cannot help but friends 原句: I couldn’t help but overhear what you just said, and I think it’s time for you to forget about Rose, move on with your life. 我听到你刚说的话，我想你也该把罗丝抛在脑后了，继续你的生活。 解析：这里面的短语can’t (couldn’t) help but是口语中常用的表达方式之一，在本集中也多次出现。它的英文释义为to have no choice except to do something，可以翻译成“禁不住”“不得不”“无奈做某事”等意思。在这句之前，Monica看到Susan婚礼的温馨场面就跟Ross说好感动，Ross当时也回了一句I can’t help but，就表示“我不禁很羡慕”“很感动”这个意思。再来看两个相关的例句。 例句： We couldnt help but doze off during his lecture. 他演讲时我们不得不打瞌睡。 Due to the present price level, we cannot help but adjust our offer. 由于目前的价格情况，我方不得不调整报价。 下面的经典台词希望大家都能够流利地背诵下来哦！ 老友记经典台词 1.00:05:57,050 -- 00:06:00,210 Little did she know God thought, “okay, but thats it. 她怎么会想到上帝在想：“好，到此为止了” 00:06:03,950 -- 00:06:06,720 Oh, but the weirdest thing was... 但是最诡异的事情是… （Little did she know是一个常用的倒装用法，意思是“她根本不知道…”例如：Little did she know that her husband and her puppy love were best of friends. 她对自己丈夫知道的不多，她的初恋成了他最好的朋友。再如：Little did he know hed make it into the history books, and is remembered every five years or so around this time. 他大概没有预料到自己的行为写到了历史书中，并且过上三、五年就会有人拿来做文章。） 2.00:08:43,320 -- 00:08:46,740 -Really. -Yes.
