【张无忌专栏】听歌学作文
《SAD MOVIES》这首歌,短短几句歌词, 描述出六十年代美国的戏院风情,电影放映前,先播新闻片,中途加插卡通片, 还道出负心汉另结新欢,少女伤心流泪, 歌词是一篇经典的作文示范,年青人从中可学到写文章的要诀。以下中英对照,供大家细味。
He said he had to work so I went to the show alone (他说要加班,我独自看戏。) 美国那时的show是指电影。
They turned down the lights and turned the projector on(灯光收暗,亮起投映)。
And just as the news of the world started to begin, I saw my darling and my best friend walk in!(当播放新闻片时, 我看见情郎和我的闺中好友进场!)
Though I was sitting there they didn't see, and so they sat right down in front of me (我坐在当眼之处,他们视而不见,还坐正在我前面那一行)。
When he kisses her lips I almost die (他吻她时,我气得要死)。
And in the middle of the color cartoon, I started to cry(中场播映卡通片时,我泪如雨下)。
So I got up and slowly walked on home (我霍然离座回家)。
And mama saw the tears and said what's wrong?(妈问我何故泪流满面?)
I just said sad movies make me cry..... (我只好骗她说,是电影哀伤使我哭而已)。
歌词的醋雨酸风,写得赚人热泪, 尤以那句“看见爱郎与新欢携手Walk in”,无忌胸膛似被重重打了一拳,痛入心窝。
