Filthy, "filthy," is another word for dirty. “骯臟的”是“臟的”另一種表示。

So, the rug on the floor looks dirty, so she gets "out the vacuum" and vacuums it. 地板上的地毯臟兮兮的，所以她拿出真空吸塵器清理了一下。

The vacuum, "vacuum," is a machine that removes dirt from the floor – from carpet or rugs - by sucking the dirt out. 真空吸塵器，是通過吸附，來清除地板或地毯污垢的機器。

Vacuum can also be a verb, so when you say, "I'm going to vacuum my rugs," “真空”也可以作動詞，當(dāng)你說“我要把地毯真空一下”，

you mean you're going to use a vacuum to clean your rugs. 意思就是，你要用真空吸塵器來清潔你的地毯。

Lucy picks "up around the room and puts things away." 露西在收拾房間，把東西都收起來放好。

but in this case, to pick up means that Lucy is going around and putting things where they belong 但是，這種情況，意思就是露西四處走動，把東西放回它們所屬的地方

–taking the newspaper out and throwing in away or making sure that the table looks nice, that it's been dusted. ——報紙扔掉，或者確保桌子看起來很整潔，一塵不染。

This is to pick up - to take things that don't belong in the room and move them somewhere else. 這就是收拾——拿走不屬于房間的東西，放到別的地方。

When you move them somewhere else, we say that you are putting them away. 當(dāng)你把它們放到別的地方，我們就說你正在把它們收起來。
