n.波多黎各/本集故事就发生在 Thanksgiving（感恩节）的大背景下，这个节日始于 1621 年。那年秋天，远涉重洋来到美洲的英国移民，为了感谢上帝赐予的丰收，举行了 3 天的狂欢活动。从此，这一习俗就沿续下来，并逐渐风行各地。1863 年，美国总统林肯正式宣布感恩节为国定假日。届时，家家团聚，举国同庆，其盛大、热烈的情形，不亚于中国人过春节，在美国甚至比圣诞节还要隆重，这个节日里面，饭桌上火鸡（Turkey）和南瓜饼(Pumpkin
Pie)是必不可少的菜肴，因此又叫火鸡节，这些希望能够在观看的时候慢慢体会。/关于英美的主要节日，这里也做一个介绍：

Yertle the Turtle: Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories is a picture book
collection of three stories by Dr. Seuss. It was first published by Random
House Books on April 12, 1958, and is written primarily in
anapestic(adj.抑抑扬格的) tetrameter(n.四音步句). The story “Yertle the Turtle,”
among Seuss’s most notable, is widely recognized as condemning fascism and
absolute power, and the despotic(adj.专制的) ruler Yertle is meant to
parallel Adolf Hitler/剧中罗斯看的一本书——经典童话作品《乌龟大王亚尔特》Yertle
the Turtle 是知名儿童小说家苏斯博士（Dr.
Seuss）的名著。是讲海龟王 Yertle 让海龟们堆起来成它的王座，结果最后倒下来的故事。乌龟大王亚特尔為了掌握更大的權柄，统治更宽阔的领土，于是他命令属下的乌龟叠罗汉，将他给抬高，他以为只要他极目所及之处，尽是他的领土。所以，他不断的想要超越他人，也因此，叠罗汉越叠越高。最后，他更妄想超越月亮，想不到因低曾的一只乌龟打了一个喷嚏，整个乌龟王国就全盘瓦解了，而跌得最重的正是乌龟大王亚尔特，亚尔特正是苏斯博士对希特勒的讽刺。
Susan: Actually, I’m reading it to the baby.

you’re… crazy?
Susan: What, you don’t think they can hear sounds in there?

to identify an anonymous sperm donor)
[Scene: Monica and Rachel’s, everyone is there but Rachel.]
Ross: Look, if she’s talking to it, I just think that I should get some
belly time too. Not that I believe any of this
belly n.腹部/belly-time 胎教时间/“Not that I believe any of
this”，这是一个强调句型，相当于 I don’t belive any of
this，Ross 一方面不想让 Susan 一个人独享同胎儿亲近的机会，另一方面又非着重强调他是个 PHD 的身份,不相信这一套。在托福考试听力部分也常有这种用法。比如 M:I
hear the hocky game was packed. W:Not an empty seat in the house!Just standing
room
only.第一个人说：“我听说曲棍球比赛爆满了。第二个人回答说：“场地里没有空位置了，只有站的地方。”，这里第二个人说话时也把 Not

grill v.烧 烤/fixing n.调料/grilled cheese fixing n.烤起司配料/family-size
adj.适合(足够)全家用的/Funyuns is the brand name of an onion-flavored corn
chip introduced in 1969. The ‘chips’ are ring-shaped, like onion rings. They
are a product of the Frito-Lay Company. They were named “Funyuns” by professor
and copyrighter, Jim Albright, after it was disovered that the first choice of
name for the product, “OnYums” had already been taken. Funyuns are deep-fried
rings of enriched corn meal-based material that are coated(v.涂上一层) with
pungent, pale yellowish, onion-flavored powder.In 2006, the “window cutout”
showing the actual product inside the bag was replaced by a photograph of the
product, falling in line with the design of the rest of Frito-Lay’s product
line. The big-bag Funyuns was one of the last Frito-Lay brands to completely
phase out(v.逐步淘汰) the “window cutout”.
1969 年百事可乐的菲多利推出的 Funyuns 牌洋葱味小食品。需要指出的是，百事并不只是生产饮料，在 69 年就提出了。“你们的生活丰富多彩，百事的产品同样丰富多彩”的广告主题。这点国内的朋友可以了解的要少一些。Chandler 因为父母在感恩节那天宣布离婚，从此之后 Chandler 就对所有的宗教色彩节日反感，于是 Monica 给他装了西红柿汤、烤奶酪以及一些小食品给他。

: Ok, who wants light cheese, and who wants dark cheese?
Ross: I don’t even wanna know about the dark cheese.
Monica: (holding sandwich) Does anybody wanna split this with me?
Joey: Oh, I will.
Phoebe: Ooh, you guys have to make a wish.
Monica: Make a wish?
Phoebe: Come on, you know, Thanksgiving. Ooh, you got the bigger half.
What’d you wish for?
Joey: The bigger half.
: I’d like to propose a toast. Little toast here, ding ding. I know this
isn’t the kind of Thanksgiving that all of you all planned, but for me, this has
been really great, you know, I think because it didn’t involve divorce or
projectile vomiting. Anyway, I was just thinking, I mean, if you’d gone to Vail,
and if you guys’d been with your family, if you didn’t have syphilis and stuff,
we wouldn’t be all together, you know? So I guess what I’m trying to say is that
I’m very thankful that all of your Thanksgivings sucked.
