课堂答疑：

1、京晶老师好，哼哼老师好！最近在看一篇关于饰演老友记Gunther的演员的一篇文章，其中有个别地方不是很清楚，想请教一下哼哼老师，谢谢~！

（1）Tyler was initially cast while working as a barista at the Bourgeois Pig coffee shop in Los Angeles. However, he didn’t have a single line of dialogue on the show until he had made 33 appearances.

译文：泰勒最初选角时是在洛杉矶的Bourgeois Pig咖啡店当咖啡师。然而，直到他在剧中第33次出现时，才有了第一句台词。

问题：这个译文准确吗?while这里不太明白，这句话是不是说：泰勒最初的角色是洛杉矶Bourgeois Pig咖啡店的咖啡师。

（2）As Friends inched towards its end

译文：在《老友记》接近尾声的时候

问题：toward和towards总是傻傻分不清。这里的towards可以用toward替换吗?二者有什么区别?

（3）另外还有一个问题关于firm和company

如果说一家机械制造厂，除了用manufacturer 和 factory外，可以用firm 还是用company?两者可以互换吗?还是有区别?

非常感谢老师！也非常感谢交流群热心的助教老师！谢谢！

2、Henry老师好，请问pour/ˈpȯr/和poor /ˈpu̇r/在发音上有什么区别，感谢解答。
