Leonardo DiCaprio finally won his first Oscar for his portrayal of Hugh Glass in The Revenant, and he delivered a powerful message about climate change while accepting his award on Sunday night.
"Making The Revenant was about man's relationship to the natural world, a world that we collectively felt in 2015 as the hottest year in recorded history. Our production needed to move to the southern tip of this planet just to be able to find snow," he said of filming The Revenant in Argentina. "Climate change is real. It is happening right now. It's the most urgent threat facing our entire species, and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating...for the billions and billions of underprivileged people who are most affected by this, for our children's children..."
DiCaprio continued: "We need to support leaders around the world who do not speak for the big polluters or the big corporations, but who speak for all of humanity, for the indigenous people of the world, for the billions and billions of underprivileged people who will be most affected by this. For our children's children and for those people out there whose voices have been drowned out by the politics of greed, I thank you all for this amazing award tonight.
take for granted:意為「想當(dāng)然」,高考必考短語有沒有?老師是不是強(qiáng)調(diào)了很多遍take it for granted that……這樣的句型?
Thank you so very much:我們常說Thank you very much。但你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)老外用so much的場(chǎng)合要比very much更多。當(dāng)然,小李子在這里用了so very much也一定是發(fā)自肺腑。有一些比較正式的場(chǎng)合,你也會(huì)聽到Thank you very much indeed這樣的表達(dá)。
