        【选段台词】
        J.Daniel Atlas: Come in close. Closer. Because the more you think you see, the easier it'll be to fool you. Because what is seeing? You're looking, but what you're really doing is filtering, interpreting, searching for meaning. My job? To take that most precious of gifts you give me, your attention, and use it against you.
        J.Daniel Atlas: I'm going to flip through this deck. And I want you to see one card. Not this one. That's too obvious. Pay close attention. That was too fast. I'll do it again. Are you ready? Okay. Now did you see one?
        A women: Yes.
        J.Daniel Atlas: Do you have one in mind?
        A women: Yes.
        J.Daniel Atlas: Now, do you see your card here?
        A women: No.
        J.Daniel Atlas: That's because you're looking too closely. And what have I been telling you all night? The closer you look...
        All: The less you see.
        Merritt Osbourne: Now look into my eyes. And sleep. Okay. And... If you can get this bill from me, you can have it. Go ahead. Take it. Get it. If you can say your name, you can have it. All right, just hang out there, wriggle a sec. I'm gonna take a little peek under the hood - of your hubby's brain.

        【重点词汇】
        1. The more…the more
        影片开场是Daniel 的一段独白，在独白中他描述了自己的魔术工作，提到了魔术的神奇以及其具有的欺骗性质。the+比较级...the +比较级...意为“越……，越……”，表示一方的程度变化随着另一方的变化而变化，其中两个the都是副词，而不是冠词，前句是从句，后句是主句。
        2. search for
        在Daniel描述自己的工作时，也提到了观众的心理，对信息的过滤、解释及寻找它的意思。Search for 是固定搭配，表示目的，翻译为“搜寻、探索”
        3. flip through
        接着到了影片的下一幕，Daniel在众人面前表演，在表演开始前，他说自己要先快速翻动这叠牌。Flip through是固定搭配，本意为“阅览，草草翻动”，常常与书籍之类的纸质材料相搭配，在这里，与扑克牌相搭配，译为“快速翻动”。
        4. look into
        接着惊天魔盗团的另一成员Merritt出场了，他在一对夫妇面前表演。他让那名妻子看着他的眼睛。Look into意思很多，包括：调查，观察，窥探等，在此处，用在口语中，只是“看着”的意思。
        5. take a peek
        Merritt为那名妻子表演完，视线转移到了她的丈夫身上。此刻，他想要利用丈夫的弱点骗点钱，于是，他说：“我要窥探一下你丈夫脑子里在想什么”。Take a peek意思是“窥视，偷看”，这里指窥探她丈夫脑子里在想什么。
