[雙語(yǔ)]憤怒的小鳥(niǎo)“觸電”

What would happen if someone told you that you were the last of your species?
如果有人告訴你，你是自己族群的最后一個(gè)幸存者，那會(huì)怎樣呢？

Would you feel privileged or anxious? And what if you find out there’s another member of your species?
你會(huì)感到幸運(yùn)還是焦慮？而如果你找到了另一個(gè)同類，又將會(huì)是怎樣呢？

Inspired by the hugely popular phone game Angry Birds, the film Rio opened in theaters all over Asia on April 8.
以大熱手機(jī)游戲《憤怒的小鳥(niǎo)》為創(chuàng)造靈感的電影《里約大冒險(xiǎn)》已于4月8日在亞洲全線上映。

As The New York Times put it, Angry Birds is “perhaps the first game to make the leap from cell phone screens to the mainstream.”
正如《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》評(píng)論的那樣，《憤怒的小鳥(niǎo)》“或許是首款從手機(jī)屏幕飛躍成為主流文化的游戲。”

However, the film version tells a different story. It joyfully celebrates the magnificent city, Rio de Janeiro, and the glorious feathers of its parrots.
不過(guò)，電影版講述了一個(gè)不同的故事。它用詼諧的方式來(lái)歌頌了里約熱內(nèi)盧這座宏偉的城市以及鸚鵡身披的華麗羽毛。

It opens in the jungle of Brazil at sunrise, when the birds wake up and * flap their colorful wings to the samba.
故事從日出時(shí)分的巴西叢林中展開(kāi)，鳥(niǎo)兒醒來(lái)，拍動(dòng)彩色翅膀，跳起桑巴舞。

Blu, an orphan baby macaw, tests his courage with a trial flight. He is just ready to spread his wings!
金剛鸚鵡布魯是個(gè)孤兒，他打算試飛一下以測(cè)試自己的膽量。他正準(zhǔn)備揮動(dòng)翅膀！

Suddenly smugglers arrive, and take the macaw to a snow-covered town in Minnesota, US.
突然走私者來(lái)了，把這只金剛鸚鵡帶到了美國(guó)明尼蘇達(dá)州一座被白雪覆蓋的小鎮(zhèn)。

Luckily, Blu finds a lovely owner called Linda. He becomes a nerdy resident at a bookstore, with a love for reading and enjoying chocolate and marshmallows.
幸運(yùn)的是，布魯遇到了一位可愛(ài)的主人——琳達(dá)。從此他成了一家書(shū)店的常駐居民，這個(gè)書(shū)呆子愛(ài)讀書(shū)，喜歡吃巧克力和果汁軟糖。

Soon, he forgets his sunny hometown. But the arrival of a scientist changes his life. He now believes he’s the last rare macaw on earth.
不久，他就將自己陽(yáng)光明媚的家鄉(xiāng)拋在了腦后。而一位科學(xué)家的到來(lái)改變了他的生活。從那時(shí)起，他相信自己是世界上僅存的一只金剛鸚鵡。

Later he discovers there’s another – and that it’s a female. He leaves the comfort of his cage and travels to Rio. But it’s far from love at first sight. Blu is an insecure bird who finds flying challenging. In contrast, Jewel is a fiercely independent and freedom loving female parrot. She desires to go back to the jungle.
后來(lái)他發(fā)現(xiàn)了還有另一只金剛鸚鵡——而且是雌性的。他離開(kāi)了舒適的鳥(niǎo)籠，開(kāi)始了前往里約熱內(nèi)盧的旅行。但它們絕非一見(jiàn)鐘情。布魯是只不會(huì)飛的缺乏安全感的小鳥(niǎo)。而恰恰相反，珠兒（音譯）是一只極為獨(dú)立，熱愛(ài)自由的雌鸚鵡。她渴望回到叢林中。

On their way they nearly fall into the clutches of the smugglers, who want to sell them for a fortune. Also, they have to chase away an evil pet cockatoo called Nigel.
在途中，他們差點(diǎn)落入想用他們換來(lái)財(cái)富的走私者手中。此外，他們還必須趕走一只叫奈杰的邪惡美冠鸚鵡。布魯和珠兒隨后的遭遇可謂勁爆，故事就在里約熱內(nèi)盧盛大的狂歡節(jié)中走向高潮。此時(shí)的布魯不得不戰(zhàn)勝自己對(duì)飛翔的恐懼來(lái)贏得“夢(mèng)中情人”的芳心。

With contagious Latin dance beats and breathtaking landscapes, Rio looks and sounds stunning. It’s a film full of affection and humor.
《里約大冒險(xiǎn)》中充滿了頗具感染力的拉丁舞節(jié)奏和壯麗景色，無(wú)論是從聽(tīng)覺(jué)還是從視覺(jué)來(lái)看都十分震撼。這可謂是一部充滿了溫情和幽默感的電影。
