Forrest Gump: A Journey of Growth and Life Philosophy from Childhood to Adulthood

Learning English requires not only mastering grammar and vocabulary but, more importantly, being able to use it naturally in real situations. However, textbook sentences are often too formal and differ greatly from everyday expressions. To speak authentic and natural English, one must engage with dialogues in real contexts. Here, we have selected commonly used daily English expressions, covering social, work, travel, and other scenarios, helping you move beyond 'textbook English' and learn what native speakers really use. Below is the content of this episode, Episode 47 of Forrest Gump. Consistent accumulation will make your English closer to real life!

Hello. My name's Forge. Forge is gone. Do you want a chocolate? I could eat about a million and a half of these. My mom always said life was like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're going to get. Now when I was a baby, Mama named me after the great Civil War hero General Nathan Bedford Ford. She said we was related to him in some way. And what he did was he started up in his club called the Ku Klux Klan. They'd all dress up in the roads and they'd bedsheets and act like a bunch of ghosts or spooks or something. That even put bedsheets on their horses right around. And anyway, the tower got on that horse gun. See, do you hear what I said for it? You're the same as everybody else. You are no different. Your boys different. Men's gone. Here's IQ 75. We're all different. There's the handcuffs. She wanted me to have the finest education. So she took me to the Greenbow County Central School.

I met the principal and all. I want to show you something, men's gone. Now this is normal. The first is right here. The state requires a minimum IQ 80 to a 10 public school men's gone. He's going to have to go to special school. I hit beat just fine. What does normal mean anyway? He might be a bit on the slow side. But my boy, Ford, is going to get the same opportunities as everyone else. He's not going to some special school to learn how to retread pies. We're talking about five little poems here. They must be something can be done. I remember the bus ride on the first day of school. Very well. Are you going along? Mom has been taking rides from strangers. This is a bus for school. I'm Ford's Ford Scott. And Dorothy Harris. When I would get strangers anymore. I can't fit here. You know it's funny, but a young man ret collects. Because I don't remember being born. I don't recall what I got from my first Christmas. I don't know when I went on my first outdoor picnic. But I do remember the first time I heard the sweetest voice in the wild world. I have never seen anything so beautiful in my life. She was like an angel. I'm nothing at all. Thank you. My legs are just fine and dandy. I just sat next to her on that bus and had a conversation all the latest good.

My back's crooked like a question mark. These are the main yesterdays and tomorrows. No one ever talked to me or asked me questions. These two better something. I'm supposed to be as this. If it does. I'm kidding. I'm Ford's Ford Scott. From that day on we was always together. Jitty me was like peas and carrots. Hey dummy! Are you part of the dress flight, Duke? No. I'm Ford's Duke. Just on the way, Ford. Run, Ford! Run away, hurry! Get the bike! Hurry up, let's do it. We got you. Here we go. Run, Ford, run! Run, Ford! Go back here, Duke. Now you wouldn't believe it if I told you. That I could run like the wind loves. That day on, I was going somewhere. I was running. What's the matter, Mom? I'm dying, boy. Come on in and sit down over here. Why are you dying, Mom? It's my time. It's just my time. Oh, now. Don't you be afraid, sweetheart. This is just a part of life. Somewhere old, this and the Duke. I didn't know it. But I was this and the deal, Mama. Run to the best I could. You did good, Mom. Boy, I happen to believe you make your own destiny.

You have to do the best with what God gave you. What's my destiny, Mom? You're going to have to figure that out for yourself. You're not going to block the chocolate, Ford. You never know what you're going to get. I've always had a way to explain the things so I can understand them. I will, you Ford. She had got the cancer and died on a Tuesday. I bought her a new hat with little flowers on it. Now, because I'd been a football star and a war hero and national celebrity and a Trumpin' boat captain, college graduate, the city falls in Greenbow, Alabama, and decided to get together and offered me a fine job. So I never went back to work for the tennis dianne. So he did take care of my brother got money. He got me invested in some kind of group company. So then I got a call from him saying we don't have to worry about money no more. And I said, that's good. One of those things. Now, Mama said he's only so much fortune a man really needs. And the rest is just for showing up. So I gave a whole bunch of this to the Ford Square golfers of the show. And I gave a whole bunch to buy the battery fishing hospital. And even though Bubba was dead and Lieutenant Dianne said I was nuts, I gave Bubba's mama Bubba's share.

You know what? She didn't have to work, you know, but it's kitchen, you know, mold. And because I was a gov'rillionaire and I like doing it so much, I cut that grass for free. But at night time, when there was nothing to do and the house was all empty, I had always think a journey. Hey! How you doing? Come in, come in. I got the aleta. Oh, I'm wondering about that. Is it your house? Yeah, it's messy right now. Nice. You got air conditioning. Oh. Thank you. I saw... Hey, I just... I picked scrapbook of your cooking thing. Everything that you are. And I guess you're running. I ran a long way for a long time. Right here. Listen, Forrest, I don't know how to say this. I just... I want to apologize for anything that I ever did to you because I was messed up for a long time. You... Hey! Hi! Hey! This is my old friend from Alabama. How'd you do? Listen, next week my schedule changes, so I'll be able to thank you. No problem. I've got to go, Chan. I'm double-pired.

Okay. Bye. Thanks. This is my very good friend, Mr. Gump. Can you stay high, Tom? Hello, Mr. Gump. Hello. Can I go watch TV now? Yes, just keep it up. You are a mom, aren't you? I don't know, mama. His name's Forrest. Like me. I named him after his daddy. He got a daddy named Forrest, too? You're a daddy forrest. Forrest? I'm sick. What do you have a cough due to cold? I have some kind of a virus, and the doctors don't... I don't know what it is, and there's nothing they can do about it. If you come home with me, you and your little Forrest can come stay with my house in Greenbow. I'll take care of you if you sit. Would you marry me forrest? Okay. I love you. You died on a Saturday morning. I had you placed here under a tree. And I had that house, so you followed it, bulldoves to the ground. Mama always said, dying for the part of life. I sure wish it was. And I live forrest. You do it just fine. About to start school again soon. I make kids breakfast much dinner every day. I make sure he comes his hair, brushes his teeth every day. Teaching him how to play ping pong. He's really good. Forrest, you go. We fish a lot. And every night we read a book, and she's so smart, Jenny. You'd be so proud of him. Right out. Here, wrote you a letter. He said, I can't read it. I'm supposed to. So I just leave it here for you. Do you want to hear it? I don't know. Mama with a ride at home. She's a lieutenant. I don't know if we each have a destiny. Or if we're all just floating around accidentally on a breeze. But I think maybe it's both. Maybe both happen and get the same time. I want to see you, Jenny. If there's anything you need, I won't be far away.
