Hobbiton 探索哈比人的故鄉 — 哈比屯


  In the early 2000s, The Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed in New Zealand. Once filming had wrapped, the crew left behind the hobbit holes they had dug to film scenes of the Shire. Afterwards, fans flocked to explore these hobbit burrows, although little more than holes in the ground remained to be seen.
  However, after shooting the newest Hobbit trilogy, the film crew decided to leave the Shire untouched. Thus, a new amazing tourist attraction, the Hobbiton Film Set, was created. Delighted fans worldwide have celebrated the news.
  Visitors now can drop into the Shire, explore Bilbo's home, Bag End, and drink a mug of cider at the Green Dragon Inn. Tourists are encouraged to stroll along the Shire's paths, explore hobbit burrows, and walk through the hobbit gardens. Fans can tour the set and pretend that they are truly walking in Middle Earth. For many, this is a dream come true. Although New Zealand offers many beautiful sites, none have become as instantly popular as Hobbiton.


 

  二十一世紀初期時,《魔戒三部曲》在紐西蘭進行拍攝。電影拍攝一結束,劇組人員便留下他們為了拍攝電影場景夏爾而挖掘的哈比洞。之後,雖然除了洞穴之外,地面上沒有什麼場景被保存下來供參觀,但大批粉絲仍蜂湧而至來探索這些哈比洞。
  然而,在《哈比人》三部曲最新一集拍攝完成後,劇組人員決定保留夏爾原本的完整風貌。因此,一個很棒的新景點 —— 哈比屯拍攝場景誕生了。世界各地的粉絲都在興高采烈地慶祝這個好消息。
  觀光客現在可以順道拜訪夏爾來探索比爾博的家 —— 袋底洞,並在綠龍客棧暢飲一大杯蘋果酒。旅客可以沿著夏爾的小徑漫步、一探哈比人的洞穴和穿梭在哈比人的花園中。粉絲可以遊覽各個場景,假裝他們真實地走在中土世界中。對許多人來說,這讓他們夢想成真。雖然紐西蘭有著許多美麗景點,但沒有一個景點能像哈比屯一樣一夕成名。

『夢想成真』的相關說法

本文中 "For many, this is a dream come true." 中的 a dream come true 表示『夢想成真』。例:

If the boss adopts my proposal, it would be a dream come true.
(如果老闆採用我的提案,夢想就成真了。)

這個片語源自 a dream that has come true,其中的 come true 表『(夢想等)成真,實現』,後來簡化為 a dream come true,作名詞用,現已成為習慣用法。此外,表『使某人的夢想成真、實現某人的夢想』之說法尚有 "realize / fulfill / carry out + 所有格 + dream(s)"。例:

Sue works hard every day and night to realize / fulfill / carry out her dream.
(小蘇每天不分晝夜辛勤工作以實現她的夢想。)
