1
What a morning.
2
I have no idea how they got this.
3
I specifically told my staff to destroy everything.
4
I can't imagine...
5
It doesn't matter how it happened.
6
We can't make it unhappen, so now we have to adapt.
7
Don't they realize that this is a first draft?
8
All we have here really is a perception problem.
9
We don't get a second chance at a first impression, Donald.
10
You know that.
11
Now, look, I'm on your side.
12
But Linda is furious.
13
What's she saying?
14
They want to point fingers. At me?
15
I told her we cannot do that.
16
I mean, you are vital to this process.
17
I'm up to here with them, Donald.
18
For lying, for turning their back on you.
19
You know, I'm of a mind to say, screw it.
20
I'll fall on this grenade myself just to piss them off.
21
Get me John King at CNN.
22
Wait, Frank, this is not your fault.
23
No, we have to protect your reputation.
24
No, but you're the man that needs to get the bill through the house.
25
I will, hang on.
26
I will assign it to one of my deputies and quietly manage it, and I'll help guide you through the process.
27
I am not comfortable with this.
28
Well, then what do you suggest we do?
29
What a martyr craves more than anything is a sword to fall on.
30
So you sharpen the blade, hold it at just the right angle, and then three, two, one.
31
It should be me.
32
It was my bill.
33
No, impossible.
34
Donald, education has been your life's work.
35
The truth is, my heart is not in this fight.
36
You know me.
37
I'm not a wheeler -dealer.
38
I could put my mind to policy, but I'm no good at this brand of politics.
39
Well, if not you, then who?
40
It should be you, Frank.
41
You're formidable.
42
People respect you.
43
They will follow your lead.
44
Let me be on the sidelines for this.
45
Well, I could only consider that as an option if I knew that I could still come to you for counsel. Of course.
46
Whatever you need.
47
Part of me is glad this got leaked.
48
Well, it would have been better if it hadn't, but at least people know where I stand.
49
Thank you, Donald.
50
Happy to do it, Frank.
51
He has no idea we got six kids in the next room already working on a new draft.
52
Stamper!
53
Why dampen his mood by telling him?
54
We just gave him a great gift, the chance to fulfill his destiny.
55
Write up a statement for Blythe, stepping aside, fresh ideas, etc., etc. Make it dignified he's a good man.
56
Oh, and bring me that Williams editorial.
57
After careful thought and discussion with my staff, I am relinquishing my management of the Education Reform Act.
58
I hope to remain a part of the process, but I won't be working...
59
Why did you leak the draft?
60
I'm not exactly sure how it got leaked, but it does represent exactly...
61
It came from your office though, Fred.
62
We wrote it, but I don't know...
63
Who'll be managing the bill now?
64
Frank Underwood.
65
Was that your choice, or did the administration...
66
I feel very confident placing the bill in Frank's capable hands.

影子跟读练习技巧

这段对话语速中等,语气充满紧张感与策略性,非常适合shadowing练习。建议使用shadowing site或shadowspeak工具辅助,先逐句播放,模仿每个单词的重音和语调,比如“screw it”的口语化重音,以及“Thank you, Donald”中隐含的算计感。注意对话中的停顿,比如“Get me John King at CNN. Wait, Frank...”的中断节奏,这是体现情绪的关键。每天坚持10分钟shadow speech训练,能有效提高英语发音和口语流畅度。刚开始跟不上也没关系,重复播放,重点抓语气和节奏,慢慢就能跟上对话的逻辑了。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
