E03｜ flipped buddy beware Chapter 3 筆記

第三章后半部分布萊斯談?wù)撝炖驎r(shí)的心態(tài)開始變化，他原本以為朱莉忽視他后他會(huì)高興，但是沒有。布萊斯甚至不自主的認(rèn)真觀察朱莉，注意到她的很多細(xì)節(jié)。最后還想讓朱莉知道他在想他。

布萊斯以及發(fā)現(xiàn)自己喜歡上了朱莉，但為什么又不告訴朱莉呢？

因?yàn)樵谒麄兿嗵幍牧昀?，布萊斯和朱莉?qū)儆诓煌澜绲膬蓚€(gè)小孩。朱莉熱情開朗，布萊斯自命不凡，虛榮還帶點(diǎn)小男生的慫。

他很納悶自己為什么會(huì)對(duì)那個(gè)他討厭的女孩子產(chǎn)生好感。對(duì)于布萊斯這樣的男孩子來(lái)說(shuō)，喜歡上自己討厭的女孩子有些不可思議。不過(guò)這和生活中的人們沒有太大的區(qū)別，有時(shí)候很難說(shuō)一定就能找到那個(gè)自己喜歡的類型，并且還可以和自己喜歡的人談戀愛。

大多數(shù)時(shí)候，我們都是被那些和自己不一樣的人吸引，然后開始一段新的旅程。和布萊斯一樣，當(dāng)有一個(gè)自己討厭的女孩子喜歡上自己時(shí)，第一反應(yīng)就是逃避。不愿意去接納她，朱莉做的事情在布萊斯看來(lái)都是不可理喻的，這就是為什么布萊斯發(fā)現(xiàn)自己喜歡朱莉之后他不肯面對(duì)自己的情感，喜歡上自己討厭的人會(huì)讓布萊斯覺得沒面子。

結(jié)尾這段布萊斯就坦誠(chéng)自己內(nèi)心。After all,the last thing I needed was for Juli Baker to think I missed her.

這段外公的吃穿住行的表述很細(xì)膩，拿來(lái)用到我們寫作中就很高級(jí)了。

My grandfather's big man with a meaty nose and greased-back salt-and-pepper hair.He lives in house slippers and a sports coat,and I've never seen a whisker on him.They grow, but he shaves them off like three times a day.It's a real recreational activity for him.

Besides his meaty nose, he's also got big meaty hands.I suppose you's notice his hands regardless.but what makes you realize just how beefy they are is his wedding ring.That thing's never going to come off,and even though my mother says that's how it should be,I think he ought to get it cut off.Another few pounds and that ring's going to amputate his finger.

本章有關(guān)于餐桌上的情景我們?nèi)粘Ｉ钜矔?huì)遇到，下面這段素材非常好的口語(yǔ)素材。

At dinner my mother asked me why I was so sulky, and she kept looking from me to my grandfather.Granddad didn't seem to need any salt, which was a good thing because I might have thrown the shaker at him.

My sister and dad were all business as usual, though.Lynetta ate about two raisiness out if her carrot salad, then peeled the skin and meat off her chicken wing and nibbled gristle off the bone, while my father filled up airspace talking about office politics and the need for a shakedown in upper management.

No one was listening to him-no one ever does when he gets on one of his if-I-ran-the-circus jags-but for once Mom wasn't even pretending.And for once she wasn't trying to convince Lynatta that dinner was delicious either. She just kept eyeing me and granddad, trying to pick up on why we were miffed at each other.
