My name is Mary Alice Young. In this morning's paper, you may come across an article about the unusual day I had last week. Normally, there's never anything newsworthy about my life, but that all changed last Thursday. Of course, everything seemed quite normal at first. I made breakfast for my family. I performed my chores. I completed my projects. I ran my errands. In truth, I spent the day as I spent every other day, quietly polishing the routine of my life until it gleamed with perfection. That's why it was so astonishing when I decided to go to my hallway closet and retrieve a revolver that had never been used. My body was discovered by my neighbor, Mrs. Martha Huber, who'd been startled by a strange popping sound. Her curiosity aroused, Mrs. Huber tried to think of a reason for dropping in on me unannounced. After some initial hesitation, she decided to return the blender she had borrowed from me six months before. [Screeams] It's my neeighbor. I think shee's beeeen shot. Theeree's blood eeveerywheeree. Yees, you'vee got to seend an ambulancee. You'vee got to seend onee right now. And, for a moment, Mrs. Huber stood motionless in her kitchen, grief-stricken by this senseless tragedy. But only for a moment. If there was one thing Mrs. Huber was known for, it was her ability to look on the bright side. I was laid to rest on a Monday. After the funeral, all the residents of Wisteria Lane came to pay their respects. And, as people do in these situations, they brought food. Lynette Scavo brought fried chicken. Lynette had a great family recipe for fried chicken. She didn't cook much while moving up the corporate ladder. She didn't have the time. But when her doctor announced she was pregnant, her husband Tom had an idea. "Why not quit yourjob?" "Kids do better with stay-at-home moms. It would be so much less stressful. " But this was not the case. In fact, Lynette's life had become so hectic she was now forced to get her chicken from the fast-food restaurant. Lynette would've appreciated the irony if she'd thought about it. But she didn't have the time. - Stop it, stop it, stop it.

Everyone understands the nature of war, we also understand that victory depends on the cards that we have been dealt. Some when faced with a bloody battle sim ply give in, but for some surrender is unacceptable, even though they know it w ould be a fight to the death。 每个人都清楚战争的本性，我们也知道胜利取决于我们打出的那些牌。有些人在面对血战会从容放弃；但是对某些人来说投降是无法接受的，尽管他们清楚面前的是决一死战。 The world is filled with unlikely friendships. How did they begin, with one per son desperately in need and another willing to lenda helping hand. When such k indness is offered,we are finally able to see the worth of those we have previ ously written off, and before we've known it, a bond has formed, regardless of whether others can understand it. Yes, unlikely friendships start up everyday, no one understands this more than the lonely, in fact, it's what they counton 世界上到处都是不太可能的友谊。它们都是由一方迫切的需求和另一方伸出的援助之手开始的。当这样的帮助提供给我们的时候，我们才明白曾经失败的价值。在我们相识之前，一条纽带就已经把我们连接在一起了，不管别人能否理解。的确，不太可能的友谊每天都在发生，没有人能比孤独寂寞的人更了解这一点。事实上，不太可能发生的友谊就是他们的指望。 Now and then we all need a little help, so we ask for small favors. But it' s always best to be wary of those eager to come to our rescue. Because even the smallest of favors carries a price tag. Yes, everyone has an agenda, no matter what they may tell us...and in those rare instances where there is no ulterior motive, we're so taking aback that we may fail to recognize the truth - that a loving friend has just done us an enormous favor。 偶尔我们总会需要帮助，所以我们请别人帮点小忙。不过对那些急切想拯救我们的人最好要带着一颗机警的心。因为哪怕是最小的恩惠都是有价格的。是的，每个人心里都有一本帐，不管他们告诉我们什么。别有用心的人太多了，像好朋友帮了大忙这样的情况真是少之又少。我们过分的警觉导致我们失去了对真相的判断力。 This is how Bree Van De Kamp finally came to change her weeklyroutine, she sti ll cleaned on Tuesdays, paid her bills on Wednesdays,and did her laundries on Thursdays, but her Fridays were now reservedfor a meeting, a special meeting w here she stood in front of peopleshe didn’t know, and said things she didn’t believe, and afterwardsBree would come home and reward herself on the complet ion of anothersuccessful week。对每个人来说意识到自己孤独的活在世上都是震惊无比的。我们认为理所当然的家庭会抛弃我们；我们深信无比的丈夫也可能背叛我们；我们深深爱着的女儿也许不再回到我们的身边。那时我们只能一个人孤独的走到生命的尽头。
13 We are reminded every spring with every rose that blooms, with every sunflower that blossoms, with every lily that buds, the world is a beautiful place. Sadly, it is filled with people who do ugly things. Constantly. The world is filed with people who do ugly things. Why do they act this way? Some lie to keep from losing what they love. Some lash out because they fear the future. Some put up walls because they have regrets. Yes, everyone has a reason for the ugly tings they do… And once we found out why, then we can try to stop them. 14 Paul Young had a son. But he had not seen Zach in years. He had lost him to a world of fast women,easy money, and hard drugs. Yes, Paul had lost his son,but he was determined to find him. And he would do anything, even that ment asking for help for a man who dispised him. We may think we’re left the past behind. But it has a way of catching up to us. Though we want to run away, we are forced to confront our past. And the secrets that it buried must come into the light. And then, if we are strong, we are able to move on. Yes, we all need to leave the past behind and move on toward the future. And if we are lucky, we will have help getting there. 15 Lynette had lost a lot of sleep over the years. There had been 3:00 a.m. feedings, and temperatures of 102, and late-night pillow fghts. But Lynette had never complained, because a mother is always on call. Leaving is never easy. But the time comes when we must move on, so we can leave our childhood behind, so we can let go of the past, so we can be a good parent. Yes, leaving is never easy, especially for those who have nowhere else to go. 16 The suburbs are full of parents, and aech parent has their own style. There is the disciplinarian, the smotherer and the negotiator,
《Desperate Housewives》第1季 1-01 The next day my friends came together to pack away my clothes, my personal belongings and what was left of my life. Not quite Gabrielle, not quite. How ironic. To have something I tried so desperately to keep secret treated so causally. I'm so sorry, girls. I never wanted you to burden with this. 第二天我的朋友们都来帮我收拾衣服，私人物品还有――我剩下的那些东西。远不只这些Gabrielle，远不只。多么讽刺，我拼命努力想要保守的秘密就这样随便的被她们发现了。对不起，姐妹们。我绝对不想让你们承受这种负担。 1-02 Yes, as I look back at the world I left behind, it's all so clear to me. The beauty that waits to be unveiled, the mysteries that long to be uncovered. But, people so rarely stop to take a look. They just keep moving. It's a shame, really. There's so much to see. 是的，当我回头看我身后的世界，它变得如此清晰。那么多期待闪亮登场的美丽，那么多渴望不被发现的秘密。但人们很少停下脚步去观察，他们只是一路前行。这真的很可惜。 1-03 Yes I remember the world. Every detail. And what I remember most is how afraid I was, what a waste. You see, to live in fear is not to live at all. I wish I could tell this to those I left behind, but would it do any good? Probably not. I understand now, there will always be those who face their fears, and there will always be those who run away. 是的，我记得这个世界的每一个细节。对我影响最深刻是却是我如何的害怕，真是浪费生命！活在恐惧中就和死了一样。我希望能把这些告诉给留在这世上的人，但是会有帮助吗？也许不会。我终于明白了，当恐惧来临的时候，总会有人去坚强的面对，也总会有人选择逃避。 1-04 What type of person would send such a note? Was it an enemy? Of course! But what kind? An acquaintance? A stranger? Or how about a neighbor that lives a few feet away? 什么样的人会寄这样一张字条？是敌人？当然了！但是是什么样的敌人？萍水相逢？还是陌生人？或者就是一个街坊邻居？ 1-05 People by their very nature are always on the lookout for intruders, trying to prevent those on the outside from getting in. But there will always be those who force their way into our lives, just as there will be those we invite in. But the most troubling of all will be the ones who stand on the outside looking in. The ones we never truly get to know. 人类的天性就是提防那些入侵者，我们努力防止外人进入我们的生活。但就像我们有时会邀请客人一样，总会有人强行进入我们的生活。不过最令人头痛的还是那些站在远处监视着我们的人，我们永远不知道他们的真面目。 1-06 The search for power begins when we are quite young. As children, we are taught that the

NARRATOR: My name is Mary Alice Y oung. When you read this morning's paper, you may come across an article about the unusual day I had last week. Normally, there's never anything newsworthy about my life. That all changed last Thursday. Of course everything seemed as normal at first. I made my breakfast for my family. MARY ALICE::Here we are. Waffles. NARRATOR: I performed my chores. NARRATOR: I completed my projects. NARRATOR: I ran my errands NARRATOR: In truth, I spent the day as I spend every other day - quietly polishing the routine of my life until it gleamed with perfection. NARRATOR: That's why it was so astonishing when I decided to go to my hallway closet to retrieve a revolver that had never been used. NARRATOR: My body was discovered by my neighbour, Mrs. Martha Huber, who had been startled by a strange popping sound. Her curiosity aroused, Mrs. Huber tried to think of a reason for dropping in on me unannounced. After some initial hesitation, she decided to return the blender she had borrowed from me 6 months before. MRS HUBER: (on the phone) It's my neighbour. I think she's been shot, there's blood everywhere. Y es, you've got to send an ambulance. Y ou've got to send one right now! NARRATOR: And for a moment, Mrs. Huber stood motionless in her kitchen, grief-stricken by this senseless tragedy. But, only for a moment. NARRATOR: If there was one thing Mrs. Huber was known for, it was her ability to look on the bright side. NARRATOR: I was laid to rest on a Monday. After the funeral, all the residents of Wisteria Lane came to pay their respects. And as people do in this situation, they brought food. NARRATOR: Lynette Scavo brought fried chicken. Lynette had a great family recipe for fried chicken. NARRATOR: Of course, she didn't cook much as she was moving up the corporate ladder. She didn't have the time. NARRATOR: But when her doctor announced Lynette was pregnant, her husband Tom had an idea. Why not quit your job? Kids do much better with stay at home mums; it was so much less stressful. NARRATOR: But this was not the case. NARRATOR: In fact, Lynette's life had become so hectic she was now forced to get her chicken from a fast food restaurant. Lynette would have appreciated the irony of it if she stopped to think about it, but she couldn't. She didn't have the time. LYNETTE: Hey, hey, hey, hey! LYNETTE: Stop it, stop it, stop it. Stop it. PRESTON: But Mom! LYNETTE: No, you are going to behave today. I am not going to be humiliated in front of the entire neighbourhood. And, just so you know how serious I am... PRESTON: What's that? LYNETTE: Santa's cell-phone number. PORTER: How'd you get that? LYNETTE: I know someone, who knows someone, who knows an elf. And if anyone of you acts up, so help me, I will call Santa and tell him you want socks for Christmas. Y ou willing to risk that? SCA VO kids: Uh-uh! LYNETTE: Okay. LYNETTE: Let's get this over with. NARRATOR: Gabrielle Solis, who lives down the block, brought a spicy paella. NARRATOR: Since her modelling days in New Y ork, Gabrielle had developed a taste for rich food and rich men. Carlos, who worked in mergers and acquisitions, proposed on their third date. Gabrielle was touched when tears welled up in his eyes.
