朱莉娅.罗伯茨的“美食祈祷和恋爱”之旅 　　If you or someone you know has ever studied abroad in college, you’ve certainly heard or experienced the trope[修辞,比喻] about “finding yourself” in some far-off, 　　exotic[异国情调的] land. While travel affords the opportunity 　　to learn and explore different cultures in a direct, 　　visceral[内心深处的] way, it can also set up the premise[前提,假定] 　　that one must journey far outside their comfort zone to discover how their life “should be.” 　　In the trailer for Eat Pray Love, based on the 2006 memoir[回忆录] Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia注 by 　　 Elizabeth Gilbert, Julia Roberts plays Gilbert ? a thirty something writer unhappy with her marriage who 　　decides to divorce her husband and spend the next year traveling the world.
