参考翻译: 

-- “Would you like an ice cream?”

-- “You bet!”

【句子】And then, one thing led to another… and before I knew it, we were shopping.   【Friends-S2E2】

【发音】[ænd] [ðen] [wʌn] [θɪŋ] [led] [tʊ] [əˈnʌð.əʳ]  [ænd] [bɪfɔ:(r)] [aɪ] [nju:] [ɪt] [wi:] [wɜ:(r)] ['ʃɒpɪŋ]/['ʃɑ:pɪŋ]  

【发音技巧】and then不完全失去爆破；led to完全失去爆破；and before 完全失去爆破；

【翻译】但是后来，事情一件件地接连发生，我自己还没弄明白咋回事呢，我们俩就一起去逛街了。

【适用场合】

前面一句话是：

Look, when it started, I was just trying to be nice to her, because she was my brother’s girlfriend.

你听我说，刚开始的时候，我只是想对她友善一些，因为她毕竟是我哥哥的女朋友。

今天我们讲一下什么叫做

one thing leads to another

字面的意思：一件事情导致了另外一件事情的发生。

其实就形容好几件事情，像多米诺骨牌一样，接连发生，一连串地发生；

If one thing leads to another, there is a series of events in which each event was caused by the previous one:

eg: At first, we were just dancing together, but one thing led to another, and I ended up in bed with him.

一开始，我们只是在一起跳舞，但是后来，不知怎么的，接二连三地，我们就同枕共眠了。

eg: You know how it is: you try to make one small improvement to your house, but then one thing leads to another, and you end up repainting the entire first floor.

你知道，事情是这样的：一开始你打算只是稍微给你的房子做个小小的修缮；但是事情一件接一件地发生，你把整个第一层楼都重新粉刷了。

让我想到以前有人举过一个例子，一开始只是想换餐桌的花瓶，结果家里整套装修都全重新弄了一遍。

eg: We were just going to meet for coffee, but one thing led to another and we spent the whole night walking around the city and talking.

我们一开始只是打算见个面喝杯咖啡的，但是后来，非常顺其自然地（进一步接触），最后我们花了整晚在城里压马路，聊天。

eg: He offered me a ride home one night, and, well, one thing led to another and now we're engaged!

有一天晚上他载我回家送了我一程，然后，嗯，接下来事情顺其自然地发生，现在我们俩已经订婚啦！

【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】

I never thought I'd be a president, but after they closed down the university where I was a professor, I became a kind of spokesman. One thing led to another and so here I am today.
