地道英语学习-绝望的主妇第一季系列1

《绝望的主妇》这部美剧,主要描写是美国中产阶级的家庭生活,围绕的话题非常的广泛,里面的用词非常的标准和地道,是许多人学习英语地道表达的首选,如果觉得我的分享有帮助的话,可以持续的关注我。

今天我主要来讲第一集的部分,我会以第一季作为主要分享素材,如果效果非常好的话,我一直进行下去。

第一集里面主要讲的是主妇Mary Young在自杀之后,她的四个好朋友的日常生活,以Mary  Young 的独白拉开了第一集的序幕,每一集里面的独白的用词都非常好,也道出了很多人生哲理,很多问题就是我们生活中所遇到的问题,引人思考,到时候我会单独拿出一个板块来写这些独白,有中英文对照的哦。

这部剧让我喜欢的一个重要的原因就在于,我们在看别人的生活的时候,可以更好的审视自己,当生活中真正遇到这些问题自己该如何处理;其实生活就是一个问题接着一个问题出现,然后看谁更有从容不迫的心态去解决这些问题,谁就是生活中的赢家。

Part1  四个女主的出场

Lynette

 Lynette

 Lynette had a great family recipe for fried chicken. Of course, she didn’t cook much,while moving up the corporate ladder. She didn’t have the time. 勒奈特家有很棒的炸鸡秘方.当然,当她还在职场打拼的时候她很少做饭,因为没有时间.

But when her doctor announced she was pregnant, her husband Tom had an idea“why not quit your job?” “Kids do better with stay –at-home moms,”“It would be so much less stressful.” But this was not the case. 但当被告知怀孕后她的老公汤姆有了注意“你不如辞职吧”,“全职妈妈有利于孩子的成长”“这样压力也会小很多”“现实却不尽如人意”

In fact, Lynette’s life had become so hectic ,she was now forced to get her chicken from the fast-food restaurant. Lynette would’ve appreciated the irony if she’d thought about it. But she couldn’t have the time. 勒奈特的日子变得更加忙碌,以至于她不得不去快餐店点了份外卖炸鸡。如果勒奈特回头想想她会发现一切都背道而驰。可惜她根本没有时间。

Gabrielle

Gabrielle

Gabrielle Solis who lives down the block brought a spicy paella. Since her modeling days in New York. Gabrielle had developed a taste for rich food…and rich men. 住在街角的加布丽尔.索利斯带了西班牙辣味炒饭。自从在纽约做了模特后她的品味有了很大的提升,只吃名贵食物,只约有钱男人。

Carlos, who worked in mergers and acquisitions, proposed on their third date. Gabrielle was touched when tears welled up in his eyes. But she soon discovered this happened every time Carlos closed a big deal. 卡洛斯从事兼并与收购业务,在第三次约会时向她求婚了。加布丽尔被他得泪水打动了。但她很快发现卡洛斯每做成一笔大生意时都会这样。

Gabrielle liked her paella piping hot. However, her relationship with her husband was considerably cooler.加布丽尔喜欢热腾腾的炒饭。然而,她和丈夫的关系却日益冷淡。
