37、岁。面试官：面试官：你是在香港从事电影行业？李小龙李小龙：没错，从6岁左右就开始了。面试官：面试官：什么时候离开香港的呢？李小龙李小龙：1959年我18岁时。面试官：面试官：好的。接下来谈话时请看向我。我知道你刚刚喜得贵子？李小龙李小龙：是的。面试官：面试官：你一定为此失眠了吧？李小龙李小龙：嗯，失眠了三个晚上。面试官：面试官：跟大家说说在香港你们都是几点拍电影？李小龙李小龙：基本都是在凌晨。你知道香港有300万人口，所以会有些喧闹，每次需要拍电影基本都是在半夜12点至凌晨5点拍摄的。面试官：面试官：明白了，你喜欢这样不是么？李小龙李小龙：（微笑）面试官：面试官：另外你有在美国上大学？李小龙李
38、小龙：是的。面试官：面试官：学的什么？李小龙李小龙：哲学。面试官：面试官：好的。今天早些时候，你跟我说空手道和柔术不是东方武打中最强大的，那么什么才是最强大的或者说最好的呢？李小龙李小龙：呵呵，说“最好”好像不太好，但是在我看来，功夫非常棒。面试官：面试官：那你能不能跟我们说说功夫？李小龙李小龙：没问题。功夫起源于中国，是空手道和柔术的祖先。功夫有更为完整的体系，动作更加流畅。我是指功夫的动作间有连贯性，就像是在流动；而不是一个动作、又一个动作、然后停下。面试官：面试官：你能看着镜头，给我们解释一下将一杯水原理运用到功夫上的含义吗？李小龙李小龙：好的。说起功夫，最好的比喻就是一杯水。为什么呢？
39、因为水是世界上最柔软的物质，但是它却可以穿透最坚硬的岩石，或者说花岗岩等石材。水也是没有实体的，这样说是指你无法抓住水，你无法击打它、伤害它。所以说每一个练功夫的人都想努力做到这一点，像水一样柔软、灵活，能改变自己来适应对手。面试官：面试官：我懂了。那么功夫的击打动作和空手道的击打动作有什么区别呢？李小龙李小龙：空手道击打就像一块铁条，打出去是whack的一声；功夫击打则像拴着铁球的铁链，Whang的一声就伤到对手体内了。面试官：面试官：好的，我们马上会进行剪切，一会儿想请你起立为展示功夫和一些功夫动作。Task 4:Dubbing PracticeDirections:Turn down t
