I have not done this before. 放我一马吧，念在我是初犯。 serve 发球 in sports such as tennis, to hit the ball to the other player as a way of starting the game 在诸如网球之类的运动中，将球击向另一位球员作为开始比赛的一种方式 eg: Whose turn is it to serve? 这次该谁发球了？ Let me tell you what saint Alice is saying with that phony smile plastered on her face. 让我来告诉你那满脸假笑的圣人爱丽丝的真面目吧。 phony 也可以说phoney not sincere or not real 虚假的 eg: He gave the police a phony address. 他给了警方一个虚假的地址。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 Don't criticize him so much.

They'll only tease you more if you get angry." --简直不敢相信，那些孩子居然那样取笑我。 -- 忍着吧，如果你生气了，他们只会变本加厉。 3. do the time 在这里指的是accept the punishment 接受惩罚；一般意义上就指的是：蹲监狱；坐大牢； eg: If you don't want to do the time, don't do the crime. 如果你不想坐牢，那就不要犯罪！ 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 My head really hurts. I am paying the penalty for getting drunk last night.

【句子】So how much did that horse and buggy set us back? 【Desperate Housewives-S1E17】 【发音】[səʊ] [haʊ] [mʌtʃ] [dɪd] [ðæt] [hɔ:(r)s] [ænd] ['bʌgi] [set] [ʌs] [bæk] 【发音技巧】did that不完全失去爆破；that horse and buggy不完全失去爆破+连读+完全失去爆破；set us连读+闪音； 【翻译】那辆马车，花了咱们多少钱？ 【适用场合】 这里说一下horse and buggy是那种老式的四轮马车，看视频就明白这里提到的是什么意思了。 set back这个短语本来的意思是： 阻止/妨碍某件事情的发展； 但在口语中，set back也有cost的意思，指花费； 所以今天视频中的这句话我们完全可以改写成：So how much did that horse and buggy cost us? eg: That coat set me back $1,000. 那件外套花了我1千美元。 eg: In 1981, dinner for two in New York would set you back $5. 在1981年，俩人吃晚餐差不多会花5美元。 eg: My daughter's wedding set me back $20,000. 我女儿的婚礼花了我2万美元。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 这双高跟鞋不贵，只花了我50美元。

【句子】I mean emotionally I’m just all jumbled up. And I don’t think I can leap right into something new, relationship-wise, you know, at the moment. 【Desperate Housewives-S1E17】 【发音】[aɪ] [mi:n] [ɪˈməʊ.ʃən.əl.i] [aɪm] [dʒʌst] [ɔ:l]/[ɑ:l] ['dʒʌmbld] [ʌp] [ænd] [aɪ] [dəʊnt] [θɪŋk] [aɪ] [kæn] [li:p] [raɪt] ['ɪntʊ] ['sʌmθɪŋ] [nju:] [rɪ'leɪʃnʃɪp-waɪz] [ju:] [nəʊ] [æt] [ðə] ['məʊmənt] 【发音技巧】just all连读；jumbled up连读；and I连读；don’t think不完全失去爆破；leap right不完全失去爆破；right into连读+闪音；at the不完全失去爆破； 【翻译】我现在，感情方面一团糟，我觉得现在的我并不适合尝试新事物，你懂得，比如一段新感情。 【适用场合】 今天我们学习三个表达： 1. jumbled up 在英语中，jumble这个单词作动词，可以理解成：把事物混乱地搅和在一起； 你可以说jumble sth. together 或者 jumble sth. up 都是这样的意思； 那么一般来说，这样的动词短语，我们比较常用被动语态： be jumbled up 或者be jumbled together eg: Books, shoes and clothes were jumbled together on the floor. 书籍、鞋子和衣服都被散乱地扔在地上。 eg: Her clothes were all jumbled up in the suitcase. 她的衣服都被揉成一团扔在手提箱里。 今天视频当中Susan的意思是说，感情方面，她真的是一团糟的一种状态。 2. relationship-wise 在英语当中，后缀-wise表示的意思是 关于……的；就……而论； 所以今天关键句中的relationship-wise就相当于之前出现的emotionally 比如你可以说： eg: I may be successful career-wise, but I’m a failure relationship-wise. 我事业上可能挺成功的，但是感情方面，我真的非常不顺利。 3. leap into sth. 在这里leap本身指的是跳； 英语中有一个俚语叫做: Think twice before you leap. 三思而后行。 所以今天关键句中出现的leap into sth. 可以用来指突然开始做新的一件事（并没有想好，做好思想准备）； 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 Jim一回家就把脏衣服乱扔在床上。

【句子】Hey, listen. I’m about to break for lunch. How would you like to join me? 【Desperate Housewives-S1E17】 【发音】[heɪ] [ˈlɪs.ən] [aɪm] [əˈbaʊt] [tʊ] [breɪk] [fɔ:(r)] [lʌntʃ] [haʊ] [wʊd] [ju:] [laɪk] [tʊ] [dʒɔɪn] [mi:] 【发音技巧】about to完全失去爆破；break for不完全失去爆破；would you音的同化；like to完全失去爆破； 【翻译】话说，我打算休息一下去吃个午饭，你要一起去吗？ 【适用场合】 说到break这个单词，大家平时常用动词v. 打破，或者n. 休息 比如说名词的用法，可以说 break the vase 打破那个花瓶 take a break 休息一下 今天这个视频中的对话里，break明显是动词，那么如何理解呢？ 所以break for sth. to stop working for something else, such as lunch, coffee, etc. 停下手头的工作（或手头的事儿），去吃个午饭，或者喝个咖啡等等。 所以这里的break有stop或者interrupt 停止，中断的意思。 所以 break for lunch 这里其实就是休息一下，去吃午饭。 eg: I want to break for coffee. 我想休息一下，喝个咖啡。 eg: I think we've done enough for now—let's break for lunch. 我觉得我们干得差不多了，我们休息一下，吃个午饭吧。 eg: I know you have to finish this paper, but can you break for a talk to your grandparents? 我知道你不得不完成这篇论文，但是你能不能稍微休息一下，和爷爷奶奶说说话呢？ 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 我们一般会在12点半的时候休息，吃午餐。
