重點講解
1. Mary Alice Voiceover:"Gabrielle was waiting for her next great idea. Her first great idea came when she was fifteen, after her stepfather paid her a late-night visit. She bought a bus ticket to New York the very next day. Her next occurred five years later when she decided to seduce a famous fashion photographer. One week later, she began her career as a runway model, which soon led to her next great idea--her decision to marry Carlos Solis. Before she knew it, she had jumped off the runway and moved to the suburbs. Her most recent great idea was born out of her boredom with her new life. That's how she came to start an affair with her teenage gardener, which was cut short by a tragic accident. So once again, Gabrielle was in need of a great idea."
Seduce: 誘惑; 引誘 tragic:悲慘的, 悲劇的Gaby居然用了三個晚上就改變了一生,呵呵,大概這種事情只可能發生在美國吧。
2. Gabrielle: "My life. It hasn't turned out like I thought it would."
Turn out /turn out to be: to prove to be in the result or end結果是,原來是
3. Mary Alice Voiceover:"She decided to throw the first annual Sacred Heart Charity Fashion Show, to raise money for more nursing staff."
Throw這里又出現了,是承辦,舉辦的意思。Raise money for sth:為……籌集資金
