李華今天請(qǐng)Larry 到家里來(lái)一起看電視轉(zhuǎn)播的世界杯比賽。今天是美國(guó)隊(duì)對(duì)
捷克隊(duì)。李華會(huì)學(xué)到兩個(gè)常用語(yǔ):make a big stink和to be creamed.
(sound of knocking door)
LH:請(qǐng)進(jìn)來(lái)! Come on in , Larry!
LL: Oh , hey there, Li Hua , I see the game has started. What's
the big stink ?
LH:球賽剛開(kāi)始。你說(shuō)這兒有臭味?我沒(méi)有聞到什么臭味呀!
LL: No , I don't mean your apartment is stinking. I was asking why
the soccer players are making a big stink. Big stink means making a big
fuss or complaining.
LH:噢,你是問(wèn)電視上這些球員在吵什么?嗨,美國(guó)隊(duì)踢進(jìn)了一個(gè)球,可是
沒(méi)有得分,因?yàn)椴门信卸ㄊд`,所以就吵了起來(lái)。
LL: So , the players are mad, and the U.S. soccer coach is making
a big stink by arguing with the referee.
LH:是啊,美國(guó)隊(duì)個(gè)個(gè)氣得火冒三丈。美國(guó)教練通常比較低調(diào),這次也忍不
住跟裁判爭(zhēng)執(zhí),表示強(qiáng)烈不滿。
LL: Yeah , but I don't think making a big stink about the call is
going to change the referee's mind.
LH:我也這么想呢,大吵大鬧是不會(huì)改變裁判的決定的,還不如就算了,接
著比賽就好了嘛。
LL: This reminds me of when I played baseball as a kid. Every once
in a while a parent would get upset with the umpire and make a big stink.
LH:這不僅是你小時(shí)候打棒球的情況,現(xiàn)在也是那樣。美國(guó)家長(zhǎng)特別重視孩
子的體育活動(dòng),有比賽必到現(xiàn)場(chǎng),為孩子打氣。覺(jué)得不公平還會(huì)對(duì)裁判大喊大叫。
我父母只有在我學(xué)習(xí)成績(jī)不好的時(shí)候才會(huì)嚴(yán)厲批評(píng)。
LL: Li Hua , weren't you the perfect student? I can't imagine your
parents having anything to make a stink about.
LH:誰(shuí)說(shuō)他們不生氣?我上中學(xué)的時(shí)候,有個(gè)學(xué)期我的數(shù)學(xué)成績(jī)很差。我父
母就特別生氣。這對(duì)他們來(lái)說(shuō)才是件大事。
LL: Well , they had your best interests at heart. Say , you know
what I want to make a big stink about now ?
LH:我當(dāng)然知道他們是為了我好。You want to make a big stink?有什么
事讓你不滿意呀?
LL: Where is the snack food? You can't watch soccer without having
some snacks.
LH:嗨,你們美國(guó)人呀,看球就非得吃零食。不過(guò),這不是什么大事。You
don't have to make a big stink. 廚房里有好多吃的,你自己去拿吧。
*******
LL: Have some chips, Li Hua. Hmm……it looks like the U.S. is getting
creamed.
LH: Creamed? Cream不是奶油嗎?
LL: No , creamed mean getting beaten. And badly.
LH:噢,creamed 在這里的意思是被打敗,而且是慘敗。
LL:That's right. Say , Li Hua , why are you rooting for the U.S.
team, anyway ?
LH:我為什么幫美國(guó)隊(duì)呀?你忘啦,中國(guó)隊(duì)在亞洲地區(qū)賽中輸給了科威特隊(duì),
根本沒(méi)有資格參加世界杯賽。
LL: Oh , yeah , I remember that. They were creamed pretty badly
- Six to one, as I recall.
LH:沒(méi)錯(cuò),輸給科威特六比一!別說(shuō)了,一提起中國(guó)隊(duì)的慘敗,我就傷心。
所以現(xiàn)在我支持美國(guó)隊(duì),因?yàn)槲以诿绹?guó)留學(xué),可沒(méi)想到美國(guó)隊(duì)也要輸了。The US
team is going to be creamed !
LL: The Czech Republic team is really good. I am not surprised the
U.S. is getting creamed.
LH:美國(guó)隊(duì)看來(lái)是輸定了,我們別看球了。出去玩吧。
LL: It's a nice day, Li Hua. Let's go out and play some badminton.
LH: Larry,打羽毛球你可不是我的對(duì)手,說(shuō)不定會(huì)被打得一敗涂地呦。I'm
sure you'll get creamed.
LL: I tell you what, Li Hua , if you cream me at badminton , I
promise ……
LH:你保證什么?
LL: I promise not to make a big stink about it !
