This really gorgeous Lamauge gravy boat. When all of a sudden- (to the waitress that brought her coffee)Sweet n Lo?- I realized tha
21、t I was more turned on by this gravy boat than by Barry! And then I got really freaked out, and thats when it hit me: how much Barry looks like Mr. Potato Head.

30、ure a shoe!. And today I just stopped and I said, What if I dont wanna be a shoe? What if I wanna be a- a purse, yknow? Or a- or a hat! No, Im not saying I want you to buy me a hat, Im saying I am a ha- Its a metaphor, Daddy!metaphor n.比喻/Im not saying I want you to buy me a hat, its a metaphor: ana
31、logyshoe 就是鞋子的意思。下文 “its a metaphor“，是个比喻！Rachel 喜欢购物嘛，所以把服饰比喻成人的理想，别人告诉 rachel 要成为一只鞋，rachel 自己想做个“purse“ 以鞋喻人生,职业、前途或者某一类人。老爸老妈希望 Rachel 成为某一种人，Rachel 自己却另有想法。只不过 Rachel 想不到用什么比喻，所以用自己最喜欢的服饰作比喻。Rachel 喜欢逛街购物嘛.Shoe 和 Purse 都是 ladies 的最爱。shoe 是指要成双配对的生活，因为 shoes 是 2 只一起的，一只 shoe 永远需要另外一只。purse 就是独立的
32、，自己可以生存的， 不需要配对的。Ross: You can see where hed have trouble.You can see where hed have trouble:Apparently, we can tell that Rachs dad made fun of Rachs metaphor by saying “buy her a hat“, and pretended that he didnt know what Rach was talking about. But whats even worse is that Rach didnt get her dads
33、 little trick either.So she yelled at the phone that “Its a metaphor,Daddy!“. Once she realized how rude and unladily she was just now, her eyes met with Rosss, which made Ross rather embarrassing. So he ended up saying that “You can see where hed have trouble.“ That means “you can see misunderstand
34、ing your metaphor is where hed have trouble to communicate with you smoothly. /Are you in trouble 又有很棒的sex，又有 feelings，必然心情异常激动，所以 rach 说：你还能挺住吗？Rachel: Look Daddy, its my life. Well maybe Ill just stay here with Monica. Monica: Well, I guess weve established whos staying here with Monica.Well, I gu
35、ess weve established whos staying here with Monica：Monica has no idea why Rachel said that. But she cant just abandon Rach at this critical time, so when her friends turned to her for a verification, she cant think of nothing to say except that: “Well, it seems to Rachel that I have already agreed o
36、n the whole moving in thing( that is established an agreement on her moving in), although I have nothing to do with it!(Dont look at me in this weird way, guys!)“Rachel: Well, maybe thats my decision. Well, maybe I dont need your money. Wait! Wait, I said maybe!Rachel 逃婚之后就不得不面对后果了她的老爸很生气，在电话里威胁说要经济
37、制裁她，Rachel一时嘴硬说：“Well, maybe I dont need your money.“ 等她老爸真的把电话挂了之后，她又忙不迭地对着电话叫道：“Wait! Wait, I said maybe!“事已至此她只能借住在 Monica 的家里了。 Time Lapse, Rachel is breathing into a paper bag.Monica: Just breathe, breathe. thats it. Just try to think of nice calm things. Phoebe: (sings) Raindrops on roses and
38、rabbits and kittens 小猫, (Rachel and Monica turn to look at her.) bluebells 野风信子 and sleighbells 雪橇 and- something with mittens 棒球 or 拳击手套. La la la la.something and noodles with string. These are a few.Rachel: Im all better now.Phoebe: (grins and walks to the kitchen and says to Chandler and Joey.)
39、I helped!grin n.露齿笑, 裂口笑 v.露齿而笑Monica: Okay, look, this is probably for the best, yknow? Independence. Taking control of your life. The whole, hat thing.在这些事发生之前，Rachel 可是一直靠在她那有钱的老爸身上的，所以 Monica 才说：”哎，这可能是件好事呢，你想啊，这样你就能独立生活了。” be for the best 是一个极其口语化的表达法，表示某件事情可能并不像看上去那么糟，也颇有点良药虽苦，其利于病的意思，比如：I kno
40、w its hard for you to leave him, but its for the best.Joey: (comforting her) And hey, you need anything, you can always come to Joey. Me and Chandler live across the hall. And hes away a lot.接着号称情圣的 Joey 也跑来向 Rachel 表示：“嗨，如果你需要什么尽管来找我好了。“ 实际上Joey 和另一个“老友“ Chandler 就住在 Monica 的对门：Me and Chandler live
41、 right across the hall. 按语法讲，Joey 应该说 Chandler and I但在口语中用 me 也是可以接受的，而且Joey 为了突出自己而把 Me 放到了 Chandler 前面，然后还很暧昧地加了一句“他经常不在家 (And hes away lot)“。Monica: Joey, stop hitting on her! Its her wedding day!Monica 很了解 Joey, 教训他说：“你别挑逗她了 (stop hitting on her)，今天可是她的结婚之日。“ 而这里的 hit on someone 的意思是“和某人调情，或挑逗某人
42、“, 相当于 flirt with someone,作个小小的总结：hit on someone/flirt with someone/ to make a pass at someone/ to come on to someone 例如： “Did you see the way Brian came on to Sally at the office party?“/“Oh, Brian has made a pass at every girl in the office.“/“I know, but he hit on Sally particularly hard.“ /Joey,
43、 stop hitting on her! : Slang, to pay unsolicited(adj.主动提供的 ) and usually unwanted(adj.不必要的) sexual attention to注意：Hit on sb. /come on to sb./pass at sb./crash on sb: 指的是对某人有意思，有好感（情感上或“生理”上），不一定（只是不一定要付诸行动），即“被某人所吸引”；flirt with sb 包括付诸行动，比如我们常说的“上前搭讪，引人注意，挑逗，调情”。当然具体到实际生活中两种情况有可能交叉，比如上文中翻译的“你别挑逗她了
44、”就包含了这两种意思，非常准确。 Joey: What, like theres a rule or something?到底是情圣啊! 最后 Joey 脸不红心不跳地回了一句：“怎么啦？难道还有什么明文规定不成？（What, like theres a rule or something?）。似乎该理解为难道有什么规定（在这种情况下禁止我追求她）么？注意：“迷恋上，爱上”的几种说法： have the hots for someone/be stuck on someone/have ones cap set for someone/fall for (The door buzzer sou
45、nds and Chandler gets it.)buzzer n.蜂鸣器Chandler: Please dont do that again, its a horrible sound.Paul: (over the intercom) Its, uh, its Paul.over the intercom: communication system linking different roomsMonica: Oh God, is it 6:30? Buzz him in 让他进来!Buzz him in： buzz 就是按楼房的防盗门时发出的声音，这样用法又简单，又形象 /Buzz him in: make a signal using the buzzer to let him inJoey: Whos Paul?Ross: Paul the Wine Guy, Paul?Monica: Maybe. Joey: Wait. Your not a real date tonight is with Paul the Wine Guy?Ross: He finally asked you out?Monica: Yes!Chandler: Ooh, this is a Dear Diary moment.
