I've

been

working

here

for

over

a

year

and,

I

haven't

been

involved

at

all

in

anyimportant

job.

Every

day

I

do

these

simple

tasks

that

any

idiot

could

do.我在這里工作1年多了，而且我根本沒(méi)有參與任何重要的工作。每天我會(huì)做這些任何傻子都會(huì)做的簡(jiǎn)單工作。ELIZABETH:

A

good

businessman

is

like

a

good

fencer

Stuart,

both

require

skill

and

patience.一個(gè)好的商人就像一個(gè)好的擊劍者Stuart，同時(shí)具有技能和耐心。STUART:

What

is

this

Linderman's

deal?

Why

am

I

not

allowed

to

attend

meetings?

Why

areyou

cutting

me

out?Linderman到底想要怎么樣？為什么不讓我參加會(huì)議？你為什么排除我？ELIZABETH:

Forget

about

the

deal.

Grab

your

sword.別去糾結(jié)他怎么想的。拿起你的劍。STUART:I

can't

fence.

我不會(huì)擊劍。ELIZABETH:

I'll

teach

you.

我會(huì)教你的。2ELIZABETH:

Hold

the

sword.

No! Position

the

arm

like

this. Bend

the

knees.

Legsshoulder-width

apart.拿住劍。不要！像這樣放你的手臂。彎曲膝蓋。腿分開(kāi)，與肩同寬。ELIZABETH:

Don't

lean

forward. Center,

adjust

to

your

opponent. Don't

look

at

thesword. Keep

your

eye

on

the

target.不要向前傾。到中心去適應(yīng)你的對(duì)手。不要看著劍。眼睛鎖定在目標(biāo)上。3STUART:

Is

that

allowed?可以嗎？ELIZABETH:

No. No

body

contact.不可以。沒(méi)有人可以接觸。STUART:

I

think

you

enjoy

breaking

the

rules.我覺(jué)得你喜歡不守規(guī)則。ELIZABETH:

You

listen

carefully. You're

the

one

who

isn't

following

the

rules.Neverstrike

frombehind.你仔細(xì)聽(tīng)好。你是唯一一個(gè)不按照規(guī)則的人。永遠(yuǎn)不要從背后襲擊。4STUART:'Keep

your

knees

bent

like

this'''Keep

your

feet

shoulder

length

apart''Are

youkidding

me?I

mean

it's

almost

laughable.She

also

said,

my

boss,

Elizabeth,'Put

onamask''‘像這樣彎曲你的膝蓋?！p腳分開(kāi)，與肩同寬?！阍诤臀议_(kāi)玩笑嗎？我的意思是這有點(diǎn)可笑。她也說(shuō)，我的老板Elizabeth，‘戴上面具?！疭TUART:

Well

clearly

she

likes

to

wear

a

mask. I

think

she

likes

to

play

sports

howshe

conducts

business. She

likes

to

break

the

rules,

and

that's

not

how

I

want

toconduct

myself,

not

how

I

am

going

to

conduct

myself,

especially

with

business.'Don't

look

at

the

sword'' 'Keep

your

eye

on

the

target''很明顯她喜歡戴面具。我覺(jué)得她喜歡用經(jīng)營(yíng)生意的方式來(lái)做運(yùn)動(dòng)。她喜歡破壞規(guī)則，那不是我如

何想表現(xiàn)自己，也不是我打算如何表現(xiàn)自己，特別是做生意時(shí)?！灰粗鴦?。’盯住目標(biāo)不放。STUART:

Yeah,

well,

lesson

learned. I'm

going

to

keep

my

eye

on

Elizabeth. And

shesaid

something

really

weird:

'Keep

your

nose

out

of

places

where

it

doesn't

belong''What

does

that

mean? I

have

no

idea.是的，好，課上完了。我打算盯著Elizabeth看。而且她說(shuō)了些很奇怪的話(huà)：‘不要把你的鼻子放在本不屬于它的地方。’那是什么意思？我不知道。5?STUART:

Linderman

Building. Sometimes

I

wonder

what

my

future's

going

to

be

like.You

know

if

I

work

really

hard

then

one

day

I'll

have

my

own

business

or

at

leastthat's

my

dream. Some

people

say

that

the

decisions

we

make

today

can

have

an

effecton

the

rest

of

our

lives,

though

that

being

said,

I

broke

into

the

office

where

I

workat. It

could

destroy

my

career.林德曼大廈。有時(shí)候我會(huì)想知道我的未來(lái)是什么樣子的。

你知道嗎？如果我真的努力工作，那么有一天我會(huì)擁有自己的事業(yè)或者至少那是我的夢(mèng)想。有的人說(shuō)我們今天做的決定會(huì)影響我們今后的生活，盡管這么說(shuō)，我還是強(qiáng)行闖入了我工作的辦公室。這會(huì)毀了我的事業(yè)的。STUART:

I

mean,

if

they

find

out,

it

will

destroy

my

career. It's

just

I

had

to

lookinto

the

Linderman

file. You

know,

the

Linderman

Building

is

this

beautiful

buildinglocated

in

downtown

Los

Angeles,

and

our

company

has

invested

in

it. They'd

like

topurchase

it. So

far

so

good.我的意思是，如果他們發(fā)現(xiàn)，我的事業(yè)就毀了。我必須查看

Linderman的檔案。你知道的，林德曼大廈是這幢坐落在洛杉磯商業(yè)區(qū)的漂亮建筑，我們公司也投資了。他們想買(mǎi)下它。到現(xiàn)在為止,一直都還不錯(cuò)。5STUART:For

some

reason

Elizabeth

wants

to

destroy

the

building,

the

LindermanBuilding,

the

most

beautiful

and

historic

building

in

all

of

downtown

Los

Angeles.

Imean

there

won't

be

another

one

like

it. I

mean

so

what

will

happen

if

the

buildingdoesn't

come

down? Well

there'll

be

a

good

opportunity

for

Los

Angeles

to

be

the

new,New

York

City

of

the

twenty

first

century,

the

way

I

see

it.在某些原因上，Elizabeth想破壞洛杉磯?mèng)[市區(qū)最漂亮和具有歷史意義的建筑林德曼大廈。我的意思是沒(méi)有其他人會(huì)喜歡它了。我的意思是如果大廈不被拆除，那又會(huì)發(fā)生什么呢？在我看來(lái)，洛杉磯有機(jī)會(huì)成為21世紀(jì)的新紐約城市。6EMMA:I've

been

thinking

about

my

future.Where

I

want

to

go,

who

I

want

to

be,

whatI

want

todo. I'm

twenty

four

years

old

and

I

don't

what

I

want. I

don't

know!

我在思考我的未來(lái)。我想去哪兒，我想成為誰(shuí)，我想做什么。我24歲了，但我不知道我想要什么。我不知道！NANCY:

my

job

my

law

school

to

changetheworld.哇哦。這么多可能性。Emma將要成功了。她有這么多的機(jī)會(huì)和這么多的精力。她真的應(yīng)該用那精力去改變世界。NANCY:

I

had

energy

when

I

was

younger. I

remember

having

opportunities. I

hope

shedoes

something

great. I'm

a

little

jealous. You

have

your

whole

future

in

front

ofyou.我年輕的時(shí)候很有精力。我記得有機(jī)會(huì)的。我希望她做一些偉大的事。我有點(diǎn)嫉妒。你的前途無(wú)限！EMMA:

I

it?她有碰巧提到過(guò)她打算怎么處理嗎？MR.LINDERMAN:

No,

she

won't

tell

me.沒(méi)有，她沒(méi)有告訴我。STUART:

Because

of

its

location,

I

think

it

would

make

for

an

excellent

restaurant

or,better

yet,

anartgallery.由于它的地理位置，我想這里適合開(kāi)一個(gè)很好的餐廳，或者更好的是，開(kāi)一個(gè)藝術(shù)畫(huà)廊。7MR.LINDERMAN:

Iagree. I

think

the

future

of

downtown

LA,

it

should

end

up

lookingalot

more

like

New

York

City.我同意。我想洛杉磯的未來(lái)最終會(huì)成為像紐約一樣面向更多。STUART:

I

predict

by

2020,,

downtown

Los

Angeles

will

be

one

of

the

best

cities

inthe

countryto

live

in.我預(yù)言，到2020年為止，洛杉磯?mèng)[市區(qū)會(huì)成為最好的居住城市之一。MR.LINDERMAN:

I

wouldn't

be

disappointed

to

see

that

happen. This

building

could

bequite

an

asset

to

your

company.我會(huì)很高興看到這個(gè)情況發(fā)生。這幢建筑對(duì)你們公司來(lái)說(shuō)是一筆資產(chǎn)。STUART:

Certainly. You

have

any

idea

of

how

much

that

will

cost?當(dāng)然。您認(rèn)為這個(gè)要花多少錢(qián)？MR.LINDERMAN:

I

think

something

I'll

discuss

with

Elizabeth.我想我要和

Elizabeth討論一些事情。STUART:

OK,

I

won't

take

up

any

more

of

your

time. I'll

have

Elizabeth

contactyou

as

soon

as

possible.好的，我不會(huì)占用你很多時(shí)間。我會(huì)讓Elizabeth盡快聯(lián)系你。MR.LINDERMAN:

to

hearing

from

her.我期待她的回復(fù)。STUART:

Thank

what

are

you

going

to

do? Let's

look

at

your

choices. If

you

get

a

jobnow,

you'll

make

money

soon. But

if

you

go

to

law

school

and e

a

lawyer,

you'll

makea

lot

of

money

later. And

if

you

join

the

Peace

Corps.那么你打算做什么呢？讓我們看看你的選擇。如果你現(xiàn)在得到一份工作，你會(huì)很快賺到錢(qián)。要是你去法學(xué)院后成為一名律師，你之后會(huì)賺很多錢(qián)的。如果你加入和平隊(duì)...EMMA: .I

won't

make

money. Ever....我賺不到錢(qián)。無(wú)論何時(shí)。BOB: Peace

thinking

about

the

Peace

Corps?和平隊(duì)？Emma？你在考慮和平隊(duì)嗎？NANCY: Yes,

Emma

is

going

to

apply.是的，Emma打算去申請(qǐng)。BOB: Emma.

Emma。EMMA: Dad,

I

just

want

to

do

something

good. You

gave

me

so

much!I'm

so

grateful,but

now

I

want

to

go

out

there. I

want

to

help

people. I

think

if

I

join

the

PeaceCorps,

I'll

really

help

people.爸爸，我只是想做些好的事情。你給了我這么多呢！我很感激，但是現(xiàn)在我想走出那兒。我想幫助別人。我想如果我加入了和平隊(duì)，我真的會(huì)幫助別人的。EMMA: I'll

give

something

back.我會(huì)歸還某些東西。8It's

a

very

noble

idea,

Em.這是個(gè)高尚的想法，嗯。NANCY:?BOB:

I

know

kids

grow

up. They

move

out

of

the

house,

they

get

jobs,

they

getmarried. But

she's

talking

about

the

Peace

Corps! She'll

be

so

far

away. But

shewillhelppeople.我知道孩子會(huì)長(zhǎng)大的。他們搬出了這個(gè)房間，接著找到了工作，然后結(jié)婚了。但是她在討論和平隊(duì)！她會(huì)去很遙遠(yuǎn)的地方。但是她會(huì)幫助別人的。BOB:

And

if

she

moves

abroad,

she'll

learn

another

language. She'll

get

to

see

alotof

things

and

meet

a

lot

of

new

people. But

it's

dangerous. She'll

be

far

away,

andI

won't

see

her

for

two

years. I'll

worry

so

much.而且如果她搬到國(guó)外，她會(huì)學(xué)習(xí)另一種語(yǔ)言。她會(huì)開(kāi)始看到許多東西和見(jiàn)到很多新的人。但是這很危險(xiǎn)。他就要離開(kāi)了，我要2年見(jiàn)不到她了。我很擔(dān)心。BOB:

Why

don't

you

just

stay

here? With

me? Withus.你為什么不呆在這里？和我一起？和我們一起。EMMA:

Well,

I

don't

says

that

she's

a

quicklearner.謝謝光臨。Kate！你不可能要每件東西。Kate以前從來(lái)沒(méi)有工作過(guò)，但是她肯定很熱情而且她了解時(shí)尚。她說(shuō)她的學(xué)習(xí)能力很強(qiáng)。NINA:

know,

what

Stuart

doesn't

understand

is

that

this

business

ismuch

harder

than

he

ever

thought

it

would

be. He

doesn't

need

he

needs

you

work

hard

and

that's

how

youlearn

so

fast. He's

not

going

to

have

going

togive

him

more

responsibility,

put

him

in

charge

of

more

contracts

and,

maybe,

evenapay

Linderman計(jì)劃。我打算讓他承擔(dān)更多的責(zé)任，讓他負(fù)責(zé)更多的對(duì)外聯(lián)系甚至加薪。STUART:

Professional

What
