ACT 2-1  “我跟你父亲结婚时戴的就是它。”

【故事梗概】

Marilyn和Ellen正在帮助Susan穿戴打扮。Susan穿着一件长的结婚礼服。Ellen把自己结婚时戴过的蓝色腕带送给了Susan,作为她的“蓝色的东西”。

Marilyn: And now for…something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue.

Susan: OK. Let's see. Something borrowed. That's this dress. Borrowed from Marilyn.

Ellen: Something blue. My wristband. I wore it when I married your father. [She puts it on Susan's left wrist.]

Susan: Oh, Mother. I forgot you still had it. It's just so lovely.

Ellen: I bought it in an antique shop when I was about eighteen years old. I saved it for my wedding day.

Susan: And you saved it for me, didn't you, Mother?

Ellen: Yes, honey. I did.

Marilyn: Are we ever going to finish?

[They all laugh and cry. ]

Ellen: All right. OK. Something borrowed.

Marilyn: The wedding dress. And something blue.

Susan: The wristband.


【语言点精讲】

1. And now for…something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue.

在美国,女子出嫁时,娘家要给她穿、戴上“something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue”(旧的东西、新的东西、借来的东西和蓝色的东西”)。这是一种传统习俗,意思是婚后会交好运。这是一直沿袭下来的老传统了。

2. Something blue. My wristband. I wore it when I married your father. 

蓝色的东西,那就是我的腕带,我跟你父亲结婚时戴的就是它。

ACT 2-2  “我是留着它今天戴的。”

【故事梗概】

Susan决定用Grandma送给自己的珍珠项链作为自己的新娘结婚时身上穿戴的 “旧的东西”。

Susan: Something old?

Ellen: Something old. Right. What's old?

Susan: Of course! Something old. I had planned to wear them. [She gets something from the dresser.]

Ellen: Grandma's pearls! Oh, Grandpa will be so pleased that you're wearing them. I'm sure he misses Grandma on a day like this.

Susan: Help me with them, Marilyn. I've never worn them before. I've been saving them for today.

Ellen: Saving them for today? Oh, you're a real Stewart!

Marilyn: Oh, there you go. Lovely!

Ellen: Lovely!

Susan: Lovely!

Marilyn: Something borrowed, something blue. Something old… and now for something new.

Susan: The veil. Oh, it's so beautiful, Marilyn!

Ellen: You really are a fabulous designer, Marilyn.

Marilyn: [She puts the veil on Susan's head and hums the“Wedding March.”] Doesn't it look just right on Susan?

【语言点精讲】

3. I've never worn them before. I've been saving them for today.

我以前从来没有戴过它,我是留着它今天戴的。

I've been saving them for today. : 这是一个现在完成进行时式。表示一直都在留着,等今天再用,有较强的感情色彩。

ACT 2-3  “你从来没有现在这么好看。”

【故事梗概】

Susan也得了婚礼日心慌症,不殊于Harry。Ellen和Marilyn似乎在借Susan出阁之喜缅怀旧梦,体贴温柔,无所不用其极。

Marilyn: And when you both say,“I do. ”, Harry will lift this veil over your head and kiss the bride.

Ellen: Oh, I'm so excited!

Susan: When you said, “I do.”Marilyn, it suddenly became real.

Marilyn: That's all right, Susan. You've got the wedding-day jitters! In less than two hours, you will be Mrs. Harry Bennett.

Ellen: Oh, that reminds me. If we don't get dressed, we won't be there to see Susan become Mrs. Harry Bennett.

Susan: Before you leave -- do I look all right?

Ellen: You never looked better.

Susan: Mom.

Marilyn: She's right. [She hugs Susan. Suddenly, Marilyn's baby starts to cry in another room. ] And that's dear little Max. Got to go and feed him.

Susan: What am I supposed to do?

Marilyn: [She and Ellen are about to leave.] Take off the veil, kick off your shoes, and sit down.

Ellen: we'll come upstairs and get you in a little while.

Marilyn: Richard's going to take some wedding pictures before the ceremony. So just relax.

Susan: Are you kidding? Relax?

[Ellen and Marilyn leave.]

Susan: [She hums the “Wedding March.”] Susan Stewart…you are about to become Susan Bennett-Mrs. Harry Bennett.


【语言点精讲】

1. When you said, “I do.” Marilyn, it suddenly became real.

你刚才一说出了“我愿意”的时候,Marilyn,我忽然明白这事是真的了。

when you said: 注意这里的时态,一般过去时,指刚才Marilyn所说的“And when you both say, “I do. ”, Harry will lift this veil over your head and kiss the bride. ” Susan这时神经高度紧张,故Marilyn所描述的情况突然使她醒悟,她再过一会儿就要真地成为Harry的妻子了。

2. You've got the wedding-day jitters! In less than two hours, you will be Mrs. Harry Bennett. 

你是得了婚礼日的心慌症!再有不到两小时,你将成为Harry Bennett夫人了。

许多美国妇女在婚后改用丈夫的姓。Susan的娘家姓为Stewart,她婚后的姓应为Bennett。一些美国妇女还愿意保留娘家姓,一些妇女用两家的姓。因此在Susan跟 Harry Bennett结婚后,她有以下几个姓名的选择:

Susan Stewart(不改变),

Susan Bennett(换成丈夫的姓),

Susan Stewart Bennett(娘家姓+夫家姓),

Mrs. Harry Bennett(在正式的场合用)。

3. Oh, that reminds me.

That reminds me. : 这给我提了个醒(使我想起来了)。句型是 remind sb. of sth., 如请别人在将来某时提醒自己去做一件事,句型为 Please remind me to do sth.或Please remind me about sth.

4. You never looked better.

你从来没有现在这么好看。这是常用的给别人打气的话,也可说: “You're looking better/younger/smarter/more handsome than ever.”

5. Got to go and feed him. 

我得去给他喂奶了。

Got to go. : 我得走。在这里相当于“I've got to go. ”这是个非正式但常用的句子。表示“我必须走了”或“我不得不走”。

6. Are you kidding? Relax? 

你是在说笑话吧?我怎能放松得了?这里的意思是How can I relax?

7. Susan Stewart…you are about to become Susan Bennett-Mrs. Harry Bennett.

Susan Stewart啊……你很快就要成为Susan Bennett——Harry Bennett夫人了。

are about to: 很快,即将,就要。
