精彩点拨：
1.Blair, if you're gonna wear one of my designs, tell me so we can at least get it properly fitted.
点拨1：at least意思“至少”。例如：She's completely homeless at least I have my parents to fall back on. 她是真正无家可归，我至少有父母可依靠。
点拨2：get sth done是一个动词短语结构，get是使役动词，done是过去分词。意思是“让......做某事”。Properly在这里是“完全地”的意思，是副词，fitte是fit的过去分词做形容词用，意思是“合适的”，这里理解为“合身的”“和某人的身材匹配的”。剧中提到的get it properly fitted意思是把衣服改得完全合身。例如：You must get your hair cut. 你得去剪个头了。
2.Keep that in mind.
点拨：keep sth in mind意思是“记住”。例如：You do keep the words in mind.（你必须记住这些生词。）
3.So, Nate, you started thinking about college?
点拨：start doing sth是一个动词短语结构，start的后面接动名词，表示“开始做某事”“着手做某事”。例如：Come on, You guys, start doing some work, don't just mess around all day.（来吧，伙计们，开始做一些工作吧，不要整天胡混。） It needs everyone start doing it bit by bit.（它需要每个人从一点一滴做起。）
4.Yes, dad’s always spoken very highly of Dartmouth, but I'd like to check out west.
点拨1：speak very highly of意思是对......评价很高，赞扬...... 例如：He was very embarrassed to hear people speak so highly of him.（别人夸奖他，让他感到很难为情。）
点拨2：check out在饭店英语中是“结账退房”的意思。例如：It will take less than 5 minutes to check out.（退房最多只需5分钟。）在这里的意思是“看看”“核实”的意思。例如： So you brought me in to check out what is bothering you.（这么说，你带我进去是为了核实一下使你迷惑不解的事情了。） You should check out that new movie. It's great. （你应该看那部新电影。很棒的。）
5.His mother wouldn't hear of it. Dartmouth is far enough away for her.
点拨1：hear of是一个固定短语，意思是“听说”。例如：Your mother will be furious2 if she gets to hear of this.（你母亲若知此事定会怒不可遏。）在这里可以理解“同意”的意思。例如：I can't let you pay my debts I won't hear of such a thing.（我不能让你替我还债——我不同意此事。）
6.Nate, can I borrow you?
点拨：“Can I borrow you.”是一种俏皮的说法，诙谐幽默的说法，表示“叫某人离开所呆的地方跟自己到另一个地方去”。
7.Will you excuse me for a second?
点拨：这个可视为一个口语句型，意思“我能失陪一下吗？”句子中for a second是“一下子，一会儿”的意思。
8.Nathaniel…Any interest in some fresh air?
点拨：interest在这里是名词，意思是“兴趣”，表示......的兴趣后面的介词要用in。Interest in something意思是“对......的兴趣”。例如：Do you have a interest in playing football.（你要兴趣踢足球吗？）His interest in learning3 Japanese has petered out.（他学习日语的兴趣逐渐消失了。）
点拨：some fresh air意思是“新鲜的空气”，在这里比喻为“新鲜的事情”。
9.When I get back?
点拨：get back是“回来，回到（某处）”的意思。例如：I will get back in five minutes.（我分钟后回来。）I never lend books; you never get them back.（我的书决不外借，因为总是有去无回。）除此之外，它还有“恢复”的意思。例如：The democrats4 hope to get back at the next election5. （民主党希望在下次大选中重新执政。）
