第94届奥斯卡颁奖典礼出现了非常有戏剧性的一幕，由于颁奖人克里斯·洛克开了威尔·史密斯老婆的玩笑，嘲笑威尔史密斯的老婆，说她现在是光头，可以演《魔鬼女大兵》。本来还笑脸迎人的威尔·史密斯，直接上台打了克里斯·洛克一拳。
Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behavior at last night’s Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable. Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada’s medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally.
暴力，在任何形式下都有着极其恶劣的有害影响。昨晚我在奥斯卡颁奖典礼上的行为是不可接受、不可原谅的。被拿来开玩笑是我在这份工作中经历的常规操作，但涉及Jada健康状况的玩笑令我无法忍受，以至于我情绪失控、反应过激。

the poisonous atmosphere in the office 办公室里的恶劣气氛

At one’s expense当然还可以表示：paid for by sb 由某人付钱；由某人负担费用
I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.
Chris，我想藉此公开向你道歉。我的行为越界了，我错了。对此我深感羞愧，这并不该是我日常为人的表现。在这充满爱和善意的世界里，没有暴力的容身之地。
Be out of line越界
也可以是cross the line/step over the line：PHRASE If you say that someone has crossed the line or has stepped over the line, you mean that they have behaved in a way that is considered unacceptable. 举止不当
Sometimes, I think the administration steps over the line when they make these kinds of accusations. 有时候，我认为行政部门在发出这类指责时，他们已经出格了。
Be not indicative of the man I want to be 表达的其实是“我虽然做出了这种行为，但这并不代表我就是这样的人”，或者“我的为人不是这样”。
Indicative:[ not usually before noun ] ~ (of sth) ( formal ) showing or suggesting sth 表明；标示；显示；暗示
Their failure to act is indicative of their lack of interest.他们未采取行动，这表示他们没有兴趣。
There is no place for... 没有....的容身之地
I would also like to apologize to the Academy, the producers of the show, all the attendees and everyone watching around the world. I would like to apologize to the Williams Family and my King Richard Family. I deeply regret that my behavior has stained what has been an otherwise gorgeous journey for all of us. I am a work in progress.
我也要向学院（奖）、节目制作人、所有来宾和全世界的所有观众道歉。我还要向威廉姆斯家族和《国王理查德》大家庭道歉。我的行为让大家本该美好的经历染上污点，我对此深表遗憾。我还在不断地自我修炼中。
watching around the world：后置定语修饰everyone，全世界所有的观众
Stain污渍，这里是动词：[ VN ] ( formal ) to damage the opinion that people have of sth 玷污，败坏（名声）
The events had stained the city's reputation unfairly. 这些事件使该市背上了不应有的恶名。
otherwise这里表示in other respects，也就是，除了这一巴掌之外，这次颁奖典礼在其他方面应该算得上是gorgeous，即“本该gorgeous”。
what has been an otherwise gorgeous journey for all of us——what引导的宾语从句，充当这句话的宾语。
