Rachel: Oh, like I wasn't dreading（非常害怕;极为担心） tomorrow enough, having to give it back to him... 'Hi Barry! Remember me? I'm the girl in the veil（面纱，面罩） who stomped on your heart（让你心碎） in front of your entire family!' Oh God and now I'm gonna have to return the ring, without the ring, which makes it so much harder...

Rachel: Oh, I am sorry...
Monica: I gave you one job! (Starts to examin the lasagne through the bottom of the glass pan.)
Rachel: Oh, but look how straight those noodles are!

Chandler: Kinda puts that whole pillow thing inperspective（观点；愿景、透视图）, huh, Mon?
Rachel: Well now, how-how do you fit into this whole thing?
Ross: Well, Carol says she and Susan want me to be involved, but if I'm not comfortable with it, I don't have to be involved basically it's entirely up to me（由我决定）.
Phoebe: She is so great! I miss her.
Monica: What does she mean by 'involved'?
Chandler: I mean presumably（很可能;大概;想必是）, the biggest part of your job is done.
Ross: Anyway, they want me to go down to this- sonogram thing with them tomorrow.
Rachel: So what are you gonna do?
Ross: I have no idea. No matter what I do, though, I'm still gonna be a father.
(Joey starts to eat the rest of the lasagne and everyone turns and stares at him.)
Joey: .....Well, this is still ruined（毁坏的;严重受损的）, right?

Young people in the US South and West are increasingly getting coronavirus
Updated June 22, 2020
The major thrust of new coronavirus cases in the United States is in the South and West, where officials say more young people are ignoring social distancing measures and testing positive.
美国新冠病毒病例主要集中在南部和西部地区，官员们说，那里有更多的年轻人无视社交距离措施并检测出呈阳性。
Young people are more likely to have milder outcomes from coronavirus, but they can still infect others who are more at risk.
年轻人感染冠状病毒后的症状可能更轻，但他们会感染风险更高的人群。
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, told Axios that the recent high number of cases in young people is "not surprising”, but he warned of what's to come.
美国高级传染病专家安东尼·福西博士告诉本报记者，最近年轻人的高发病率“不足为奇”，但他警告要注意其后续影响。
"They get infected first, then they come home, and then they infect the older people. The older people get the complications, and then they go to the hospitals," Fauci said. "The death rate always lags several weeks behind the infection rate."
“他们先被感染，回家，然后感染老年人。老年人会出现并发症，然后去医院。”福西博士说，“死亡率总是比感染率滞后几个星期。”
The focus on young coronavirus-positive patients comes as nearly half of states are reporting a rise in new positive cases and some continue to break records in their daily reported cases. Florida on Monday surpassed 100,000 total coronavirus cases, according to data released by the Florida Department of Health.
在关注年轻冠状病毒阳性患者之际，近半数州报告，新增阳性病例数增加，有些州的单日报告病例数继续打破记录。佛罗里达州卫生部公布的数据显示，周一，佛罗里达州新冠病毒病例总数超过了10万。
The increases highlight America's systemic failure to control the pandemic, a sharp contrast to its trajectory in Europe and Asia. There, coronavirus cases sharply increased in early 2020, were met with fierce efforts to stop its spread and have since rapidly declined.
这一增长凸显了美国在疫情控制方面的系统性失败，与欧洲和亚洲的情况形成了鲜明对比。在欧洲和亚洲，新冠病毒病例在2020年初急剧增加，在严厉的遏制措施出台后，病例数迅速减少。
In the US, the first wave of coronavirus isn‘t over.In fact, cases took just a small dip and are now increasing months after the pandemic hit American shores.
在美国，第一波冠状病毒还未结束。事实上，病例数只是小幅下降，在大流行袭击了美国海岸几个月后，现在还在增加。
