Torrance: No! Those are your priorities! Mine are just fine.

妙語佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. At ease
這個短語的意思是“安心；自在；不拘束”，在影片里也就是“放輕松”。這個詞也可以作為口令，就是我們上體育課常說的“稍息”。請看例句：The dentist soon put the small girl at ease. 牙醫(yī)很快使小女孩的情緒放松了。
2. get in your way
意思是“阻礙你；妨礙你”。“Get in one’s way”有“擋路”或“阻礙”的意思。比如：He is busy with his work now. Don't get in his way. 他很忙，別妨礙他。
3. It just kills you that I'm not an honor student.
“我不是模范生真是要了你的命了”。Honor student 是指“優(yōu)秀學(xué)生”或“模范生”?！癶onor”在這里是“模范、榮譽(yù)”的意思。相似的用法有：honor president，榮譽(yù)主席。It kills… 是一種夸張、強(qiáng)調(diào)的說法，下文中的mothers have killed to get their daughters on squads 也是同樣的用法，意思是“媽媽們拼了命也要讓女兒進(jìn)啦啦隊”。
4. in great shape
這里指“學(xué)得好”，也就是在學(xué)習(xí)方面有好的狀態(tài)。“In shape”指的是“處于良好的狀態(tài)”。比如：Athletes must stay in shape. 運動員一定要保持良好狀態(tài)。
