妙语佳句，活学活用
1. the man who holds your heart is a lucky fellow indeed
这句话的意思是：“能虏获你芳心的人真是个幸运的小伙子”。“Hold one’s heart”字面的意思是“抓住某人的心”，引申为“得到某人的芳心；得到某人的爱意”。“Fellow”在口语中表示“家伙；小伙子”。另外，“fellow”还有“同志、同伴”的意思。这里的“indeed”用来加强形容词、名词的语气，强调“他”真的是一个“幸运儿”。
2. What kind of an operation are you running here?
这句话的意思是：“你这儿怎么做生意的？”“你这做的什么生意？”当看见Giselle哭了出来，客户们都很惊讶。这里的“here”是用来加强语气的，表示吃惊。在新概念第三册第二课中，牧师看到黑暗中的Bill时说了一句话：“Whatever are you doing up here Bill ?”“Here”是用来表示牧师的惊奇的。此外，“run”在这里的意思是“办；经营，管理”，比如：run a business 做生意。
3. throw this whole deal out
意思是：“把整个生意（交易）都否决了”。“Throw out”是“不予考虑；否决；抛在脑后”的意思。比如：We can throw out that scheme.我们可以废除那个计划。
4. put you on the case
意思是“让你接手这个案子”。“Case”在这里指的是一个事例、情况，一个具体的工作。
5. And some girl is crying like we're on Oprah.
这句话的意思是：“有个女孩儿在哭，就好像我们在上奥普拉的节目一样。”奥普拉是美国著名谈话节目“奥普拉脱口秀”的主持人，她在节目中经常会和嘉宾一起抱头痛哭。
6. Kumbaya, Up With People routine.
Kumbaya和Up With People都是歌曲名。Kumbaya原是非洲某部落的土语“到这里来”，后引申为“不切实际的东西(幻想)”。这里是指Giselle总是在这种不真实、哭哭啼啼的状态中。
