一、Listen and Think 先声夺人
Gossip girl: Hey, upper east siders. There's nothing gossip girl, likes more than a surprise, And we hear Blair waldorf's, got a 2-for-1 special-- Her mom Eleanor, who just returned from Paris, And Serena van deer woodsen, brunch buddies. Serena van Der Woodsen
Serena: Hey! You're up.
Blair: Did we have plans?
Eleanor: Darling, it is impolite to interrupt. I was just telling Serena. That BENDEL’S is interested in carrying my line.
Blair: Really? Oh, that's fantastic! Why didn't you say something?
Eleanor: I came back from Paris early to put together my look book, And if they like what they see, It could be the beginning of an entire lifestyle collection.
Blair: Because more people, should be like you, mother.
Eleanor: Before you tuck into that, You find a low-fat yogurt, more appealing.

Gossip girl: 嘿，上东区的居民们。绯闻女友最喜欢意外惊喜了。我们听说Blair Waldorf有个二对一的约会。她妈妈Eleanor刚从巴黎回来。来和她共进早餐。
Serena: 嘿，你起床啦。
Blair: 我们有约吗?
Eleanor: 亲爱的，打断别人说话可是很不礼貌的。我在跟Serena说。BENDEL’S公司有意要接管我们。
Blair: 真的吗?太棒了! 你怎么不早告诉我?
Eleanor: 我提前从巴黎回来，就是为了整理服装造型册。要是他们喜欢，我崭新的时尚事业就要扬帆起航了。
Blair: 因为会有更多的人想跟你一样成功，妈妈。
Eleanor: 在你大吃面包之前，你会觉得低脂酸奶更美味的。

二、Listen and Learn 内容透析
1. 句型：There is nothing sb. like more than+n. 没有什么比…更让某人喜欢了，也就是说某人最喜欢…。句中的动词like可以改成其他词，意思也跟着改变。比如：There is nothing more important than understanding your business. 没有比真正理解你的生意更重要的事了。这样的表达比直接陈述I like … most是不是更高级呢？
2. 2-for-1 special: 买一送一的特价商品。当然您也可以直接说"buy one get one"。Sometimes ads also cheat consumers. For example, buy one get one free, when you buy a pair of pants, you just get a belt free. 有时候广告也在欺骗消费者啊，比如买一送一，买条裤子，买一送一可能送的就是腰带。
3. Interrupt: v. 中断，打断，插嘴。Eleanor说"I t is impolite to interrupt."确实如此，打扰别人的时候，不妨先礼貌地说一句"I hate to interrupt you, but…"。
4. Carry my line: line在这里指的是"line of product"，引申为接管。Is the distributor required to carry the full line of products? 分销商是否被要求开展整条产品线？另有短语carry on the family line表示传宗接代，比如：I was only one that could carry on the family line. 我是家里惟一的传宗接代的人。
5. Put together: 放在一起，整合，装备。Look book多用于服装行业，表示样式手册，设计册等等。
6. Tuck into: 大吃。比如：The dinner smelled so good that I couldn't wait to tuck into it.
晚餐闻起来太美味了，我等不及要大吃一顿了。
7. Low-fat: 低脂肪的。给大家介绍一部分低脂肪食物：玉米（corn）、燕麦（oats）、枸杞（medlar）、海参（trepang/ sea cucumber）等等。Appealing指的是吸引人的，引起兴趣的。
