大家都在關(guān)注:19年7月國(guó)際學(xué)校開(kāi)放日全國(guó)優(yōu)質(zhì)國(guó)際高中國(guó)際初中國(guó)際小學(xué)推薦
Larry 早上起來(lái)正在看報(bào)紙,忽然接到小燕的電話(huà)。今天我們要學(xué)兩個(gè)常用
語(yǔ):short fuse和out of this world.
LL: Hello?
XY: Hey Larry!你起床了?昨天玩到那么晚,我不會(huì)把你吵醒了吧!
LL: Hey no problem. I was just reading the newspaper and drinking
a lot of water. I have quite a headache. I can't believe you bought so
many beers for me last night!
XY:我愿意!昨天我可能也喝多了點(diǎn),當(dāng)著你的面跟酒吧里的服務(wù)生吵架,
真不好意思,對(duì)不起了。
LL: Well , Xiaoyan, it's not really a problem at all. I mean ,
you tend to have a short fuse anyway.
XY: Short fuse 這是什么意思�。磕忝看味颊f(shuō)這些我聽(tīng)不懂的話(huà),真是急
死我了。
LL: There's a perfect example! When a person has a "short fuse,
" it means that they have a short temper - they get angry very easily !
Now don't get mad because I said this , or you will further prove
my point - haha !
XY:噢,你是說(shuō)我急脾氣啊。這我承認(rèn)。不過(guò),我更愿意聽(tīng)人家說(shuō)我是一個(gè)
“充滿(mǎn)激情”的女人。
LL: Having a short fuse can be a good thing, sometimes, but most
of the time , I must admit that it can be a bit intimidating or scary.
It's why I try my best to keep you from blowing your fuse - or erupting
in anger. It's ok , my new boss is like this - and I can handle it.
XY:你真覺(jué)得我的脾氣有些嚇人嗎?那我一定改正。對(duì)了,你下午有空嗎?
我請(qǐng)你吃午飯,而且還有新車(chē)接送。不是我吹,買(mǎi)車(chē)的時(shí)候討價(jià)還價(jià),我可
是鎮(zhèn)定自若,沒(méi)發(fā)脾氣。I did not blow my fuse!
LL: I'm impressed, Xiaoyan! Number one , you have a new car. Number
two , you didn't blow your fuse! So what time were you thinking , since
you have the car?
XY:下午一點(diǎn)怎么樣?這樣你還有時(shí)間“梳妝打扮”,以帥哥的形象出現(xiàn)在
我的面前。(笑)
LL: Ok. Do you need directions ?
XY:不用,我有全球定位系統(tǒng)。我保證,就算走丟了,我也不會(huì)打電話(huà)跟你
發(fā)脾氣。
LL: OK , just call me if there's a problem!
******
LL: Wow. Nice car! You must have saved your tip money for YEARS
to get such a nice one……
XY:勤儉節(jié)約可是我最大的優(yōu)點(diǎn)。
LL: Since you're driving , I'll pick the joint we'll go to. There's
a diner just down the street that's good.
XY:這家餐館從外面看起來(lái)好象不錯(cuò),我們進(jìn)去吧。
LL: So here's the menu. Their sandwiches are absolutely out of this
world.
XY: Out of this world?你吃他們的外星三明治吧。我只要個(gè)色拉就行了。
Larry ,有的時(shí)候,我真懷疑你是不是有點(diǎn)瘋狂,也許這就是你吸引人……
LL: Xiaoyan. "Out of this world" means really, really good. Excellent.
Superb. Delicious. The best.
XY:哦,out of this world 意思是好吃得不得了,簡(jiǎn)直非人間食物。那我
可得來(lái)一個(gè)。既然你對(duì)吃的東西這么在行,我能不能說(shuō)你的品味也是"out of this
world"呢?
LL: Ha ha. Yeah, but you're the first person to ever tell me that!
XY:真的嗎?那我再告訴你個(gè)秘密:我覺(jué)得你這個(gè)人也不是一般男人能比的
: You are out of this world!
LL: Um ……(embarrassed ) hey hey…… now, anyway , with the
sandwiches……
XY:服務(wù)生!給我們來(lái)兩個(gè)你們這兒最好的三明治,外加兩杯咖啡。希望你
們的咖啡也是香濃美味, out of this world!
LL: So , Xiaoyan, I wanted to tell you something ……
XY:你先聽(tīng)我說(shuō),我有個(gè)絕妙的主意,就是不知道你明天晚上是不是有空?
LL: That depends , Xiaoyan, because……
XY:我想帶你去見(jiàn)我父母。他們?cè)谶@里的僑界非�;钴S,我想讓他們認(rèn)識(shí)一
下你。
LL: Are you sure this is a good idea ?
XY:(嚴(yán)肅地)當(dāng)然是個(gè)好主意嘍!怎么會(huì)不是好主意呢?
LL: Well , perhaps they'd get the wrong impression. Perhaps I'm
getting the wrong impression from you , too.
XY:誤解?不會(huì)有什么誤解的。怎么樣,星期天下午五點(diǎn)我開(kāi)車(chē)來(lái)接你。咱
們就這么定了。
LL:(Reluctantly ) Ok , Xiaoyan. I must admit - your powers of
persuasion are out of this world, as well.
XY:沒(méi)錯(cuò),我最能說(shuō)服人了,你就聽(tīng)我一次吧!
我們今天學(xué)習(xí)了兩個(gè)常用語(yǔ)。一個(gè)是short fuse,意思是急脾氣。另一個(gè)是
out of this world ,意思是極其美妙。
