身临其境练一练

Gossip Girl,《绯闻女孩》

A:Focus on your work ethic, not your wardrobe. W is about more than just fashion and beauty. We do probing interviews, an art issue. We're looking for visionaries.

甲:专注于你的职业道德，而非衣柜。《W》杂志不只关于时尚和美丽。我们做艺术方面的深度调查，我们寻求有眼光的人。

B:Get out of here, Humphrey. This is my world.

乙:闪远点，汉弗莱，这是我的地盘。

A:I can't just quit. When Lily said Conde Nast, I figured she meant “Vanity Fair” or “The New Yorker”，but that doesn't mean she didn't pull every string she had on my behalf. Turns out it's easier to get a guy paroled than it is to get a magazine internship in this town.

甲:我可不能辞职，莉莉说康泰纳仕集团的时候，我还以为她是指《名利场》或《纽约客》之类的杂志，但这并不意味着她没有想办法来帮我的忙，事实证明去假释一个人，比在这个城市里进入杂志社实习要容易多了。

B:You don't know the difference between Rodarte and road kill. You'll be guillotined.

乙:你都不知道“路达特路”和“公路杀戮”有什么区别。你死定了。

A:We're interns. I may not know couture, but I know how to collate.

甲:咱们是实习生。也许我不懂女装，但我知道怎么整理资料。

B:And I know how to staple, so stay out of my way, or I'll use one to attach your tongue to your shoulder blade.

乙:而我还知道怎么装订，所以别挡我的路，不然我就把你的舌头钉到你的肩胛骨上。

生活口语

What's your take on the new magazine?

你怎么看那份新出的杂志？

Too many pictures, not enough articles. It's not my cup of tea.

图片太多，文章太少。不是我喜欢的类型。

重点讲解:

Can you comment on the new magazine?

What's your take on the new magazine?

询问对方对某杂志的看法，可以说：Can you comment on the new magazine? comment on sth.表示“对某事做出评论，发表意见”，但是这个表达显得过于正式，口语中询问“对…的看法”常用What's your take on…?
