看《天使與惡魔》學口語:伽利略的三部曲
【影片介紹】
《天使與魔鬼》於2009年5月7日在日本率先上映。影片講述幾天後,列奧納多在實驗室裡被殘忍地殺害,哈佛大學符號學專家的羅伯特•蘭登,順風順水地被歐洲原子核研究組織領導和警方邀請協助破案,此時已經沒有太多的時間讓蘭登來思考"光照派"的復興,因為裝載"反物質"的懸浮罐體在離開研究所24小時後就會失去動力,若是湮滅發生,那將會是人類歷史上、宗教歷史上最大的災難。
【選詞片段】
Vittoria: What made you so sure the segno’s there?
Robert: The number 503. I kept seeing it over and over again illuminati letters scribbled in the margins sometimes just signed “503”. It’s a numeric clue. But to what? Five? Well, that’s a meaningful number to the illuminati. There’s the pentagram. Pythagoras, dozens of other examples in science. But what about three? Didn’t make sense until I thought, what if it’s Roman Numerals?
Vittoria: DIII, D-three.
Robert: Galileo’s third text. Dialogue, Discorso, diagramma.
Robert: Yeah. Just a few days with this and I could have actually finished my book…and sold dozens of copies at the Harvard bookstore.
Vittoria: Diagram of truth. I know about Dialogue ND Discorso. Galileo laid out his theories about the earth revolving around the sun.
Robert: Yes, and said. The Earth was not the center of some universe……with heaven above, hell below as the church had said.
Vittoria: So they forced him to recant in the second book. But what was this one?
Robert: This is how he got the word out. This is the truth, not what the Vatican forced him to write, smuggled out of Rome, printed in Holland o sedge papyrus, see? That way any scientist caught with a copy. Could just throw it in water and Galileo’s hersy would dissolve, disappear. And between that and Vatican burnings……it’s possible that, this is the only copy that remains. And if I’m correct…the segno is hidden on page number~~Five.
【知識點】
1. over and over again
維特多利亞問到什麼使你這麼確定那個就在這裡。蘭柏回答到說,那個數字503,我一次又一次地得看到503這個標記不斷得出現,這是一條很重要的數字線索。Over and over again的意思是一次又一次,再三。
2. dozens of
這是圖解這本書,數十個有個科學的例子都在其中,但是數字3又是什麼意思呢?直到我想到那個才弄清楚明白,羅馬數字三代表著什麼意思呢?代表著是伽利略的三部曲。單個的dozens表示一打,12個的意思,dozens of 表示泛指,數十個。
3. force to
蘭柏在上面解釋到但是伽利略等科學家們的言論嚴重影響了教廷的地位,所以他採用一種特殊的材料寫書,當教廷發現他們時,把書丟進水中,上面的字跡就會消失。而且這三部曲不是別人迫使他寫的,而是他自己發現的宇宙真理。Force to迫使某人去做某事。這裡是迫使伽利略去寫書。
