-My most favorite episode on "Friends" is the episode in which Monica asks Chandler to marry her.in which 定语从句:in which 引导定语从句,等于 in that episode,用来说明是哪一集。有了它就不用再重复写一遍 episode 这个词。
-My most favorite episode on "Friends" is the episode in which Monica asks Chandler to marry her.单身妈妈
-I'm a single mom, and, you know, society pushes us拿回人生的主导权;掌控自己的人生
一位单亲妈妈说自己看完求婚那集后,决定拿回人生的主导权。
But I mean, as a woman, you have to take control of your life.掌管;主导
So watching that episode got me thinking that I can also take charge of my own relationship.和抑郁搏斗
-I was battling depression.非常黑暗的境地
I was at a very dark place.比喻用法:a very dark place 字面是很暗的地方,实际指情绪的低谷。这里在讲和抑郁搏斗的经历,用暗来比喻痛,克制而准确。
I was at a very dark place.……的必要
The need to even eat was a problem.留某人那样的发型
-I was a gay man who wanted to have hair like Jennifer Aniston.回家就靠着它
-And "Friends" was what I came home to.让我每天起床的理由
-It became a reason for me to wake up every day because I felt I had friends around me.找到了我的莫妮卡
-Like every Chandler, I found my Monica.But I mean, as a woman, you have to take control of your life.但我是说,作为女人,你得自己拿回生活的主导权。 用 as a woman 设定立场,再用 take control 把选择权收回自己手里,清醒而不喊口号。
I was at a very dark place.我处在非常黑暗的地方。 用 at a very dark place 的空间比喻描述抑郁,不说重话却句句沉重,更能共情。
They were my friends since I didn't really have any.他们就是我的朋友,因为我其实没什么朋友。 前半句给人温暖,since 从句把孤独摊开,两句之间的落差特别真实。
-Like every Chandler, I found my Monica.就像每一个钱德勒,我找到了我的莫妮卡。 把剧中角色当成爱情的原型,用一个熟悉名字承载一整个爱情故事,温柔又有共鸣。
-It became a reason for me to wake up every day because I felt I had friends around me.它成了我每天起床的理由,因为我感觉身边有朋友。 把一部剧说成起床的理由,理由又落回「身边有朋友」,温柔里带一点心酸。
意思是「在……上出了大力、起了很大作用」。戏里一位粉丝说这部剧 had a big hand in teaching me English,就是它在自己学英语上帮了大忙。夸某件事帮了大忙,可以用。
可以说 take control of your life。戏里一位单身妈妈说她 take control of your life,意思是自己拿回生活的主导权、主动求婚,而不是被社会推着走。近义说法还有 take charge of your life。
zeitgeist 是「时代精神、时代潮流」,enter the zeitgeist 就是「进入时代潮流、成了集体意识的一部分」。戏里说这部剧 somehow entered the zeitgeist,意思是它不知怎么就成了全社会都在聊的东西。
是「这可不是普通电视剧」的意思,average 在这里指「平平无奇、寻常的」。戏里有人听到片头曲在电台播,就说这不是一般的电视剧,语气是惊讶加自豪。
有人很孤单,说 They were my friends since I didn't really have any,也就是把剧里的人当成了自己的朋友;还有人说自己靠它走出抑郁,It became a reason for me to wake up every day。这些回答解释了这部剧为什么对很多人那么重要。
