Forrest: Anyway. I guess you could say me and mama was on our own, but we didn't mind. Our house was never empty. There was always folks2 coming and going. Sometimes we had so many people staying with us that every room was filled with travelers. You know, folks livin' out of their suit cases and hat cases , and sample cases. One time a young man was staying with us and he had him a guitar case.
Mrs.Gump: Forrest, I told you not to bother this nice young man.
Elvis Presley: No, that's all right ma'am . I was just showing him a thing or two on the guitar here.
Mrs.Gump: Alright. Supper's ready if y'all want to eat.
Elvis: Yeah, that sounds good. Thank you,ma'am. Say, man, show me that crazy little walk you just did there. Slow it down some. You ain't nothin' but a hound dog...
Forrest: I liked that guitar. It sounded good. I started moving around to the music, swingin' my hips4. This night, me and mama was out shoppin' and we walked right by Pitsey's Furnature and Appliance5 store, Guess what...
Mrs.Gump: This is not for children's eyes.
Forrest: Some years later, that handsome young man who they called The King, well he sung too many songs. He had himself a heart attack or something. Must be hard being the king...

3.ma'am: 它是对女性的尊称,对任何年龄是不是结婚一般都可以如此称呼。省去了大伙分辨用miss还是mrs的时间。在传统国家只有有肯定地位的女性才配有如此的称呼。美国人非常爱用,但这种叫不太正式
4.ain't 是 am not, is not, are not, have not, or has not 的缩读形式,是不正式的语言,只在口语中出现,对出目前文化水平较低的人群中,不少人对此词较为反感。建议大伙了解意思就好,防止用。
5.This is not for children's eyes.:这就是大家常说的儿童不宜。使用方法非常生活化,大家可以把它活用在其他地方,假如你看到一位男性拿着《妇女之友》看的津津有味,你就能说this is not for men's eyes.假如你在讲话不想让旁边的孩子听到你就能说this is not for children's ears.
