Junior: That's cool.
Intermediate: Awesome.
Advanced: That was pretty hardcore.
[Xiaoxi Smile] These three theories appear in this episode. Among them, cool is "too cool" everyone will say; awesome "very good and powerful" has been used very frequently by Abao in the first part of "Kung Fu Panda". In this episode, the slang term hardcore appears many times, and it has a double meaning in the film. First, as an adjective alone, it is equivalent to awesome; second, if someone is hardcore, it means that one is serious, tenacious, and will not give up easily, and it means "tough guy". A Bao has repeatedly said that the fierce tiger is a hardcore iron lady.
2. Complaining about "tragedy"
It was the worst day of my life. By far nothing else came close. It was the worst, most painful, mind-destroyed, horrible moment I have ever experienced.
This is the saddest day in my life. So far, nothing can be achieved. That was the most tragic, painful, brain-wrenching, and horrible moment I have ever experienced.
【小西Smile】It was the worst day of my life. We usually talk about this layer at most. In order to strengthen the tone, you can also add a comparison with things you have encountered in the past: there is nothing you can do. Finally, I modified it with a series of adjectives, which is simply too sad to say. This kind of expression is powerful enough.
3. Playing tricks
-I found your stupidity mildly amusing.
I think you are a bit funny.
-Thank you, but I found your evilness is extremely annoying.
Thank you, but I think you are so bad that you hate it.
-Who do you think you are, panda? Who do you think you are, panda
?
-Who do you think I am, peacock? Who do you think I am, peacock
?
[Xiaoxi Smile] Respond with the same sentence pattern as the other party, substituting the key words and sentences cleverly. Note that stupidity corresponds to evilness, amusing corresponds to annoying, and mildly corresponds to extremely. This bickering is bright! Being imprisoned by bad guys can still be in the mood to play tricks with others. I am afraid that there is only a Shenlong hero with a mental quality like A Bao, right? (In fact, it is just heartless and lungless...)
4.
Your story may not have a such happy begining, but that doesn't make who you are. It is the rest of your story, who you choose to be.
The beginning of your life story may be full of ups and downs, but this does not affect who you become. The key depends on your later life path, you choose how to go on.
[Xiaoxi Smile] Maybe we still remember the sentence that the tortoise master said in the first part of "Kung Fu Panda": Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the "present". The puns are so good! The sentence of the second goat master also moved Ah Bao and the audience.
5. Little Philosophy
-How did you find peace? I took away your parents, everything. I scared you for life.
How do you achieve inner peace? I let your parents die and become homeless. I have burned an indelible scar on your life.
-Scars heel.
The scar will heal.
-No, they don't, wounds heel.
The wound is not called healing, the wound will heal or something.
-Oh, yeah. What Scars do? They fade I guess
? Will it fade away?
-I don't care what scars do.
I don't care what happens to the scar.
-You should. You gotta let go that stuff from the past, cause it doesn't matter. The only thing it matters, is what you choose to be now.
You should care about it. Let the past things pass, because they don’t really matter. The important thing is to choose who you are now.
[Xiaoxi Smile] Wounds will always heal, and the scars will slowly fade away. It's really a very good and in place metaphor. You should remember this vivid method when you usually express it in English. But what’s even more commendable is that in order to maintain Abao’s silly personality, even in this very serious and reasonable part, he still leaves a burden for him to play, and maintains the unity of the characters and roles.
