MJE美剧笔记:生活大爆炸S01E01penny来做客(3)

Leonard: Well, if that was a movie I would go see it.

Penny: I know, right? Okay, let’s see, whatelse? Um, that’s about it. That’sthe story of Penny.

Leonard: Well it sounds wonderful.

Penny: It was. Until I fell in love with ajerk.(Bursts into tears).

Sheldon (mouths): What’s happening.

Leonard (mouths back): I don’t know.

Penny: Oh God, you know, four years I lived with him, four years, that’s like as long as High School.

Sheldon: It took you four years to get through High School?

Leonard: Don’t.

Penny: I just, I can’t believe I trusted him (Jumps up and runs to kitchen. Sheldon immediately jumps into her seat.)

if that were ... , I would ... .
【释】标准虚拟语气为 if that were... I would...,这里用was代替were,是口语化的表现

【例】If I was a man they would have given me the job. (牛津高阶)

如果我是男的，那工作我肯定能争到。

【例】If it was not as good as what we expected, I would do it all over again. (自造)

如果不是我们事先预料的那么好的话,我愿意重做一遍。

That's about it
【释】used to say that you have finished telling somebody about something and there is nothing to add (自造)
就是这样了,说完一件事时用到

【例】-‘Anything else?’-‘No, that's about it for now.’(来自网络)
-还有吗？ -没了,目前就这些。

【例】... and the prince and the princess live happily from then on. That's about it, the banal form of fairy tales. (自造)
...王子和公主从此幸福生活,就是这样了,老掉牙的童话故事套路。
