律所里新人请客是个传统，但很多时候并不光是庆祝，看看Harvey是怎么说的？
HARVEY: He doesn’t get that doing good work isn’t the whole job. Part of getting it is that things like the dinner actually matter, even when you don’t think they do. Look, you were giving me shit this morning because I come and go when I want to. You know why I can do that? Because when I got here, I dominated. They thought I worked 100 hours a day. Now, no matter what time I get in, nobody questions my ability to get the job done. Get it through your head. First impressions last. You start behind the eight ball, you’ll never get in front.
词汇句型：
- Venue 在日常口语中可以指聚会地点，而法律语境中一般指审判地、犯罪地点。而这里是指举行Rookie dinner的聚会地点。
- Oh, drats. (表示厌烦) 见鬼，讨厌，该死，倒霉;
- long-standing 长期存在的；存在已久的；
- Don’t look so blue! 不要这样愁眉苦脸/垂头丧气
- make partner 成为合伙人
- behind the eight ball 处于不利的境地。这里的the eight ball是指美式桌球中的8号黑球，打过桌球的都知道，这个球要放到最后打，但是，当桌面上还有其他球时，如果母球滚到了8号球后面，那就相当做了一个“斯洛克”，情况就非常不利了。
- foodie 吃货
- cuisine 烹饪
