绯闻女孩第一季

Lily: Serena you’ve been gone, doing who knows what with god knows who.

Serena你一直都不在这里,在鬼知道什么是哪儿的地方做鬼知道是什么的事儿.

* 很可爱的说法吧。

这里有同学提出疑问，某迷核对过了，是原文，you've been gone里的这个gone个人理解是做形容词（额，就是那个类型的了。不懂语法，差不多就是那个意思吧。。），就像avril有首歌叫when you're gone，同理。恩。

Chuck: Any interest in fresh air?

想出去走走透透气吗？

* 好了，邀请别人终于可以不用“do you want to/would you wanna……”了。ps，这里C的意思是出去抽烟。。

Gossip: Game on.

游戏开始了。

* on的用法如果全部都掌握，那么很多句子的表达都会更简洁了。比如“穿鞋”，就不用说“put your shoes on”而可以简单地说，“shoes on” 了。

Eric: No offense.

Blair: None taken.

——没有冒犯的意思。

——我不介意。

* 这是很经典的问答。好好记住了。。

Chuck: Move, plz.

请让一下。

* 如果是某迷，之前只知道，“excuse me”和“outta my way”两个说法。目前觉得这个很可爱。ps说这个可爱的原因是觉得它体现了C的风格，贵族式的傲慢。

Blair: Done and done.

成交！

* 成交还有其他的说法，比如单用“Deal”。不过觉得大部份人应该都知道吧，下次可以用这个，比较有新鲜感了。。嗯。。

Blair：Nighty-night.

晚安。

* 可爱的说法吧~女孩子好好记下~。

Nate: You set me up.

你陷害了我。或者，你设计了我。

Gossip girl: Some one pours that man a drink.

有人要使他难堪了。

* 这里的语境是C被bart发现看脱衣舞，C发现Bart跟另一个女人在一起，他心生报复之念，想要跟Lily告密，这时GG说了这句话。我以前会错意了。

“somebody pour him a drink的意思是“快来个人帮他倒杯酒”。 如果是倒酒到某个人的身上应该是somebody pourED a drink ON him才是”。补充，by 刘仰牧

Blair：Yes, it would be really nice if I was sailing on the may flower.

对，如果我是古代人（这样穿）就好看了。

* May flower 的典故。就是五月花号的那条船，英国人登上新大陆用的那条．

Gossip：Be careful what you fish for.

对你调查的东西要小心噢。

* 这里用的fish for,有点意思。

Chuck：I was born loaded.

我是含着金汤匙出生的。

* 原来金汤匙是这样说D。

Nate’s mum: Not another word of this.

别说了。

Vanessa: Baby steps.

慢慢来嘛。

Blair: Next you cross me, I won’t be as forgiving.

下次你再背叛我，我就不会手软了。

* 背叛用的cross，手软用的forgiving，算是意译？

Dan: I’m doomed.

我完蛋了。

Nate’s pa: I can hardly contain my joy.

我无法抑制自己的狂喜。

Blair: Guard my drink.

看着我的酒。

* Guard~

Gossip girl: Prohibition never stood a chance against exhibition.

“阻止”在“表现”面前是没有用的。

* 这个。。押韵 。。还有stand a chance.

Nate: I’m not over you.

我忘不了你。

* Over的感觉很棒，ASH新专辑里LITTLE MISS那首“I’m not over it”有感觉。

Dan: Mum’s having an affair.

妈妈有外遇了。

* 可能有人不知道affair有这个意思。。比如某迷。

Ep8

Father: You don’t say.

不用说这个。

* Do 的用法很活，某迷印象比较深的一个是，问人家会不会说英语，一般不能惯性中文思维地问，can u speak English而是do you。

Chuck: You wish.

你想得美。

* 还有一个，是在前面出现的，In your dreams.

Vanessa: C’mon, there’s nothin’ like a lil 80s hair metal to put a smile on your face after a day like this.

在经历了这样一天后，没有什么能比80年代的轻金属更让你开心的事儿了。

*很可爱的用法，to put a smile on your face.

Serena: Good point.

说得好。

Jenny: As you were.

你们继续吧。

Ep9

Gossip: The only thing I’m dishing is seconds.

我只会上炒冷饭这道菜。

* 之前不知道dish有动词，ps，根据同学的说法，seconds应该是类似于二手货之类的意思，我觉得应该也是。。谢谢~

Dan: Right of your way, pal.

看路啊，伙计。

* 从马路中间把S从出租车前救下来，哈。可惜S当时根本不认识他。

Blair: How could he just blow me off?

他怎么可以放我鸽子？

* 以前放鸽子只知道Stand sb. Up这个说法。比如，she stood me up,她放我鸽子。

Eleanor: You had me worried sick.

你让我担心死了。

Ep10

Serena: It was a last minute thing.

（他）也是刚决定的。

* 如果说，I’m a last minute person,那也可能是表达“我就是那种不到最后一分钟就不努力型”的意思。

Ep11

Serena: Then vite, vite!

那就快点吧！

*　根据同学补充，这个是法语。GG里好像有好几处有法语和日语来着。。

Eleanor: What am I supposed to do then? Make a scene? Behave like a pathetic, scorned wife?

那我应该怎么做？大闹一场？或者扮得像怨妇一样？

* 这里的重点是Make a scene，上一集Blair跟chuck说，Nate从来不会让我出丑，就用的这个词组。

Passer-by: Of course, the throng of children in mittens should have tipped me off.

噢，当然，那群戴着棒球手套的孩子应该可以告诉我。

* 这里的告诉有暗示的意思，tip off这个词组在第一集还是第二集Dan在车上遇到NC的时候也有提到，他说，我的校服应该能告诉你们我跟你们是一个学校的，大概是这个意思。

Gossip: Looks like daddy’s lil’ girl isn’t sugar and spice and everything nice after all.

看来爸爸的乖女儿也不是那么地完美。

* 这里的重点有两个，一个是sugar and spice,一个是and everything.

Ep12

Chuck: She’s been crystal about that since we got back.

她对此表现得很明显。

* 喜欢这里的用词，crystal.

Ep13

Dan: Thank you, even if I did have to drag it out of yourself.

谢谢，虽然这是我逼你说出来的。

Blair: I can’t be held responsible for her mood swings.

她心情不好不关我的事。

Serena: Since you and your reputation don’t need me and my low-rent taste, you and Warldof name can weather the storm alone.

既然你和你的名声不需要我和我低下的品味，你和W的名声就独自面对（这一切，指B面对的危机）吧。

* 两个点，一个是low-rent taste,一个是weather the storm.

Ep14

Blair: We met briefly on Thanksgiving.

我们在感恩节时见过一面。

* 用的是briefly~这里要小注意小注意下噢~之前我是不知道这个用法哒。。

Blair: She’s running herself ragged.

她在努力。

* run oneself ragged.之前不知道这个说法，可以记一下。

Ep17

Chuck: I’d say, let’s get the bitch.

我会说，那婊子死定了。

* 这句话的直译是，让我们搞定/整死那婊子。相似的用法在《Freaky Friday》（辣妈辣妹，非常经典拉，Linz的一部很有名的校园喜剧）里也有出现，Anna说，he always tries to get me（他总是想尽办法整我），所以，同鞋们记住这个神奇的get~用法超多的~

Ep18

Blair: Before you landed on my bed, we actually landed on a good idea.

在你爬上我的床以前我们已经想到了一个好主意。

* 重点是land on a good idea.

Dan：(It) doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.

这的确很难说出口。

* 外国人喜欢用一些形象的说法。。不能从舌头上滚出来=很难说出口。。

Blair: Right on schedule.

不出所料噢。

* 这里的语境是B算准G会打电话给D，不出5秒，G果然打了，然后B说的这句。可以在预料中的事情发生时用（废话。。），感觉就像安排好了一样（schedule）。

Chuck: There won’t be a dry eye in the house, trust me.

在屋子的人都会哭得稀里哗啦的。

* “不会有干的眼睛”，双重否定用起来很可爱。

Dan: Feels like one of you is a fish out of water?

你们其中的一个感觉会很难受。

* “离开水的鱼”来说难受的感觉，某迷想起了一首歌。恩。

Season 2, Episode 1: Summer Kind of Wonderful

【台词解析】

1.

- Look, she need time to decompress from her breakup anyway.

- Covering for me works for her, too.

- Let’s go to my place before somebody spots us.

decompress: chill out, wind down.放松，减压，释放。这句话的意思就是“Serena需要时间从分手里缓过劲来”。另外举个例子：After a hard day in the office I like to decompress with a large cup of coffee.

cover: to help someone out by

1) filling in(代替). e.g. I got a hot date, can you cover my shift (替我上班) on Friday night?

2) backup their excuse

3) going along with their lie, cosign for them, corroborate their story (替人圆谎) e.g. He told his mom that he'd been at my house all night. I covered for him.

4) provide supporting firepower for them in a shootout(枪战片里的“掩护我”) e.g. Cover my back, I'm goin' in!!!

在这里cover应该是第3个意思，S和N互相圆谎，各取所需。N可以背地里与有夫之妇继续affair(婚外情), S则可以假装已经忘记与Dan分手的伤痛。注意N在用了works for her这个短语，work意思是“有作用，有效果，有好处”。任何有效的东西，都可以说It works.

place: 住的地方就是place. 很少说go to my house, 更不说go to my home.

spot: to detect or discern, especially visually. “别人发现我们了，认出我们”，不说find, 也不说recognize，而是应该用这个spot. 另外，辨认出罪犯的模样，也用spot the culprit.

2.

Also spotted-Serena Van der Woodsen on Copper’s beach…Alone again. We’ve heard talk that things are heating up with Nate Archibald. And where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire. But if that’s the case, why has Nate fallen off our radar and Serena, as always, sighted solo?

heat up: When two people are together and things start "heating up," whether it be holding hands, making out, fooling around or having sex. A synonym for "hook up".

if that’s the case: 如果事情真的如此

off the radar: radar就是雷达，意思说总是消失在我们视线里，连雷达都探测不到。off the radar还可以表示illegal, illegitimate: I took his money and did the job "off the radar," avoiding the IRS, the FBI, and Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

3.

I had my eye on her.

下次遇到要表达“她很漂亮，她很迷人”，除了用那些she开头的句型，也可以用这个以I为主语的句子。

4.

- Speaking of, where is that story of yours? You know, the one your internship requires you turn in?

- Yes, it’s, uh, it’s imminent.

- So is death. Be more specific.

speaking of: 说到这个，说起来……这是我们经常会用到的一个短语。

imminent: ready to take place; hanging threateningly over ones head，马上就要发生的。特别强调 “命悬一线”的情况，比如danger, illness, death. 所以教授催Dan教功课，Dan回答imminent(快了，马上就好了), 教授就tease他说”so is death”，你的死期也不远了。

5.

- Eleanor returns next week, and we are still behind. Now since I have to go to that party this weekend, I won’t be around, and therefore, neither will you.

- You can’t be finished.

behind: 指的是behind the schedule, 落后，晚了。口语里可以简单的就说behind.

I won’t be around.: 我一直都不在。注意around比here要地道。

You can’t be finished.: 你完成不了的。 用的是被动语态。

6.

The only thing lamer than dating Dan Humphrey is mourning Dan Humphrey. And the only reason you’re still sitting shivah is because you haven’t gotten back out there and had your summer fling.

lame: 这个单词太常用了。在这里表示“傻，愚蠢”，它还可以表示“无趣”，比如冷笑话就是lame joke. 你说一个人He’s lame，就是说He is no fun.

mourn和shivah都是哀悼的意思，shivah源自shiva, 犹太教里它指七日服丧期。

fling: deliberately short-term sexual relationship between two people. Longer than a one-night stand, not as serious-sounding as "affair". No deep personal involvement required, just the sex and a bit of attention.

7.

-At least I could have gotten a more interesting stand-in than James. Do you know how hard it is to find a good fake boyfriend on short notice?

-Well, he was smart and fun at tea yesterday, and he’s really cute, too.

-You don’t have to lie anymore, Serena, he served his purpose. Now that Chuck on his way back to the city, I can dump James just in time to go to the white party stag.

stand-in: 替身

on short notice: 在仓促的情况下

serve one’s purpose: 符合需求，解决问题。这里表示“他可以功成身退了”。

stag: to go alone

8.

-So you think James is and untalented Mr. Ripley?

-If you want entrees in upper class, there’s no easier mark than a wronged woman. It’s time to call in the big guns.

Mr. Ripley: Matt Damon曾经演过一部片子，叫做The Talented Mr. Ripley（天才雷普利），Matt扮演的雷普利冒充贵族身份，混迹于上流社会。

wronged: 被辜负的，失意的人

big gun: 大人物，有手段的人

9.

You wanna check out the competition.

调查竞争对手，这里指的是看看情敌长什么样子。

10.

It’s no wonder you hate “charade.” It’s too close to home.

难怪你讨厌那部电影，简直就是你的心声，简直就说到你心坎里去了。

Season 2, Episode 2: Never Been Marcused

绯闻女孩第二季第2集：从未爱上他

播出时间：2008年9月8日

剧情简介：马库斯勋爵夫人的身份让我们最喜爱的上东区富豪们大为吃惊。奈特和赛琳娜关系更为亲密。恰克与马库斯勋爵开始了一段出人意料的友谊，却被布莱尔拆穿。

【台词解析】

1.

-Things are going south with Lord Marcus.

-Who’s Lord Marcus?

-James. It turns out that he was only pretending to be a commoner. It’s like Roman Holiday, only I’m Gregory Peck, and he’s Audrey Hepburn.

- Oh, suddenly it’s all so clear.

go south means things are turning bad. 这个说法来源于地图"上北下南"的规定，所以go south可以用来代表任何下降、变坏的趋势。可以用来形容和某人的关系，经济走势，或者物品的变坏。

commoner: 普通人，凡人。另外，这里B用了罗马假日来做比喻，把自己比作记者，Marcus则是那位公主，非常可爱的比喻。

suddenly it’s all so clear: 一下子就明朗了，清楚了。clear是个常用词，一种表示“无障碍，畅通的”，比如警察冲进房间，发现里面没有危险，他就会喊clear。第二种用法是用来询问对方是否明白你的意思，通常有种很权威，很高高在上的语气，比如Do I make myself clear? / Is it clear?

2.

- He’s a lord, and I love him.

- Okay, I’m gonna take your word for it, but, Blair, love?

- And not just because Tom Hanks gave him a Kleenex at Lady Di’s funeral.

take your word for it: 我相信你说的话

Kleenex: 其实就是“舒洁”，世界上第一张面巾纸，已经被字典收入，用来表示“纸巾”。类似的还有Xerox, 施乐，这个单词可以用来指复印机。

Lady Di: Lady Diana, 黛安娜王妃。西方人一般都用昵称Di来称呼她。

3.

Blair Waldor, a fling? You’re not exactly lowmaintenance.

fling: 在第1集里已经介绍过，指那种短暂的，不用负责任的邂逅

low maintenance: 相对于high maintenance而言，就是《蛋白质女孩》里提到的“高维修女子”，那种需要花很多心思，要求特别高的女孩子就叫做high maintenance，B就是其中的典型. 而low maintenance，指的就是那种要求很低，很容易打发的人。

4.

-Charles, sidebar.

-Actually, we weren’t finished.

-Notice how my voice didn’t go up at the end?

这里B叫Chuck到旁边的吧台去，Chuck说还没跟Marcus谈完。B就说“你没注意到我的语气不是升调吗？”在英语里，语调上升就表示询问和请求，语调下降表示命令。很明显，B是命令Chuck，而不是邀请他去旁边。所以我们说英文的时候，也要注意自己的语调，否则同一句话，表达的意思会完全不一样。

5.

-The federalprosecutor(起诉人，控方) has taken your father’s leaving town as an admission of guilt(认罪). They want toforfeit(没收) our assets forrestitution(归还，赔偿).

-What, they wanna take our money?

-Well, not yet, but they havefrozen(冻结) our accounts.

-And now they are making aninventory(盘点) of everything that we own.

主要是一些法律词汇，“认罪”除了admission of guilt(这里指默认自己有罪), 还有一种叫做plead guilty, 后者多用于法庭，法官问，被告是否认罪，回答就是plead guilty(PG), 或者plead not guilty(PNG).

inventory: 存货，make an inventory of就是盘点存货的意思。后文Chuck还提到自己在liquidate my shares in Victorla, 这里的liquidate是清算财产的意思, share就是股份。

6.

Something tells me you’re off your game. Anything I can help with?

off: to be weird, off center, not normal. 在这里指“心不在焉。”

7.

-I’ve dated a lot of top flight girls, and she always sends them running. It’s like…and she gets inside their head, figures out their worst fears and just ruthlessly exploits that fear.

-That’s rough.

-Not to mention, she’s completely got my father’s ear. Of course, Blair is desperate to meet her. And when Blair sets her mind on something…

top flight: top notch, very good. Moslty used to describe ones wife.

send them running: 使她们落荒而逃

get my father’s ear: 我父亲对她言听计从

sets her mind on something: 下定决心做某事

8.

-Marcus dated the descendant of Princess Grace. His consort needs to be able to host royal dinners andhobnobwith oligarchs and dictators.

- Well, if you can’t find common ground with a dictator, I don’t know who can.

hobnobwith: 亲切交谈

oligarchs: 寡头政治执政者

find common ground with: 找到共通点。这里S在嘲讽B，暗指B也是一个独裁者。

9.

You know, they’re obviously just trying to scare us to get us to rat out my dad.

scare: 吓到某人。最常用的短语就是You scare me! 你吓倒我了。形容词是scary, 比如scary movie(恐怖电影)。

rat out: 告密。A rat is a tattletale or a snitch. To rat out someone is to snitch on others or tell on others.

10.

-He’s outside of my regular circle.

-Oh, so you just asked someone you barely know for money?

第一句用来表示“他不是我社交圈子里的人”，第二句里的barely know指“不太熟的人”。注意这两种句型，有时候在中翻英的时候，我们不一定能想到如此地道的表达方法。

11.

-I wasn’t expecting anyone so young or so beautiful.

-Just because I didn’t give birth to Marcus doesn’t mean I’m any less interested in his well-being. I don’t usually take meetings with children, Charles, so what do you have to say for yourself?

-Lordy, lordy, look who’s 40-or ate least a well-preserved 38.

expect: 料想到，预料到。特地highlight出来，是因为很多人在写“想到”的时候，都习惯用think,其实很多时候expect会更贴切。

give birth to: Marcus不是我生的。怀孕叫做carry a baby, 流产就是miscarry. 预产期叫做due date, 生孩子就是give birth to a child.

well-being: 幸福

what do you have to say for yourself: 你有什么要说的？

well-preserved: 保养的很好

12.

-Chuck’s here, and Blair didn’t invite him.

-Maybe he’s her plus-one.

plus-one: your guest when you are invited to an event. 这个在第1集里面也出现过，Jenny就是Eric的plus-one, 然后才得以进入white party.

13.

-But I assure you, there’s an explanation for all of it.

-Save your breath(省省吧), Blair. Chuck didn’t tell me a thing.

-Wait, he didn’t?

-I told him not to bother(不用麻烦了). None of it makes any difference to me(对我来说毫无意义), because nothing will change the fact the despite your best efforts which are completely transparent(显而易见), by the way, Marcus is never going to end up with a lowly(地位低下的) Waldorf.

make difference: It means to make an important effect on something, especially a good effect. 意思是对某事产生巨大的影响或者作用，或者也可以表示为意义重大，与众不同。比如夸一个新产品如何的标新立异，就可以说it makes huge difference. 用在否定句里，it doesn’t make any difference, 表示这样做没有必要，没有什么差别。

end up: 相当于wind up, 注意这里的wind发I的音，和“风”那个wind发音不同，这个词组表示最后结局如何，沦落到什么地步，你可以说He ends up alone.(他最后孤独终老), 以可以说Jack ends up in the jail.(Jack最终沦落到蹲监狱的地步). end up也可以表示arrive at, 比如说After 30 minutes’ driving, we finally ended up at the shopping center.

14.

-This party is a complete bust. My whole life is a bust.

-Well, it serves you right. You were scheming to convince Marcus you’re someone you’re not.

-But my intentions were good. I really do like him. I just…as soon as I knew he like me, I would have relaxed and dropped the manipulative plotting and devoted myself to being the best girlfriend ever.

bust: A total failure, a complete waste of time. 另外，在枪战片里，我们也经常能听到got busted，这个时候bust指的是police action, or got caught, e.g. Joey got busted for selling drugs to an undercover police.

it serves you right: 给某人应得的结果，可以指生活带你不薄，也可以指给你应得的报应。贬义褒义都可以用。

scheme, manipulative, plot: 这三个单词都可以指诡计多端的，善用心计的

But my intentions were good: 但我的出发点是好的。这也是我们口语里经常说的一句话。

drop: give up

Season 2, Episode 3: The Dark Night

绯闻女孩第二季第3集：黑夜

播出时间：2008年9月15日

剧情简介：由于城市大范围停电，Serena和Dan被困在电梯里，而两人之间身份的差距也由此显露了出来；Marcus和Blair之间也遇到了麻烦，但麻烦源自他们自身-两个人之间缺乏激情……

【台词解析】

1.

It's not often you find a man who'sintelligent,sophisticated, has anappreciationfor golden-age Hollywood and is a gentleman toboot.

to boot: moreover; in addition to. Kristen's an amazing girl, and sexy to boot!

sophisticated: having a refined knowledge of the ways of the world cultivated especially through wide experience，也就是说见过世面的，有阅历的。这是一个很容易被误译的单词，字典里给出的解释是“诡辩的, 久经世故的”，但其实这个单词可以是褒义词（如同在这句话的解释），也可以是贬义词，解释为deprived of native or original simplicity，即“老于世故”的，但后者出现的情况不是很多。

2.

- Clearly there's some sort of...blockage.

- Perhaps...

- No, Chuck.

- One more go-around, just to clear the pipes.

- You are not using Blair as sexual Drano.

Serena 去找Chuck, 正好碰见那个日本空姐，于是就聊起Chuck糜烂的sex life，只见Chuck一脸郁闷状，Serena恍然大悟，原来Chuck最近在sex方面是“屡败屡战，屡战屡败”。Chuck解释说是因为有些 blockage，他想到了找Blair来clear the pipes.

关键的地方来了。blockage本意是阻塞，你家的水管堵住了，就用blockage.而clear the pipe就是疏通管道。上文和下文是对应的，但这里用的是字面意思背后的metaphor. pipe, 可以用来指dick(omg, 希望没有人再用Dick这个英文名字了)，而clear the pipe就是指you receive an orgasm from a girl; usually its when you haven't received sex in a while. 另外说一下，pipe这个单词除了指dick, 还可以用来指blow job, 来源据说是法语里一摸一样拼写的pipe, 读做"peep". (恩…这些单词都是当年看sex and the city学来的)

至于后面Serena叫Chuck不要把Blair当作是sexual Drano, 这里的Drano是一个排水管清洁剂的品牌，人家的作用就是用来clear the pipes的。

3.

-You like him. He likes you. So just call him.

-He stood me up, remember?

He stood me up: 放我鸽子，让我空等一场。后面Vanessa看见Catherine和Nate在一起，就质问Is that the reason you keep canceling on me? 这句话也可以表示放鸽子的意思。

另外stand up for sb.可以解释为support. 后面有一个场景，Dan在公园里遇到三个小妹妹，很老成的在评论Dan与Serena复合的事情，其中有个小姑娘说Your whole breakup? We're on your side. 这句We’re on your side意思是“我们站在你这一边”，和stand up for是一个意思。

4.

I got us a room at the Mercer. We can order in.

order in在这里是指点酒店的room service, 在房间里吃饭。日常生活中这个单词表示“叫外卖”。take out则是表示外带的意思，在快餐店里点餐，服务员会问你for here or to go, 或者for here or take-out? for here就是堂吃，to go或者take-out就是外带。而打包叫做wrap up，至于问服务员要打包的盒子，那就叫做doggy bag了。至于为什么要叫狗食袋，一种说法是最早美国人在餐厅吃剩下的东西，不好意思打包，怕别人觉得自己小气，于是就会问服务员要一个袋子，说是带回去给自己家的狗吃。久而久之，doggy bag就变成打包袋/盒的代名词了。

5.

-You know, and if we just start telling people...

- What? What could anybody possibly say that would change this?

- You're right. I'm in.

不要小看I'm in这个短语，虽然简单，用处却很多。在这里表示“你是对的，就听你的吧”，在其他地方还可以表示“加入一个团队，加入一个活动”。比如你朋说周末组织一场篮球赛，你打算参加，你就可以说I'm in. 又比如你们谋划什么大行动，你大义凛然的说“算上我”，那也叫做I'm in.

6.

Oh, this is awesome! You guys totally belong together.

这句话出现在Marcus撞见Blair与Chuck接吻的场景里，原意是“你们两个真是绝配啊”，根据说话语气不同，表达的含义也不一样。这里肯定是贬义 “你们两个极品，真是太配了”，在其他场合也可以是出于真心的赞美“你们真是天造地设的一对”，相当于说You guys are a perfect match.

7.

-So when am I gonna get to see you again?

-Depends. Can I count on you not to cancel at the last second?

depends: 看情况吧

count on: 依靠，指望，也可以说rely on或者depend on. 它的否定句Don’t count on it也很常用，相当于“你别想了，别指望了，没戏了”。

8.

Duchess, it's me. He's bringing her. And for the record, whatever you're planning with Nate, my bedroom floor isoff-limits.

for the record: 一种用法是“必须指出，让我提醒你”，就是这句话里的含义。另外一个用法就是按照它的字面解释“正式记录在案，有记录可查的”。还有一个词组也很常用，就是off the record, 解释为“秘密的，不被记录的”，比如警察要盘问线人套资料，他跟线人说“你说的话不会纪录在案，不会被追究责任”，那么就可以说It’s off the record.

off-limits:禁止进入的，禁止接触的

9.

-Making sure you're okay. I tried calling, but-

-Oh, yeah. My phone died. Sorry.

手机没电：My phone died. 没电也可以说dead battery.

10.

- Uh, you stillpositive you don't want metagging along?

- Yeah. No offense, Dad, but I think you, me and Serena--Things are awkward enough.

- Well, tt's not like I'd have to be a thirdwheel. I can bring a date.

positive相当于sure, tag along尾随，跟随

No offense: 无意冒犯。当你要说一些比较直接但又是事实的话（比如说对方很boring,或者很胖之类的），就会先说no offense——我无意冒犯，不过我们就事论事的说……

third wheel: 就是第三者啦

11.

-But someone could walk in. Dorota or...

-So? Didn't you see "Atonement"? That scene in the library when they're discovered?

-Mm. No. No, Blair. That's not you.

-It's not?

-You're adelicatelittle flower, Nothing like thattart, Keira Knightley.

这个出现在比较开头的部分，Marucs帮忙Blair准备party,Blair在客厅里挑逗他。其中提到的Atonement（赎罪），是Keira Knightley和James McAvoy一起主演的电影，其中有个场景就是他们两人在家里的图书馆里发生sex，并且被女主人公的妹妹撞见，由此引发了后面的悲剧……anyway，个人认为Keira Knightley在这一段里穿绿色长裙的形象是非常stunning的。这部电影及它的原著，都很值得一看。

12.

Ralph Lauren adores you.

发生在Cathrine带Nate去买衣服的那个场景。Ralph Lauren是衣服品牌，最著名的就是它的POLO衫了。Friends里的Rachel就在这个公司工作，其中有一集Ralph还亲自客串，和Rachel同搭一部电梯。

13.

Relax. Nothing happened with Madame Butterfly.

Chuck找了一个日本空姐，当时管家还很嘲的说"Sir, the flight from tokyo has landed." Madame Butterfly就是蝴蝶夫人，这位蝴蝶夫人在歌剧里就是一个日本人。

14.

No, Nate. There are no "but"s. You lied to me, And you're sleeping with some Mrs. Robinson.

这段话是Vanessa说Nate的。这位Mrs.Robinson出自电影《毕业生》——已婚妇女Mrs.Robinson挑逗大学生Ben并与之发生关系。想来我也是因为这部电影而学会seduce这个单词的。

Season 2, Episode 4: The Ex-Files

【台词解析】

1.

- Say "Mom", and I will kill you in your sleep.

- Decaf, Serena. I was going to say "Mrs. Bass".

decaf: 这里指那些uncool, lame, stupid的事情。本意是不含咖啡因的咖啡，国内的Starbucks就有提供，无论是cappuccino还是latte，任何口味的咖啡都可以是decaf的，只要你在买的时候跟店员说明一下就可以。

2.

No, wait. Just hold on for a second. You crash the party and you tell me to break it off with Catherine and then

you pull an 180 and you tell me to stay with her and then you just bolt. I... I mean, did I do something...

crash the party: To enter a party uninvited

break it off with: 和某人断绝往来，注意它和break up的差别，后者是分手的意思。

pull an 180: 当然就是态度180度大转弯啦，change your mind的另外一种说法。

bolt: run away, 逃跑，闪了

3.

It’s having to see them date someone else that's hard. Why do you think I rub it in Chuck's face every chance I get?

- A twisted version of foreplay?

- Ignoring you.

rub it in one’s face: 故意触人痛处。后来Serena, Dan, 还有Dan在学校认识的那个女孩子一起约会，期间S认识了一个曲棍球(lacrosse)队队长，并且把他带到Dan的面前示威，Dan就对S说”You invite me out so you can rub lacrosse guy in my face?”

twisted: 变态。另外一个表示变态的单词是pervert，不过它特指那些很“色狼”的行为，例如偷窥，或者有一些特殊癖好。

ignoring you: 不理你了

4.

- Cashing out so soon, Humphrey?

- You really should wear a bell.

- Kinky. I'll think about it. I hope you're not leaving.

cash out: to bounce or to go to bed. e.g. The movie is lame, I’m gonna cash out to somewhere else.另外注意take off这个单词，也可以表示离开的意思，而且要用进行时: I’m taking off. cash out来自形容词cashed, 表示灭了(is gone, run out), 耗尽了(reach the end of its useful life)或者形容傻的(boring, stupid).

kinky: 这里相当于weird或者bizarre. 不过kinky还可以指sexually deviant（在sex方面有特殊癖好的)，而且这个意思很常用。老外特别总结了kinky sex种类，包括: Foot-sucking, rubber wearing, pee on me, fruit-fxxkin', candlewax drippin', long fingernail scrapin', tossed salad eatin',multiple partner havin', she-male, oil-drenched, chocolate sauce, whipped cream covered,vibrator usin',dress-up,banned in 30 states type of sex

5.

Amanda, we have a few ground rules here. Now that we're all friends, you should know that dating someone's ex is frowned upon.

ground rules: 基本规则

frown upon: frown就是皱眉头的动作，这里就是说你约会朋友的前任男友，肯定会被大家否定，会被鄙视的。英语中有很多用动作表示态度的词组，比如shrug off（耸肩），意思就是耸肩表示蔑视；比如thumb up（伸出大拇指），那么就是表示顶呱呱的意思；同样的，thumb down，就是表示很烂的了。所以遇到这些身体部位的词组，可以想象一下自己做这个动作时候要表示什么意思，那么多半就能猜出词组的含义了。

6.

And I can't confront Catherine because the butler(管家) will remember me and she'll drop the dime on the captain.

confront: 正面对质。强调与某人正面对话，而且很有自信。

drop the dime on:告密，the act of snitching, ratting, or otherwise disclosing information meant to hurt or discredit someone else. This a play on tips and selling someone out.

7.

How can I use this to get Nate off the hook?

off the hook:从某个困境中解放出来，这个说法来自于形容鱼脱离鱼钩，引申的含义就表示逃离困境、责难等不好的情况。另外，the phone is off the hook，表示电话没有挂好。

8.

Hooking up with your dad's second wife? I thought my family was twisted, but you people take the cake.

hook up with:

这里指have sex，不过当它表示这个意思的时候，你hook up的对象，通常不是你的恋人或者爱人，就比如Catherine和Marcus这种的。hook up还可以指make out（亲热）或者hang out（外出约会）。总之两个人搞在一起了，就可以用hook up.

take the cake: to be the winner. 以前美国南部的奴隶主会举行一种叫做cakewalking的比赛，参加比赛的都是黑奴，步态优美者就能获得一块蛋糕作为奖励。

9.

- It's only happened a few times, and I put a stop to it when I met you.

- I really opened myself up to you.

- Can't... can't we still...

- Oh, please. I just want to get through this without throwing up in my mouth.

open myself up to you:我向你敞开了心扉

throw up:“吐”在口语中最常用的就是throw up和puke了，至于vomit，是医学上的讲法。

10.

Catherine, whatever it is, just spare me. What do you mean? Vanessa talked to the duke? No, I told her to stay out of this.

spare me: give me a break, 放过我，饶了我，别来烦我了

stay out of this: 不要插手这件事情。

Season 2, Episode 5: The Serena Also Rises

绯闻女孩第二季第5集：Serena上位

播出时间：美国时间9月29日

剧情简介：当Blair知道了她的老妈Eleanor把她的时装Show的前排票都给了Serena和她社交名流朋友后，决定要破坏这次时装Show...

【台词解析】

1.

This art director justran offwith the husband of this photo editor. So I sat all of "Vanity Fair" between them. I figured we'd want to avoid acatfightin front of thecatwalk.

run off: 逃跑，这里有“私奔”的含义在里面。“私奔”也可以说elope.

Vanity Fair: 《名利场》杂志（http://www.vanityfair.com/），讲很多名流的八卦。这里喻指把这两个冤家位置分开，让那些名流们坐在他们中间。

catfight: two women fighting

catwalk: T台

2.

It seems that Dartmouth's whole English department waspoachedby Yale.

poach: 这里是to steal. 作为名词，还可以解释为“水煮荷包蛋”。

顺便补充几个早餐里蛋类的讲法，很多酒店的早餐buffet都有专人负责煎蛋，你可以根据自己的喜好告诉他你需要什么样的做法：

scrambled egg 炒蛋（和中餐的炒蛋不一样，里面通常会放cheese一起炒，盐和胡椒也需要自己另外加）

omelet 煎蛋卷（就是把煎蛋卷起来，里面包火腿、洋葱、青椒、香菇等）

fired egg, sunny side up荷包蛋(只煎一面)

fried egg, over easy荷包蛋(两面都煎)

3.

Sheshoulderedmost of theworkloadat the atelier this week

shoulder: 我们中国人说的“肩负重任”，英文就是shoulder the workload

4.

Blair would be furious. Things are alreadytensebetween us.

最近我们关系紧张，可以用Things are already tense between us这个短语。

5.

You know that jenny's working with your mom tonight. I also know thatyou don't have my daughter's best interests at heart.

你并不是真的关心我女儿的事情。注意红色部分的表述，作为一个non native speaker, 我们比较少会想到用这样的表述。

6.

Oh, howgenerous, serena. I should feel soblessed that you would include me in your little group.

bless: lucky 这个单词出现了两次，另外一次是Eleanor谈到她的publicist，说It's a blessing she was hauled off to(离开) rehab for stealing her son's Ritalin.

7.

That guy just said I'm ahooker.

Did you just call my girlfriend aprostitute?

It was anhonest mistake. It's not my fault your girlfriend dresses like a high-classcall girl.

hooker, prostitute, call girl都是“妓女”的意思，另外我记得还有一个单词叫做escort，也可以表示妓女或者男妓。

honest mistake: 无心之错

8.

When the phone rang in the dead of the night, I expected

a bootycall from Lucy the stewardess, not a call from lockup（拘留所）.

booty call: 跟靴子无关，其实就是call for sex，通常是不用负责任的那种，no strings attached.

9.

I told laurel my daughter could make a better seating chart than that drug-addledpublicist.

drug-addled: drug毒品，addled腐坏的，混乱的，drug-addled指一个人吃的毒品种类太多了，都混在一起，无法辨别出他到底吃的是哪种。

顺便说几个电视里经常提到的毒品说法：

大麻：pot (smoke pot，“抽大麻”最常用的讲法), weed, joint, substance, marijuana (marijuana有点像是专有名词，口语中很少用)

海洛因：heroin

吗啡：morphine

鸦片：opium

可卡因：cocaine

迷幻剂：LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide)

10.

- Wow. wow, that's cool. You just signal thebartender, and she sends over a line of shots? Do you…do you have another signal if you want amartini?...All right, pass me the shots.

...

The liquor's just a chaser.

liquor是酒的意思，chaser本意是“追逐的人，跟在后面的人”，用在喝酒上面就是特指“在烈酒之后喝的清淡饮料”，通常是啤酒或者水。在这个场景里，Chuck给Dan一粒药丸（应该是摇头丸之类的），同时点了tequila, 意思是这个很烈的tequila跟药丸比起来，就如同清水而已了，只是给你送药用的。

说一些酒水知识：

liquor: 酒 hard liquor 就是烈酒 一般用high ball(大玻璃杯)来装，想象一下whiskey的杯子就明白了。

martini: 马天尼，有专门的martini glass，就是锥形的高脚杯。Sex And The City里的Carrie就专门点Cosmopolitan martini.

shot: 纯的不含饮料和冰块的酒，用小酒杯装，一杯就叫做一个shot, Chuck点的就是这个

cocktail: 鸡尾酒是由多种酒混合而成的，成分包括：liquor（烈酒）和liqueur（甜酒）及mix（调酒用饮料，包括各种 juice，soda，coke或milk）。由于加了mix，所以口感很好，不会喝酒的同学一定要小心，千万不要因为没有酒味而猛喝一气，非常容易醉的。cocktail的名称都很有趣，比如螺丝钻，新加坡司令，血腥玛丽，我喜欢的是B52轰炸机和长岛冰茶。

另外要注意，点酒的时候，如果要加冰，那叫做on the rocks, 不加冰就是straight up. 还有我们通常说的drink，就是指酒，比如你请别人喝酒，就是let me buy you a drink. 而饮料则是beverage或者soft drink.

Season 2, Episode 6: New Haven Can Wait

绯闻女孩第二季第6集：天堂在别处

播出时间：美国时间10月13日

剧情简介：一直想去Brown的Serena在坐上Blair的飞机后改变了主意接受邀请去参观耶鲁。Dan发现自己发去耶鲁的申请信一封都没有寄出去。而Chuck被一群Skull and Bones的成员绑架了。Nate则和一个同校女生混在了一起。

【台词解析】

1.

Blair: Well, I'm a straight-"a" student, I am.

straight A: 全A生，全优生。这里Blair又强调了一下a的发音。

2.

Serena: Since the Dean handpicks the guests right after their interviews, I'm a shoo-in.

shoo in: a certain winner(稳操胜券)。shoo就是发出的“嘘”声，通常用来引起人或动物的注意力，并且把它们指向某个方向。所以shoo-in就有能控制住的意思，引申含义就是稳操胜券. e.g. Australia are shoo-in's for the cricket world cup.

3.

Serena: Yale is foroverachieving bookworms and preppies-- the Blairs of the world.

bookworm: 书呆子. nerd/geek/dork，这些字都代表一个人因为太专注某件事而看起来不太正常，如书呆子，而并非不聪明的呆。其中geek特指计算机方面特别有研究，特别专注的人。preppy: 学院派风格，可以表示大学预科生，也可以指学院派的打扮，GG里的那些服装(尤其是Blair和Nate)，就属于preppy风格。

4.

Lily: This one's a little edgier than I thought, but I like it.

edgy: Applied to books, music, or even haircuts which tend to challenge societal norms and reveal the dark side. Cutting edge.

Eleanor送来了两套衣服，其中一条黑色的裙子(就是最后Lily在家里穿，正好被Rufus看到的那套)，Lily用edgy来形容这条很sexy的裙子。edgy可以表示“前卫的，尖端的”，相当于cutting edgy, 就是“走在前沿的意思”。

e.g. California is on the cutting edge of trends that spread nationwide. 加利福尼亚正位于席卷全国的时尚的最前沿

5.

Gossip girl: Gossip girl's hardly a war buff, but I did cram fora quiz or two on the AmericanRevolution. The last time New Havenwasinvadedwas in 1779.

buff: One that is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about a subject 狂热爱好者，……迷

cram for: 临时抱佛脚

New Haven: Yale的所在地就是Connecticut 州New Haven县(本集的片名就叫做New Haven Can Wait，取自1978 的电影Heaven Can Wait)。这里的invasion指的就是1779年7月4日在New Haven发生的一场入侵战争（不要把它和独立日混淆了，《独立宣言》是1776年7月4日在费城正式通过的）

6.

Serena: The Dean made me realize that by being so set on Brown, I closed myself off to all otheroptions.

Blair: Well, that's a lovelyepiphany.

set: sure

I closed myself off to all other options: 我把自己的后路都堵死了，定型了

epiphany: (神的)显现; (对事物真意的)领悟；用在这里，就是“你终于顿悟到了”。

7.

Gossip girl: Spotted--little Jenny Humphrey off her high horseand in high demand.

high horse: 骑在高马上，引申含义就是目空一切，趾高气扬、自以为很了不起。get off your high horse就是不要摆架子的意思。

in demand: 有需要，销路好。整句话的意思是Jenny不但没有架子，而且很受欢迎。

8.

Blair: Do you know how rare a pair is from thatera? I had someone at Christie's put them on hold just in case.

put them on hold:保留，留货。Blair注意到院长的秘书很喜欢收集瓷猫，就让克里斯蒂拍卖行的人留了一套很罕见18世纪的瓷猫。

just in case:以防万一，万一有需要的话

9.

Nate: Where have you been?

Chuck: I got tied up.

Nate: Hey, look. You wouldn't want to leave tonight, would you? I mean, I think I am completely done withthis place.

Chuck: Did youstrikeout?

Nate: More like abruptly thrown out. People here know who I am. They know all the stuff about my Dad.

I got tied up: 我有事情脱不开身。

be done with: 我受够了

strike out: 棒球赛里就有strike out这个说法。如果一个击球手三次击球不中，他就strike out，也就是“三振出局”。所以，strike out的意思是，一件事做了几次也不成功。有个跟它意思相反的词组叫做pull it off, 意思是出人意料地做成了一件很困难的事情。

10.

Blair: You know on paper you're not Yale material. Could it be your face on "page six," your name everywhere? Face it, Serena. Yale needs to up their Q Rating, just like all the other schools, and they're gonna use girls like you to do it.

You’re not Yale material: 你不是读Yale的料

Q rating: 又叫做Q Score，用来衡量品牌、公司、名人或者电视剧的受欢迎程度的一种指标。不同于Nielsen(尼尔森)等指标，Q Score不但表示有多少人正在收看或者使用被调查的对象，还能反应人们对它的感受。

11.

Nate: Missed you last night(昨天你没来，没等到你).

Chuck: Did you?

Nate: Or was it your plan all along just to get me out of the way(把我支开)?

Chuck: You should be glad. Those guys were coming for you(冲着你来的). I saved your ass.

Nate: You didn't have to send them after Dan.

Chuck: Two birds, one stone(一石二鸟). Seemed good to me.

【文化背景】

1.

Blair: The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain.

这段模仿的是电影“窈窕淑女”(My Fair Lady)". 奥黛丽赫本在剧中扮演Eliza Doolittle是一个卖花姑娘，出生贫寒，后来遇到了语言学家Professor Higgins，他从最简单的发音开始，教她温文尔雅的用语。这段The Rain in Spain" 是电影中的一段歌曲，因为Eliza总是把其中的”a”发成”eye”而不是长音”a”，所以教授就一直纠正她这句歌词。具体可参见：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rain_in_Spain

另外在Gossip Girl season 1里有一集模仿了奥黛丽赫本另外一部电影Breakfast at Tiffany，而s02e01里Blair, Marcus(那个英国贵族), Chuck和Serena的外婆一起喝下午茶，谈到Blair最喜欢的电影是Breakfast at Tiffany's, Roman Holiday和Funny Face.

2.

Chuck: Yale has the Skull and Bones. My goal is to get inside their inner sanctum(圣地，密室).

Skull and Bones是由Yale里的精英学生组成的兄弟会，非常秘密，以至于没人知道这个组织究竟从事什么活动，而这个组织的成员，也从不透露这个组织的活动。George W. Bush和他老爸都曾经是这个组织的成员，小布在自己的自传里提到过”[In my] senior year I joined Skull and Bones, a secret society; so secret, I can't say anything more.”

此外，在2004年的美国总统大选中，民主党和共和党的候选人，都曾加入过这个兄弟会。所以说Skull and Bones是the secret elite society in US controls the world。而这也从另外一方面说明Yale是政治家的诞生地，所以在后面Chuck拍下那些学生寻欢作乐的照片，并要挟他们”You may be the future leaders of America. You're now under the control of Chuck Bass. I own you.”

3.

Rufus: And if everything works out, maybe you'll apply to the professional children's school for next semester.

Jenny: Like Vera Wang.

Professional Children's School(PCS)是纽约的一所私立高中，专门培养有艺术才华的少年。除了后面提到的Vera Wang, Sex and the City的女主角Sarah Jessica Parker也是从这个学校毕业的。另外我google这个单词的时候，发现释小龙也在那里读了四年高中。

PCS is a coeducational independent day school enrolling 200 students in grades 6-12. Founded over 90 years ago, PCS offers an academic, college preparatory education to students who are preparing for, or already pursuing, careers in the performing arts, entertainment or competitive sports, or who are drawn to a creative environment supportive of the arts.

Vera Wang: 著名的服装设计师，不管是在红毯上，还是明星婚礼上，都能看到她的衣服。连明星都以能穿上她的手工缝制婚纱而感到自豪（自然也是天价，上海香格里拉大酒店的The Perfect Wedding里可以定到）。Wang不能按中文发音读“王”，而是应该根据英语发音规则，念成bad里那个”a”的发音。顺便提另外一个品牌Anna Sui，虽然中文名是安娜苏，但是Sui应该念"swi:"，就是sweet前面两个音节。

4.

Blair: Trying to come up with an answer for the Dean's parlor game(室内游戏)?

Serena: You manipulated (耍计谋)your way in here?

Blair: I get what I want, Serena, just like I'm gonna win tonight. What's your answer? Oh, no, let me guess. Lauren Conrad.

Serena: Try George Sand.

Lauren Conrad是因出演电视剧The Hills而出名，日常生活中穿衣品味也不错，是很多八卦杂志拍摄的对象。这里Blair讽刺Serena知道的“名人”要么就是来自时尚圈，也没就是来自娱乐圈，不可能知道什么文化名人。

George Sand是19世纪的女作家，George Sand是她的笔名，那个时代女性的地位是十分卑微的，更别提女人写书这样的事情了。所以她就用男人的名字出书，并且大获成功。她不但起了个男人名字，还常常穿男装，风流韵事也很多（在那个不知道“离婚”是什么的年代里，她的红杏出墙还是很惊世骇俗的），总之，她就是一个很标新立异的新女性。不过我知道这个名字，不是因为她的书，而是因为她曾经和Chopin（肖邦）有过长达10年的同居生活，肖邦和她在一起的那段时光里，创作了很多著名的曲子。

另外在这段对话之后，也就是24:00-24:20之间，背景音乐是Time is running out, 这首曲子本来是Muse组合的一首摇滚歌曲，在这里被改编成小提琴演奏，我当时听到的时候着实激动了一下，因为这是我非常喜欢的一首歌，也曾经出现在电视剧Engourage里。

5.

Blair: Although I love Henry Ⅷ, I prefer Sir Thomas More. I think it's great that Pope Benedict canonized(封为圣徒) him when he did.

Serena: Oh, thank you. Don't you mean Pope Pius Ⅺ?

Prof: That's quite right, Miss, uh...

Serena: Van Der Woodsen.

Prof: Van der woodsen, is it?

Serena: Hi.

Prof: Most people don't know their popes in succession.

Serena: Oh.

Prof: Excuse me. Can I borrow you for a minute?

Blair: How do you even know that? You slept through history class last year.

Serena:I love "The Tudors". Henry Cavill is a total babe.

The Tudors是showtime出品的连续剧（中文名：都铎王朝），讲的就是亨利八世那个王朝的故事。整部片子，除了华丽，还是华丽，无论是演员还是服饰，也难怪Serena会喜欢看这样的历史剧了。

红线部分的人名都是那个时代的人物，也出现在The Tudors里面。Sir Thomas More是哲学家，还有后面那几个Pope，与亨利八世都有千丝万缕的关系。至于Serena喜欢的Henry Cavill, 他在里面扮演Charles Brandon(真的是很帅，难怪S说他是a total babe)，与亨利的妹妹结婚。

前段时间好莱坞出了个片子，叫做The Other Boleyn Girl, 由Natalie Portman和Scarlett Johansson主演，讲述了亨利八世和他的女人们之间的故事，包括Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn及她的妹妹Mary Boleyn.如果对这段历史感兴趣的，可以去看看这部电影。

6.

Not a word in a week, though I can't seem to escape her. Ever since my mother's show, Manhattan has turned into Serenaville.

这里的Serenaville应该是借用了另外一部美剧的名字”Smallville”，就是大名鼎鼎的超人Clark Kent成长的地方，这个美剧讲的就是他高中时代的故事。

Season 2, Episode 7: Chuck in Real Life

绯闻女孩第二季第7集：回到现实的Chuck

播出时间：美国时间10月20日

剧情简介：Vanessa勒索Blair，于是Blair为了报复就派出了Chuck去勾引Vanessa。Bart和Lily举办了盛大的暖屋派队，希望孩子们都表现的好一些，但是Serena却不打算扮乖。Dan和Jenny发现了Nate的一个秘密。

【台词解析】

1.

Serena: Bart, you're back early.

Bart: My last round of meetings wrapped upsonner than expected, rushing home to the family.

Chuck: How long's thislayover?

Bart: Didn't Lily tell you? I'm here for the longhaul. And just in time for ourhousewarmingpartytomorrow night.

wrap up: to finish

layover:临时滞留，中途下车

long haul:很长一段时间

housewarming party: 乔迁新居的聚会。顺便介绍几个常见的party: bachelor party告别单身聚会，男女都有，在结婚前一天举行，通常就是请一个stripper，或者直接去stripper club看表演，算是单身结束前的最后疯狂。baby shower送礼会，给怀孕的妈妈举办的，她的好朋友们会送很多礼物给她或者是她将来的孩子。surprise party通常都是跟生日聚会在一起搞的，就是瞒着寿星，一大群人躲在暗处，然后寿星一开门，一大群人蹦出来"surprise!!!" crash a party不请自入，没有请柬而擅自闯入一个聚会

2.

Bart: A weekendcurfewof 1:00 a.m.

Chuck: Is that Eastern or Pacific?

curfew: 晚上到家的时间，宵禁，来源于中世纪规定人们熄灯安睡的晚钟声

关于美国时间: 美国从东向西分别为东部时间(EST, Eastern Standard Time)、中部时间(CST)、山地时间(MST)、太平洋时间 (PST)、阿拉斯加时间(AKST))和夏威夷时间(HST)，按照“东早西晚”的规律，各递减一小时，那么Eastern Time的凌晨1点，就是Pacific Time的凌晨4点，所以Chuck才会问了这么一句，而纽约其实是东部时间。

看到很多官网上的预告时间会写 Monday 10/9c,这里的10就是东部时间10点，9就是中部时间9点，c代表central.而美国东部时间是GMT -5,背景时间是GMT +8，所以北京时间跟美国东部时间差了13个小时。

3.

Dan: Medicine cabinet, bedside table, underwear drawer? It's borderlinesolicitation, V. And…and, uh,creepy.

Vanessa: It wouldn't becreepyif you'd actually read theflyer.

Dan: You're on a mission to save Dutch Schultz'sfavoritespeakeasy.

borderline边界线，solicitation引发，诱惑。这里说到V把传单塞满Dan家里的各个角落，甚至是Dan的内衣抽屉里，Dan于是就说，你这样的行为，是会引发关于边境线的争端的。

creepy: 心里毛毛的，恐怖的，其他两个“恐怖”的讲法：scary是出于内心的恐惧，比creepy更吓人一点。恐怖片是scary movie, 在路上被人从背后突然拍了下，你说“吓到我了，吓死我了”，就是You scare me! spooky可以指那些毛骨悚然的事情，通常跟鬼怪幽灵联系在一起。比如说起你去鬼屋的经历，就可以说It's a spooky experience to visit the haunted house(注意鬼屋不是ghost house, 而是haunted house)."

Dutch Schultz: 纽约著名的黑帮首领，他的故事被改变成很多小说和电影

speakeasy: 地下酒吧

4.

Blair: That littletrollVanessa is working my last nerve.

Chuck: Not what I expected.

Blair: And then I realized this couldbenefitboth of us.

troll: One who posts a deliberately provocative message to a newsgroup or message board with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument 专指在论坛上发一些惹众怒的帖子的人，这里是说Vanessa惹事生非，讨人厌

working my last nerve:让我忍无可忍了，超出我的忍耐极限。get on my nerve相当于irritate, 激怒。后来C跟B又谈到了Vanessa, C说That girl has gotten under your skin. under your skin的意思就是引起某人的注意或者兴趣，让某人刻骨铭心。

5.

Blair: Dan stole your best friend. Now you can steal his.Seduceand destroy.

Chuck: What's in it for me?

Blair: The thrill of the impossible. The only person Vanessaloathesmore than me is you. It would be one for the ages. Maybe you're not up for it. If memory serves, you've had somemechanicalproblems.

Chuck: I'll just imagine she's you.

Gossip Girl: This just in...Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass placing awageronthe takedown of lonely boy's B.F.F.

What's in it for me: 我有什么好处?

thrill: excitement, pleasure; something shocking or unexpected, usually something good.

loath: 憎恨，厌恶

If memory serves: 如果我没记错的话……，至于后面B说的mechanical problem，应该是暗指前段时间Chuck在sex方面有障碍的那件事情（就是之前有一集，Chuck找了个日本空姐，但是却没有办法成功sex，因为他脑子里都想着B）

wager on: bet，打赌。筹码叫做stake, 加大筹码就是raise the stakes.

BFF: Best Friend Forever, 为了不与BF(boyfriend)混淆，所以就有了BFF这个说法。

6.

Blair: About last night's curfewflaunting?

Serena: I kind ofsnuckoutbefore she could corner me. Let them discipline the siblingthat actually deserves it.

Blair: You mean Chuck?

flaunt: show off. 这里指S故意穿的很sexy去pub，还在Bart面前炫耀的事情。curfew flaunting, 故意挑战宵禁政策的那件事情。

snuck out: sneak out的过去式，偷偷溜出来

corner: 本意是把某人逼到角落里，为难某人，使某人走投无路。这里是堵截的意思。

discipline the sibling:

给我的兄弟做规矩，这里的兄弟就是指Chuck啦。

7.

- Great turnout, V. I got a good feeling.

Vanessa: Let's hope so, Horace. Here come the sharks.

turnout: 聚集的人群，出席的人数；另外还可以指营业额，相当于business volume.

shark: 厉害的人，loan shark, 放高利贷的人

8.

Chuck: We're willing to work with you.

Vanessa: Thanks, but we're alreadypetitioning forlandmark status

Chuck: Why don't you have a bake salewhile you're at it? In the real world, we are your only hope.

petition for:请愿，后面一段里，酒吧的店主对Chuck说：After you left, your lawyer came back and showed us your proposal which did indeed include keeping everything as it is and lobbying for landmark status. lobby for,游说，跟petition for意思很接近。

bake sale: A bake sale is a fundraising activity where baked goods such as doughnuts(甜甜圈，上海有个专门买甜甜圈的店就叫“美仕唐纳滋”，英文名Mister Donut), cupcakes(纸杯蛋糕) and cookies, sometimes along with ethnic foods, are sold.

9.

Lily: If you have a problem with our rules, then just say so, but to simplydefyus...

S: Not you, him.

defy: 藐视，挑衅，违抗。我认识这个单词是因为Ugly Betty里曾经有一集，Betty去看音乐剧Wicked, 其中有一首很好听的歌就叫Defying Gravity(抵抗地心引力).

10.

Chuck: Deal's off.

Blair: What? what are you talking about?

Chuck: I'm out. I don't know what I was thinking about, pretending to buy some broken-down bar.

Blair: But you promised to seduce Vanessa.She needs to be destroyed.

deal's off和I'm out都表示我不干了，我退出了。

11.

-Rumorhas it he kept this place inboozeduring prohibition. So you like old Joe?

Chuck: Rumrunner, womanize,millionaire. He was my kind of guy.

- They all used to come here back in the day-- Gangsters, fighters, musicians, dangerous folks, no doubt. But they had style. Something tells me you'd fit right in.

Rumor has it…: 江湖传闻……

booze: 豪饮，也可以表示喝醉的意思。另外醉了还可以说I’m drunk./. 如果你坚持自己是清醒的话, 就是I am sober.还有一个跟酒醉有关的字叫 hangover, 中文翻成宿醉, 也就是指喝醉酒后隔天早上醒来头痛等等的症状。DWI (driving while intoxicated) 或者DUI (Driving under influence), 就是醉酒驾车的意思。

rumrunner酒类走私犯, womanizer玩女人

He was my kind of guy: 他跟我是一类人，臭味相投

fit in: 适应一个地方，融入一个团队

12.

Chuck: Did you read the proposal?

Bart: Why would I do that?

Chuck: Because... the tax break will be huge. Saving a landmark buys us amazing PR, engenders goodwill in the community, paving the way for future investment. Plus, it's a great place. Look, father, let me take you there and show you around. I'll make you a believer, I promise.

tax break: 减免税收（为了鼓励富人多参与慈善活动，政府通常会在税收上给予一定的优惠。比如你捐款10万元，那么你就可以少交10万的税）

PR: Public Relation, 公共关系，有时候也说publicity(公众形象)，后面Serena跟Dan谈起她妈妈的party说到”My mom hosted this big party. It as supposed to be about our new family,but it turns out, of course, it was for publicity.”

engenders goodwill: 树立善良亲民的形象

paving the way for: 为……铺路

I'll make you a believer: 我会让你相信这一切都是真的

13.

Blair: Bet's off.

Chuck: But the game's not over.

Blair: I'm calling it on account of boredom. You were right. Vanessa's not worth playing with.

Chuck: Maybe she is, maybe she isn't. Why the sudden change of heart?

Blair: Like I said, the whole thing is dull. Pursuing Vanessa is beneath us both.

Chuck: You think I'm going in for the kill. You're worried you're gonna have to go through with what you promised.

on account of: 因为

Why the sudden change of heart?: 这里Blair看到Chuck和Vanessa好像有点来真的了，就跑去跟C说“不赌了，不玩了”，C就问她“你为什么突然改主意了？”

beneath us both: 有失我们的身份，降低我们的水准

kill: (1)这里表示做个了断，跟后面那个go through with是一个意思，都表示结束，完成，把……进心到底。(2) to finish, to turn off，比如关灯，关电脑，关引擎等，都可以用kill. 后面Lily与Serena和好如初那段，Lily问Bart“你没让记者发表那篇文章吧”，说这句话的时候，Lily用的就是You killed the story, don’t you? (3) kill还可以表示很厉害，很在行的意思，比如一个人穿了一件很迷人的衣服，就叫做dress to kill，某个人在某方面很在行，那么他就是这方面的killer, 所以很讨女人喜欢的男人，就是lady killer.

14.

Lily: Eric, my darling, you are always honest with me. It isn't true, is it?

Eric: I know Serena's timing sucked, but she did pretty much raise me all those years. Oh... you just weren't here, you know?

Lily: I wasn't that bad.

Eric: Our ringtone for you was "since you been gone", used to sign our permissionslipsfrom school.

Lily: Well, there was a lot going on in my life.

I know Serena's timing sucked: 我知道Serena选的时机不对

since you been gone: Kelly Clarkson的成名曲，她曾经参加American Idol并因此而走红。

There was a lot going on in my life: 我生活中发生了很多事情，我也有很多烦恼。

15.

Dan: Well, like I said, I tried to help him, and then hebailed.

bail: to exit, leave , bounce, take off. 这里Dan想要帮助Nate，让N住到他们家，但是却被N拒绝了。

16.

Coming to rub my nose in it? Falling for your line of bull...

rub my nose in it: Chuck去酒吧找店主，店主说“干嘛，你故意过来示威/看我的落魄样子？”这里的rub my nose in it指戳某人的痛楚，揭某人的伤疤。s02e04的笔记里曾经用到Blair对Serena说过的一句话"Why do you think I rub it in Chuck's face every chance I get？",这句话里的rub it in one's face也有同样的意思。外中文说的“在我眼皮底下”，英文叫做do something right under my nose

fall for: 轻信，fall for somebody表示爱上某人

8.

9.

Agnes: By the way, I love your dress. I mean, I've beencovetingit all day.

coveting: 垂涎

10.

B: Serena knew how upset I was. She didn't want me to be alone, so she invited me tosleep over.

15.

Dan: I didn't invite her, but Serena and Blair tend to be a package deal.

package deal: 成套的，搭配在一起的(要么两者都要，要么两者都不要)。一个package，就是一整套东西，所以那种酒店、机票都包含在一起的旅游也可以叫做package deal.

16.

Dan: I can't believe that I allowed myself to be sucked in by Blair Waldorf.

suck in: 卷入，involved

17.

N: That guy Max that was here earlier? Is he a friend of yours?

【台词解析】

1.

Spotted atminh--Jenny Humphrey buying 16 yards oftulle. But since when does Eleanor Waldorf pay for her purchases with a penny jar? They say astitchin time saves nine. Will it save little J.?

tulle: 薄纱

penny jar: 装便士的瓶子，储蓄罐

a stitch in time saves nine:A little timely effort will prevent more work later. 直译的话就是，东西破了，缝的及时的话一针可能就足够了。也可以翻作“小洞不补，大洞吃苦”

2.

Agnes: We are going to blow them away.

Jenny: We better, otherwise I am so dead.

blow away: 倾倒某人

3.

Agnes: So what? After tonight you'll be so famous, you'll have ten Nate Archibalds.

Jenny: Yeah, except I only want the one.

Agnes: Okay, fine, then you have to make the move. That's the only way it's gonna work.

make the move: 那你就要主动一点了

4.

Dan: I just--i think they're up to something, man, with their closed doors and this private thing for Eleanor.

be up to something: 忙着做什么，注意up这种小词在口语中出现频率很高

5.

Dan: Good? No. It means she had the first one read it. He didn't like it. Neither did the second, and after the third, she probably just gave up. And why text before calling if you don't need to soften the blow?

text: 发短消息，当然也可以说send a message, 不过好像text更常用。

blow: 这里的blow是“打击”

6.

Emma: So Muffy Mcdonough's beenbraggingabouthow she's gonna lose her virginity 'cause she finally landed a date with thelacrossecaptain. They call him "the de-virginator."

Blair: Oh, my god. Stop your mouth from moving.

Emma: But now that I finally have the night away from mom and dad, we'll see who's first. I'm saying T.T.F.N.to my you know what.

Blair: Or maybe we'll see how your mom feels about your littleclearancesale, Lohan.

brag about: 吹嘘，夸夸其谈

de-virginator: 处女杀手，看到有一个字幕组翻成“辣手催花”，很强！de-这个词根表示“去除”的含义，比如detox(排毒), dehydrate(脱水), deodorization(除臭).

TTFN: Ta Ta For Now，再见；来源是Winnie the Pooh的老虎Tigger说的。这个词组还有一个意思是Time To Fuck Now, 所以Lohan在这里用了TTFN的双关含义。

you know what: 你知道的啦(这里指virginity), 中文里面我们常用“那个”表示一些不好意思说出口的单词，英文里就可以用这个词组。

clearance sale: 清仓大甩卖

7.

Blair: Little Emma--turns out she's less Holly Hobbieand more Jenna Jameson.

Serena: Can you speak plainly?

Blair: She's determined to become a woman on my watch, and if I don't help pimp her out, she's gonna character-assassinateme to the dean.

Holly Hobbie是一个卡通人物，我没看过这部电影，但是根据后文推测，这个Holly应该是一个很纯真的小姑娘。而后面的Jenna Jameson则是美国家喻户晓的色情明星。

Can you speak plainly?: 你能说的清楚点吗（说人话吧）

on my watch: 在我的眼皮底下

pimp: 拉皮条，这里的pimp her out是指“如果我不能把她推销出去的话”

character-assassinate: 诋毁

8.

Blair: Emma, I was thinking, where is the glory in bedding down with some dirty Manhattan hipster who's probably filming you on the nanny cam? You really want to make Muffy jealous? Have your flowerpluckedby one of the elite.

hipster: 一开始我以为是嬉皮士(hippy)，但其实不是，hipster是指那些hot and cool guy.A hipster is one who possesses tastes, social attitudes, and opinions deemed cool by the cool.

nanny cam: or nanny camera, is ahidden video camera that has been secretly installed within a common household object. A nanny cam is usually used to secretly monitor and record the activities of home caregivers, hence the name "Nanny Cam" although it can be used to clandestinely record any activity.

pluck the flower: 采花，这里就是lost the virginity的意思了。deflower也可以表示同样的意思，后面在酒吧里的那段，B问起Emma，Chuck回答She assaulted me, demanded I deflower her.

9.

Serena: I put out an A.P.B. on "gossip girl" with Emma's facebook picture on it. Every girl in Manhattan will be on the lookout.

A.P.B.: All Points Bulletin 法律上的一个用语，表示“全面通缉”

on the lookout: 大家会帮忙寻找的

10.

Emma: It says, "Muffy's muff gets stuffed." does that mean…

Blair: That little Muffy took her first steps as a woman? Afraid so.

Emma: She lost her virginity and her "gossip girl" cherry in the same night? But how did she get on "gossip girl"?

Chuck: It pays to have connections.

muff: Contrary to popular believe, the word muff is not associated with hair at all. Instead, the word "muff" is an inoffensive, slang word for a vagina. Emma的朋友叫做Muffy，而muff在俚语中又正好有vagina的意思，所以Muffy’s muff gets stuffed.这句话写的很妙，需要大家自己体会一下其中含义。

cherry : a widely used, somewhat impolite, slang term for a woman's hymen. 所以cherry在这里也不是“樱桃”了，它和lose the virginity是一个意思。

connection: 有关系，有门路

11.

Dan: Tonight my sister alienated everyone in her life. But tomorrow she's gonna be in "The New York Times." I just can't help but wonder if she's the one with all the guts in the family.

Serena: Hey, where is this coming from?

Dan: Nowhere. nowhere. I'm sorry. The Humphreys already spoiled your mom's night. I don't wanna spoil yours, too.

alienate: 疏远，隔离，把身边的人都推开

guts: 胆子，胆量，勇气

where is this coming from: 这股怨气哪里来的，你怎么会有这样的想法（很常用的一句话）

spoil: 扫兴，破坏，可以说spoil your fun或者spoil your night / party.

12.

What was your plan-- take my daughter clubbingand hope she'd plead your caseto the dean?

club: 这里做动词，就是我们说的“泡吧”

plead your case: 求情，律师辩护的时候会说plead guilty (认罪)或者plead no guilty(不认罪)

【文化背景】

1.

So, Serena, tell me about Karl Lagerfeld'sbirthday party.

墨镜，扎起的白发，黑色的西装，这是Karl的经典装束。他是著名的设计师，从Chole到Fendi，还有现在的Chanel，他也是一个时尚人士，曾经为了穿上Dior Homme的西装，不惜辛苦减肥。酷酷的Karl, 才华横溢的Karl, 大师级的Karl.

2.

Chuck: So Humbert Humbert's name is Serge Grodanz.

Humbert Humber是小说Lolita里的主人公，他十分迷恋12岁的女孩子Dolores Haze(就是Lolita)，具体的故事大家可以搜索一下。这里是配合剧情，因为Emma还是一个未成年的少女，Chuck就嘲讽带Emma走的那个Serge有Lolita情结。

3.

Serena: Look, do whatever you want, Blair, but please save Emma first.

Blair: Fine. We'll save little red riding hoodfrom the big bad wolf. But after that, it's bulldog, bulldog, rah, rah, rah!

Blair说这段话的时候很有气势，非常可爱。 little red riding hood就是小红帽，big bad wolf就是大灰狼，而那个rah rah rah就是英文的“汪汪汪”。

Season 2, Episode 10: Bonfire of the Vanity

绯闻女孩第二季第10集：虚荣的篝火

播出时间：美国时间11月10日

剧情简介：Blair想方设法让她的母亲远离Cyrus Rose。Jenny和Agnes住到了一起。Serena和Aaron相恋了，但是Aaron的一些事情可能会影响他们俩的关系。Dan和Chuck开战了，因为Dan对他的父亲Bart Bass很有兴趣。

【台词解析】

1.

Blair: Cyrus has been one of my mom's attorneys since the divorce. He asked her out when they first met, but she didn't wanna mix business with pleasure. Finally, hisamorousovertureswore her down, and she agreed to dinner. She's beensmittenever since.

amorous: 多情的，含情脉脉的，词根是拉丁语的amor，表示爱。

overture: 建议，行为

wear her down: wear down本身的含义表示“使某人筋疲力尽”，这里表示“难以抵挡对方的穷追猛打”。注意还有个词组叫做wear off, 表示消失，减弱。后面有一段Jenny在酒吧找到Agnes, Agnes说If my hangover ever wears off. (如果我的头疼好一点的话)

smitten: smite的过去分词(smite - smote - smitten). 对一个人的迷恋。后面Aaron的老爸见到Serena,他对S说You know, I think he(Aaron) is quite smitten with you.正是因为他的这句话，S大受鼓舞，就跑去Aaron的工作室找他了。

2.

Serena: Oh, uh, Aaron's amazing. He's been sending me these maps to the most beautiful places. The other day I ended up in a private room in thecloistersoverlooking the gardens.

Blair: Spare them the details, Serena. Hazel will kill herself fromenvy.

cloister: 修道院

Spare them the details: 细节就不用说了，注意spare的用法，表示省略，省下。这里提到的Hazel很好玩，前面B说要见她妈妈的男朋友，Hazel一脸怨妇状的说"Even moms have boyfriends, and I don't." 后面在B的生日会上，她又问起S和Aaron的事情，S说 "He's not exactly my boyfriend." Hazel马上就跟了一句You mean he's free? 这个时候Blair就说"Hazel Hazel, I can hear your desperation from the other room."

3.

Manager: Who do you imagine your client will be?

Jenny: Girls like us. Sophisticated girls with a bit ofedgewho can afford high-end product, and I know these girls and their style because I'm their peer, so that's what makes me unique as a designer.

Manager: Hmm. What's the name of the label?

edge: 这个以前讲过的，就是前卫的，新潮的

high-end: 高端

label: 品牌。名牌货就叫做label, 或者designer bag/cloths. 电影Sex and the City里的主题曲就叫做Labels or Love, Fergie唱的，很有意思的一首歌曲，有兴趣的可以看这里，我在里面还加了一个音频文件，专门介绍各种品牌的正确英文读法。

4.

Jenny: We haven't fully decided yet, clearly, but, uh, it really doesn't matter, 'cause we're just here to take the work to the next level.

take the work to the next level: 更上一层楼，更进一步，可以用来形容工作、关系等等方面。

5.

Agnes: I mean, if Mr. Smith here wants to represent us, then he should know who he's dealing with.

Jenny: Except Mr. Smith might get the wrong idea about our professionalism.

Agnes: Well, then cut thecrapand start acting professional

deal with: You have no idea what you’re dealing with. 你根本不知道事情到底是什么样子的，你根本不清楚状况。deal with是很常用的一个词组，大家可以学习一下。

get the wrong idea about: 误解，误会，口语里好像很少用misunderstanding.

cut the crap: 少废话，也可以说cut the bullshit或者cut it out.

6.

Jenny: Agnes, look at who's acting out yell again in another business meeting.

Agnes: You wanna see acting out?

Jenny: And yet another one,bites the dust, Agnes. What is the matter with you? This guy was our last chance.

Agnes: Okay, he totally overreacted. I mean, we're artists. We need to work with somebody who's not gonna befreaked out

act out: a psychological term meaning to perform an action to express (often subconscious) emotional conflicts. 人都有愤怒伤心的时候，正面的做法是去朋友倾诉，看心理医生等，但是负面的做法就叫做acting out(用一些实际行动来发泄，比如吸毒、暴力、性等)。

bite the dust: 大败

freak out: 发疯、胆怯、生气，都可以用这个词组。freak本身含义是怪胎，有特殊癖好的人，比如有洁癖的人就是clean freak, 有控制欲的就是control freak.

7.

Blair: I told you to put the roses on the table next to Cyrus' seat. Cary Grant always looked his best with white roses. Dorota, are youinsane?

Dorota: I don't know.

Blair: You used the everyday china. Cyrus will think we're just common upper middle class.

look his best with: 白玫瑰总是能把他衬的很好看，注意英文表达语序跟中文是反的。Gary Grant是电影演员。

insane: 发疯除了freak out, 还可以说crazy, nuts, out of mind. 这个insane是发疯的“最高境界”，本意是神志不清。注意Dorota的回答，“怎么了”这句话，她没有回答what, 或者what happened, 而是说I don’t know. 我觉得这也是中文跟英文思维不同的一个地方。越来越觉得Dorota可爱了，不知道大家有没有跟我一样的想法。

8.

Editor: If you're afraid of the man'swrath, we won't print your name, but if your reporting's as good as your fiction, I'll assign you another piece.

Dan: Look, I'm--I'm sorry, sir, but he's not an idiot. If I milk him for information, and you print it, he's--he's gonna know It came from me.

wrath: 愤怒

milk him for information: 这个milk用的非常好，像挤牛奶那样套取资料。另外还可以说dig up dirt，但是这里的dirt专门指绯闻或者负面的新闻，而information则比较中性，大家可以根据场合选择使用。

9.

Dan: Well, I'm, uh, I'm newly interested in the construction business. I thought your dad could show me theropes.

the ropes: 秘诀，规则，注意the ropes是固定搭配，必须一起使用。

10.

Cyrus: $18 a flower? That's absurd.

Blair: Yeah, yeah, it, uh, It is a bitsteep.

absurd和steep都表示不合理，贵的离谱的，所以除了expensive, 我们也可以多用用这两个单词。另外补充一点，cheap一般指价格便宜且质量很差的东西，真的“价廉物美”叫做it’s a bargain或者it’s a good deal.

11.

And that way, your mother and I will be out of your hair for the party.

out of your hair: stop annoying or bothering you.

12.

Serena: I think you were right. The wholemusething kindabackfired.

Blair: Well, I would say I told you so, but since I'm now 18, I'll refrain.

muse: 缪斯女神，或者说灵感女神。任何激发你灵感的人或者东西，都可以说是你的muse.

backfired: 事与愿违，这种表达也是属于非native speaker比较少会想到要去用的地道词汇，大家可以重点注意一下。

refrain: 我会克制我自己的。

13.

Cyrus: I sent my driver to dinner because I thought I'd be at the party ringing in your birthday.

Blair: You threw in the towel rather easily. I expected a harder fight.

throw in the towel: To quit in defeat. The phrase comes from boxing, in which a fighter indicates surrender by throwing a towel into the ring.

14.

Blair: Fine. You're agenius. You better be good to my mother, or I'll be coming for you.

这里B对Cyrus说“你最好对我妈妈好一点，否则我会找你算帐的”，这个算帐，就是I'll be coming for you. 粗鲁一点的版本是I'll hunt you down and kick your ass. (清楚的记得老友记里，Monica跟Chandler结婚前夕，Ross作为哥哥，很严肃的对Chandler说了这样一段话“无论追到天涯海角，我都会来找你算帐的”)

15.

Serena: Well, I can't believe Aaron is Cyrus' son.

Blair: Of course, you get the prince, and I get stuck with thetoad.

toad: 癞蛤蟆，这里她们的对话其实是用了“青蛙王子”里的比喻。想到前面S第一次看到Aaron的爸爸，她有点惊讶(因为父子两人真的是一个是青蛙，一个是王子)，而Aaron爸爸还很幽默的说You didn't catch the family resemblance?(你难道没看出我们两个长的很像吗)。

Season 2, Episode 11: The Magnificent Archibalds

绯闻女孩第二季第11集：“神奇”的Nate一家

播出时间：美国时间11月17日

剧情简介：感恩节，Blair对于自己老妈的新男友Cyrus破坏她家的传统感到非常不爽。Lily试图去帮助准备断绝父女关系的Jenny与她老爸调解矛盾……

【台词解析】

1.

Chuck: Archibald, I haven't seen you around here lately.

Nate: Why do you care?

Chuck: Oh, I don't. If you're not with the Humphreys anymore, obviously things are looking up, which is too bad. I kind of liked watching youslumit. I thought it would teach you who your real friends were.

Things are looking up: 情况在好转，越来越乐观

slum: 名词是贫民窟的意思，这里做动词用，过着贫民的生活

2.

Dan: So what are you doing for your holiday?

Vanessa: I decided topass onjoining my family at the Washoereservation, where they're helping to stage a protest. And my plan is to hole myself upin my studio, rent "Berlin Alexanderplatz" and eat a frozen Annie's organicturkeydinner.

pass on: 相当于skip, 不做什么事情了，不要什么东西了。比如说“甜点我就不要了”，就可以说I'll pass on dessert.

hole up: 想象一下动物冬眠(hibernate)时候躲在洞里的那个样子，与世隔绝，不接电话，不回短信。这个单词有点“宅在家里”的意思。

3.

Captain: My life in Dominica is...well, it's good. We moved some money offshore before I left, enough to get a house on the ocean. Weather's always perfect. People are nice.

Nate: I'm so happy you'reliving it upin the Caribbean while we'resquatting with no heat in New York.

Nate's Mom: Hear your father out, Nate

live it up: 纵情欢乐，过奢华的生活

squat: 蹲做着，缩成一团

Hear your father out: 仔细挺好了，注意加了介词out语气强了很多。

4.

Lily: I didn't know she was there until today. I called Serena. She didn't even know. Eric must have beensneakingher in at night.

sneak: 偷偷带进来，sneak out是偷偷溜出去的意思，出现频率很高的一个词组

5.

Rufus: If I want to see her, you're not gonna change my mind.

Lily: I'm not trying to. It's just that I haven't seen jenny yet, let me talk to her, see where her head is at.

see where her head is at: 听听她的想法，看看她脑子里都在想些什么

6.

Blair: A woman needs to be with a man who thinks of only her. Anything else is anonstarter. Tell him how you feel.

nonstarter: An idea, proposal, or candidate with no chance of being accepted or successful.这句话有点像中文说的“只有……才是真的，除此之外，其他都是空的，其他都是废话”

7.

Chuck: My plans for the evening gotheld upat customs.

Eric: Your dad just insinuated that Jonathan might be dating someone else. How and why would he know that?

hold up: 阻拦，耽搁了，这里是说因为感恩节的传统，我的计划就无法进行了。这个词组比较常用的一个句子是Sorry I was late, I was held up at the meeting.（不好意思，我因为开会被耽搁了，所以迟到了）

insinuated: 含沙射影，暗示。这里Bart超强，连Eric的男朋友Jonathan劈腿的事情都查出来了。

8.

Serena: Chuck, I want you word that you will not mention anything about the girl I used to be. I just got Aaron to myself, and if the one thing I have to do to keep it that wayis hide my recent history for a while, then that's what I'm gonna do.

get someone/something to myself: 专属，独享。这里对应的是Aaron对Serena说自己现在是one woman man(我现在就你一个女朋友)，另外还可以说date exclusively，这些词组都表示一对一的意思。to myself这个词组在这集里还出现过一次，就是Blair打电话给Serena,"I'm so glad to have the house to myself."(我很高兴家里就我一个人了)。

keep it that way: 保持这样的状态

9.

Serena: Well, you know, he's-- he's probably just jealous.

Aaron: Yeah. Yeah, I mean, he was talking a lot about Thanksgiving last year when you two were together, so...

Serena: Yeah. Well, I guess he's just not as over me as I thought he was.

He's no over me:他还没有忘记我，注意这种分手后的释怀，忘记，不用forget，用over.

10.

Blair: Don't youdareanswer that blackberry, Dorota.

Dorota: But it's your mother, and it's Thanksgiving

Blair: And we have nothing to be thankful for. This is the worst Thanksgiving of all time, and if we have to wander the upper east side likeoutcasts in a Jane Austen novel, so be it.

Dorota: Maybe we can go feed ducks at boatpondlike when you were little.

Blair: Fine. I'm not a monster. I won't deny the ducks their dinner. But if you look like you enjoy even one second of it, we're leaving.

我很喜欢这一段，所以全部摘录下来了。大家注意一下I won't deny the ducks their dinner.里deny的用法，“我不是恶魔，我不会不给他们吃饭的。”注意这段(22:10)里Dorota的给Eleanor设定的手机铃声是 I'm a slave for you, 很搞笑的。

11.

Serena: Oh. Uh, mom, have you shown Aaron your beautiful art collection?

Aaron: Oh, yeah. Um, was that a Jessica Craig-Martin I saw over there?

Lily: Why, yes, it is, Aaron. Good eye.

Good eye: 好眼力

12.

Oh, I missed you, too. I calldibson mashed potatoes.

dibs: A claim expressing priority over an object. 对……有优先权，类似中文的“你们不要跟我抢，我有优先权”。可以说I got dibs on that last piece of pizza, 也可以用在人的身上，I got dibs on that girl over there.

【文化背景】

1.

Serena: Aaron is coming to meet my family before thanksgiving dinner.

Blair: And how do you plan to introduce him? "Mom, you DVR 'Big Love', this is Aaron, and he's just like Bill Paxton, only younger and with scruff." I'm serious. The Serena I know would never want to share a guy she really liked with anyone else.

DVR: Digital Video Recorder

Big Love是HBO的一部电视剧,剧中男主角Bill Paxton是讲述的是摩门教徒(Mormon)，他和他年龄不同的三个妻子以及一大帮孩子们生活在一起。这里是讽刺Aaron那种“我虽然跟你谈恋爱，但是我们还是保持各自交往其他人的自由”的思想。

scruff:胡渣

2.

Blair: I'm so glad to have the house to myself. Cyrus took my mother to Jean-Georgesfor dinner. God knows why. Where's Warren Jeffs?

Serena: He's, um, making dinner for us, which would be completely romantic and amazing.

Jean Georges: 知名厨师，也是餐厅的名字，纽约有，上海的外滩三号也有，超贵超贵的。注意这个单词要用法语来念，所以Jean的发音有点像"让"，大家可以留意08:10那段。

Warren Jeffs was the leader of a controversial polygamist(一夫多妻制) sect known as theFundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints(FLDS Church) from 2002 to 2007.Jeffs' position in this organization was reportedly that of absolute ruler. 跟前面的Bill Paxton一样，这里Blair又嘲讽了一下Aaron的花花思想。

【台词解析】

1.

Vanessa: What's theemergency?

Jenny: Do you consider Muddy Watters blues or classic rock? I'm reorganizing my Dad's record collection bygenre

.genre: 类型，流派，曲风。要特别注意这个单词的读音，它是法语单词，所以不能根据英文的发音规则来念(音标无法显示，所以请大家自己看一下字典)。

2.

Okay, would you stop putting so much pressure on yourself? You're back home and you're still a great designer. The future will work itself out.

The future will work itself out: 船到桥头自然直

3.

Lily: Hey, thanks for offering to help out. It's really been fun.

Rufus: Well, when you just happened to mention my background in sound systems and lack ofvolunteerhours at the last P.T.A. meeting...I sort of got your signal.

P.T.A.: Parent-TeacherAssociation, P.T.A. meeting就是家长会。

I sort of got your signal: 我会意了，我听出了话外音，就是上海话说的“结翎子”

4.

Nate: Look, I know you guys are close, and I'm the last person who wants to come between friends. But believe me. Jenny doesn't care. I mean, she pretty muchblew me off.

come between friends: 夹在朋友中间

blow off: to ignore, to break up，有点“甩了我”的意思。

5.

Jenny: Um, nothing even happened between us, so...

Penelope: I wouldn'tbeat yourself upabout it. I mean, you had to know it wasdoomed from the start. He's upper east side, and you're, well...here.

beat up: incorrect, to be wronged in some way. I wouldn’t beat yourself up about it.意思就是“我不会认为你说的是错的，我觉得你是对的，你说的是实话”。

doom: 一切都是注定的，缘分天注定

6.

art:I just want you to know that I fired Andrew Tyler that private investigator who gathered all those files. No moresnooping. No more trying to control you and the kids.

snoop: 做动词表示调查，名词表示私家侦探，也就是PrivateInvestigator(PI).

7.

Aaron: I know Lexi can be a bit much.

erena: Blair Waldorf is my best friend. I can handle "much", but that felt personal.

much: 她可能有点过分，她说话有点恶毒

personal: 这里的意思是说“她完全就是针对我，她对我有意见”，personal就是私人恩怨，冲着某人来的，针对某人。

8.

Serena: Well, how long is the enforcer gonna be with this?

Aaron: She's staying with her folks through the holiday.

Serena: So is that Christmas Eve? Or are we talking New Year's Eve or--or maybe Boxing Day?

folks: parents

Boxing Day: a public holiday in the United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, as well as many other members of the Commonwealth of Nations and Greece. It is based on the tradition of giving gifts to the less fortunate members of society. It is usually celebrated on 26 December, the day after Christmas Day, however, its associated public holiday can be moved to the next weekday if 26 December is a Saturday or Sunday.

9.

Aaron: Come on. It would mean a lot to me if you gave her a chance, please?

Serena: Okay. Fine. But as long as we'reswapping favors here, it'd really make me feel much better about you spending all his time with her if you...I don't know,escorted me to my senior winter dance

Aaron: Fine. You got yourself a deal.

swap favors: 交换条件，互相帮助。注意你要回报别人的恩惠或者帮助的时候，就说return the favor.

escort: 陪伴女性参加舞会，但是有时候escort做名词的时候还有另外一个用法，就是表示prostitute(卖淫)的含义。

You got yourself a deal: 好吧，成交了。注意它跟It’s a deal(成交)的差别在于，用you做主语，更能体现说话者那种无可奈何，处于下风的口气，有点“你赢了”的感觉。

10.

Blair: So they're going to the dance?

Serena: Yeah, and then I found out she tends toextendherself to guyson a first date. We're friends. So shouldn't I, like, give him a heads-upor something?

Blair: Oh, absolutely. Guys hate to be caught off guardwith sex on the first date

extend herself to guys: 投怀送抱

give him a heads-up: 给他提个醒

off guard: 不警惕，不设防，这里Blair说的是反话，真正的意思是“哪个男人不喜欢第一次约会就上床的”

11.

Girl: Are you Chuck bass?

Chuck: Are you Blair's girl? Not you know, the roof has aspectacularview of the city.

Blair: Excuse me. He's taken

Not you know: 引起别人注意的一个短语，相当于中文的“你知道吗，听我说”

He' taken: 他有主了。有时候问别人这个位子可以坐吗，地道的英文就是Is the seat taken? 而不是问can I seat here.

12.

Lexi: Like tonight's the night.

Dan: What, uh, what are you--what are you talking about?

Lexi: Well, Aaron likes to play things a little close to thevest, took a little arm-twisting, but I finally found out that Serena gave him the green lightfor tonight.

tonight is the night: 这是很常用的短语，表示恋人间的第一次sex，所以这个晚上是THE night. 大家在很多电影里都能听到这样的对白，某男晚上要去约会，他的哥们就会对他说，hey man, tonight is the night, huh?

play things close to the vest: keep something secret, to hold something close so no one else can see it. 口风很紧，不露声色

arm-twisting: 也可以说twist the arm, 给某人施加压力，迫使某人做某事。想象一下把你的手臂被别人拧到身后去，那种感觉是很难受的，这个短语要表达的就是这种被迫的感觉。

gave him the green light: 直译当然是开绿灯啦，也就是同意的意思

13.

Jenny: Vanessa is ten times the person you will ever be. And that is why you hate her so much.

Hazel: It's kinda easy for you to talk bigwhen you're hiding out in Brooklyn.

Vanessa is ten times the person you will ever be: V要比你好十倍。这种说法中文里也常说，所以学习一下地道的英文表述。

talk big: 说大话。整句话的意思是“说得倒是轻松，站着说话不腰疼”

绯闻女孩第二季第13集：Bart的葬礼

播出时间：美国时间12月8日

剧情简介：一场突如其来的悲剧给了上东区的这群孩子以及父母们重重一击。

【台词解析】

Cece: Come. Eat. You need your strength.

Serena: I'm not hungry.

Eric: I'm saving room for later.

Cece: In times of great uncertainty, it's even more important that we continue our dailyrituals.

Serena: You haven't eaten a Cheerio since you've been here.

I'm saving room for later: 我留着肚子吃后面的东西呢

Cheerio: 一种早餐吃的谷物的品牌

2.

Tyler: Mycondolences.

Chuck: Skip thesympathy. This is business. My father met with you right before he died. I want to know what you told him that night.

Tyler: I worked for Mr. Bass, not you, and what I have--you're not the only party interested.

Chuck: I'm about to become very rich.

Tyler: Yeah,congrats.

My condolences: 深表哀悼。话说昨天下午开会中，突然接到好友电话，告知追求失败的噩耗，我当时脱口而出这句my condolences.

Skip the sympathy: 收起你的同情心吧

congrats: congratulations的缩写

3.

Jenny: How you holding up?

Eric: Holding.

How you holding up:你还好吧，还撑的住吧。当别人处在困境或悲痛中，就可以用这句话来问候对方。注意Eric的回答holding, 就表示“还好，正熬着，正扛着呢”。

4.

Nate: We should have just driven him to the door and dropped him off on the steps.

Blair: No one should see him like this. He needs to walk it off

walk off: 用走路来消除(痛苦等)，这里是说用走路来醒酒，让自己清醒

5.

Lily: Thank you, Dan, for being here for Serena and for our whole family.

Dan: Of course. I can't imagine it any other way.

Lily: You are a true gentleman. Your father raised you kids right.

Dan: Thank you.

Cece: Dear, they want to know about thewreaths, whether we should...

Your father raised you kids right:你爸爸真是教子有方

wreath: 花圈

6.

Chuck: What the hell are you doing here?!

Dan: Excuse me?

Blair: He's just upset andloaded. What are you doing at my father's funeral?

loaded: 简单的说，就是喝醉了，详细说明如下：the act of excessive consumption of alcoholic beverage which fuels the primitive barbaric wild side of any human being. Usually loaded people result in the following - stumbling around, say stupid things, and likes to go streaking(裸奔), do animal calls(疯狂打电话), and chase the opposite sex.

关于喝醉，还有如下说法：drunk, tanked, wasted, inebriated, hammered, intoxicated, 最后两个程度最深，表示醉的已经很厉害了。

7.

Rufus: You're back soon. I wouldn't have thought Bart Bass would be one to have a short funeral.

Dan: Chuck threw me out before it even started 'cause according to him, uh, my father "killed" his father.

Rufus: What? Why would he say that?

Dan: Well, I don't know, Dad. I mean, do you have any wild guesses, any thoughts?

throw me out: 把我轰出来了，语气弱一点可以用kick me out(把我赶出来了)

wild guess: 胡乱猜想。别人问你“真的吗，真的是这样？”你回答“我瞎猜的，随便乱说的”，英文就是It’s a wild guess.

8.

Dan: Did you, uh, did you think of going today?

Rufus: To the funeral? Nah.

Dan: Why not? I mean, you're one of Lily's oldest friends.

Rufus: No, I know. It's just better this way.

It's just better this way: 这样就可以了，就这样吧。

9.

Nate: You're really sweet with him.

Blair: Me? Sweet? No.

Nate: No, you are. I mean, worrying about him, offering him food. It's downright maternal.

Blair: I'm not maternal. I've just been spending too much time with Cyrus, and I'm turning Jewish.

It's downright maternal: downright相当于absolutely, maternal表示母性的意思。这里Nate说Blair“母性大爆发”，有时候中文里我们也会说“母爱泛滥”，这里的母爱英文对应的单词就是maternal. 大家可以注意一下后面Blair的回答，我觉得蛮有趣的，调侃了Cyrus一下。

10.

Cece: Excuse me, may I please steal my daughter for a moment?

Lily: Mother, if you want to talk, now is not the time.

Cece: What does chuck know?

Lily: Did you not hear what I just said? He knows something about you and Rufus. You should find out what.

Lily: Mother, I just came from burying my husband. I do not have the time, inclination or frankly, the mental capacity to go head-to-head with chuck.

steal: 这个单词在聚会场景里经常听到，如果你要把某人从正在谈话的人群里拉出来，就可以用这个句型。类似的还有Can you guys excuse us for a moment? / May I borrow her? / Can I have a word with you?(这句话通常是对方单独一个人的时候使用)

now is not the (good) time: 现在不是好时机(通常潜台词是“我现在心情不好，不要打扰我”)

have the inclination to: 兴致，倾向

go head-to-head with: 正面冲突

11.

Eric: I just lost my stepfather. I don't want to lose my brother, too.

Chuck: When are you going to get it? We are not related.

We are not related: 我们没有血缘关系

12.

Cece: Andrew Tyler was just here.

Lily: Bart's P.I.? Don't tell me he was here to pay his respects.

Cece: No, he wanted me to pay him. He knows about the hospital in France.

P.I.: Private Investigator, 私家侦探

pay his respect: 这里是哀悼死者的意思，通常也说pay last respect to someone. 这里的私家侦探掌握了Lily的秘密，所以借此要勒索他们，所以后面Cece说的pay是付钱的意思，这里用了pay的两个用法，大家可以注意一下。

13.

Lily: You have to stop him.

Cece: Do I? I'm not sure.

Lily: You can't be serious. Well, after all this time, now you decide that the right thing to do is to tell the truth?

Cece: The truth is out. That changes everything, doesn't it?

Lily: No, it doesn't have to.

Cece: There could be no better time for a cleanslate.

Lily: There could be no worse time, mother. This is the last thing I want to come out. Pay him.

The truth is out: 这里的“泄漏”用out就可以搞定了，很简洁的说法。后面出现的come out，表示真相大白，用人做主语的话，就表示坦白的意思。此外，come out还有一个特殊含义表示“出柜”，就是某人坦白自己是gay的身份的话，英文就是he came out.

clean slate: an opportunity to start over withoutprejudice

14.

Cece: What are you going to do about the fact that you're in love with Rufus Humphrey?

Lily: Well, I'm not sure I'm gonna do anything, At least not right away.

Cece: So you are in love with him? I was fishing.

Lily: Oh. Well, you caught me. Considering thecircumstances, I have tried with all of my strength to fight it. It is a curse I do not wish on my worst enemy. But I love Rufus.

Serena: So that's why chuck was so upset.

Lily: Serena. Let me explain

Serena: Don't bother. You love Rufus. You always have.

I was fishing: 我诈你的。fish做动词，表示to catch or try to catch fish, 引申含义就是To seek something in a sly or indirect way.

You caught me: 被你看穿了。

You always have: 那句经典的”I love you. Always have, always will.” 很多台词里都引用过。

15.

Serena: Hey, you're gonna be fighting me for that neck pillow when your chin is on your chest and there'sdroolall over your shirt.

Aaron: How did you know that I drool?

drool: 可作名词也可作动词，流口水的意思。中文里当你馋涎某件东西的时候，我们会说“看着都流口水了”，英文里就是drool over something. 口水还可以说saliva和water, 不过saliva是医学用语，相当于“唾液”。英文中说something is mouth-watering, 意思就是让人垂涎三尺的意思。

补充几个生理动作的英文：

流鼻涕是I have a running nose. 或者动词snivel. 名词的鼻涕叫做nasalmucus, nasal是鼻子的，mucus则是黏液。snot也表示鼻涕，但是就是有点粗鲁，你说“你的鼻涕流下来了”，英文就是your snot is dripping down.

挖鼻子叫做pick nose, 鼻屎就是booger. 挖耳朵既可以说pick ear, 也可以用scratch your ear, 耳屎呢就是earwax. 挖耳朵的东西叫做earpick, 不过老外通常用棉花棒，那个叫做cotton swab或者Q-tip, 后者是一个著名的牌子。如果你要跟老外说挖耳朵的东西，建议你说后面那两个。

打喷嚏叫做sneeze, 擤鼻涕叫做blow your nose或者wipe your nose.

【文化背景】

1.

More towers than Trump, more bucks than Bloomberg, Bart bass definitely made his mark on Manhattan

美国的两个大富翁，Trump就是Donald Trump了，做房地产起家，所以这边说Bart拥有的大楼比Trump还要多。看过或者听说过真人秀Apprentice的人，应该都会知道Trump，在节目里他就是Boss，而那些候选人就是他下属公司未来可能的领导人。至于另外一位Michael Rubens Bloomberg则是美国传媒界的大亨，同时也是现任的纽约市市长。

2.

Lily: Charles, please. You need to be with your family.

Chuck: My family? I don't have a family.

Gossip Girl: If the lord is ourshepherd, it looks like one of his lambs has lost his way, or maybe make that a black sheep.

Gossip Girl这段话里提到的shepherd, lamb, black sheep都和圣经有关，引经据典，可以写上一大堆，但这里尽量说的简单一点，主要资料来源于http://hi.baidu.com/lxfinter/blog/item/0e91479b81081fb2c9eaf484.html

首先，在希伯来（古代以色列）民族中，人民的生活主要依靠畜牧业。因此，羊是《圣经》中地位最为重要的一种动物。说到绵羊，我们总能联想起那种温顺的形象，而山羊看上去就没那么好惹，所以在新约里，山羊goat代表不听话的人，绵羊sheep代表软弱听话的人。black sheep则是害群之马的意思。

但是在旧约里，goat是祭祀用品。祭祀时候用两只羊，一只献给耶和华，另一只则放生，在旷野中任其自生自灭，带走人们的罪。所以英文有个单词scapegoat(替罪羊), scape就是escape的变体，表示逃走的羊，指的就是被放生的那只羊。因为它带走了人们的罪，于是它就是“替罪羊”。当然，goat本身也可以表示“替罪羊”的意思。

旧约中，摩西因为要带领以色列人离开埃及而受到法老的百般阻碍。上帝因此发怒，要杀死所有在埃及出生的男婴。以色列人杀了一只lamb，把血涂在门楣上，以便让上帝区别对待，因而得以幸免。这一天后来就成为逾越节（Passover）。lamb后来经常被用来表示耶稣，因为他像逾越节的羔羊一样心甘情愿地为拯救人类被杀害。因此“like a lamb”，“as meek as a lamb”，“like a lamb to the slaughter”这些成语都表达逆来顺受、任人宰割的意思。

如果你跟我一样，看到这里，联想起The Silence of the Lambs(沉默的羔羊)这部电影，然后疑惑为什么要起这样名字，那么你可以看一下这个链接http://fifid.com/subject/1805133/ （中间部分，有一段讲“为什么是羔羊”），可能会对你有帮助。

3.

Eleanor: I was thinking something in a jacket, very Y.S.L.

Jenny: Okay, Mick and Bianca, 1971. Great reference.

已故时装大师Yves Saint Laurent和他的品牌YSL,相信大家都不陌生了。他把pantsuit(配长裤的套装)改良成Le Smoking, 中文叫做“吸烟装”，那种长长的西服，配窄腿裤。他N年前就推出过了，也不知道是为了哀悼他的去世，还是因为时尚界的复古风，今年又重新流行了吸烟装，不单单是那些一线品牌，连普通商场都随处可见类似的衣服。

而Mick Jagger是the rolling stone的主唱，Bianca是他妻子，他俩结婚时穿的都是YSL的衣服，Bianca当时是真空上阵，穿着YSL的白色西装，一反传统，震惊四座。

*娇蛮Queen B的真正含义

热播《绯闻女孩》中有个“辣手”的角色Blair Cornelia Waldorf，在她们的那个圈子里呼风唤雨，兴风作浪，好不威风，俨然女王的架势，因而她也有一个广为流传的绰号叫做Queen B。

也许有人会误认为Queen B中的B特指Blair这个角色，但却并非如此。你知道Queen B这个词的真正含义嘛？

Queen B一词来自Queen Bee，就是指蜂巢中的女王蜂，也叫“母蜂”、“蜂后”。是蜜蜂群体中唯一能正常产卵的雌性蜂。

由“女王蜂”引申到人际关系中，便产生了新的意思，Queen Bee在日常口语中就表示“处于权力地位的女性”，并简写成Queen B，尤其指称那些高中、大学里一批女生的头头。

Queen B不一定是一群女生中最漂亮的，但她信心满满，自我感觉极端良好，也觉得别人都膜拜她。她对于一切重要的流言蜚语都了若指掌，周围的人都会效仿她的梳妆打扮。她交最帅的男朋友，参加所有的派对。周围人在背地里都对她指指戳戳恨之入骨，可暗地里又巴不得成为她的好朋友。

Season 2, Episode 14: In The Realm of the Basses

绯闻女孩第二季第14集：Bass家的天下

播出时间：2009年1月6日（美国时间）

剧情简介：Chuck摇摇晃晃地在一幢高楼楼顶走着，说着他的名言：“我是Chuck Bass。”不远处站着惊恐万分的Blair……

【台词解析】

1.

Gossip Girl: Blair Waldorf has been spotted making inroads at the colony club. With high school nearing its end, has queen b. found a new social ladder to climb?

The Colony Club was the first social club established in New York City by, and for, women.It was formed in 1903 by Florence Jaffray Harriman, wife of J. Borden Harriman. She modeled it on clubs for prominent men.

2.

Penelope: Nelly? I think you need your prescription checked. Do you realize who you're talking to?

Hazel: And I don't see you holding my double tall no foam dry cap with two splendas.

关于咖啡的一点知识：

double就是指double shot(打两抢，含双份espresso的分量)

各种杯型：short是小杯，tall是中杯，grande是大杯，venti是超大杯，在星巴克买咖啡不说small / medium / large，他们用的就是tall / grande / venti的叫法

cap: 就是cappuccino的简称，标准的cap里espresso, 牛奶，奶泡各占1/3. 而dry cap是奶泡多，牛奶少，咖啡浓过奶香，适合重口味的人；wet cap的奶泡少，牛奶多。wet cap的味道有点接近latte，都是牛奶的味道盖过咖啡味道。(但是为什么她这里说no foam，我也很confuse，希望知道的同学能告诉我)

splenda: 著名的甜蜜素品牌，它的特别之处在于它一旦被身体吸收，不会分解成碳水化合物，解决了人体需要糖份又因为担心糖会分解成过多碳水化合物而造成对身体的负担的两难境地。大家熟悉的diet coke里选用的就是这种甜蜜素。另外在咖啡店里我们常看到的几个品牌的糖分别是：白色的普通蔗糖（通常是Domino牌的）、粉色的Sweet'N Low和蓝色的Equal's.

3.

Jack: Blair, you came to greet us.

Blair: Not you, Jack. Chuck. You said you found him.

Jack: In Bangkok. he was staying at our hotel there. i mean, you hear the term "den of iniquity", but until you really see it...

den of iniquity: A place of immoral behavior, usually of a sexual type. The origin of the term can be traced back to the New Testament of the Bible. In both Gospel of Mark and Matthew, Jesus condemns those who have been using the sacred temple as a marketplace, proclaiming that they have "made it a den of thieves." To this day, writers use the word "den" to mean a place whereiniquitousactivities are carried out.

4.

Dan: Hey, Dad. Um, you know, Serena was... she was...we're busted.

bust: 做坏事被逮到了。这里是Dan跟Serena在家里make out(亲热)，被Rufus撞见了，所以Dan就说we're busted.

5.

Jenny: Dad, Serena's, like, the best thing that's ever happened to Dan. I mean, she's smart, she's funny, and she's, like, nine levels hotter than him.

Dan: Thank you.But she's right.

Jenny: Come on. Get onboard. Dan, Serena. Dan, Serena. Whoo!

get onboard: 赞同我，加入我这一队

6.

Blair: The point is, enough of this high school nonsense. Nelly or no Nelly, who cares? I have enough going on already.

I have enough going on already: 我已经够烦的了

7.

Serea: Blair, it's Chuck. He's somewhere blowing off steam. It's what he does. He'll show up in a couple days minus a few million brain cells and some liver tissue.

blow off steam: 发挥多余的精力。后面那句是暗示他喝很多酒，所以脑细胞跟肝脏都有损伤。

8.

Penelope: Daddy? I need you to call headmistress Queller. There's a girl bullying me.

bully: 欺负，经常用在学校里，指恃强凌弱

9.

Chuck: That's the problem with an open invitation. You can't keep out the hoi polloi.

Dan: What do you know about my Dad and Lily?

Chuck: So the cat's out of the bag.

open invitation: 没有正式的邀请函，客人可以自己决定到达的时间，也不限制客人的身份。如果有人对你说Please drop by again. You have our open invitation. 意思是下次欢迎你随时 造访，不必预约。另外有个open bar，通常指那些婚礼、宴会上的吧台服务，酒水是免费的。用

在酒吧里，open bar表示买一张门票就可以无限畅饮的意思。

hoi polloi: 民众，大众

(let) the cat's out of the bag: 揭露一个秘密，尤其是很重要，很关键的秘密

Season 2, Episode 15: Gone with the Will

绯闻女孩第二季第15集：随愿而逝

2.

Jenny: Hey, Eric! Okay, guess what? Jonathan and I decided that tonight we are gonna have an Edith Head film festival.

Edith Head(October 28, 1897 – October 24, 1981) was an American costume designer who had a long career in Hollywood that garnered eight Academy Awards—more than any other woman in history.她与Hitchcock合作过很多次，所以Jonathan会说Same difference,一样啦，没差别。

3.

Serena: Dan, hey.

4.

Nelly: We should at least tell Blair.

Isabel: We can't. Blair's with chuck again.

Isabel: But his dad just died.

Penelope: Yeah, like a month ago. Afraid we're on our own for this one, ladies.

we're on our own:这次我们只能靠自己了，还有个词组act alone跟它很像，表示单独行动。

aria: 咏叹调

Der Holle Rache kocht in meinem herze:我的心沸腾着地狱的复仇(the vengeance of hell boils in my heart,红色部分为德文，这里是这些德文单词的英文对照翻译),又叫做“仇恨的火焰”，它是花腔女高音咏叹调上数一数二的名曲。特别之处就如Eric所说的，是所有歌剧中音调最高的(他用了kick-ass来形容)，展现了夜后(the queen of the night)的愤怒与复仇决心。这段曲子出现在21:10分左右，当时Eric正在跟Rufus讲解一些歌剧知识。

这一集里多次提到魔笛(The Magic Flute)，而片头一开始Gossip Girl的旁边说到"True love and betrayal,revenge and more revenge,a heroine with an impossible goal...if only mozart had lived on the upper east side."这些内容都和歌剧本身的情节有关联，有兴趣的话可以去google一些相关的内容。

绯闻女孩第二季第20集：小Jenny的余生

播出时间：美国时间2009年3月30日

剧情简介：Jenny的16岁生日并不甜蜜如斯。Serena为她举办了一个小小的生日派对，可Poppy Lifton却把派对搞成了一场庞大的社交活动，于是一发不可收拾……

【台词解析】

1.

Serena: What was that?

Blair: Dorota has a cold. Dorota,I told you not to use your handkerchief at the table. It's disgusting.

Serena: Oh, it sounded like a car horn. It must have been on my end.

It must have been on my end: 声音一定是我这边的。当时 S跟B在通电话，B骗S说自己在家里，但其实她是在大街上并差点被车撞到，司机按了喇叭，所以S问B那个是什么声音，B撒谎赖在Dorota身上，S就说那可能是我听错了，大概是我这里的喇叭声。

2.

Rufus: Look at us. Everything's working out. You're in Yale and Jenny might actually make it to 16.

Dan: That was a little touch-and-go there for a while.

Jenny: Yes, but I still have 24 hours to mess up, so...

make it to 16: 总算平平安安到16岁了, make it有好不容易做成某事的意思，比如你长跑跑到终点，就可以说I made it.

touch-and-go: Dangerous and uncertain in nature or outcome; precarious; delicate. 危险的，不确定的，现在还说不准。Dan这句话就是针对Rufus那句“总算到16岁了”来说的，因为因为当时离Jenny 16岁生日还差一天。

mess up: to spoil something, or do something badly, 搞砸，做坏事

3.

4.

Poppy: Well, it sounds like everything's exactly the same as it was last time I saw you. Makes catching up easier, though, right?

Serena: Yeah. I'm throwing a party this weekend.

Poppy: Really? Oh, what's the occasion? Not that you need one.

catch up: To bring (another) up to date; brief. 叙旧。比如你和你的朋友很久未见，重新遇上了，你们有很多话要说，有很多互相的情况要汇报，那么你就可以说so much to catch up.

Chuck: So if you'll excuse me...

Eric: Does this feel like a sitcom to anybody else?

Dan: It feels like a reality show.

Chuck: Good. So I can vote you off.

So if you'll excuse me: 抱歉我要离开了，这句话通常用在你和一群人正在聊天或者聚会的时候，你中途有事要离开，就可以说这句话。

vote you off: 我可以把你选出局了。Eric说大家一起吃早餐的画面像情景喜剧(sitcom), Dan说更像是真人秀(reality show), 于是Chuck接着他的话说如果是那样，我就选淘汰你。

in a rut: in a type of boring habitual behavior, 一成不变。rut是车辙，就是轮胎滚过的痕迹。这个词组来源于马车的轮子在泥路上留下车辙，后来的车子行驶就容易多了，只要沿着这条车辙继续前进就可以了，由此必须那些一成不变的习惯或者行为。

Chuck: The "just friends" speech? I got it, too. They're making fools of us.

have the nerve to: 居然有胆子……

They’re making fools of us: 他们把我们当傻瓜耍

9.

Jenny: Uh, do you know if Vanessa's coming?

Dan: Yeah, she and Nate broke up last night. It seems like she's taking it pretty hard, but, uh, she wants to come to the party, said she'd call.

take it pretty hard: 她不好过，你不大能接受这个事实

10.

Jenny: First of all, you need to stop watching so many old sitcoms on Hulu, and second, Dad on the upper east side? I mean, there's no way. No, we can't live up here. We're...

Dan: Humphreys.

Jenny: Damn straight.

Hulu: 一个视频网站，由FOX和NBC共同投资，目前只对美国观众提供热门剧集的在线观看。Hulu的名字来源于中文，第一取“葫芦”之意，因为在古代葫芦都是用来装珍贵的东西的，所谓的“宝葫芦”；其二，来自中文“互录”，意思是可以互动的记录。网址是http://www.hulu.com/

no way: impossible

live up: 快乐的生活

damn straight: 相当于damn right, 完全正确

11.

Jenny: What are you doing here?

Penelope: Once I heard Poppy Lifton was coming to your party, I canceled mine. In the last 20 minutes, I've been hit on by two Bronfman’s and a gay designer. It was so worth it.

Hazel: Kudos on rising from the social grave.

hit on: 被搭讪

Bronfman’s: Bronfman家族，原来是Seagram酒业大王，后收购了好莱坞的Universal制片公司和Interscope唱片公司。1998年又收购了欧洲PolyGram唱片公司，成为唱片业的最大巨头。2000年6月，Bronfman家族将Seagram公司售与法国的Vivendi，换股合组Vivendi-Universal.

It was so worth it: 真是太值了

kudos: personal fame or glory. 注意kudos是一个单词，是单数。

12.

Jenny: Eric, I don't get it. Why would Serena hijack my birthday?

It's just physical: 只是肉体关系

take your word for it: 我相信你的话

14.

Vanessa: They have been in there for a while. What if all we did is push 'em closer together?

drive a wedge: 破坏

15.

reach out: attempt to communicate. e.g. I try to reach out to my daughter but she doesn't want to have anything to do with me.

*性感的XOXO什么意思？

《绯闻女孩》中最著名的台词，莫过于旁白中性感神秘的“XOXO, Gossip girl.”听过这么多遍之后，你知道这个“XOXO”的真正含义和来历是什么吗？

【误解一】是某著名的洋酒品牌么？

当年某洋酒的广告做得铺天盖地深入人心，但显然这里的XO跟我们熟知的洋酒无关。顺带一说，其实和洋酒有关的那个XO也并非品牌，而是指干邑的等级为extra old，封存至少6年，甚至高达20年的好酒。

【误解二】是make out的意思么？

有所关联，但依然相去甚远。这是一个非常普遍的误解，以至于XOXO在很多场合的误用。它的真正意义到底是什么呢？

【正确解释】XOXO

XOXO代表了“拥抱和亲吻”，或者“爱并亲吻”。

【来历】谁是亲吻，谁是拥抱？

·小众观点：X是拥抱，O是亲吻

坚持这种说法的人认为，X像拥抱时交叉的双臂，而O像亲吻时撅起的嘴唇。

·普遍认识：X是亲吻，O是拥抱

这是牛津英语辞典收录的解释。有语言学界的权威指出，从鸟瞰的视角看，O正是两个人张开双臂拥抱对方，而X就像两个人嘴碰嘴。

Rufus: That's Allan Levy, the artcollector. He's the guy who put a Monet in his bathroom. I…Oh, no.

Serena: I kind of did marry him. We got carried away. I talked to Cyrus. He said it doesn't count.

Blair: Let me get this straight. He goads you into making the ultimate commitment, and now he can't stick it out through a whole dinner?

Gabrielle: Listen, these contracts will be done in one week. And after that, I promise you I will tell her everything. Trust me. The money she'll make, it'll cushion the blow.

Serena: As long as it's not physical, then I... I guess I can live with it.

Rufus: Good point.

fall flat (on one’s face): to fail to achieve a desired effect达不到预期效果, 完全失败

It must be quite the story: 肯定大有文章，肯定有猛料

10.

Lily: Well, this is just the sort of thing that some of us at bass have been pushing for. Doing well by doing good.

Nate: But why would Poppy stay in town after what she did?

Nate: No, no, no. Look, you had your shot, and you blew it. So why start toying with her again? I mean, if you want her, then man up and tell her. Otherwise you gotta cut her loose. You gotta cut her loose, and you gotta do it for real this time, man, because I want her.

shot: 机会。试一下，英文就是give a shot, 相当于give a try.

blow it: 搞砸了

man up: 做个男人，有点男人的样子

Poppy: Oh, um, I'm sorry. Just because of the timecrunch, I'm afraid I'm only gonna be able to accept cash.

get you in: 让你入伙，让你加入。get in这种词组，看英文很容易理解中文意思，但是真的要等我们用英文表达出这个中文意思的时候，却常常会“卡壳”，所以建议大家平时多留意一下这类小词。

wire transfer: 电汇

restorative: 有助恢复元气的。我觉得restorative这种单词是比较难记也比较难用的，这类单词的特点就是表达方式和中文完全不一样。比如同样一句话，中文说“睡了一个午觉，让我神清气爽，体力也恢复了”，于是英文我们就会按照中文习惯翻成”a nap makes me…”, 但其实英文用一个restorative nap就搞定了。earshot: 听力所及之范围，out of earshot就表示听不见的意思

hack me to pieces: 把我大卸八块，hack就是砍的意思。

suffocate: 使窒息，这里是说用枕头把我闷死。

6.

Cece: Your sister was rebellious and ungrateful for my love, and look where she ended up.

Lily: From where I'm sitting, it doesn't look so bad. I don't want you meddling with my family or with my love life anymore. I want you out, now.

look where she ends up: 看看她的下场是怎么样的

make out: 出人头地，有成就

9.

Blair: This is low, even for you. I can't believe you did this, Chuck. You know how important prom is to me!

low: 低级的，整句话的意思就是“即使对你来说，这也太低级了吧”

sabotage: 暗中破坏

1.

Serena: Okay, can you just take my mind off of me? Talk about anything.

Blair: Did he say it like...

Serena: Anything but--

Blair: "I love her"?"

Serena: I totally set myself up for that one.

take my mind off: 不去想，转移注意力。这里S和B在聊gossip girl, S的意思是拜托你，我们换个话题吧。

I totally set myself up for that one: set up表示“陷害，设圈套”，这句话的意思是“都是我自找的”，有点像中文的“自作孽”。前面S要B换个话题，于是B又那Chuck说“I love you”这件事情来烦S，所以S说自己绕来绕去，还是没的安宁。

2.

Nate: Good, good. I start myinternship at the mayor's office next week.

Vanessa: So that's the big news.

Nate: As for today ,I got my mom and my grandpa to agree to sit together, so that's something.

internship: 实习

so that's something: 那还不错，那还挺了不起

3.

Cyrus: We were talking on the way over here about what a wonderful couple you two make. So we decided you should take theplungeRufus: Well, it's not exactly-- uh, we're just enjoying the journey.

Lily: Well, apparently at one point we had a destination, but that no longer seems to be the case. like us. Dating at our age is not enough, marry before it's too late.

take the plunge:to marry someone. plunge本意是跳入，冒险做某事，这个词组除了结婚，还可以用来指你经过很长一段时间犹豫后，最终决定做某事。

we're just enjoying the journey: 享受过程

that no longer seems to be the case: 现在已经不是那样了，情况已经不同了

4.

Serena: Chuck, get the room quiet for me.

Chuck: I'm way ahead of you.

way ahead of you: 早就想到，在你说之前我就想过了。这句话用在你们两人想同一件事情或者想说同一句，但是对方比你快一步说出来，你就可以说way ahead of you, 意思是我只是说的比你晚，但其实我也想到了。

5.

Serena: Can I actually borrow you for a minute? I'd like you to help me dig deeper.

Jenny: Nothing in here's good enough to beat the new girl... except for this.

Eric: No way.

borrow you for a minute: 借一步说话

No way: 这里不是“没门”的意思了，这里表示“不是吧，不会吧”，惊讶的意思

a movie instead.

6.

Rufus: You going to Nate's party?

Dan: Uh, no. I thought Vanessa and I wouldhit

hit a movie: 看电影，hit是一个很百搭的单词，有点”do”的意思，比较随意的讲法。洗澡也可以说hit a shower, 出发、上路就是hit the road

7.

Isabelle: It's not midnight.

Jenny: My gossip's toojuicy to wait.

juicy: interesting and exciting，形容八卦很吸引人

8.

Gossip girl: Serena Van der Woodsen just couldn't leave well enough alone. Since she had to find out the truth about me, I'm going to tell you the truth about everyone. Every gossip bomb I've got is about to drop, and if you've got a problem withthat, take it upwith her.

leave alone: leave unchanged or undisturbed or refrain from taking，放手，相当于let it go

get a problem with: 很口语化的讲法，表示有意见，有问题

take up: deal with, 和她去交涉，找她算帐

9.

Nate: Oh, my god.

Dan: Oh, that makes sense.

Nate: Wait. They're a team.

Blair: Team of what?

that makes sense:这就说的通了，这就有道理了。当时Nate, Serena, Dan都在酒吧里等gossip girl, 结果等来的是Blair, Dan说这句话的意思就是Blair是最有可能是gossip girl的人。makes sense在否定句里(it doesn’t make any sense)用的也很多，意思是某句话“毫无道理，一点都说不通”。

Team of what: “什么团队”这句话让我们说的话很容易会翻成”what team”, 但其实应该用team of what, 这个就是很典型的中文和英文思维差异。

10.

Serena: Drink’s on me.

something is on me: 我请客，我做东，比如你请客晚餐，就可以说dinner’s on me.

Jane Austen大家都认识吧？英国著名女作家简?奥斯丁，《傲慢与偏见》、《理智与情感》的作者，她小说中的女主角通常都是完美结局，但她本人却终身未嫁。

Anais Nin则是兼具西班牙、巴西、丹麦血统的美国传奇女作家。她与著名作家亨利?米勒及其妻子琼有着暧昧关系，又在当时大都市国际艺术圈和社交圈的收放自如、飘忽神秘，其大胆开放的性意识更是让她被冠以下半身写作先驱代表的头衔。

deep end 困境

19.

I got a littlecarried away. And what happens in summer stays in summer, right?

carried away 失控

柒觉得“what happens in XXX stays in XXX”是个相当好用的句子。这季SYTYCD里头评委Mary就说到自己打肉毒素的事儿，后面一集主持人Cat拿她开玩笑的时候她就说“I don't know. What happens on the show stays on the show.”一下子就撇清干系了，哈哈。

20.

You'd think I'dgone off the rails again.

go off the rails 出轨，出差错

这里S说的出轨跟我们平时说的感情出轨还不一样，应该是指脱离正规生活轨道去放纵的意思。想到了三毛作词，齐豫潘越云的那首《轨外》。

胆小的孩子怕老师

那么怕怕成逃亡的小兵锁进都是书的墙壁

一定不肯不肯

拿绿色的制服

跟人比一比

哪家的孩子不上学

只有你自己自己最了解

出轨的日子

没年没月没有儿童节小小的双手

怎么用力也解不开

是个坏孩子的死结

咳，从世俗的GG扯到脱俗的三毛，柒实在佩服自己的跳跃思维……Anyway，第三季第一集很有点承上启下的味道，每个人都处在命运转机的十字路口，很点题。但是柒还是想说一句，B和C恋爱起来实在不是一般的BT啊~~~柒还是比较喜欢某些个虽然没有恋爱但是比哪对儿都有爱的那型。Got it?

【台词解析】

1.

see off 送行

2.

bridge and tunnel = Bridge and Tunnel People 郊区人，土包子

Bridge and Tunnel People是一个俚语，指纽约市郊地区的人，包括长岛、温彻斯特和新泽西。他们入侵曼哈顿，打扮不入世。比较势利的曼哈顿人就会鄙视这些土包子，觉得自己高人一等。所以B才说到周末就别去夜总会了，这种时候把夜总会里全被郊区的土包子给抢占了。

10.

Rah rah, sisboom bah. Georgina's pulled acoup d'état.

13.

A college degree is just anaccessory, like amalawi baby or apoodle.

Chuck这句话很经典，说像咱这种富家子弟咧，文凭不过是个摆设，就跟你领养个非洲的小孩抱个哈巴狗差不多。够尖锐！

23.

fill your daddy's shoes就是子承父业的意思。

24.

So you came here and brought Carter Baizen as yourwingman.

wingman 左右手，爪牙

其实wingman常常用于酒吧泡妞的情况。比方说你见着一个姑娘特漂亮，可惜她身边有个不咋滴的女性朋友很黏人，于是你就找了你一哥们负责搞定那个朋友，你就能跟你的梦中情人聊聊了。那个帮忙的哥们就是wingman了。

25.Oh,speak of the devil.

speak of the devil 说曹操曹操到。

rain check出自露天举行的棒球比赛。如果比赛过程中天空突然下起倾盆大雨，（咳……）比赛不得不取消的时候，观众可以领取“雨票”，或用原票存根作为“雨票”(rain check)，等待球赛改期举行时可凭之入场。久而久之，日常生活中也能用“雨票”，意思就是“不巧不能赴约，改天再约”。

dead ringer 酷似某人的人或者很像某物的东西

这个词儿说来很复杂，ringer是指代替应该参赛的马匹上场的赛马，联系前面的的dead难道是死马的意思？这里的dead其实解释成千真万确。所以dead ringer就表示丝毫不差的复制品咯。

然后72 Bowie是指David Bowie，和Shakira一样都是著名歌手，不过前者是男滴……他俩很像么？要看怎么打扮了……看下图。

20.

When it comes to an eye for an eye, Chuck's a man of the cloth.

an eye for an eye 以牙还牙，以眼还眼

King Arthur就是亚瑟王，Guinevere则是传说中的亚瑟的王后。这里在说的是一部吸血鬼版亚瑟王的电影，真有喜感。如果你对亚瑟王的故事感兴趣，可以看看《梅林传奇》（好吧，柒上面的转台还真没转错……）下面是电影版的两位~~柒都忘了是凯拉?奈特莉演的了喂~~~

keep an eye out for 留心，长个心眼儿 to watch carefully for someone or something to appear

wrap one's head around something 努力去理解某事

Josephine Baker是美籍著名黑人艳舞女郎、女演员，于1906年在美国圣路易市出生，原名Freda Josephine Carson，家境并不富裕，自小就在夜店当侍女。她父亲是一名夜店鼓手，就是这样遗传了一点音乐天赋给她，而她本身具有的独特的美国南方黑人性格，使她对音乐与舞蹈都有一种与生俱来的才能。

in a row 连着来，连续的

17.

It's like "casablanca" meets "showgirls."

- Leave it to georgina to start a mutant strain.

5.

Do you happen to know what the Swahili is for "mind your own beeswax"?

18.

It's like my own "project runway" challenge.

19.

It means that someone's a big fat liar.

big fat liar 谎话精

这里的fat不是胖的意思哦，而是加深big的程度，“big, fat”是在口语中非常非常多见的说法。

20.

Working my butt off, but happy.

work butt off 忙得不可开交 to work very hard

柒觉得翻译成忙得七荤八素很合适哦。

21.

Ooh, ooh, love child.

love child并不是表示什么爱的结晶，而是专指非婚生的孩子。

22.

Might have to move the honeymoon suite to the heartbreak hotel.

heartbreak hotel是猫王的名曲啦，Gossip Girl继续引用歌名儿。

23.

He takes the chinatown bus.

chinatown bus是从1998年开始在美国东海岸华人圈中兴起的一种私营客运服务，感觉上吧，就是一长途客运站似的。

这集《绯闻女孩》片头的黑白电影就是仿的这部电影啦，B惊醒之时念叨的我向来都是谁谁谁啥的，说的都是影片的主演名儿。

《彗星美人》展示了舞台生活的内幕和一位无名姑娘如何登上明星宝座的经历。在以名媛赛拉?西顿丝命名的戏剧奖的颁奖仪式上，新秀艾娃力克众女星，获得戏后桂冠。大家向她热烈祝贺。在一片赞美声中，跟艾娃关系甚密切的一些朋友回忆起过去的情景……

八个月以前，立志当演员的艾娃经常光顾剧场后台，一次恰巧被剧作家理查兹的妻子卡伦发现，她见艾娃面目清秀，聪明怜俐，倒也是一个演戏人材，于是介绍给红得发紫的大明星玛戈。艾娃成了玛戈的跟班，终日伺候这位任性恣情的名角。

与此同时，艾娃潜心学艺，进步很快。这被玛戈发现，不免起了戒心。尽管这样，艾娃锲而不舍，一方面极力巴结大名鼎鼎的剧评家艾德逊，以取得他的支持，另方面设法接近码戈的情人——导演比尔，请他多加指点，艾娃崭露头角，招致码戈的妒忌，后者大闹了一常卡伦对玛戈的任性颇为反感，决定教训她一下。有次乘汽车去赏雪旅行时，卡伦故意将玛戈坐车的汽油全部放掉，结果玛戈不能按时赶到剧场演出，只好请人代演。艾娃趁此机会登台，使出浑身的解数，一举成功。她不以美貌招徕，而是以真挚自然的演技赢得广大观众的欢迎。对照之下，浮华自负的玛戈和卖弄色相的卡丝维尔就相形见绌了……，终于，在以名媛赛拉?西顿丝命名的戏剧奖比赛中，艾娃荣获桂冠。颁奖仪式结束后，艾娃回到住处，发现了一个美丽的少女正用憧憬羡慕的目光等着她，一如八个月前的她自己。

Not dating olivia is the nail in patrick's culturally relevant coffin.

这句话很有讽刺意味，说不跟Olivia约会就是给Patrick事业的棺材上钉钉子，从此他就没翻身的机会了。因为之前他和Olivia是演吸血鬼题材电影来着，而吸血鬼在传说中白天都是睡在棺材里，要是给他们棺材上加了钉，出不了棺材吸不了人血也就快不久于人世了。

7.

You look queen-tastic.

queen-tastic = queen + fantastic 很女王

8.

I'm pretty sure that's green screen.

green screen 特效

因为做电影特效都是在后面扯一块绿屏以便后期加上特效画面，所以green screen就是特效的代名词儿了。顺便说blue screen是什么的代名词呢？蓝屏电脑报错么？蓝瓶的钙，好喝的钙~~（just kidding~~：D）

- Ryan totally lost his mojo after Reese got with Jake.

- Don't "jake" me, serena.

mojo 【俚语】 魔力，魔咒，个人魅力

一直在美剧里听到mojo这个词儿，（甜甜就跟Angela她爹说过……咳）这个词来自非洲（确定不是中文过去的嘛？发音很像啊……），本意是魔咒、魔力，引申为个人魅力。

这里牵涉到一出娱乐圈真实的三角了，《律政俏佳人》那个Reese Witherspoon一起跟Ryan Phillippe谈过的，现在跟《断背山》Jake Gyllenhaal在一起来着。

Don't "jake" me意思是“别跟我Jake这Jake那的。”这算不算名词作动词？

7.

你战胜了自我。

9.

feel free 请便

see sb. out 送出门

这句话口气挺大小姐的：“走好不送啊！”其实就是下逐客令了。

18.

it's a remake of "leaving las vegas." miley cyrus is already signed on to play the elisabeth shue role. They must've seen her on that pole at the t.C.A.S.

*N句美剧流行口语教你说再见

1.

Goodbye ['gud'bai] 再见。最熟悉、最经典的道别方式。相对比较正式，在提交辞呈或恋人分手时常用。

【美剧实例】《豪斯医生》第一季第17集

Cameron: You’re abrasive and rude, but I figured everything you do, you do it to help people.But I was wrong.You do it because it’s right.There are only two ways I can deal with things.One is in my control.That’s to leave.Goodbye,House.

【来历】来自中世纪英语中的短语“God be with ye”，意思是“上帝与你同在”，在中世纪后期，缩略成了“Godbyye”或“God.B.W.ye”。

【演变】Bye bye. Bye. [bai] 是Goodbye的口语化，较为常用。还有wave goodbye表示挥别，kiss goodbye表示吻别。

2.

See you later. 回见。口语中常用的道别方式，并不表示真的像字面上那样“一会儿再见”。

【美剧实例】《绝望主妇》第一季第10集

GABRIELLE: I wanted to match the shoes to the dress. This is, uh, Sarah, my shopping buddy. We like to hit the boutiques together.

LYNETTE: Okay. Well, you gals, um, shop your little hearts out. See you later.

【演变】Later. See you. 其中See you在实际语言流通中往往发生语音变化，从而成为See ya；在网上更是根据读音经常写成cya。使用频率很高。

3.

Peace out. 走好。常用的俚语道别方式。可伴以相应手势。

【来历】peace在60年代逐渐成为道别语。而out则来自于双向无线电通信结束通话时的标准用语“over and out”。

【手势】右手握拳双击胸口，然后打出胜利“V”手势。

4.

Take care. 保重。带有关照意味的道别方式。原本应该用于挂掉电话之前，但逐渐在关系亲密的人之间使用频繁。

【美剧实例】《识骨寻踪》第一季第6集

Tessa: I’m going to grab a cab.

Booth: Oh, no. Okay, hold on. Sorry, I apologize. Here. I’m going to make it up to you, I promise okay? Ice cream later? Take care.

5.

Tootles. 再见。女性或名人较为常用，男生如果使用的话可能会被有些人误以为是gay。

【电影实例】《歌舞青春》

Sharpay: You are so dedicated. Just like me. I hope you come watch me in the musical. Promise? Toodles!

Troy: Toodles.

【来历】一说有可能是来自于"toot"这个名词，表示小号吹出来的声音，是舞会最后一支舞曲的终结；还有说源自于“I'm off 'to the loo'.”——“我上厕所去了。”

6.

So Long. 源自印度语

【使用频率】★★★★

【备注】据说印度语原词salaam是再见的意思，英国士兵从东印度返回日不落的时候也带回了这个词，但他们当然发音不准确啦，就说成了so long，久而久之so long便成了常用的道别用辞。

7.

Farewell. 源自挪威语

【使用频率】★★★

【备注】从维金人一支中发展出的英语，原词是挪威语“far vell”，意思是“一路顺风”。在英语中多用于正式场合，或者长时间的别离，或永别。

8.

Cheerio. 源自英国英语

【使用频率】★★

9.

Ciao. 源自意大利语

【使用频率】★★★★★

【美剧实例】《越狱》第一季第21集

Bellick: You. You know, he's...

Abruzzi: Ciao, bello.

【备注】Ciao bello是“goodbye boyfriend”的意思。Ciao在口语中非常常用。书写的时候，有时也会写成Chow，所以Chow并不一定表示招呼一个姓周的中国人哦。

10.

Adios. 源自西班牙语

【使用频率】★★★

【美剧实例】《老友记》第三季第12集

Monica: Would you please go?

Jeannine: Night Mon. Night Julio.

Julio: (to Jeannine) Adios.

【备注】在美国南方靠近墨西哥的地区应该会使用频率比较高。

11.

Adieu. 源自法语

【使用频率】★★★

【备注】常常用于表示永别的场合。

12.

Auf wiedersehen. 源自德语

【使用频率】★★

13.

Sayonara. 源自日语

【使用频率】★★

【美剧实例】《超人新冒险》第一季第19集

PERRY: I'd try some of that Japanese delicacy -- blowfish sushi.

JIMMY: The kind that can kill you?

PERRY: Sayonara.

【备注】牵涉到寿司忍者之类日本文化的东西时偶尔用之，同时也带有永别的意味。美国人最后那个ra的音节要比中国人说得翘舌音明显得多。

14.

So Long. Farewell. Auf wiedersehen. Adieu. 熟悉么？就是《音乐之声》中那首著名的插曲。

So Long. Farewell.

(All children)

There's a sad sort of clanging

From the clock in the hall

And the bells in the steeple, too

And up in the nursery

An absurd little bird

Is popping out to say coo-coo

(Coo-coo, coo-coo)

(Brigitta, Gretel, Marta) (Fredrick, Leisel, Kurt, Louisa)

coo-coo Regretfully they tell us

coo-coo But firmly they compel us

to say goodnight

coo-coo

(All)

To you

(Children)

So long, farewell

Auf Wiedersehen, goodnight

(Marta)

I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

(Children)

So long, farewell

Auf Wiedersehen, adieu

(Fredrick)

Adieu, adieu

To you and you and you

(Children)

So long, farewell

Au revoir, Auf Weidersehen

(Leisel)

I'd like to stay

And taste my first champagne

(talking to the captain) yes?

(Captain) no!

(children)

So long, farewell

Auf Weidersehen, goodbye

(Kurt)

I leave and heave

A sigh and say goodbye

Goodbye

(Brigitta)

I'm glad to go

I cannot tell a lie

(Louisa)

I flit, I float

I fleetly flee, I fly

(Gretel)

The sun has gone

To bed and so must I

(Children)So long, farewell

Auf Weidersehen, goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

(guests)

Goodbye

Lewinskys就是克林顿丑闻的女主角莱温斯基啦，B这句话说得还真恶毒，因为S和一个有妇之夫的政客搞暧昧来着~~

give the glad eye 抛媚眼，色迷迷地看着 look seductively at someone

buzzkill 扫兴的人，泼冷水的人

8.

So you want to go, just the two of us, for old times' sake?

9.

What are you guys doing for cabaret tonight?

cabaret 酒店表演

10.

"Bitches of Eastwick" is a terrible idea. It's like "Heathers," but with witches.

这里大概是在嘲讽ABC台的新剧Eastwick《东镇女巫》吧？好吧反正人家也被砍了。Heathers则是1989年的《希德姊妹帮》，薇诺娜·赖德主演滴。

11.

I'm looking to expand my horizons.

expand my horizons 拓展视野，接受新鲜事物

12.

I haven't felt this way since i was 13, with jude law in "alfie."

18.

Did you bozos have a threesome or something?

bozo【俚语】家伙

19.

20.

platinum record on the wall, who's the most talented of us all?

直接改编自Snow White白雪公主的台词，“Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of us all?”把魔镜换成了白金唱片，爆笑。

21.

You may never have heard of Cyrus Rose before, but Lady Gaga certainly has. Back when she was still at Tisch, they used to play cards together. Who do you think "Poker Face" is about?

B说Lady Gaga当年和她继父学校里头的时候还一起打麻将扑克的。还说Poker Face因此而来……柒摔倒了……

22.

If you go down the rabbit hole, it's going to take moreit's going to take more than Blair Waldorf and your army of minions to drag you back out.

go down the rabbit hole 钻入兔子洞

兔子洞的典故出自《爱丽丝梦游奇境》，引申意思是涉足混乱嘈杂的境地。此处暗指涉足毒品，因为有人分析说《爱丽丝梦游奇境》其实是一出吸食毒品后引发的幻觉。囧

片名释义：Treasure of Serena Madre <—— The Treasure of the Sierra Madre

这部冒险片经典作的故事背景是二十年代的墨西哥。汉弗莱．博加特和蒂姆．霍尔特这两名美国流浪汉辛苦工作却被骗工资，偶然从老人沃尔特．休斯顿口中听到马德岭群山中有金矿，乃伙同一起前往淘金。

经历千山万水，他们终于找到金沙，但猖獗的土匪也闻风而至，三人为了占有这些金沙而彼此玩弄计谋，但结果谁也没捞到好处。“人性的贪婪”是全片的刻画重点，看着男子汉大丈夫因为逐利而变成卑鄙小人，实在令人感叹。

这句话经常听到，原来是这个意思吼。

看字面就是跑着撞上了……

18.

Cece's heart pumps secrets and gin.

gin 琴酒（难得柒也认得个酒名儿，柯南造化啊……）

这句话也真是非常形象，说Cece的心脏里搏动的不是血液而是秘密和烈酒。当然这只是比喻的说法，其实心脏里就只有血液嘛。（咳咳~~一本正经地。）

19.

be mastered 2 两面派

20.

He'll be a political joke, and you'll be a punch line.

punch line 妙语

政治人物要是出了什么绯闻的话呢，绝对是会被那些脱口秀主持人拿来开刷的，而绯闻女主角自然就成为了那些政治笑话中作为噱头的连珠妙语，旁人听了哄堂，对当事人来说可真不是滋味的。

21.

get egged 被扔鸡蛋

22.

You told Kira she had to watch her back.

感恩节大餐因为有一超大火鸡，总是吃不掉剩下很多，所以后面几天都要吃那些leftover解决。咱过春节也经常这样吧？Joey的最爱啊。

片名释义：The Debarted <—— The Departed

The Departed还是大家很熟的电影吧？就是翻拍自《无间道》的那个《无间行者》嘛，据说翻拍得不咋滴。

波士顿南部的马萨诸塞州黑社会势力极为猖獗，其中最大的团伙要数弗兰克（杰克?尼科尔森 Jack Nicholson 饰）执掌的爱尔兰黑帮。警方为了剿灭他们，决定派警校毕业生比利（莱昂纳多?迪卡普里奥 Leonardo DiCaprio 饰）潜伏其中做卧底。警官的冷嘲热讽，让曾有过底层生活的比利甚为不爽，他曾希望做堂堂正正的警察，但是在强压之下也只得服从命令，在经过烧杀抢掠的洗礼后，他赢得了弗兰克的信任。与此同时，同是毕业生的科林（马特?达蒙 Matt Damon饰）因为缉私有功，获得了上级的嘉奖，并且正在跟心仪女友筹备婚事。而实际上，他是弗兰克安插到警队的一枚棋子，两人勾结牟取私利。警匪先后发现存在内鬼，一场猫鼠博弈由此展开……

【台词解析】

1.

Sometimes, reality comes crashing into us. Other times, it dawns on us slowly, despite our best efforts to ignore it.

crash into 闯入

dawn on 渐渐开始明白

绯闻女孩这两句话主要是说明领悟现实的两种状况，一个是猛地一下顿悟，而另一种则是渐渐地领悟，用的这两个词挺好。dawn on本意是太阳渐渐升起天越来越亮的意思。

2.

I can't be resting on my laurels.

resting on my laurels 安于现状，固步自封 relying on previous accolades or successes

laurels就是月桂枝，是荣誉与成就的象征。不知道跟阿波罗达芙妮那个神话故事有没有关系，反正是罗马时期用来编制皇冠的。resting on my laurels跟我们说的躺在功劳簿上差不多。

3.

It slipped my mind.

slip one's mind 忘记了

从脑海里滑落了，很形象吧？

4.

That she's holed up with some married politician, acting like some sort of teenage Rielle Hunter?

9.

Spotted--an "it" girl with an "it" bag.

"it" girl 物质女孩 a charming, sexy young woman who receives intense media coverage unrelated or disproportional to personal achievements

"it" girl是指性感迷人的年轻女士，或是经常现身主流媒体及终日参加聚会的女性。她们的个人成就并不是其受到的媒体关注的主要原因。对某人一个it girl 的称谓常常是暂时性的，她们中发展势头良好的会最终成为真正意味上的明星，其他人的将在流行过后淡出公众视野。这个词来源于1927年时英国小说及剧作家 Elinor Glyn，用来形容好莱坞片《It》中性感、品位及性格的女主角Clara Bow。1927年，英国小说家Elinor Glyn用“It Girl”形容了一个好莱坞史上首个打性感牌的女星Clara Bow，其25岁时就已拍了48部电影，是默片时代的顶梁柱明星之一，在电影《It》中她以轻巧的Flapper Look成为1920年代大众的模仿形象。

10.

I've never seen one in the flesh.

in the flesh 真容 Alive; In person; present.

比方我们去看某明星演唱会，有时候就会很激动的说：“我从来没见过活的刘德华诶！”虽然会产生很强大的歧义，不过大概意思也能够理解，就是看到真人，而不是通过媒体。

11.

O.M.G.! Twins!

O.M.G = oh my god 我的天哪！

一般也只有GG里面的女孩子才会说成OMG，缩写还是在网上书面用得比较多一点。

12.

Well, great minds shop alike.

great minds shop alike 从Great minds think alike演变而来，英雄所见略同。

这里翻译成“英雄所买略同”不错。

13.

14.

He's a douche.

douche 【俚语】白痴 a word to describe an individual who has shown themself to be very brainless in one way

comings and goings 行为，活动 Movements, activities

16.

I was hoping you'd come to your senses, and now you have.

come to one's senses 不再做傻事

17.

And if you want the write-off for '09, You need to be breaking ground by the new year, so... Ho ho homeless.

write-off 销帐,勾销

break ground 破土动工

Bass老爸这两句话说得很有点水准，尤其最后一句ho ho homeless，ho ho模仿的是圣诞老人的笑声，用以嘲弄无家可归的流浪者，尤显残酷。

18.

I'm--I'm starved and bored out of my mind.

bored out of your mind 极度无聊 extremely bored

19.

- Ever read "the old man and the sea"?

25.

Season 3, Episode 13: The Hurt Locket

绯闻女孩第三季第13集：拆台不对

播出时间：2010年3月8日

剧情简介：Nate和S终于牵手；Chuck面对疑似生母；小J继续涉毒；V和Dan很尴尬；Rufus避着Lily……

片名释义：The Hurt Locket <—— The Hurt Locker

The Hurt Locker就是刚拿了奥斯卡奖的《拆弹部队》啦，人家在三月八日凌晨才拿的奖，晚上GG这集播放就叫The Hurt Locket，还真是……不过片名翻译就要命了，沪江小编某柒我自说自话就翻成了“拆台不对”……反正里面也挺多拆台情节的囧……

美军侵入伊拉克后，上士威廉姆斯?詹姆斯（杰瑞米?雷纳 Jeremy Renner 饰）被调入陆军亡命连拆弹组，接替刚在巴格达执行任务中牺牲的同事。拆弹组另两人，负责联络的士官桑波恩（安东尼?麦凯 Anthony Mackie 饰）和负责掩护的特种兵欧文（布莱恩?杰拉蒂 Brian Geraghty 饰）对意气用事的威廉姆斯相当反感。但在联合国大楼的拆弹行动中，抗拒命令强行拆弹的威廉姆斯却得到上校瑞德（大卫?莫尔斯 David Morse 饰）的赞赏。在一次仓库拆弹任务中，威廉姆斯认为被用作尸体炸弹的伊拉克小男孩是他在军营认识的卖盗版DVD的贝克汉姆（克里斯托佛?萨伊 Christopher Sayegh 饰）。小贝克汉姆的死让威廉姆斯更为疯狂，竟私离军营单枪匹马入城调查……

哎呀，又一句不错的台词，编剧最近比较眷顾VD嘛。

*怀旧MV《辣身舞》主题歌The Time Of My Life

by Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes

Now I've had the time of my life

No I never felt like this before

Yes I swear it's the truth

and I owe it all to you

and I owe it all to you

I've been waiting for so long

Now I've finally found someone

To stand by me

We saw the writing on the wall

As we felt this magical

Fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes

There's no way we could disguise it

Secretly

So we take each other's hand

'Cause we seem to understand

The urgency just remember

You're the one thing

I can't get enough of

So I'll tell you something

This could be love because

(CHORUS)

I've had the time of my life

No I never felt this way before

Yes I swear it's the truth

And I owe it all to you

With my body and soul

I want you more than you'll ever know

So we'll just let it go

Don't be afraid to lose control

Yes I know whats on your mind

When you say "Stay with me

tonight." Just remember

You're the one thing

I can't get enough of

So I'll tell you something

This could be love because

(CHORUS)

Cause I had the time of my life

And I've searched through every open door

Till I've found the truth

and I owe it all to you

*美剧高频词 hit勾搭上路

1.

hit on

【英英】To flirt with someone.

【英汉】勾搭，调情

如果你看美剧但是从没听过hit on，那真是一桩不可思议的事情。因为hit on somebody实在是一个出现频率太高的词汇了，经常出现在校园、酒吧、街头搭讪的桥段中。

你让我去勾搭你兄弟的女人？

2.

【英英】To set out, as on a trip; leave.

【举例】《越狱》第一季第13集

CO#1: You two hit the road right now, or we're gonna have a problem.

你们俩赶快上路，不然就有麻烦了。

3.

hit it off

【英英】To get along well together.

不说也知道，我跟“热毛巾”先生，咱俩处不来。

再来看一下三句带有hit的句子，都是hit+名词的结构，但意思却大不相同。

Season 3, Episode 18: The Unblairable Lightness of Being

绯闻女孩第三季第18集：不能B的生命之轻

播出时间：2010年4月12日

剧情简介：身怀六甲的 Dorota决定和Vanya在父母突然到访之前结婚，省得未婚先孕吓到了家长。Chuck决定为他们筹备婚礼，Dorota则请求Blair和 Chuck陪伴他们走进礼堂。Serena告诉Nate说她在同Humphreys共进早餐，可其实她却在私会Carter。Rufus发觉Lily又瞒着他自己的行踪。

片名释义：The Unblairable Lightness of Being <—— The Unbearable Lightness of Being

很明显啦，来自米兰·昆德拉小说《不能承受的生命之轻》，估计大家都是对这个短语比较熟，作品本身没看过的吧？很赞的小说，电影的拍摄手法也不错，都是出色的演员，译作《布拉格之恋》有点呆。

影片循着医生托马斯、摄影爱好者特丽莎、画家萨宾娜、工程师弗兰茨等人的生活轨迹，通过他们这间的感情纠葛，散文化地展现了苏军入侵后，捷克各阶层人民的生活和情绪。浪漫而忧郁的感伤情调动人心弦；而更重要的是它富于哲理地探讨了人类天性中的“媚俗”本质，从而具备了从一个民族走向全人类的深广内涵。

We leave the past behind and speed toward the unknown our future. We set out for far-off places and try to find ourselves or try to lose ourselves exploring pleasures closer to home. The problems start when we refuse to let change happen and cling to old habits. But if we hold on to the past too tight, the future may never come. Till death do us part.

Season 4, Episode 1: Belles de Jour

绯闻女孩第四季第1集：白日美人

播出时间：美国时间2010年9月13日

剧情简介：远赴巴黎的B和S照旧争争抢抢；N还在为S的离去怨念；D当爹了……

片名解析：来自1967年的法国情色电影《白日美人》Belle de Jour，超现实主义大师路易斯．布纽尔编导的一部生活哲理片。法国著名影星凯瑟琳．德诺芙成功地演出了一个具有双重性格的女人。本片对人性的阴暗面进行了探索，剖析和批判。故事讲述一个人格扭曲的中产阶级的贵妇，她一方面深爱着丈夫，一方面又不满足中产阶级家庭的生活，偷偷跑到妓院卖淫。影片以超现实和新写真的手法对这类双重人格的人的精神和肉体生活作了大胆的有价值的探讨。
