yr: jessica, 你今天晚上有空么?let me treat you to a big movie。
jessica: 啊?a big movie?
yr: 对啊!我想请你看大片儿!就是最近特火的那部好莱坞电影!
jessica: oh! you're talking about the hollywood blockbuster that's been on since yesterday. we use the word "blockbuster" to describe films that have big production, widespread popularity and financial success。
yr: 我明白了,大片儿在美语里就是blockbuster. b-l-o-c-k-b-u-s-t-e-r, blockbuster. 就是大制作,大宣传,票房收益又好的电影。
jessica: 没错!怡茹, why do you want to go watch this blockbuster? 看电影可不便宜!
yr: 嗨,轻松轻松呗!再说,there are a lot of movie stars in this blockbuster. it must be a good movie!
jessica: well, not all star-studded movies have good stories or acting。
yr: 等等,你刚才说star-studded,这是什么意思?
jessica: star-studded is spelled s-t-a-r-s-t-u-d-d-e-d. it means a great proportion of the actors in a movie are well-known。
yr: 我明白了,star-studded 意思就是众星云集,明星大荟萃。
jessica: yes. for example, you can say, "i want to watch this movie because it has a star-studded cast."
yr: i see. 哎,快过春节了,quite a few star-studded movies are coming out for the holiday season。
jessica: they are all festive to keep up with the holiday spirit。
yr: 贺岁片当然是轻松喜庆啦,谁要在节日看大哭片儿嘛!对了,特别赚人眼泪,让人感动或者难过的哭片,要怎么说呢?
jessica: those movies are called tearjerker. t-e-a-r-j-e-r-k-e-r, tearjerker. a tearjerker is a sentimental movie or performance that intends to move its audience to tears。
yr:i don't like tearjerkers─i only watch movies that make me laugh!
jessica: good for you! now let's see what you've learned today!
yr: 大片儿是blockbuster; 众星云集的是 star-studded;催人泪下的哭片则是tearjerker。
