Xbfeng

昨天晚上Michael 和一个老同学一起出去玩，两个人都喝得酩酊大醉。现在李华来找他一起去看一个新的艺术展览。李华会学到两个常用语：wasted和 to get a kick out of something。
: K8 m! v# f5 x2 p
L: 嗨， Michael，快走吧，该去看展览了！

M: Give me a moment, Li Hua. Last night a friend and I went out to a bar and got wasted, so I don't feel very good right now.

, \& p* H6 X: Z5 I' |# b% vL: Got wasted? 你说你们浪费了好多钱呀？
' L6 K8 e6 A; r& s+ b) J/ n
M: No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.
# ?' G) d" j) F& c" {4 c
L: 噢，你们到酒吧去了。你说的wasted意思是喝酒喝得酩酊大醉，不是指浪费。

2 F& u% {7 s6 o9 i* L7 d) B& jM: We were so wasted that we couldn't even stand up straight.
! c4 p" W# Q+ @8 Q; r' A# X
L: 你们真是要命，喝得站都站不直。干吗要喝那么多呢？这么喝对你身体不好的。

" t/ p' x9 i) D: IM: I know. My best friend from high school came to visit, and we usually get wasted when we meet.

8 l8 u5 J6 b1 V3 g2 QL: 中学时的好朋友来看你，一高兴就喝多了，这我可以理解。在中国，老同学见面的时候，我们总是会开个party，往往喝好多酒，可是我们不见得会醉到象你这种程度。
# R5 Y* d: a: R) h2 h
) g' {& d0 `6 d0 cM: Ugh. It always seems like a lot of fun when I get completely wasted, but the next day, I regret it.

) j6 O0 a' y* |4 E2 HL: 是啊，喝得大醉的时候觉得很好玩，到第二天你就后悔了。得了，你得换换衣服，吃点东西。我们得早点去，否则人会太多了。

8 |, E8 g9 }" y& h  X2 nM: Eat something? Are you kidding? I can't even open my eyes without feeling sick.
' y% `5 s7 A  G4 Y
L: 哟，你睁开眼睛就想吐呀？那是不能吃东西。Michael，幸好今天是星期六，否则你整天就不能上课，什么事也做不了。
3 F: W0 _3 y  G3 z6 v0 ^9 V
M: Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.
, l% T* n5 o# a3 o
L: 研究生要缺太多课可不是开玩笑的。得了，我看你还是先洗一个澡，再喝点茶，这样可能会好些。
% `  |! E1 Q: q4 s" u

4 O3 G$ J; ]* X4 e0 C5 _L: 你说什么？你想踢我？

M: No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.
! ~; ~, S" q1 F5 l" M* }) J. m+ j
L: 噢，to get a kick out of something意思就是为了什么事感到很开心。 这个kick跟踢球的kick是同一个字吗？

% R8 b' ]! Y$ A! U5 e+ a9 T
L: 我干吗看见你难受我就高兴呢？ 你是自作自受！
+ O0 |+ H/ n3 E$ X0 A, t8 Y
M: I know, I know...you're a good friend. You get a kick out of helping people, not watching them suffer.

L: 这你说得还象样，我才不愿意看见别人难受，我很高兴帮助别人。帮助象你这样的美国学生学中文我就很高兴。

$ S1 J" P0 n! d& F2 H) HM: I'm so useless. I only get a kick out of doing stupid things, like getting wasted or watching old cartoons.

2 P" ^' e) r- i7 X1 DL: 偶然喝醉一次，看看老的卡通片也不能说自己没有用嘛。你看到你的学生英语有进步，不也让你很高兴吗？
/ V- m% r6 }( M( }3 u' s
M: Yes, I guess I do get a kick out of watching my students learn.

L: 我只是开个玩笑而已。不过，我倒是希望你这辈子再也不要喝那么多酒了！

别看Michael 昨晚喝醉了，今天还晕乎乎的。可是他教了李华两个很有用的常用语，一个是：wasted，那是指喝得大醉；另一个是：to get a kick out of something，那就是为某件事感到很高兴。这次的[流行美语]就到此结束，下次节目再见。
