6
Suddenly, the guys are holding all the chips.
7
I call it the mid-30s power flame.
8
It's all about age and biology.
9
I mean, if you want to get married, it's to have kids, right?
10
And you don't want to do it with someone older than 35, because then you have to have kids right away, and that's about it.
11
I think these women should just forget about marriage and have a good time.
12
I have a friend who'd always gone out with extremely sexy guys and just had a good time.

The space for romance.

The problem is expectations.
24
Older women don't want to settle for what's available.
25
By the time you reach your mid-thirties, you think, why should I settle?

29
There's not one woman in New York who hasn't turned down ten wonderful guys

because they were too short or too fat or too poor.

I have been out with some of those guys, the short, fat, poor ones.
32
It makes absolutely no difference.
33
They are just as self-centered and unappreciative as the good-looking ones.
34
Why don't these women just marry a fat guy?
35
Why don't they just marry a big fat tub of lard?

Happy birthday, dear Miranda.
37
Happy birthday to you.

Thank you for saying.

I didn't feel a thing.
51
It was like, hey, babe, gotta go.
52
Catch you later.
53
And I completely forgot about him after that.
54
But are you sure that that isn't just because he didn't call you?
55
Sweetheart, this is the first time in the history of Manhattan...
56
...that women have had as much money and power as men.
57
Plus, the equal luxury of treating men like sex objects.
58
Yeah, except men in this city fail on both counts.

That's when you dump them.
62
Oh, come on, ladies, are we really that cynical?
63
What about romance?
64
It's like that guy Jeremiah, the poet.
65
I mean, the sex was incredible.

77
Okay.

Linda Fiorentino.
79
Fuck me, that guy.
80
I'm never having one of those, oh my god, what have I done, epiphonies.
81
I hated that movie. Was it true?

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
