影片对白
Norrington: Keep your guns on him, men. Gillette, fetch some irons. Well, well... Jack Sparrow, isnt it?
Jack: Captain Jack Sparrow, if you please, sir.
Norrington: Well, I don't see your ship...Captain?
Jack: I'm in the market as it were.
Private1: He said he'd come to commandeer one.
Private2: Told ya he was telling the truth. These are his, sir.
Norrington: No additional shots nor powder. A compass that doesnt point north. And I half expected it to be made of wood. You are, without doubt, the worst pirate I've ever heard of.
Jack: But you have heard of me.
Elizabeth: Commodore, I really must protest.
Norrington: Carefully Lieutenant.
Elizabeth: Pirate or not this man saved my life.
Norrington: One good deed is not enough to redeem a man of a lifetime of wickedness.
Jack: Though it seems enough to condemn him.
Norrington: Indeed.
Jack: Finally.
Gov. Swann: No, no! Don't shoot!
Jack: I knew you'd warm up to me. Commodore Norrington, my effects, please. And my hat. Commodore! Elizabeth, it is Elizabeth, isn't it?
Elizabeth: It's Miss Swann.
Jack: Miss Swann, if you'd be so kind. Come, come, dear, we don't have all day. Now if you'll be very kind. Easy on the goods, darling.
Elizabeth: You're despicable.
Jack: Sticks and stones, love. I saved your life, you saved mine, we're square. Gentlemen, milady. You will always remember this as the day that you almost caught...Capitan Jack Sparrow.
Will: You're the one they're hunting. The pirate.
Jack: You seem somewhat familiar. Have I threatened you before?
Will: I make a point of avoiding familiarity with pirates.
Jack: Ah. Well, then it would be a shame to put a black mark on your record. So, if you'll excuse me. Do you think this wise, boy, crossing blades with a pirate?
Will:You threatened Miss Swann.
Jack: Only a little. You know what you're doing, I'll give you that. Excellent form. But how's your footwork? If I step here...Very good. Now I step again. Ta.
妙语佳句，活学活用
1. In the market
这里 Jack Sparrow 的意思是说他一直想有一条，而且以前他也有一条船。In the market 意为"Wanting to possess, eager to have, seeking"，表示想拥有的东西时，用for 接名词表示，例如：The crowd was in the market for more entertainment.
2. Half expect
Half expect 基本上是表示一种否定，和说话人所设想的情况的否定，例如：And I half expected it to be made of wood. 我还以为它是木头的呢。
3. Warm up to
Warm up 通常指在体育运动前的热身，但在这里的意思为"Become friendlier or more receptive toward"，例如：I had a hard time warming up to my mother-in-law.
4. Sticks and stones.
我不认为你的话会伤了我。
这是一句很长的英文句子的开头，原话是这样的：Stick and stone may break my bones, but names will never hurt me. 意思是：石头和棍子能打断我的骨头，可是你的话一点也伤不到我。注意这里这个names的意思可不是名字。我们知道英语中骂人是call names，这句话中的names就是取“骂人的恶语”的意思。
5. Make a point of
意为"Treat something as important or essential"，例如：She made a point of thanking everyone in the department for their efforts.
6. Ta
语气词，主要用在英国英语中，表示"thanks"。

The history of piracy 海盗们的“光荣”历史
The flag of 18th-century pirate Calico Jack
Because it is often the result of failure or laxity in patrolling sea routes, piracy flourished in times of unrest, or when navies ordinarily protecting commerce were engaged in war. Pirates found their most suitable base of operations in an archipelago that offered shelter together with proximity to trade routes. Pirates preyed upon Phoenician and Greek commerce and were so active in the 1st cent. B.C. that Rome itself was almost starved by their interception of the grain convoys.Pompey swept piracy from the Mediterranean, but with the decline of the Roman Empire it revived there and was prevalent until modern times. Muslim pirates infested the W Mediterranean; the Venetians, who ostensibly policed the E Mediterranean, preyed upon the maritime trade of rival cities; and the Barbary States got much of their revenue from piracy. In the North, the Vikings harassed the commerce of the Baltic Sea and the English Channel. Emerging in the 13th cent., the Hanseatic League succeeded in curbing the piracy of its era.
New trade routes opened during the Renaissance, e.g., the shipment of precious metals from the Spanish colonies, the rich trade with the East, and the development of the slave trade, that made piracy especially lucrative. At this period no great stigma was attached to piracy because maritime law had not been systematized. This fact, together with the increasing colonial rivalry of the powers, led states to countenance those pirates who promoted the national cause by attacking the commerce of rival nations. With the tacit approval of the provincial authorities, the West Indies became a pirates' rendezvous, and the English buccaneers of the Spanish Main in the 17th and 18th cent., who despoiled the Spanish treasure armadas and pillaged Spanish-American coast settlements, returned to England to divide their spoils with the crown and to receive the royal pardon.
The development of national navies caused the decline of piracy. Beginning in 1803, the United States endeavored to crush the corsairs of Tripoli. In 1815 and 1816 the United States, the Netherlands, and Great Britain wiped out the Barbary pirates, who had exacted tribute under the threat of capturing ships and imprisoning their crews. In 1816, Great Britain and the United States began operations against pirates in the West Indies, particularly those on the Cuban coast, and in 1824 the United States sent David Porter to complete the task. The power of the pirates along the Straits of Malacca and the China seas was broken after the Opium Wars in the late 19th cent. During the Spanish Civil War the major powers agreed at the Nyon Conference on an antipiracy pact after mysterious attacks on merchant ships in the Mediterranean. Small-scale piracy persists in some waters, particularly in Indonesia and SE and S Asia, in the Red Sea and off the Horn of Africa, off the Gulf of Guinea coast, and off Ecuador.
