奥运会也是拉拉队展示风采的时候。相信看过拉拉队热情、奔放表演的人们都想了解一些他们幕后的事情吧?这部电影就为大家讲述了美国加州一所中学拉拉队的故事。

影片对白

Torrance: I got captain.

Justin: Yeah, and you sent a girl to the hospital on your first day. Aye, aye, Captain!

Torrance: You were listening on the phone? Mom!

Justion: It's true. She really should get her own private line, you know. She's growing up so fast.

Christine: Justin, go away.

Justin: At ease, Captain.

Christine: Well, this blistering academic schedule shouldn 't get in your way. You should be happy about that.

Torrance: Why can't you accept the fact that I'm not a genius?It just kills you that I'm not an honor student.

Christine: No. It kills me that you barely make time to study. If you studied half as much as you cheer, you'd be in great shape. Your priorities are—

Torrance: No! Those are your priorities! Mine are just fine.

Christine: Look, I'm just saying that college might be less of a shock... if you take an extra lab or language course or something. What do you think?

Torrance: Will Advanced Chem get you off my back?

Christine: Not completely, but it'll help.

Torrance: Done. You know, mothers have killed to get their daughters on squads.

Christine: That mother didn't kill anyone. She hired a hit man.

妙语佳句:

1. At ease

这个短语的意思是“安心;自在;不拘束”,在影片里也就是“放轻松”。这个词也可以作为口令,就是我们上体育课常说的“稍息”。请看例句:The dentist soon put the small girl at ease. 牙医很快使小女孩的情绪放松了。

2. get in your way

意思是“阻碍你;妨碍你”。“Get in one’s way”有“挡路”或“阻碍”的意思。比如:He is busy with his work now. Don't get in his way. 他很忙,别妨碍他。

3. It just kills you that I'm not an honor student.

“我不是模范生真是要了你的命了”。Honor student 是指“优秀学生”或“模范生”。“honor”在这里是“模范、荣誉”的意思。相似的用法有:honor president,荣誉主席。It kills… 是一种夸张、强调的说法,下文中的mothers have killed to get their daughters on squads 也是同样的用法,意思是“妈妈们拼了命也要让女儿进啦啦队”。
