老友记 六人行 第九季第二十集经典笔记 920 肥皂剧派对 Ross和Joey又一次在三角关系中分庭抗礼，不过这回女主角不再是Rach。 Ross的新同事Charlie美貌与智慧并重，Ross倾心于她并带她出席Joey为DOOL举办的屋顶派对。 Charlie聊到自己的旧男友们，Ross自觉相形见绌。 Chandler独自看话剧--一个愤怒女性的独角戏。 而Rach和Mon却在派对上发酒疯、人来疯，和肥皂剧明星们调情。 9.20 The One With The Soap Opera Party Rachel continues to struggle with her feelings for Joey. Joey gives the gang tickets to a one-woman play (Why Don't You Like Me?) to get rid of them while he has a party for his Soap Opera buddies, on the roof. Everyone finds out and comes to his party, except Chandler, who gets stuck at the play, watching a bitter woman complain about life. Ross meets a beautful new professor (Charlie) and they hit it off(v.合得来) really well. He brings her to Joey's party, but hesitates to make a move because he's intimidated by her past romantic interests, all Nobel Prize winners. Rachel decides to go after Joey, but then she finds him making out with Charlie, which spoils her plans and Ross's. Chandler tricks Monica and Phoebe into going to the play.

Still, it can't be easy for you to leave Harvard? Especially after working alongside a Nobel Prize winner like Albert Wintermeyer? alongside adv.在旁边[eg: The police car pulled up alongside]/Harvard University (incorporated as The President and Fellows of Harvard College) is a private university in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA and a member of the Ivy League. Founded in 1636 by the Massachusetts Legislature, Harvard is the oldest institution of higher learning(n. 高等院校) in the United States, as well as the first and oldest corporation in the Americas.Initially referred to simply as "the new college", the institution was named Harvard College on March 13, 1639, after its first principal donor, a young clergyman(n.牧师) named John Harvard. A graduate of Emmanuel College, Cambridge in England, John Harvard bequeathed(vt.遗赠) about four hundred books in his will to form the basis of the college library collection, along with half his personal wealth worth several hundred pounds. The earliest known official reference to Harvard as a "university" rather than a "college" occurred in the new Massachusetts Constitution of 1780.In his 1869-1909 tenure[n.(土地)使用期限] as Harvard president, Charles William Eliot radically transformed Harvard into the pattern of the modern research university. Eliot's reforms included elective courses(n.选修课), small classes, and entrance examinations. Eliot saw to it that Harvard would attract the best minds from around the world, thus securing its place among the great world universities. The Harvard model influenced American education nationally, at both college and secondary levels. Eliot, it should be noted, was responsible for the now famous "Harvard Classics" originally known as "Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf." During his presidency at Harvard, Dr. Eliot was more well-known than than many of Presidents of the United States at the time.In 1999, Radcliffe College, founded in 1894 as an outgrowth of the "Harvard Annex(n.附件)" for women,merged formally with Harvard University, becoming the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.Harvard's library collection contains more than 15 million volumes,making it the largest academic library in the world, and the fourth among the five "mega-libraries" of the world (after the British Library, the Library of Congress, and the French Bibliothèque Nationale, but ahead of the New York Public Library). Harvard has the largest financial endowment(n. 捐赠) of any non-profit organization, standing at $34.9 billion as of 2007. Actually, Albie is the guy I broke up with. You... you dated Albert Wintermeyer? Yeah... And you called him Albie!? (laughs) I mean that's like... like calling Albert Einstein... er... Albie...

(Charlie looks at him confused, but smiling) Oh I'm sorry, I don't mean to pry... it's just that this must be what regular people experience when they watch "Access Hollywood". pry v.探查/ Access Hollywood is a weekday television entertainment news program covering events and celebrities in the entertainment industry(n.娱乐业). It was created by former Entertainment Tonight executive producer Jim Van Messel, and is currently being directed by Kim Anastasia (in previous years, Doug Dougherty and later Christopher A. Berry have directed the program). Access Hollywood primarily focuses on news in the music, television, and movie industries. It began broadcasting on September 9, 1996 and is nationally syndicated in the United States. In 2003 a British version of the show began production and in 2006 Channel 6 of Ireland also began producing their own version of the show. Ok, you want the dirt? Albie was seriously insecure. I mean, he wasreally intimidated by the guy I dated before him. dirt n.<口>丑闻 八卦(=gossip)/intimidated adj.害怕的 受到恐吓的 Who is intimidating to a guy who won the Nobel Prize? A guy who won two. (a little suprised) Two? Wha...? Don't tell me you dated Benjamin Hobart Yeah... for three years. Oh my God! Have you ever been in a relationship with someone who hasn't won the Nobel Prize? (smiling and thinks for a moment)... no... but there was my first boyfriend Billy. Oh yeah? no, no Nobel Prizes for him? No, but hedid just win the MacArthur genius grant. The MacArthur Fellows Program or MacArthur Fellowship[n.奖学金](sometimes nicknamed the "genius grant") is an award given by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation each year to typically 20 to 40 citizens or residents of the U.S., of any age and working in any field, who "show exceptional merit and promise for continued and enhanced creative work." According to the Foundation website, "the fellowship is not a reward for past accomplishment, but rather an investment in a person's originality, insight, and potential." The current amount of the award is $500,000, paid in quarterly(adj.每季度的) installments over five years. There have been 731 recipients to date(adv.至今为止). The MacArthur Foundation has distributed over $350 million to these recipients.The Fellowship has no application. People are nominated anonymously, by a body of nominators who submit recommendations to a small selection committee(n.选拔委员会) of about a dozen people, also anonymous. The committee then reviews every nominee and passes along their recommendations to the President and the board of directors(n.董事会). The entire process is anonymous and confidential. Most new MacArthur Fellows first learn that they have even been considered when they receive the congratulatory(adj. 祝贺的) phone call. Huh... huh... what a loser! Some more wine? (takes the half-full glasses and goes to the counter) Hey Ross! How is it going with Charlie? (sarcastically) Oh Great! After I finish my wine I'm going to blow my average-sized brains out.

She is known for her brash(adj.性急的) manner and loud, raspy(adj.刺耳的) voice with a heavy metropolitan New York accent. Rivers is the National Chairwoman of the Cystic Fibrosis(n.囊胞性纤维症)Foundation and is a board member of God's Love We Deliver. Like the ground-breaking Phyllis Diller, Rivers' act relied heavily on poking fun at(vt.取笑) herself. A typical Rivers joke about her unattractiveness: "I used to stand by the side of the road with a sign: 'Last girl before freeway(<美>高速公路).'"

A prize in economics in memory of Nobel ("The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel") was instituted by Sweden's central bank in 1968. The five initial prizes were first awarded in 1901, while the first prize in economics was awarded in 1969. The prizes in specific fields of research are widely regarded as the most prestigious award one can receive in those fields. The Nobel Peace Prize conveys social prestige, and that award also is often politically controversial. With the exception of(adv.除…以外) the Nobel Peace Prize, the Nobel Prizes are presented in Stockholm at a formal annual ceremony on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death. The Nobel Peace Prize and its recipients' lectures are presented at a formal annual ceremony in Oslo, Norway, also on December 10; the lectures by the recipients of the Prizes awarded in Stockholm occur in the days prior to December 10.
