　　人物：钱德勒，莫妮卡

　　事件：钱德勒选择了从事广告业，并向莫妮卡好好展示了一番自己编广告词的能力。

　　Monica: Okay, I have looked through a bunch of career guides, photocopied¹ and highlighted key passages and put them into alphabetical² folders³ so you can make an informed decision.

　　莫妮卡：好了，我通读了各种求职指导，将关键部分进行了影印和标注，并按照首字母归类放到不同的文件夹里了，这样你就可以做出明智的选择了。

　　Chandler: How long was I in there?

　　钱德勒：我在浴室里面待了多久？

　　Monica: Okay. Let's start with the A's. Advertising⁴.

　　莫妮卡：好。现在从A打头的开始。广告。

　　Chandler: Wait. Advertising! That's a great idea!

　　钱德勒：等等。广告！这主意不错！

　　Monica: Don't you want to look through the rest?

　　莫妮卡：你不再看看其它的了吗？

　　Chandler: I don't think I have to hear the rest. Advertising makes perfect sense. Sorry you had to waste all this time, though.

　　钱德勒：用不着了。我觉得广告特别好。对不起，让你浪费了这么多的时间。

　　Monica: You call eight hours alone with my label maker⁵ wasted time? Ooh, now I get to use my shredder!

　　莫妮卡：你觉得与我的标签机八个小时的独处是浪费时间吗？哦，现在我又可以用碎纸机了！

　　Chandler: I mean, I can write slogans. I mean, how hard can it be, right? "Cheese. It's milk that you chew." "Crackers⁶. Because your cheese needs a buddy⁷." "A grape. Because who can get a watermelon in your mouth?"

　　钱德勒：我是说，我可以写广告词。那能难到哪儿去，对吧？“奶酪：可以咀嚼的牛奶。”“薄脆饼：给奶酪一个伴。”“葡萄：谁嘴里能装得下一个西瓜。”

　　Monica: I got one. "Socks. Because your family's feet deserve the best."

　　莫妮卡：我想到了一句：“袜子：给家人的脚最好的呵护。”

　　Chandler: Honey? Leave it to the pros⁸.

　　钱德勒：亲爱的，还是让专家来吧。

　　Monica: I actually know someone in advertising. I grew up with this guy who is a vice⁹ president at a big agency. Maybe I can get him to meet you? Give me the phone.

　　莫妮卡：我在广告业有熟人。我小时候的一个玩伴现在是一家大广告公司的副总裁。我可以介绍你给他认识。把电话给我。

　　Chandler: "The phone. Bringing you closer to people... who have phones."

　　钱德勒：“电话：拉近有电话的人之间的距离”。

　　Monica: "Marriage. It's not for everybody."

　　莫妮卡：“婚姻：并非人人都适合拥有”。
