英文歌词
Only you can make all this world seem right. Only you can make the darkness bright. Only you, and you alone, can thrill me like you do, and fill my heart with love for only you.
Only you can make all this change in me, for its true you are my destiny 1. When you hold my hand, I understand the magic that you do. Youre my dream come true, my one and only you.
中文歌词
唯有妳能使这世界变得美好;唯有妳能照亮黑暗。唯有妳,就只有妳一个人,能令我如此心动,并使我心里只爱妳一个。
只有妳能引起我这样改变,因为说真的,妳是我命运的主宰。当妳握着我的手,我能体会妳所发出的神奇力量。妳是我梦想的实现,我唯一的爱人。
字词句型分析
1.darkness n. 黑暗, 不明
例:The house was in complete darkness due to a power failure.
(这房子因停电而一片漆黑。)
2.bright a. 光亮的; 聪明的
例:The garden is bright with sunshine. (花园里阳光普照。)
She is bright beyond her years. (她的聪明超过她的年龄。)
3.Only you, and you alone, can thrill me like you do,...只有妳能使我如此心动……
a.thrill vt. 使感动
例:The scene thrilled the onlookers 2.(这情景使旁观者感动。)
thrilling a. 令人震颤的; 令人激动的
例:After hearing this thrilling news, she burst out crying.
(听到这令人震颤的消息后,她哭了出来。)
b.上句中的like为介系词, 其后应接名词或代名词做其受词, 其意为『像……』。
例:He studies very hard like Peter.(他像彼得一样非常用功。)
若用 as 造句, 因其为连接词, 故后面要接主词、动词, 形成副词子句。
例:He studies very hard as Peter does.(他像彼得一样非常用功。)
但现在口语中, 甚至在文章中, 常用 like 当做连接词, 取代 as 的用法, 唯正式英文, 仍用 as 较妥。
例:As/Like I said, Peter can speak five different languages.(正如我所言,彼得能说五种语言。)
故解说 3 中的句子实应为:Only you...can thrill me as you do.
4.fill A with B 用B充满A
例:He filled his brush with paint.(他把刷子沾满油漆。)
5.destiny n. 命运
destine vt. 使命中注定 (常用于被动语态)
be destined 3 to V 注定……
例:He was destined never to meet her again.(他命中注定再也见不到她。)
6.magic n. 魔法
例:The fairys magic changed the two brothers into swans.
(仙人的魔法使那两兄弟变成天鹅。)
7.Youre my dream come true...
→Youre my dream that has come true...妳是我梦想的实现……。
*其中形容词子句的that has (或which has) 由于经常使用, 故通常予以省略
