1. Mary Alice Voiceover: When she was younger, Sophie Bremner was a hopeless romantic. She was also hopelessly naïve, which was how she came to be married four times.
Hopeless: 绝望的,不可救药
2. Mary Alice Voiceover: Marriage is a simple concept. Basically it is a contract between two people-That binds them together for life- In the hopes that they can live happily ever after.
Sadly some contracts-are meant to be broken.这段话中没有什么生词,但我还是把他挑了出来,是因为这段话是描写婚姻的,我猜想看这部片子的人大多是未婚女性或者男性吧,DH是部比较消极的SITCOM,但用词都很简单且意义深长。这段描写婚姻的话就写得很好,也不难懂,但真正要经营好,需要夫妻相互间的信任,包含和理解。就想Carlos在第一集中提到的,婚姻生活需要compromise妥协。
3. Carlos: It's possible. You buy that stuff in bulk, six months at a time, right?
In bulk:散装,大批量
4. Tom: Honey, I'm going to be late home tonight. Peterson wants to take a bunch of us out for drinks.
a bunch of: 一堆人 bunch: 串,束 v.捆成一束
5. Tom: No. I've got ten days pent up in me. We are doing it tonight. You've got nothing to worry about.
pent up: 被关闭的;被幽禁的
6. Tom: I was just wondering what that smell was.
Lynette: Oh. Oh, it's probably baby drool.
Drool: 流口水
