SCENE③ B 吉娜去她老板的隔間看他
【我得要有動(dòng)力】
Vince: Your 3.5 percent 1) share is going to be worth at least a million.
文斯： 你那百分之三·五的股權(quán)，將會(huì)值個(gè)百萬(wàn)以上。
Zina: I need to be 2) motivated, Vince. 3) Multi-motivated. As in multi-million.
吉娜： 我得要有動(dòng)力，文斯。多重動(dòng)力，多重百萬(wàn)的多重。
Vince: What if I said no?
文斯： 要是我說(shuō)不呢？
Zina: Ever hear of WebTracker?
吉娜： 有聽(tīng)過(guò)“網(wǎng)路搜尋家”嗎？
Vince: You wouldn't! If you leave, you'll make nothing.
文斯： 你不會(huì)那樣吧！你若是離開(kāi)，連半毛都賺不到。
Zina: I might make nothing even if I stay. For that kind of risk, I want to get rich.
吉娜： 我留下搞不好也賺不到半毛。 基于這種風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，我要發(fā)財(cái)。
Vince: OK. If you sign the Stars.com 4) account before WebTracker does, we'll talk next week.
文斯： 好吧。若是你早“網(wǎng)路搜尋家”一步簽下Stars.com這個(gè)客戶(hù)，我們就等下星期再談。

語(yǔ)言詳解
A: Don't you want to go and exercise?
你不想在運(yùn)動(dòng)嗎？
B: Yes, but I can't seem to get motivated.
想，可是我沒(méi)有動(dòng)力。

【用 as in... 做補(bǔ)述】
as in這個(gè)短語(yǔ)是用來(lái)補(bǔ)述，好讓意思能讓人更明白，常用在解釋拼字的時(shí)候：
A: My name is Meg.
我叫做梅格。
B: Is that M as in Mary, E as in elephant, and G as in girl?
那是Mary的m、elephant的e，girl的g嗎？
as in可以用來(lái)進(jìn)一步解釋情況，猶如中文里的“像……那種”：
A: I just ate a Chinese buffet for only 2.99 dollars.
我剛只花了2.99美元吃了份中式自助餐。
B: As in the all-you-can-eat kind? That's so cheap!
是吃到飽的那種嗎？還真便宜！
你也可以用as in來(lái)提問(wèn)，以確定自己沒(méi)有誤會(huì)對(duì)方的意思:
A: I made a million last year.
我去年賺了一百萬(wàn)。
B: Is that as in dollars?
你說(shuō)的一百萬(wàn)是美元嗎？
