影片对白  I came to Wellesley because I wanted to make a difference. But to change for others... is to lie to yourself.

文化面面观

Greenwich Village (美国纽约市作家等聚居的)格林威治村

Sunrise over West Greenwich Village & the New Jersey Hudson River Palisades
by Hubert J Steed

A residential section of the borough of Manhattan, New York City, usually regarded as comprising the area within West 14th Street on the north, Broadway on the east, West Houston Street on the south, and the Hudson River on the west. Although modern apartment buildings have been constructed, many of the district's 19th-century buildings remain, lining its narrow, winding streets. The hub of Greenwich Village is Washington Square Park, which contains Washington Arch. The New School for Social Research and the main campus of New York University are located here. Greenwich Village was settled in colonial times by residents of New York City, which was then confined to the region south of Wall Street. By the mid-19th century, the Village had become an integral part of New York. In the 1880s immigrants moved into the area in increasing numbers. Shortly after 1900, Greenwich Village began to attract artists, writers, actors, and political theorists from all parts of the U.S. In the 1970s Greenwich Village began to lose its dominance of new artistic and cultural trends in New York to SoHo, a neighborhood to the south.

思想火花

1953年的美国,时代正处于转变之中,妇女解放运动进行得如火如荼。虽然女性的地位渐渐收到重视,但在上层社会保守思想依然非常严重,在韦尔斯利这所著名的女子学校,学院对学生的教育并不是教他们如何获得自己感兴趣的学科知识,也不是重视心理教育,而是常以女学生的结婚对象作为衡量其地位的标准,把学生的成功与否定义为以后的婚姻。她们学习的目的就是嫁个好丈夫。标榜着女性独立自主的茱莉亚·罗伯茨成为保守校院里的怪女人,不过在她的引领下,一票女生却受到她的影响和启发,大胆选择更宽广的人生道路。

这个片段是影片的结尾,我们能看到这些受凯瑟琳影响的女生对她依依不舍的样子,尤其是过去最保守的贝蒂,而影片结尾处的这个段落的语言写得也非常漂亮,经常被一些英语学习节目拿来做范本,希望大家在欣赏影片的同时也能欣赏这段台词。

考考你

请大家模仿跟读台词中有颜色的段落,仔细体会这段语言的魅力。
