ANCHORMAN:(over-television) Hurricane Carmen came through here yesterday destroying nearly everything in its path.

  ▲Selected Scene 4（时长2:18）

角色   ①Forrest Gump     ②Dan Taylor =LT. DAN   ③Bubba  ④Sergeant Sims 

(Forrest and Bubba arrived at their new platoon in Vietnam.)

LT. DAN: You must be my F.N.G.'s.

BUBBA: Mornin', sir!

LT. DAN: Ho! Get your hands down. Do not salute me. There are goddamned snipers all around this area who would love to grease an officer. I'm Lieutenant Dan Taylor. Welcome to Fourth Platoon.

LT. DAN: What's wrong with your lips?

BUBBA: I was born with big gums, sir.

LT. DAN: Yeah,well, you better tuck that in. Gonna get that caught on a trip  wire. Where you boys from in the world?

BUBBA &FORREST: Alabama,sir!

LT. DAN: You twins?

FORREST: No, we are not relations, sir.

LT. DAN: Look, it's pretty basic here.

(Lt. Dan starts to walk. Bubba and Forrest grab their gear and follow him.)

LT. DAN:  You stick with me, you learn from the guys who been in country a while, you'll be right. There is one item of G.I. gear that can be the difference between a live grunt and a dead grunt. Socks “Cushion sole, O.D. green.” Try and keep your feet dry when we're out humpin'. I want you boys to remember to change your socks wherever we stop. The Mekong will eat a grunt's feet right off his legs.

LT. DAN: Sergeant Sims! Goddamnit, where is that sling-rope I told you to order.

SGT. SIMS: I put in requisitions at Battalion.

LT. DAN: Yeah,yeah, yeah, well you call those sonabitches again, call them again and again and again. I don't care how much it takes ...

FORREST:   (voice-over)Lt. Dan sure knew his stuff. I felt real lucky he was my  lieutenant. He was from a long, great military tradition. Somebody in his family had fought and died in every single American war.

LT. DAN: Goddamnit, kick some ass!

SGT. SIMS: I'm on it, Lieutenant.

LT. DAN: Get on it!

(Lt. Dan steps back up to Bubba and Forrest.)

FORREST:   (voice-over) I guess you could say he had a lot to live up to.

LT. DAN: So,you boys are from Arkansas, huh? Well, I've been through there. Little  Rock's a fine town. Now, go shake down your gear, see the platoon sergeant, draw what you need for the field.

(Lt. Dan steps inside the latrine, still holding the roll of toilet paper.)

LT. DAN:   If you boys are hungry, we got steaks burnin' right here. Two standing orders in this platoon. One, take good care of your feet. Two, try not to do anything stupid, like gettin' yourself killed.

(Forrest steps into Jenny's bedroom. He carries a tray with breakfast on it.)

JENNY: Hey … Hey, Forrest, were you scared in Vietnam?

FORREST: Yes. Well, I, I don't know. Sometimes it would stop raining long enough for the stars to come out. And then it was nice. It was like just before the sun goes to bed down on the bayou. There was over a million sparkles on the water. Like that mountain lake. It was so clear, Jenny. It looks like there were two skies, one on top of the other. And then in the desert, when the sun comes up, I couldn't tell where heavens stopped and the earth began. It was so beautiful. 

(Forrest looks at Jenny. Jenny looks out the window.)

JENNY:I wish I could have been there with you. 

FORREST: You were. 

JENNY: I love you.  

FORREST:  (voice-over) You died on a Saturday morning. And I had you placed here under our tree. And I had that house of your father's bulldozed to the ground. Momma always said dyin' was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn't. Little Forrest, he's doing just fine.  

Directions: Translate the following Chinese into English.

伴随着一片贯穿始终的漂浮在空中的羽毛，电影给我们讲述了一个有点迟顿的，但执着忠诚的男孩,福雷斯•甘普的故事。漂浮的羽毛是给我留下印象最深刻的场景，因为它总是随着风漫无目的的飞舞，没有方向,就像我们的人生。对于我们的大部分人生，就像阿甘一样，我们是找不到做某些事情的理由的。因为缺乏理由我们很容易就放弃了，所以，与阿甘相比我们不够执着。事实上，人生就像漂浮的羽毛，我们有时不得不随波逐流，没有方向。阿甘通过他自己的经历告诉我们要自己把控人生的方向。他已经证明，唯一需要做的是你要尽力。你越是努力，你所达到的成就就越高，你获得的就越多。我相信阿甘的成功并不是一个例外。
