Bridget: Who cares about the odd professional hiccup? The fact is I've
been in a functional relationship with an adult male for six wonderful weeks,
four fabulous days and seven precious hours, or to put it another way, 71 ecstatic shags . He's given up being snooty, and I've given
up smoking. Well, he thinks I have anyway, which is practically the same
thing... Mark Darcy is perfect. Not a fuckwit, alcoholic, workaholic, pervert or
megalomaniac, but total sex god and human rights lawyer. He is a miracle,
really.
Mark: Bridget, will you stop? Stop staring at me while I'm asleep. Go and
find something to do.
Bridget: Sorry. So, as you can see, the incredible truth is the wilderness
years are over. Bridget Jones is a love pariah no more.
Workmate: Morning, Bridget. Late again.
Bridget: Yes. Sorry. I was in bed with my boyfriend. He's a human rights
lawyer, you know.
Workmate: Yes, we know.
Bridget: I cannot believe how fantastic shagging was last night. Maybe I'll
ring him. No, no... Obviously it's important to tell one's boyfriend how nice he
looks naked, but I have crucial, Pulitzer Prize winning journalism to do.
Mark: Hello?
Bridget: It's me. Just wondered how you are.
Mark: I'm fine, thanks. Everything all right with
you?
Bridget: Fine, though, er... I've just had a rather graphic shag flashback.
And you do have a genuinely gorgeous bottom.
Mark: Thank you. I'm actually with the Mexican ambassador, the head of
Amnesty international and the Undersecretary for Trade and lndustry. And
you're on speakerphone.
Bridget: Oh. Right, well... I'm quite busy with important stuff too...
妙词佳句，活学活用
1．put it another
way
这里着重要讲的是put这个词。通常情况下put是放置的意思，除此之外，put还有“说，表达”的含义。put it another
way就是“换个说法”的意思，相当于我们学过的in other words。
2．shags
英国俚语，意思是have sex with someone。美国人很少这样讲。
3．Everything all right with you?
这句话可称之为金牌句型，意思是“一切顺利吧，一切还好吧”！如果一个朋友看起来有些神秘兮兮的，总是有话不说，吞吞吐吐。这时你就可以问他 Everything
all right with you?
4．be on speakerphone
speakerphone 是免提电话的意思。假设你正在看书，这时电话响了，你随手按了免提键，就可以用到这句话了：You are on
speakerphone。我在用免提和你说话。
