1. Mary Alice Voiceover: There were many things Gabrielle Solis knew for certain- She knew red was her colour. She knew diamonds went with everything.-And she knew men were all the same-But the one thing Gabrielle knew above all else - she would never want children...Unfortunately for Gabrielle, her husband Carlos felt differently.
red was her colour:意思是GABY穿红色的衣服最好看。Diamond:钻石 go with:搭配
2. Mary Alice Voiceover: Yes, Gabrielle Solis knew without a doubt she didn't want to be a mother. But what she couldn't know was just how much her husband wanted to be a father or that he had been tampering with her birth control for months. Or that in one week's time she would be pregnant.
birth control:control of the number of children born especially by preventing or lessening the frequency of conception,金山上解释为节制生育,这里解释避孕更好些我觉得。Pregnant:怀孕
3. Rex: What's Andrew going to think if you don't show up?
show up:出现
4. Lynette: Because I'm having drinks with friends I used to work with and they never call and if I blow them off that's it. I'm dead to them. No, I can't call Patty Binks, because she steals things. Dammit, Christy, you're thirteen years old, you've got a lot of trips to the mall ahead of you. Ok, ok, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I raised my voice, I'm calm. I'm starting to think this is about money so what is it that'll make it worth your while? A hundred? That's extortion, there's no way in hell that I'm gonna. Hello, hello?
Used to do sth :过去常常做某事 blow them off:不去负约,放鸽子 dammit:口头语,骂人的话。Extortion:the act or practice of extorting especially money or other property敲诈,勒索。
5. Carlos: No, the right decision was to use that money for my lawyers. We could have fought the indictment and then I wouldn't have had to take the plea bargain.
