JOANA: All you have to do is submit a painting to the Brazilian Pavilion by December 1. You'll love Brazil. I'll show you all the sights. We'll have a wonderful time.你所要干的就是在12月1日以前必须交巴西馆一幅画。你会爱上巴西的。我可以领你看巴西所有的风景名胜。我们将有一段美好的时光。

JOANA: Michael, no one else has a chance!米其尔，没人能有这个机会！
MICHAEL: Oh, come on.噢，得啦。
JOANA: No, really. Name one modern artist whose pain tings are better than yours? Name one artist whose paintings the judges could possibly like more than yours. 不，真的，尽管现代画家的作品比你的要好。但裁判们也许更喜欢你的画。
MICHAEL: It's nice to have someone who believes in you. Too bad you're not one of the judges.有人信任你这的确很好。糟糕的是你并不是这次比赛的裁判。
