情態副詞

Can take one Guinness world record, which is obviously a massive achievement,

能拿到一個金氏世界紀錄顯然是個巨大的成就，

but to take another nine that says something, you're not going away and guess what?

再拿 9 次代表你絕非泛泛之輩或曇花一現，你猜怎麼著？

I'm Terry Turbo Burrows, the fastest window cleaner in the world.

我是 Terry Turbo Burrow，世界上清窗戶最快的人。

When I found out there was a world record,

我發現有這個世界紀錄的時候，

I had to work out the maths, the movements, the training it's gonna need.

我必須去計算數學、動作和它所需要的訓練。

When I first started out, my uncle Alfie taught me how to use the squeegee and applicator

剛開始時，我叔叔 Alfie 教我如何使用刮水器和塗抹器，

and they would start wetting up with the right end with the applicator

他們會用塗抹器從右邊開始打溼玻璃，

and then switch it over and scrooge it off.

我想，為什麼不直接把它弄溼…

Terry had a talent and he wondered where it might take him.

Terry 很有天賦，而他不禁好奇這會將他帶往何處。

I come down and make myself some coffees, probably about three or four.

下床後給自己沖咖啡，大概三、四杯。

I got myself a window and fixed it on the back of the garden shed and I was practicing the way.

我找了扇窗，把它固定在花園棚子後面，訓練就開始了。

And what was hilarious about all this was our neighbor mowing the lawn and be looking at me thinking,

搞笑的地方是，我的鄰居修草坪時，看著我想

why is he cleaning that window over and over again?

「為什麼他一直重複在清那扇窗？」

But the window don't go through anywhere.

那個窗戶沒有穿過任何一道牆。

Terry entered his first competition aged 40.

Terry 四十歲時第一次參加比賽。

I remember my first major competition was in France.

我記得我的第一場大型比賽是在法國。

It was like an arena for the window cleaning competition.

賽場就像個競技場，就為了擦窗比賽。

I was absolutely bowled over, and then all of a sudden, this person comes up to me; they're carrying the union jack for me.

我完全被征服了，然後有人突然向我走來，拿著聯會的外套給我。

I thought, oh my God, this is like the Olympics.

我想「我的天啊，像奧運會一樣。」

You've got five moves per window and wipe the seal clean and you gotta keep all that together just in those few seconds.

每個窗戶有五個動作，還得擦乾淨封條，這些都得在幾秒鐘內完成。

Terry took home the trophy and the next one and the next one.

Terry 在那次比賽中拔得頭籌，下一次也是，再下次也是。

Well, actually he won the next 15 competitions he entered and he's not giving up any time soon.

實際上，他在接下來的 15 場比賽中都獨占鼇頭，而且他沒打算放手。

What you do is you start from the top here, go down like this and all the time your legs moved over into position.

你得從這開始，像這樣往下，同時你的腿要一直移動到下個位置上。

You've got to be tunnel visioned, which I have been and not swayed one iota.

你必須專心致志，我一直是這樣，從沒動搖過。

I plan to go out of the world as the fastest window cleaner on the planet.

我希望以全球擦窗最快的人走出世界。

So if any aliens are up there, um, that'll be cool.

如果真有外星人的話，那就太酷了。

Please let me dip you in my bucket of love.

請讓我將你浸泡在我愛的水桶之中。

I wonder if you know it's me way up in the sky or the fellas on the...

好奇你是否知道是我在天上，還是一旁的夥計們…
