选段台词:

Manny: You gotta make it stop. I can't take it anymore.

Diego: I've eaten things that complained less.

Sid: He won't stop squirming.

Diego: You’re holding it wrong.

Manny: Watch its head.

Diego: Just put it down.

Sid: Jeez, "pick him up, put him down..."

Diego: Its nose is dry.

Sid: That means something's wrong with it.

Diego: Someone should lick it. Just in case.

Sid: I'll do it.

Manny: He's wearing one of those baby thingies.

Sid: So?

Manny: So if he poops, where does it go?

Sid: Humans are disgusting.

Manny: OK, you. Check for poop.

Sid: Why am I the poop-Checker?

Manny: Because returning him was your idea. You're small and insignificant, and I'll pummel you if you don't.

Sid: Why else?

Manny: Now, Sid.

Sid: I mean, my goodness. Look out. Coming through.

Manny: Watch out.

Diego: Stop waving that thing around.

Sid: I'm gonna slip. It's clean. Got ya!

Manny: Will you cut it out?

Diego: Do that again. He likes it.

Manny: It's making me feel better too.

Sid: Here, you hold it.

Diego: Turn him towards me. Where is the baby? There he is. Where is the baby? There he is.

Manny: Stop it. You're scaring him.

Sid: I bet he's hungry.

Manny: How about some milk?

Sid: I'd love some.

Diego: Not you. The baby.

Sid: I aingt exactly lactating right now, pal.

Diego: You're a little low on the food chain to...

Manny: Enough, enough, enough.

重点语汇:

1. I can't take it anymore. 我受不了了。

在这里的take用法很好,其实还可以换成stand。

2. Just in case. 只是以防万一。

3. Check for poop. 检查大便。这里的poop还可以写作poo,这个词是儿童用语,没有什么恶意,不要觉得不文明什么的~~

看过电影《他没那么喜欢你》的筒子可能记得影片刚开始的那句:

A girl will never forget the first boy she ever likes.

Why did you do that?

Because you smell like dog poo.

后面还提到了poop-Checker,可以一起了解一下。

4. Got ya! 骗到乃了。

喜欢恶作剧的童鞋应该会很喜欢这句话。哈哈,每次做完恶作剧就可以一边说这么一句,一边偷偷笑~~~~噗。。。

5. Will you cut it out? 别闹了行不?

cut it out: 停止,住嘴。再如:

The two students kept talking and the teacher finally told them to cut it out.

那两个学生老在说话,最后老师叫他们不要再说了。

6. I bet he's hungry. 我敢说他一定是饿了。

又出现了I bet,哈哈,bet是很常用的一个词。

电影《当幸福来敲门》中有这么一句:But I bet you what,I know how to find the answer, and I will find the answer. 看过的对这句话也应该很熟悉的吧~~chris说的哦~~面试的时候呐!But I bet you what:但我可以向你保证。(用以确定的表示即将要说的是真的)

7. food chain:食物链。
