就让我们接着开始吧。
Scene: Monica's Apartment, everyone is there and watching a Spanish Soap on TV and are trying to figure out what is going on.]
Monica:Now I'm guessing that he bought her the big pipe organ, and she's really not happy about it.
译文:我猜他送她一台管风琴,她肯定不喜欢,
解析和应用:organ是一个多义词,我们常用的还有器官的意思。
Chandler: (imitating the characters) Tuna or egg salad? Decide!
译文:金枪鱼还是鸡蛋沙拉?快决定!
解析和应用:这里是Chandler模仿剧中的人物,自己加的台词。因为Monica是个chef,所以后边会学到很多关于吃的的单词。Tuna,金枪鱼,点餐的时候可以用到。
Ross: (in a deep voice) I'll have whatever Christine is having.
译文:我要点和克莉丝汀一样的。
解析和应用:这里是Ross继续配音,虽然他今天心情特别不好,还是在配合小伙伴们搞笑。这句话在生活中很常用,和同事出去吃饭的时候就可以说,我要点一份一样的。
Rachel:(on phone) Daddy, I just... I can't marry him! I'm sorry. I just don't love him. Well, it matters to me!
译文:爸,我不能嫁给他…对不起,我只是不爱他。但是,这和我相关。
解析和应用:这里目测Rachel的father最后一句话应该是,It doesn’t matter to me,所以Rachel反驳道 it matters to me!
(The scene on TV has changed to show two women, one is holding her hair.)
Phoebe:If I let go of my hair, my head will fall off.
译文:如果我没有了头发,我的头也会掉下来的。
解析和应用:他们在继续配音。这里我们可以学到一个短语let go of,是放手,放下的意思,如表达不要再想昨天了,展望未来吧– Let go of yesterday, just fixate on tomorrow.
Chandler:(TV) Ooh, she should not be wearing those pants.
译文:她不该穿那条裤子。
Joey:I say push her down the stairs.
译文:我建议推她下楼。
解析和应用:这里可以注意say的用法,表达自己观点的时候就可以这样说。另外就是推下楼的说法,电影里常见的桥段你可以试着用英语表达:He pushed his wife down the stairs.
Phoebe, Ross,Chandler, and Joey:Push her down the stairs! Push her down the stairs! Push her downthe stairs!
(She ispushed down the stairs and everyone cheers.)
Rachel:C'mon Daddy, listen to me! It's like, it's like, all of my life, everyone has always told me, 'You're a shoe! You're a shoe, you're a shoe, you're a shoe!'. And today I just stopped and I said, 'What if I don't wanna be a shoe? What if I wanna be a- a purse, y'know? Or a- or a hat! No, I'm not saying I want you to buy me a hat, I'm saying I am a ha- It's ametaphor, Daddy!
译文:爸,你听我说……我这一生中,大家都告诉我:你是一只鞋……今天我突然想看看如果我不再是鞋会怎样。如果我想当一个钱包呢?或是帽子呢?不,我不需你帮我买帽子。我说我是一顶帽子。爸,这是一种比喻!
解析和应用:表达从小到大爸妈都教育我好好学习可以说:All of my life, my parents have always told me, 'You must study hard! '比喻的说法–metaphor.
Ross:You can see where he'd have trouble.
译文:你看他也有些问题。
Rachel:Look Daddy,it's my life. Well maybe I'll just stay here with Monica.
译文:爸,这是我的人生。或许我会和莫妮卡住在这儿。
Monica:Well, I guess we've established who's staying here with Monica...
译文:我想我们已确定好谁要和莫妮卡住在这儿
解析和应用:establish的用法,可以用来表达确定的意思,也有建立的意思,如 I’ve established a great relationship with him.
Rachel:Well, maybethat's my decision. Well, maybe I don't need your money. Wait!! Wait, I saidmaybe!!
译文:或许那是我的决定。或许我不需要你的钱。等一下,等一下……我说的是或许!!
[Time Lapse,Rachel is breathing into a paper bag.]
Monica: Just breathe, breathe, that's it. Just try to think of nice calm things...
译文:深呼吸,就这样。试着去想宁静美好的事物……
解析和应用:calm我们常用来形容人冷静,平静。也可以用来形容事物,如The lake is calm, the water is not moving.
Phoebe:(sings) Raindrops on roses and rabbits and kittens, (Rachel and Monica turn to look at her.) bluebells and sleighbells and- something with mittens... La la lala...something and noodles with string. These are a few...
译文:玫瑰花上的雨滴,小兔子和猫咪,风信子和着雪橇铃声,一些关于手套,面条和绳子的事情。
解析和应用:kitten可以想到kitty,都有小猫的意思,可以对比记忆。Sleigh,雪橇的意思,不要觉得单词生僻就不记,好的词汇量都是这样练成的。这个单词可以按发音形象地记成,拉雪橇,死累(s + leigh)
Rachel:I'm all better now.
译文:我现在好多了。
解析和应用:这里Rachel没有用much better用了all better,用来强调好很多了,意在让Phoebe不要再唱了。
Phoebe:(grins and walks to the kitchen and says to Chandler and Joey.) I helped!
译文:我帮上忙啦。Grin这个词让我想起了疯狂动物城结局的时候,树懒从车里探出头来的咧嘴一笑。学英语就是这样,要时刻联系到可以用得上的语境。
Monica:Okay, look,this is probably for the best, y'know?Independence. Takingcontrol of your life. The whole, 'hat' thing.
译文:或许这样最好,自立,掌控自己的人生。做一个”帽子”。
解析和应用:for the best,是最好的(安排)。工作的时候发现一个方法很好用,就可以说:It turned out to be for the best.
Joey:(comforting her) And hey, you need anything, you can always come to Joey. Me andChandlerlive across thehall. And he's away a lot.
译文:有任何需要找乔伊准没错。我和钱德勒就住在对面,而且他经常不在家。
解析和应用:表达一个人经常不在家,就可以说,he’s away a lot.
Monica:Joey, stop hitting on her! It's her wedding day!
译文:Joey,不要撩她了,今天是她结婚的日子。
解析和应用:如果你男朋友发现有人在撩你,他可能就会说:You can not hit on her any more.
Joey:What, like there's a rule or something?
译文:什么?有规定不能吗?
解析和应用:当你反驳别人禁止你做某事的时候就可以说,Is there arule or something?
(The door buzzer sounds and Chandler gets it.)
Chandler:Please don't do that again, it's a horrible sound.
译文:别再这样,声音很刺耳。
解析和应用:Chandler在剧中好几次提到了刺耳的铃声,有一次是在办公室他的助理给他打电话,后边给介绍到。
Paul:It's, uh, it's Paul.
Monica:Oh God, is it 6:30?Buzz him in!
译文:我是保罗。
天啊,6:30了吗?让他进来!
解析和应用:Buzz him in,有人按门铃的时候你就可以这样表达。
Joey:Who's Paul?
Ross:Paul theWine Guy, Paul?
Monica:Maybe.
Joey:Wait. Your'not a real date' tonight is with Paul the Wine Guy?
译文:保罗是谁?调酒的那个保罗?或许吧。等等,你今晚所谓的不是真的约会是和调酒的那个保罗?
Ross:He finally asked you out?
Monica: Yes!
Chandler:Ooh, this isa Dear Diary moment.
译文:他终于开口约你了?对。终于被你等到了。
真是个可以载入日记的时刻。
解析和应用:老外写日记的第一句经常会是,dear diary. 所以这里Chandler很幽默地表达这是Monica非常激动的时刻。我们平时也可以用,比如说获奖了,就可以说,That is really a dear diary moment.
Monica: Rachel, wait,I can cancel...
Rachel:Please, no,go, that'd be fine!
Monica:(to Ross)Are, are you okay? I mean, do you want me to stay?
Ross:(choked voice) That'd be good...
Monica:(horrified)Really?
Ross:(normalvoice) No, go on! It's Paul the Wine Guy!
译文:瑞秋,等等,我可以取消。
不用了,你去吧,我不会有事的。
罗斯,你没事吧。你要我留下来吗?
那样最好……
真的吗?
- 假的,去吧!是保罗,调酒师耶!
Phoebe:What does that mean? Does he sell it, drink it, or just complain a lot? (Chandler doesn't know.)
译文:什么意思?他是卖酒的,喝酒的,还是经常抱怨?
(There's a knock on the door and it's Paul.)
Monica: Hi, come in! Paul, this is.. (They are all lined up next to the door.)... everybody, everybody, this is Paul.
译文:请进! 保罗,这位是…………各位,各位,他就是保罗
解析和应用:介绍Rachel的时候用的一样的台词。
All:Hey! Paul!Hi! The Wine Guy! Hey!
Chandler:I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name. Paul, was it?
Monica:Okay,umm-umm, I'll just--I'll be right back, I just gotta go ah, go ah...
Ross:Awandering?
译文:保罗……调酒大师。
抱歉,我没听清楚你名字。保罗,是吗?
我马上就好,我去,去……
神魂恍惚啦?
解析和应用:没有听清楚别人说的话,就可以说I didn’t catch what you just said.
Monica:Change! Okay, sit down. (Shows Paul in) Two seconds.
译文:换衣服!请坐,两秒钟。
解析和应用:用second表示马上,如果说你想请教一个同事问题就可以说:Do you have asecond, I wanna ask you a question.
Phoebe:Ooh, I just pulled out four eyelashes. That can't be good.
译文:我刚拔掉四根睫毛,情况不太好。
