Scene 1: From the movie Hitch选自电影《全民情敌》
剧情简介：亚历克斯·希钦斯从事的是个地下职业—约会顾问。每当男人们在求爱的过程中遇到困境时，只要有他出手相助总能柳暗花明，他因而也得了个绰号：全民情敌。就在一次泡吧时，这位恋爱专家发现了新的猎物。一番花言巧语之下，他以为自己已让对方乖乖落网，怎知这位在情场春风得意的老手这次却棋逢敌手了……
Alex: Now ①on the one hand, it is very difficult for a man to even speak to someone who looks like you. But on the other hand, should that be your problem?
Sara: ②So life’s kind of hard all around.
Alex: Well, ③not if you pay attention. I mean, you’re sending all the right signals: no earrings, heels under two inches, your hair is pulled back, you’re wearing reading glasses with no book, drinking a Grey Goose 1)martini which means you had a hell of a week and a beer just wouldn’t do it. And if that wasn’t clear enough... there’s always the “fuck offthat you have ④stamped on your forehead. Because who’s gonna believe that there’s a man out there that can sit down beside a woman he doesn’t know and 2)genuinely be interested in who she is, what she does, without his own 3)agenda?
Sara: Yeah, ⑤I wouldn’t even know what that would look like. So what would a guy like that say?
Alex: Well, he’d say, “My name is Alex Hitchens and I’m a consultant.” But she wouldn’t be interested in that because she’d be just counting the seconds until he left.
Sara: Thinking ⑥he was like every other guy.
Alex: Which, life experience has taught her, is
⑦ a virtual certainty. But then he’d ask her name and what she did for a living and she might
⑧blow him off. Or she might say....
Sara: I’m Sara Melas. I run the 4)gossip column at the Standard.
亚历克斯：就某方面来说，男人很难会跟像你这样的女人攀谈。但就另一方面来说，这不也是你的问题么？
萨拉：正所谓人生处处逢逆境。
亚历克斯：这个嘛，只要你多注意点就不会了。你所送出的信号再明了不过：没戴耳环、穿低跟鞋、头发向后梳起、戴眼镜却没看书；喝灰鹅马提尼则表明你刚度过糟糕的一周，而啤酒根本就不足以浇愁。如果这样还不够清楚的话，你的前额上还印着“滚蛋”两个字—因为谁会相信有男人还会坐到这个他并不认识的女人身边，真诚地希望知道她是谁，是做什么的，而不带着自己的私欲呢？
萨拉：我真不知道那会是什么样子的。那么，这样的一个男人会说些什么呢？
亚历克斯：这个嘛，他会说：“我叫亚历克斯·希金斯，是个顾问。” 但是她可能对这个完全不感兴趣，因为她也许正在盘算他还有多少秒钟才会离开。
萨拉：她认为他和其他男人没什么不同。
亚历克斯：生活经验告诉她，这与事实相差不远。不过之后，他会问她叫什么名字，做什么工作的，她可能会叫他滚蛋，或者她也可能说……
萨拉：我叫莎拉·密拉丝，《标杆日报》的八卦专栏作者。
