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。

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.

L: Got wasted? 你说你们浪费了好多钱呀？

) Y  ?; ?! t: n+ OM: No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.

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。

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。

) f$ N' ?* A; l  _% a, R! R2 J' 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。

M: Ugh. It always seems like a lot of fun when I get completely wasted, but the next day, I regret it.

8 V  I% c; w5 B- U- N# cL: 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。

M: Eat something? Are you kidding? I can't even open my eyes without feeling sick.
* T& v# f1 V- `6 `& w0 P
* B$ \1 {7 A& j. `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。

) P7 z) E, o$ k% Y# IM: Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.

: o- n  {& u; L. v  Y0 xL: 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。

: I7 Q! Z# a! A4 M9 Q- JM: Li Hua, don't speak so loudly. I still have a headache. I think you get a kick out of watching me suffer.
# J" [. m& o7 C

* |9 p5 h8 _# b# ^
M: No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.
% y# Y; y. K. W' `- p
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？

M: That's right.

L: 我干吗看见你难受我就高兴呢？ 你是自作自受！
  b# I* y  e# C! i$ J
M: I know, I know...you're a good friend. You get a kick out of helping people, not watching them suffer.

( Y4 w  L8 F! LL: 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。
) Y. V9 v' e8 A0 ?2 Z* ^
M: I'm so useless. I only get a kick out of doing stupid things, like getting wasted or watching old cartoons.

( t; t$ H/ C  b  ML: 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？

; ]7 q0 Y; M- l3 ]M: Yes, I guess I do get a kick out of watching my students learn.
5 M' ?% ?& e2 S- ]* R, O
L: Michael, 走吧！嗨，看完展览要不要再去喝个酩酊大醉呀？

, C4 I8 v6 {6 i( pM: Arrrgh! Li Hua, you really do get a kick out of tormenting me. I'll never get wasted for the rest of my life. I promise.

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！

. H. _. I" `* P- l$ \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。
