久別重逢

1.慣用口語句子：

It's been a long time.

好久不見了。

這里的“It's”是“It has”的縮寫，而不是“It is”。

Long time no see.

好長時間沒見面了。

非正式用語。

I haven't seen you in years.

“in years”形容時問很長，并不一定是指“好幾年”。

= I'm glad to see you again.

很高興能夠再次見到你。

What a surprise to see you here!

= Fancy meeting you here!

= Imagine meeting you here!

= What a surprise!

= Never thought I'd see you here!

真沒想到會在這兒見到你!

What a small world!

= It's a small world.

這個世界真是太小了!

Small world，isn't it?

這個世界真小，不是嗎?

What luck running Into you again!

能再遇見你真是有幸!

How lucky!

真是有幸啊!

What(a) luck!真是有幸啊!

What have you been up to?

你一直忙些什么呢?

be up to“從事于”

How have you been doing lately?

近況如何?

lately ad. 近來，最近

Just so-so.

馬馬虎虎。

非正式用語。

So far so good.

到目前為止還好。

so far“到目前為止”

Same as usual.

= Same as always.

還是老樣子。

2.實用對話

3.詳細解說

1.“What，s new?”是見面打招呼時常用的寒暄語，可譯為“有什么新鮮事嗎?”或“有什么新變化嗎?”。

2.“go well”是“進展順利，進展得好”的意思，與“go smoothly”、“go fine”意義相同。

3.“get back”是“回來”的意思，例如：I have just got back from the company.(我剛從公司回來。)

4.“hold sb. up”的意思是“阻擋或耽誤某人(做某事)”，例如：Sorry，I，m late.I was held up at work.(對不起，我來晚了。我因

為工作上的事情耽誤了。)

5.“stay in touch"的意思是“保持聯(lián)系”，相當于“keep in touch”，例如：Anyway，we must stay/keep in touch.(無論如何，我們必須保持聯(lián)系。)

4.文化洗禮

《魂斷藍橋》：火車站的久別重逢

在影片《魂斷藍橋》(Waterloo Bridge)中，在戰(zhàn)爭中幸存下來的Roy滿心歡喜地回到家鄉(xiāng)，在火車站不期而遇已經(jīng)淪落風塵的戀人Myra。Roy喜出望外，他并不知道Myra的處境，還以為Myra是來接他的，于是講起話來滔滔不絕;可Myra卻只重復著一句“你還活著”。生活的辛酸無奈、命運的無情捉弄以及久別重逢的驚喜，都體現(xiàn)在下面這短短的幾句話里：

Roy: Myra! Myra! I can't believe it! It is you. isn't it? It's really you!

Myra: Oh Roy!

Roy: It's really you! Oh darling, let me look at you - I'm not dreaming, am I? Think of finding you here waiting for me. It's a miracle!

Myra: Roy, you're alive.

Roy: Over the months I've waited for this moment. I'd begun to think it would never come. How did you know I was coming? Did

you telephone mother? No darling, none of that. Chin up, where's your nerve? It's over, darling it's all over. We're together

for always.

Myra: Oh Roy, you're alive,

Roy:Yes, extravagantly. Oh, my poor darling, come on. we'll go sit down.
