今天的内容涉及LOST第四季第一集的剧情。尽管不构成真正意义上的剧透，还是先警告一下各位：如果不想知道任何401的情节，请勿阅读此文。

=================================

这集里，Hurley和Bernard之间有这么一段对话：

Hurley: I wanna do a cannonball. I’ve been walking up and down this beach every day and looking out at this water, and I wanna do a cannonball.

Bernard: Hurley, you wanna do a cannonball, cannonball.

接着，Hurley就紧抱双膝跳进了海里。显然，这个动作叫cannonball。我以前只知道它“炮弹”的意思。查了一下Merriam Webster，发现它还有更多的意思。

1 : a usually round solid missile made for firing from a cannon
2 : a jump into water made with the arms holding the knees tight against the chest
3 : a hard flat tennis service
4 : an express train

这个词真是奇怪，四个定义分别涉及炮弹、跳水、网球和火车，彼此完全不沾边。我还真没见过哪个名词属于这种情形的。

另外，Hurley和Jack打篮球的时候，玩的游戏叫H-O-R-S-E。很多人把它简单理解成“先中五球者赢”的投篮比赛，这其实是有些偏差的，因为参加H-O-R-S-E游戏的人并非统一站在某个点上投篮。有兴趣的朋友可以仔细研究研究，我把关键部分摘抄如下：

With 2 players competing, player #1 is allowed to shoot from anywhere on the court and, if he makes the shot, then player #2 must duplicate the same shot from the same position. If player #2 misses, he receives the first “letter” from the word “horse” (in this case - an “H”). However, if player #1 misses his original shot; then player #2 is now free to shoot from anywhere on the court and, hopefully, force player #1 to try and duplicate his made shots. A player is knocked out of the game once he has enough letters to spell out the word “horse.”

=================================

P.S. Heath Ledger的死因报告已经出来，请大家不要再不负责任地随便说他“吸毒致死”。

So why did Heath die? According to Dr. Sophy, he did not die of chronic drug abuse. The fact that it says “acute” means that his death was sudden. He was clearly being treated for something and the way that he used the prescription drugs collided in a tragic result.
