【重點講解】
1. Mary Alice Voiceover:So when his friend set him up on a blind date with a beautiful stranger...
Jim:Wow,you're so much hotter than Nikki said you'd be.How old are you?
Susan:How old do you think I am?
A blind date:第一次約會這里Jim犯了個很嚴重的錯誤，就是不該問女士的年齡，尤其在北美國家，女性的年齡都是保密的。
2. Tom:I know. I know.Look,I...they've got chicken pox.
Lynette:Chicken pox?That's the emergency?
Tom:They're totally contagious.
chicken pox: 水痘contagious: 會傳染的
3. Tom:Oh,it's nothing.There's just a small chance of sterility if a grown man gets chicken pox,so...
sterility: 不能生育，有這一說么？成年男子得了水痘后就會喪失生育能力？要問問學醫的了。
4. Tom:Well,honey,it's a back-up plan.I'm not gonna use it.
Back-up :備份
5. Bree:Oh,you mean your having suspected me of murdering my husband?Detective,that is all water under the bridge now.
water under the bridge簡單又好用的一個詞組，大家一定要學會用。We say "water under the bridge" to refer to past experiences and conflicts which we have decided to forget. This idiom compares these memories of the past to water which has passing under [the] bridge. Example: "Aren't you still angry about what he said?" Answer: "No, that was a long time ago. It's all water under the bridge."
6. Bree:Oh,oh,I'm fine.I just,um,had a flat tire.
a flat tire:就是輪胎爆了的意思。
7. 結束語Mary Alice Voiceover:Illnesses can take on many forms.Those of the body are easy to treat.Much more difficult are the hidden maladies that fester in our hearts..The secret addictions that consume our souls.And the diseases we deny which affect our judgment.To survive, we need to find that special someone who can heal us. But we can never predict who will have the cure for what ails us....or when they'll show up.
