level 1
While visiting the Earth at Night, a group of alien botanists is discovered and disturbed by an approaching human task force. Because of the more than hasty take-off, one of the visitors is left behind. The little alien finds himself all alone on a very strange planet. Fortunately, the extra-terrestrial soon finds a friend and emotional companion in 10-year-old Elliot, who discovered him looking for food in his family's garden shed. While E.T. slowly gets acquainted with Elliot's brother Michael, his sister Gertie as well as with Earth customs, members of the task force work day and night to track down the whereabouts of Earth's first visitor from Outer Space. The wish to go home again is strong in E.T., and after being able to communicate with Elliot and the others, E.T. starts building an improvised device to send a message home for his folks to come and pick him up. But before long, E.T. gets seriously sick, and because of his special connection to Elliot, the young boy suffers, too. The situation gets critical when the task force finally intervenes. By then, all help may already be too late, and there's no alien spaceship in sight.

E.T.: E.T. phone home.
Michael: Maybe he's not that smart. Maybe he's like a worker bee who only knows how to push buttons or something.
Michael: Okay, I just hope we don't wake up on Mars or something surrounded by millions of little squashy guys.
Elliott: I'm keeping him.
Elliot: Yeah, he came back, but he's not a goblin. He's a spaceman.
Elliot: You could be happy here, I could take care of you. I wouldn't let anybody hurt you. We could grow up together, E.T.
Keys: Elliot, he came to me too. I've been wishing for this since I was 10 years old, I don't want him to die. What can we do that we're not already doing?
Elliot: He needs to go home; he's calling his people. And I don't know where they are, but he needs to go home.
Keys: Elliot, I don't think he was left here intentionally, but his being here is a miracle, Elliot. It's a miracle and you did the best that anybody could do. I'm glad he met you first.
Michael: [imitating Elliot] I found him, he belongs to me!
Elliot: You must be dead, because I don't know how to feel. I can't feel anything anymore.
Michael: [as Yoda] You have absolute power! Yes!
Michael: We're all going to die and they're never going to give me my license!

@huhonglei1981 “他们永远都不会把许可证给我”,我感觉这个翻译得不太准确,貌似和许可证没啥关系吧?

@huhonglei1981 license确实有许可证的意思,但在这个句子结合上下来看,貌似和许可证没有关系,可以考虑意译,不过上下文参考有限,我也不确定该怎么翻,所以我说的是“貌似”“我觉得”,并没说你翻得肯定不对。
