看生活大爆炸學(xué)英語(yǔ)第一季第六集

【劇情介紹】

Sheldon和Leonard在Penny的party上暗地里取笑Penny的前男友塊頭大智商不高.

SHELDON:What do you suppose he's doing here?Besides?disrupting?the local gravity field.

LEONARD: If he were any bigger, he'd have moons orbiting him.

SHELDON:Oh, snap.

LEONARD: Ha-ha.

SHELDON:So I guess we'll be leaving now.

LEONARD:Why should we leave? For all we know, he crashed the party and Penny doesn't even want him here.

SHELDON: You have a backup hypothesis?

LEONARD:Maybe they just wanna be friends.

SHELDON: Or maybe she wants to be friends and he wants something more.

LEONARD:Then he and I are on equal ground.

SHELDON: ?Yes, but you're much closer to it than he is.

LEONARD: Look, if this was 1 5,000 years ago, by virtue of his size and strength Kurt would be entitled to his choice of female partners.

SHELDON: ?And male partners, animal partners, large primordial eggplants pretty much whatever tickled his fancy.

LEONARD: Yes, but our society has undergone a paradigm shift. In the information age, Sheldon, you and I are the alpha males.And we shouldn't have to back down.

SHELDON:True, Why don't you text him that and see if he backs down?

LEONARD: No.I'm going to assert my dominance face to face.

SHELDON: Face to face? Are you gonna wait for him to sit down or you gonna stand on the coffee table?

LEONARD: Hello, Penny. Hello, Kurt.

PENNY: Oh, hey, guys. You having a good time?

SHELDON: Given the reaction to my costume, this party is a scathing indictment of the American education system.

2 For all we know與as we known意思相同

3 by virtue of由于,依靠,四六級(jí)常考詞組.

5 tickle fancy 喜歡,中意.偶發(fā)現(xiàn)Sheldon不會(huì)用常用詞表達(dá)他的意思, like可以說成tickle fancy, 但是有些文縐縐的.
