即将跨越2015年年关，唐顿庄园在圣诞节如期迎来了它的终结集：《2015圣诞特辑》，这部英剧无论是剧情设计、人物造型、演员表现、场景道具还是台词对白都是可圈可点。看完《2015圣诞特辑》，带着一丝欣慰、几分不舍和绵长回味，最后下定决心，将《唐顿庄园》作为本人训练英语听力和逼格英式发音的首选剧集加以珍藏和利用。
以下是本人针对唐顿庄园2015电影版摘录的精彩对白，希望与大家共同学习分享，进步提高。
场景一：即将离开庄园的管家副手Barrow向三位曾经关心帮助过他的同仁表示感谢：
Barrow：I'm glad I've got the three of you atlast. 正好你们三个都在 Baxter：What do you mean? 怎么了？ Barrow：I've never had a proper chance to say thank you for rescuing me,我一直没机会好好谢谢你们救了我 because there's always been other people around. 因为边上总是有别人在 Andraw：We were glad to do it. Baxter：The goodthing is, you can stay. - 我们很乐意- 好在你可以留下了 Barrow：They've given me a breathing space 他们只是多给了我点时间 but I can't live on pity for ever. 但我不能永远活在怜悯中 Anna：Still, it is a breathing space. Makethe most of it. 那也是段时间嘛 好好利用 Why not use the time to try andunderstand what brought you so low? 何不借机好好想想 你为什么这么低落呢？
场景二：Grantham老太太的两个仆人应了一句老话：“苍蝇不盯无缝的蛋”，Denker总喜欢打探Sparrat的隐私或抓他的把柄，而Sparrat对她的态度也是避之唯恐不及。下面的一段对话发生在Edith与Sparrat商讨给Sparrat增加专栏，并鼓励其多多投稿，被Denker窃听之后的一段对话：
Denker：Do you value honesty, Mr Spratt? 你看重诚实吗 斯普拉特先生 Sparrat：Of course I do. What a question. 当然了 这是什么问题 Denker：But you don't want to tell me why LadyEdith was here? 但你不想告诉我 伊迪丝小姐为什么过来吗 Sparrat：I value honesty and discretion, They are both virtues. 我看重诚实 也看重谨慎 两者都是美德 Denker：Because I wouldn't want to think you were keeping anything secret, or wrong, from my lady. 我可不想认为你在向我的老夫人瞒着什么见不得人的事 Sparrat：Anything wrong? 见不得人的事？ Involving Lady Edith Crawley, daughter of the Earl Of Grantham? 和格兰瑟姆伯爵千金 伊迪丝·卡劳利小姐吗 Are you mad? 你疯了吧 Denker： - No!- I am not mad, But I am curious. -不，我没疯，但我很好奇 Sparrat：Curiosity killed the cat. 小心好奇害死人
场景三：Violet与Isobel两位老太太在圣诞特辑并没针锋相对，两人心平气和地开始探讨起“黄昏恋”来了。
Violet：I am sorry. Really.我真的很抱歉 Isobel：The thing is, it seems odd to say it，but I find I'm desperately upset. 虽然说出来很奇怪，但我真的很难过 I keep bursting into tears.我总是忍不住哭出来 Violet：Well, of course you do. Why wouldn't you, when you're in love with him? 当然会啊，毕竟你爱着他嘛 Isobel：Am I ? 是吗？ That phrase conjures up for me dancecards and stolen kisses 这个词让我想起了舞会请柬和偷偷的吻 and Mama waiting below in thecarriage. 以及在马车上等我的妈妈 Not two old fuddy-duddies who canbarely manage the stairs. 不是两个连上楼梯都困难的老骨头 Violet：It's good to be in love, whatever age. 坠入爱河是幸事 无论年龄 Isobel：I can't think why I turned him down, I must have been mad. 我都不知道我当初为什么要拒绝他，我肯定是疯了 Violet：The course of true love never did runsmooth. 真爱从来都来之不易 Isobel：After Prince Kuragin, did you everfall in love again? 克拉根亲王之后 你还有爱上过谁吗 Violet：You must know by now 你不是不知道 I never answer any question more incriminating than whether or not I need a rug. 我不会回答任何会给我惹麻烦的问题
场景四：Barrow在临行离开庄园之前遇见老爷Robert与夫人Cora，Robert主动打招呼，Barrow上前向Robert夫妻及Mary问好，双方互道衷肠，表达各自的感激和祝愿。以下是他们之前的精彩对白中英对照台词：
 Robert ：Ah, Barrow. 巴罗 Barrow：Your lordship, your ladyship,老爷 夫人 I wanted to thank you for everything. 我想感谢你们做的一切 Lady Mary：You're not going now. 你不是现在就走吧 Barrow：On Sunday morning, m'lady.周日早晨 小姐 Robert ：We've known some adventures duringyour time with us. Barrow 我们共同经历了很多 巴罗 Barrow：I've learnt a great deal while I'vebeen here, my lord.我在这里学到了很多 老爷 Robert ：I'm afraid I've rather lectured you attimes, not too harshly, I hope. 恐怕我曾教训过你一两次，希望没有太过严厉 Barrow：On the contrary. I will begin my new position with a new spirit, 恰恰相反 我将以新的面貌迎接新的工作 and I have you to thank for that. 这点我得感谢您 Robert ：I'm glad if, on balance, it's beenrewarding for you. 你觉得有收获我很开心 Barrow：I arrived here as a boy, I leave as aman. 我来时还是个孩子 走时是个男人了 Please will you give my best wishes toLady Edith? 麻烦向伊迪丝小姐送上我的祝福 Cora：We'll always be so grateful to you forsaving her from the fire.我们会永远感激你从大火中救出她 Barrow：And it turns out I saved her for better things. 现在看来 她大难不死必有后福 Robert ：Very good luck to you, Barrow. 祝你好运 巴罗 Barrow：Thank you, my lord. 谢谢您 老爷
场景五：Tom与Henry两个男人聊天，两个大老爷们之间道出了很多女人可能难以理解的男人内心世界。
Tom：Can I join you? Henry：Of course. - 可以一起喝点吗 -当然 Mary's just gone down to see ifCarson's all right. 玛丽下楼去看卡森了 Tom：Is she OK about everything? 她还好吗 Henry：Well, I'd say she's concerned aboutwhat happens next, but that's allowed. 她确实担心接下来会发生什么，但这是可以理解的 Tom：It can be hard for women to understand that a man is what he does, to himself, anyway. 男人的事业是他的定义，女人有时候无法理解这一点 Henry：Uhm...Still, things could be worse. 当然 现在已经不错了 I'm fit, I have a wonderful wife, I must just decide how to spend my life. 我身体健康 有一位称心的妻子，我只需要决定要如何度过此生 Tom：Just? 只需要 Henry：Well, at least Mary's glad I've givenup racing, She always hated it. 至少玛丽为我退出赛车圈高兴，她一直讨厌赛车 Tom：She's not so glad. She'd rather youwere happy .她并没很开心 她更希望你快乐 Henry：I want to be happy, of course, but mainly I want to be worthy of her. 我当然想开心，但更想配得上她 and I know I sound like BulldogDrummond, but I do. 我知道我听着像在逞英雄，但我确实想配得上她
