【語(yǔ)言點(diǎn)講解】

①WISH= 這個(gè)動(dòng)詞后面跟過(guò)去式（或"would"）:"I wish I wasn't afraid."（我希望我不會(huì)害怕。）

②PEOPLE= 在這句臺(tái)詞中，第一個(gè)”people“指的是“人”，最后一個(gè)“people”指的是“民族” （因?yàn)橐粋€(gè)民族社會(huì)是由個(gè)人群體組成的）。所以第一個(gè)詞是復(fù)數(shù)，第二個(gè)詞是單數(shù)。

例句：

1- People here are very nice ( 1 person, 2 people)?這里的人們都很友善（1個(gè)人用“person”,2個(gè)人用“people”）

2- My people wants more freedom. All the peoples in the world need peace.?人民群眾都想要更多的自由。全世界所有民族都需要和平。

③VIOLATION= Transgression（違反）（打破，違反紀(jì)律）

④CURFEW= 指在某一個(gè)時(shí)間后禁止人們?cè)诮值郎匣顒?dòng)的一項(xiàng)禁令。

⑤LENIENCY=（比較正式的用法）寬大處理。"Lenient"的反義詞是“harsh, strict”(嚴(yán)格)[/cn]

⑥WE'RE WORKING ON SEVERAL LEADS= We have several lines of investigation; we are investigating different possibilities.

⑦FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH= 如果某些東西從地球表面上清除掉的話，那他們就消失了（可能被殺掉了），而且不可能再找回來(lái)。

⑧CODE NAME V=?一個(gè)代號(hào)叫“V”的人。單詞“V”（等于羅馬字符中的“5”）指的是11月5號(hào)（蓋伊·?？怂贡粓?zhí)行死刑的日子)。

⑨WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE= 如果你對(duì)某事“held accountable”的話，那就要對(duì)這件事有責(zé)任，并要因此付出代價(jià)。

⑩ON THE EDGE OF= 跟某物非常近，非常接近。。。

?OBLIVION= （正式用法）遺忘。如果某物“falls in oblivion”，那么它就被遺忘了，而且沒有人記得它。在這里，總統(tǒng)害怕人們忘記了他們是多么地需要政府。

?VERDICT= 由法官或陪審團(tuán)宣布的判決，判定一個(gè)犯人有罪與否及對(duì)其采取的處罰。

?VENGEANCE= 復(fù)仇（Revenge）。意大利語(yǔ)的“復(fù)仇”是"vendetta"。
