Good morning.
An hour ago, I resigned as State's Attorney of Cook County.
(resign as: 辞去, resign from: 从…辞职。resign as manager)
I did this with a heavy heart and a deep commitment to fight these scurrilous charges.
(heavy heart 沉重的心情. deep commitment :深厚承诺 scurrilous下流)
I want to be clear. I have never abused my office . I have never traded lighter sentences for financial or sexual favors.
(trade=exchange)
At the same time, I need to atone for my personal failing with my wife, Alicia, and our two children.
(atone for:赎罪)
The money used in these transactions was mine..... and mine alone. No public funds were ever utilized.
(was 的主语是the money, public funds: 公款, public funds were utilized = embezzlement)
But I do admit to a failure of judgment in my private dealings with these women. Alicia and I... ask the press please respect our privacy. Give us time to heal.
(press: 媒体, heal = recover)
With the love of god, and the forgiveness of my family, I know I can rebuild their trust.
(rebuild trust: 重拾信任)
I want to thank the people of Chicago. It has been an honor to serve you. And I pray one day I will serve you again. Thank you.
Sir! Are you still involved with prostitutes, sir? How many were there, sir? Will you ever try to hold public office again? Sir! Answer the question!
(public office: 公职)
We have interviews set up with the tribune and channel four.
absolutely not. I'm not doing any more interviews. I want you to cancel all of them.
That's it, I'll tell Channel Two we don't have a comment at the present time, but we emphatically question the authenticity of this thing.
(emphatically: 强调, question = doubt, authenticity: 真实性 )
you all right?
oh, excuse me, isn't the staff meeting at 9:30?
you're in the wrong conference room. it's up one floor.
(up one floor, down one floor)
a case that could propel us to the top rank of full service firms, and I don't think I need to remind you what that will do to your year-end bonuses.
(propel: 驱动, top-rank 一流的)
anyway, Sheffrin-Marks fired their last firm because they took their eyes off the ball. So, until further notice, your personal lives have been cancelled.
(take one's eyes off the ball 分心 have been cancelled 现在完成时)
so, we need some of you to help out with the lower profile client work to free up our top litigators.
(free up 解放)
Ed, you take the witness prep on highway redistribution. Don, you take the Brighton criminal. And Alicia will take the pro bono.
(pro bono 无偿的)
Everyone else, your task is to show Sheffrin-Marks our "A" game, okay? Let's do this.
I'm sorry I didn't introduce you in there. Everything's moving real fast with this class action.
well, I just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity. It's real a life saver.
(life saver: 救世主)
No, glad you could come abroad.
(come abroad: 入伙)
Hope you're all right with this pro bono.
How'd it sound?
Interesting, good
Don't be nervous. You worried about the gunshot residue?
(residue: 残留,剩菜)
Nice ring tone. Who gets that?
Oh, my mother-in-law. My daughter programmed it.
And what's yours?
So, um, the gun residue...
Diane, you're briefing Alicia, right? Diane
(briefing: 给....介绍情况)
Good, you're in good hands.
(in good hands: 得力助手)
So let's catch up, have dinner.
So, Will speaks highly of you.
(speak highly of sb: 高度赞扬)
He says you graduated top of your class at Georgetown. When was this?
15 years ago.
And you spent two years at....-Crozier, Abram&Abbott
Good firm.
Will says you clocked the highest billable hours there. Why did you leave?
