影片对白

Po: Sorry, dad.

Dad: Sorry doesn't make the noodles. What were you doing up there? All that noise?

Po: Oh nothing...just uh....had a crazy dream.

Dad: About what? What were you dreaming about?

Po: What was I… uh…I was dreaming about...uh…noodles.

Dad: Noodles? You were really dreaming about noodles?

Po: Uh...Yeah. What else would I be dreaming about? Oh careful, that soup is...sharp!

Dad: Oh, happy day! My son finally having the noodle dream! You don’t know how long I have been waiting for this moment. This is a sign, Po!

Po: Uh...A sign of what?

Dad: You are almost ready to be entrusted with the secret ingredient of my secret ingredient soup. And then you will fulfill your destiny and take over the restaurant just as I took it over from my father who took it over from his father who won it from a friend in a game of mahjong.

Po: Dad, dad,dad, it was just a dream.

Dad: No, it was THE dream. We are noodle folk. Broths run though our veins.

Po: But dad, didn't you ever...I dunno...wanna do something else? Something besides noodles?

Dad: Actually, when I was young and crazy, I thought about running away and learning about how to make tofu.

Po: So why didn't you?

Dad: Oh because it was a stupid dream! Can you imagine me making tofu? Ha ha ha…tofu! No! We all have our places in this world and mine is here and yours is...

Po: I know...is here.

Dad: No, it's a table 2, 5, 7 and 12. Service with a smile!

 

妙语佳句，活学活用

1. entrust：信赖,信托,交托。在这里是“传”的意思。阿宝的爸爸说：“我终于可以把我的秘之又秘的私酿密汤的配方传给你了。”

看两个例句：

He entrusted his children to a faithful friend. 他把他的孩子嘱托给一位忠实的朋友照料。

I entrust you with the care of my property. 我托你照管我的财产。

2. fulfill：履行, 实现, 完成。在台词中，“fulfill your destiny”可以理解为“履行你的使命”。

来看以下几个用法。

满足要求：fulfill a requirement

履行债务：fulfill obligation

实现抱负：fulfill oneself

完成工时定额：fulfill the hour norm

那我现在就满足你的愿望。 Let me fulfill your wish.

音乐似乎成就了我的生活。It seems to fulfill my life.

3. take over：把...从一地带到另一地，接收，接手，接管。台词中是“接手”的意思。

来看几个例句：

我是不是要接管他的工作？Am I to take over his work?

你歇会儿, 我来替你。Have a rest. I'll take over.

我们打算要他们接管。We intend them to take over.

4. folk：人们、家属、亲属、民族、种族、部落、群众。这句台词可以理解为“我们是面条世家。”

例句：

富人朋友多。Rich folk have many friends.

懒人躲懒最费力。Lazy folk take the most pains.

5. Broths run though our veins. 我们的血管里流淌着面汤。broth是肉汤。vein（血管, 静脉, 叶脉, 翅脉, 矿脉, 纹理, 性情）在这里指血管。

6. mahjong：麻将牌。又可以写成mahjongg, mahjong, mah-jong or mah-jongg。它的英文发音和中文“麻将”很像，因为麻将这个词是由中国引入到英语国家的。类似的词语还有很多，比如Cheongsam（长衫，旗袍），Chop suey（杂碎），Coolie（苦力），Dim sim （点心），Feng shui（风水），Kowtow（叩头），等等。在影片的名字Kung fu Panda中，Kong fu（功夫）也是这样一个词语。

7. Service with a smile. 微笑服务。

例如：

这家酒店由于率先推出微笑服务而名声鹊起。 This hotel became famous overnight, because it was the first to promote service with a smile.
