: That is exactly the way I wanted it! Do you think the sheep will eat a great deal of grass?Because where I live, everything is very small.
Aviator: Well, I’m sure there will be enough grass for him. He’s a very small sheep.
Little Prince: Not so small that. Look! He’s gone to sleep.
Dare在這里做情態(tài)動詞,“dare(not)do sth.”表示“敢于/不敢……”。如:
I dare go to swim.
我敢游泳了。
A great deal of表示“大量的……”,后面只能跟不可數(shù)名詞。如:
She spends a great deal of money on clothes every year.
她每年花很多錢買衣服。
Little Girl: I...I just wanted to give your drawing back.
Aviator: Oh…didn’t like it?
Little Girl: No, no, I did.
Aviator: Not…not very good.
Little Girl: I think it’s nice. I read the story too,9)attentively. And I found it quite10)odd.
Aviator: Odd?
Little Girl: I mean11)curious...or interesting. I guess I have some12)issues with some of the facts.
Aviator: Oh, you have questions?
Little Girl: I don’t mean to be rude. Can I?
Aviator: What? Be rude? Sure, go ahead. What you got?
Little Girl: Well, first of all, what was the kid doing there in the desert? That’s very strange. No one can last very long in a desert without food and water. Where are his parents? Does he even go to school?Does he really live up there? Because I took13)basic14)astronomy and there was no mention of life or children on any other planets. Unless it’s true that he came from a star. But that seems unprobable.
Aviator: Not a star, an15)asteroid. Asteroid B-612.
Little Girl: Oh…We didn’t cover asteroids.
Aviator: But the fact that he wanted a sheep, that pretty much prove that he exists. Don’t you think?Hold on, I just gotta find you another drawing.
Little Girl: Wow…This is a pretty serious16)fire hazard.
Aviator: Oh, I never looked at it that way.
Little Girl: Where did you get all this stuff?
Aviator: Oh, well, as you live, little some things just kind of stick to you. There’s a name for it...the…
Little Girl: Collecting?
Aviator:17)Hoarding! That’s it, hoarding.
Mother: According to this, you’re still in bed,asleep, yesterday. Your “friend” doesn’t even have a driver’s18)licence! Oh no, they took it away after the fourth time he drove away with the19)gas pump20)attached. You could have been killed!
Little Girl: Mom, I can explain...
Mother: No, no. You mean you can lie.
Little Girl: But…
Mother: You’ve been lying to me. You lie to the police officer. Oh yes, right, before I forget, happy birthday. You even managed to lie to your life plan!
Star在天文學(xué)中表示“恒星”。恒星是由非固態(tài)、液態(tài)、氣態(tài)的第四態(tài)等離子體組成的,是能自己發(fā)光的球狀或類球狀天體。由于恒星離我們太遠,不借助于特殊工具和方法很難發(fā)覺它們在天上的位置變化,因此古代人認(rèn)為它們是固定不動的星體。我們所處的太陽系的主星太陽就是一顆恒星。
Asteroid在天文學(xué)中表示“小行星”。小行星是太陽系內(nèi)類似行星環(huán)繞太陽運動的、但體積和質(zhì)量都比行星小得多的天體。
Stick to表示“堅持,緊跟,忠于,粘住”。根據(jù)意思的不同,可用于“stick to sb.”或者“stick to sth.”。

Mother: You’re wrong. I care about it as much as I care about you. It…it is you. This is your life and I’m the only one taking any responsibility for it!
Little Girl: That’s your22)version of my life,not mine! If you were ever around, you’d see that!
Mother: You know full well why I have to work so hard.
Little Girl: You’re just like him now. Too busy, always working. How long until you23)completely24)disappear?
在這一選段里,小女孩終于告訴媽媽自己內(nèi)心的真實想法,告訴媽媽自己并不想要過現(xiàn)在這樣枯燥、功利的生活。當(dāng)然,媽媽在一定程度上也被震撼到了。這段對話人物的語音語調(diào)抑揚頓挫,感情色彩鮮明,同時也是故事發(fā)展的一個轉(zhuǎn)折點,童鞋們模仿時要注意揣摩哦。
manage to 設(shè)法做到,達成
take responsibility for 對……負責(zé)
Little Girl: Here he is! Little Prince! Little Prince!Mr. Prince: Oh…what?

be supposed to中的“to”是動詞不定式符號,不是介詞,其后要跟動詞原形,意為“應(yīng)該……”“被期望……”,它可以用來表示“勸告、建議、義務(wù)、責(zé)任”等,相當(dāng)于情態(tài)動詞should。如:
1) Teachers are supposed to treat all the students alike.
老師應(yīng)該對所有的學(xué)生一視同仁。
2) You are not supposed to smoke on the bus.
你不應(yīng)該在公共汽車上吸煙。
lt is…that…是強調(diào)句式。強調(diào)句型的構(gòu)成是:It is/was+被強調(diào)部分+that/who+句子的其他成分,被強調(diào)的部分放在It is/was之后,其他部分置于that之后。被強調(diào)部分可以是主語、賓語、表語或狀語。強調(diào)的主語如果是人,可以由who來代替that。如:
原句:Tom found my bag in the classroom yesterday.
強調(diào)主語:It was Tom who/that found my bag in the classroom yesterday.
強調(diào)賓語:It was my bag that Tom found in the classroom yesterday.
強調(diào)地點狀語:It was in the classroom that Tom found my bag yesterday.

參考譯文
媽媽:人生大計。我們要把命運完全掌握在自己手里。你要做的都在這兒。順序是從上到下、從左到右?,F(xiàn)在我們來仔細看一看。你的人生從每一分鐘到每一小時,到每一天、每一個星期、每一個月、每一年!全都在這兒!懂了嗎?
小女孩:噢……
媽媽:連你每年的生日禮物我都做了一張表格。比如你即將到來的九歲生日的禮物就是顯微鏡。你去上沃斯學(xué)院的生物課時正好能用上。我已經(jīng)包裝好了。
小女孩:哇!
媽媽:沒錯,厲害吧!但是現(xiàn)在,你要集中精力對付這個,去新學(xué)校報到的第一天。我們有53天時間做準(zhǔn)備,聽起來不算寬裕。但是換算成小時就有1272個小時了,也就是76320分鐘。到那時你才會發(fā)現(xiàn),原來你能完成那么多事情。你要根據(jù)這張表來安排你的每一分鐘、每一小時和每一天。跟你直說吧,進入社會你就只能靠自己,要獨自奮戰(zhàn)了。所以……我們不能再有像面試時那樣的失誤了。
小女孩:好的。
媽媽:你會長成一名出色的大人。
小女孩:謝謝媽媽。
小王子:能否請您給我畫一只羊?請您幫我畫一只羊吧。幫我畫一只羊。
飛行員:當(dāng)一個人被一種神秘的力量震懾住時,絕對不敢不服從。畫畫?我不懂怎么畫畫。
小王子:不要緊。
飛行員:我畫的第一只羊,太瘦弱了。而第二只羊,也不合他的意。
小王子:難道你看不出你畫的不是一只綿羊?這是一只公羊,它還有犄角呢。
飛行員:而這只又……
小王子:太老了!我要一只能活很久的羊。
飛行員:于是,我畫了這個。你要的那只羊在這個箱子里。
小王子:這正和我想要的一模一樣!你覺得這只羊需不需要吃很多草呢?因為在我住的地方,所有的東西都很小。
飛行員:嗯,我相信那里已經(jīng)有足夠的草來喂它了。這是一只非常小的羊。
小王子:沒那么小??矗∷?。
小女孩:我……我只是來把畫還給你。
飛行員:噢……你不喜歡?
小女孩:不,不,我喜歡。
飛行員:是……是我畫得不夠好。
小女孩:你畫得很好。你的故事我也讀了,還讀得很入迷。然后,我覺得這故事很奇怪。
飛行員:很奇怪?
小女孩:我是說它很奇特……或者說是很有趣。對于里面的情節(jié)我想我有幾個問題要問。
飛行員:噢,你有問題要問?
小女孩:我無意冒犯。我可以問嗎?
飛行員:什么?怎么會是冒犯呢?說吧,你有什么疑問?
小女孩:嗯,首先,這個小孩在沙漠里做什么?這點非常奇怪。沒有水和食物,人不可能在沙漠里活很久。他的父母在哪?他不用上學(xué)嗎?他真的住在天上嗎?我上過基礎(chǔ)天文課,老師沒有說過其他星球上有生命或者小孩。除非他是從恒星上來的,但那好像不太可能。
飛行員:不是恒星,是小行星。B-612小行星。
小女孩:好吧……我們還沒學(xué)過小行星。
飛行員:但既然他想要一只羊,那就足以證明他是存在的。你覺得呢?等一下,我得找另一幅畫給你看。
小女孩:哇……這兒真是個巨大的火災(zāi)隱患。
飛行員:噢,我可從沒這么想過。
小女孩:這些東西都是從哪里來的?
飛行員:噢,嗯,活著的時候,有些小東西總會緊緊跟著你。所以有個專門的名詞叫……這個……
小女孩:收集?
飛行員:收藏!對,就是收藏。
媽媽:你的日程表還停留在昨天,上面顯示你還在床上睡覺!你的那位“朋友”甚至連駕照都沒有!哦,不對,是因為他第四次加完油忘拔輸油管就把車開走,所以駕照被沒收了。你今天差點就死了!
小女孩:媽媽,我可以解釋……
媽媽:不,不。你的意思是你可以騙我。
小女孩:但是……
媽媽:你一直在對我撒謊,你還對警察撒謊。哦,對了,我差點忘了,生日快樂。你甚至想要對你的人生大計撒謊!
小女孩:那個?那只是個擺滿磁鐵的盒子!我覺得在你眼里它比我更重要。
媽媽:你錯了。你和你的人生大計對我來說都很重要。這……這就是你。這是你的人生,卻只有我一個人把你的人生當(dāng)回事!
小女孩:那是你理想中的我的人生,不是我的!如果你多花點時間陪我,你就會明白!
媽媽:你很清楚我為什么必須拼命工作。
小女孩:現(xiàn)在你變得和他一樣了。總是太忙,永遠都在埋頭工作。離你徹底不見蹤影還有多久?
小女孩:他在這兒!小王子!小王子!
王子先生:噢……什么?
小女孩:噢,真對不起!
王子先生:我沒事。噢……噢,我的腿。
小女孩:你沒事吧?
王子先生:沒事,沒事。不,我只是……只是稍稍休息一下,僅此而已。
小女孩:噢,我剛才把你當(dāng)成別人了。
王子先生:是嗎?好,那太好了!好極了。請別舉報我。休息時間結(jié)束。瞧,我在工作。噢,工作,工作,工作……用不著舉報我。
小女孩:不是他。這下該怎么辦?王子先生?難道?不好意思?
王子先生:??!噢,真倒霉!
小女孩:我想你掉了這個。
王子先生:我的工作證!噢,大禍臨頭了。
小女孩:真的是他。
王子先生:我能……?
小女孩:你怎么變成這樣了?
王子先生:把它給我,拜托。
小女孩:飛行員不會喜歡這樣的。
王子先生:給……給……給我!
小女孩:你不應(yīng)該是這個樣子的!
王子先生:快點,把它給我!謝謝。
小女孩:我能看見她。
小王子:她不是一朵普通的玫瑰。她是整個宇宙中唯一的一朵玫瑰。我記得她。我記得每一個細節(jié)。她沒有消失。
小女孩:她還在這里。
小王子:只有用心去看才能看得真切。
小女孩:他會永遠和我在一起?,F(xiàn)在我懂了。
小王子:請告訴飛行員我記得他!
小女孩:我會的!
小王子:別忘了!
小女孩:我不會的!我會全都記住的!我保證!
