双语学习:《阿凡达》中不靠谱的未来十大真相
作者:深圳教育在线 来源:www.szedu.net 更新日期:2010-2-7

  《阿凡达》创造的未来外星世界美轮美奂,然而其中有多少是靠谱的咧?来看看老外影迷的苛刻挑刺儿,有一些bug实在很是离谱的哦,而你对《阿凡达》里头的设定又认同多少,留言发表的你观点吧。

  1. 就算是在未来,纸钞还是很重要。

  男主人公的兄弟就是因为当街被抢劫现金而身亡。所以就算有变成外星人的高科技,2154年也别指望大家统统通过电子系统来交易哈。

  1. Even in the Future, It's All About Paper Money Despite all the hi-tech gizmos on display, from the cryosleep pods and exo-skeletal warrior suits to the amazing Avatar-transplant technology,mankind still hasn't evolved past folding paper money. Jake Sully'sbrother -- who has an enormous amount of R&D dollars invested inhis PhD-achieving ass -- dies because he's robbed for the cash in hiswallet. So it's the decision to not move to an all-electronic funds transfer system by 2154 -- hardly credible - that really determines Pandora's fate.

  2. 高科技也救不了你,该你坐轮椅还得坐轮椅。

  男主人公因战争光荣负伤下身瘫痪,然后他就只能坐轮椅上了,虽说他解释自己靠薄弱的抚恤金不能得以重新站起来,总归很牵强啦这个理由。

  2. With All that Technology2, You'll Still Need a Wheelchair Sully is paralyzed from the waist down after a war wound, and thus he gets around in an old-fashioned wheelchair. It's pretty crummy,really, that science has developed to the point where humanconsciousness can be transplanted into a genetically engineered9-foot-tall Na'vi but a spinal column can't be given an overhaulwhile-U-wait. Sully explains it costs too much for the lowly likes ofhimself. Well, that sure sucks, but surely they could come up with anifty set of mechanical legs for him, given the gnarly exo-suits ondisplay everywhere you look.

  3. 烟草生命力超级顽强。

  就算地球表面已经没有植被覆盖,烟草公司却依然强大。人家格蕾丝教授"白色的烟雾般,飘散在记忆的最深处,一阵又一阵的旋转,在空气中,一支又一支的……抽!"

  3. Cigarettes Will Survive Earth is now devoid of greenery but tobacco farming apparently still survives -- asevidenced by Sigourney Weaver's Grace Augustine lighting up everychance she gets. Even weirder is that, despite there being hundreds ofhighly stressed macho warriors stuck on Pandora for six years at atime, she seems to be the only smoker left. Where does she get them?And why does the industry serve one customer?

  4. 潘多拉的矿业大概永无发家之日。

  尽管有着大量珍稀资源,纳美人却没什么经济头脑来着,淳朴啊。

  4. Pandora's Mining Economy Might Not Stack Up Doing nasty things the Na'vi to get precious Unobtainium is morallyreprehensible, but it also might not really make the best businesssense. We're told the stuff (whose name is to sci-fi what the Mac Guffinis to mystery thrillers) goes for -- hold on to your piggy banks! --$20M a kilogram. Sounds impressive-- until you factor in 145 years of inflation. Right now, platinum goesfor about $46,000 a kilo. At 3 percent annual inflation for the next century and a half that becomes $3.5M. But given the state we're told Earth is in, a 3 percent inflation rate seems pretty optimistic. At 4percent, you're looking at $13.5M. If it hits 5 percent then the going rate for platinum would reach $54 M per kg. Now factor in the insanecost of traveling to a distant planet, waging a war and transporting Unobtainium back to Earth. Just saying the Corporation might be betteroff, y'know, growing weed.

  5. 22世纪澳洲口音大行天下。

  男主角的澳洲口音很是迷人,这点不错滴。

  5. Aussie-American Accents Are the Way of the 22nd Century

  Good call, James Cameron, by letting Sam Worthington keep theAustralian twang to his American accent. The actor's voice maintains apleasant consistency that wasn't found in "Terminator Salvation" andrecalls the tones of Mel Gibson. Maybe Cameron went a wee bit too farin that direction, though, in the "Braveheart" scene.

  6. 海军部队长官的官腔还是老样子。

  上校同志的好多台词口气都跟上世纪80年代的片子无二异,好穿越啊……

  6. Marine Cliches Survive, Too! "Getsome!" cries one Marine. Meanwhile, virtually everything thatvillainous Colonel Miles Quaritch says, from "Pandora will s--- you outwith zero warning" to "Nothing's over while I'm breathing," sounds,well, like it's taken from a 2009 action movie that's nodding back tothe genre's 1980s heyday, which its creator helped establish. As apoint of reference, here are a few military words and phrases popularin the mid-19th century. "Graveled" -- to be perplexed; "The pinch ofthe game" -- the defining moment; "Tight scratch" -- a difficult fight.I'm saying the tough guys of Avatar might do terse-talk we don't quiteunderstand. "Grub the Navs, chippers, I be blerkin the pnau-flerks outof 'em!"

  7. 要USB做啥?有头发就够了。

  在不久后的将来,你就能用你的头发上传数据,下载信息,逗逗蜻蜓,玩玩花草……

  7. Hair's The New USB And you thought braided ponytails were only for acid casualties,time-warp-stuck yuppies and drummers in reggae bands? Think again,kiddo. In the future, whenever you want to upload or download a fewfiles -- or sync with a flying dragon, or the planet in general --you'll reach for your hairbraid's fibre-optic thingies. Hair stylistswill price their weave work by the Tera-byte and connection speed.

  8. 如果你住在尼日利亚或者委内瑞拉那块地儿,赶快搬了吧

  在可怜的非洲国家人民啊,就因为他们地底下有珍贵物资就要遭遇强迁,没天理!

  8. If You Live In Nigeria or Venezuela: Move Sorry, Nigerians and Venezualans, but according to Cameron, you willsome time soonish be receiving a visit from the U.S. Marine Corps andits hi-tech arsenal -- all because you live on top of somethingprecious and have therefore become an enemy of the country-company. Hmm… Nigeria … Venezuela … what could it be, y'ail?

  9. 外星人傻不拉机的,还喜怒无常。

  质朴的纳美人与动植物土地森林无比亲近,但他们却技术落后,用弓箭完全抵御不了暴力嘛!

  9. Aliens Will Be Slow Learners and a Little Fickle TheNa'vi have plenty of spiritual connections to Pandora, live in sweetsymbiosis with the animals and plants, and are all-round athleticwarriors. But they aren't the brightest chameleons in the terrarium, asevidenced by their initial bow-and-arrow response to super-dooperhover-gunships. No offence, blue guys, but you've had -– oh –- decadesto learn that firing your pointy sticks doesn't work at that range.Thankfully, they can depend on the clans -- even if they never mentionthem in passing. Which makes me think our forest-dwelling heroes may befair-weather Na'vi.

  10. 风水轮流转,终究回到原点

  《阿凡达》在视觉感官上的旷古绝今不容置疑,但在剧情上,却依旧沿袭了很多过去老电影中的桥段。大概是卡梅隆大导想要表现出人类从来不肯学乖的主题吧?

  10. Future Verse, Same as the First I'm not the first and I won't be the last to say it. "Avatar" isvisually revolutionary, a technological step forward into thefilmmaking future. But it's also a liberal space-set cowboys &Indians story that echoes most obviously 1991's "Dances With Wolves:and before that Jimmy Stewart's 1950 western "Broken Arrow" and JohnWayne's 1953 3D effort "Hondo."Not that there's anything wrong withthat. Maybe it's Cameron's sly point: while the Na'vi learn slow,humans never learn.
