Kevin felt pride. He was going to be the one to find his tribe the biggest baddest?villain?to serve.

Stuart felt hungry mostly?.

He was going to be the one to eat this banana.

語言點講解:

①Far longer=much longer

②They go by many names=They have many different names; they are called in different ways.

③Idiot(白癡,傻蛋),同義詞為stupid。我們也可以說a retarded person。Retarded意為智力遲鈍、弱智的意思。常常有冒犯的意味。

④小黃人的電影就叫《Despicable Me》(卑鄙的我)。Despicable這個詞意為Someone who is really bad, disgusting and morally evil, so they deserve despise and rejection.(某人壞透了,令人厭惡,道德敗壞,所以他們活該被鄙視被拋棄)

⑤Tricky= Difficult, complicated

⑥同義詞:nonetheless= nevertheless

⑦Keep on looking這里后面有省略。完整的意為Continued looking for the most despicable master around(繼續(xù)尋找身邊最卑鄙的卑鄙大王)。

⑧如果出現(xiàn)了困難,難題,你“step forward”(上前),你就是自愿或是決定成為領(lǐng)頭羊,帶領(lǐng)大家一起解決問題。

⑨我們都知道bad的最高級是worst。在美國俚語中,baddest有worst的意思,但是更多是the greatest的意思(最棒的,最好的),而在某些程度上也是the best(最棒的)的意思。所以說這里the baddest villain=the best villain。

⑩反義詞:villain - hero

?在這里mostly=usually;通常的解釋為almost entirely(幾乎完全)

?Ahead:(空間上)你的前面;(時間上)近未來
