Bruce Wayne/Batman: [To the Joker] What were you trying to prove? That deep down, everyone’s as ugly as you?! You’re alone!
— The Dark Knight (2008)
布鲁斯·韦恩(蝙蝠侠):[对Joker]你做这一切想要证明什么呢?想证明在内心深处,每个人都像你一样丑陋吗?!你错了!
— 黑暗骑士(2008)
注:
(1) Deep down,意思是:在心底、内心深处、本质上。deep down的英文解释为:At bottom, basically。例句:Deep down, she was still a rebel. 本质上,她仍然是一个叛逆者。
(2) What were you trying to prove? (你想要证明什么?)是一句你可以脱口而出的地道美语,试试流利地把它大声说出来,或者在下一次的英文对话中用上它,绝对会为你的美语口语加分哦。
