李華終于把明天要交的一份報(bào)告寫完了。她松了一口氣,想出去輕松一下。她決定先去看看Michael在干什么。今天,李華會學(xué)到兩個(gè)常用語:dumb blonde和bimbo.
M: Hey, Li Hua. What brings you here?
L: 沒事。剛寫完明天要交的報(bào)告,想休息一下。哎,你在看電視劇Friends呀?我看過,我很喜歡Pheobe. 就是那個(gè)金發(fā)女孩,她真滑稽。
M: Yeah, she's a real dumb blonde.
L: 你叫她dumb blonde? 什么意思呀? Dumb不是指一個(gè)人很笨嗎?blonde是金發(fā)。很笨的金發(fā)女郎啊?
M: You're right. Dumb blonde. We often joke that blonde women are usually pretty but not very intelligent.
L: 噢,原來你們老把金發(fā)女郎說成是很漂亮,可是卻很笨。 象Pheobe也一樣,很漂亮,但是老說傻話,也是個(gè)dumb blonde.可是,說人家笨不是很不禮貌嗎?
M: Yes, that's why we would never say this to someone's face. It's usually only used as a joke behind people's backs.
L: 原來這是作為笑話來講的,絕對不能當(dāng)著一個(gè)金發(fā)女郎的面說dumb blonde. Michael,你真認(rèn)為金發(fā)的女人真的都很笨嗎?
M: No, we often used the term as a joke. Most of the jokes about dumb blondes are not true.
L: 我想也是,有金發(fā)的人不見得就是比別人笨。Michael, 你給我講一個(gè)關(guān)于dumb blonde的笑話吧!
M: OK. A crying blonde asked a policeman for help to find her lost dog. The policeman suggested that she put an ad in the paper. The blonde responds: "I can't, because my dog can't read." Li Hua, do you understand the joke?
L: 聽懂了。一個(gè)金發(fā)女郎的狗丟了。她一面哭一面要一個(gè)警察幫她把狗找回來。警察建議她在報(bào)上登個(gè)廣告。可是,這個(gè)金發(fā)女郎說:“不行,我的狗不識字。” Michael, 我才不信有這么笨的人。
L: Michael, 那天我們上歷史課的時(shí)候,那個(gè)女學(xué)生問教授誰是美國的第一任總統(tǒng)。這可真傻,不過她不是金發(fā)女郎。那我該怎么說她呢?
M: Well, you can call her a bimbo. Bimbo is a very dumb woman, not necessarily a blonde.
L: 你的意思是,bimbo可以指笨的女人,不管她是不是金發(fā)女郎。
M: That's right. Remember last week in class, a girl asked who won World War II, the Germans or the Japanese? What a silly question, she's a real bimbo.
L: 對,我記得!她問第二次大戰(zhàn)是德國人勝還是日本人勝,提得出這樣問題的人才真是個(gè)bimbo.
M: Yeah, it's scary that an American did not even know who our first president was or who won World War II. But it's still not nice to call her bimbo, though.
L: 我知道,雖然提這樣的問題很傻, 不過也不能當(dāng)她們的面叫她們bimbo. 這樣會傷害她們自尊的。
M: I know you wouldn't. Just want to warn you.
L: 喲,Michael, 我和一個(gè)朋友約好在中國城見面的,我得去搭地鐵了。我要來不及了!
M: To Chinatown? Two blocks away!You can walk there in 5 minutes, why do you want to take subway? You're such a bimbo!
L: 噢,再過兩條街就是中國城?我還以為要坐地鐵呢!嗨, Michael, 我路不熟這也算bimbo呀!你真沒禮貌!我走了!
M: Sorry, bye!
今天李華學(xué)到兩個(gè)常用語,一個(gè)是:dumb blonde, 這是用來笑話那些金發(fā)女郎,看起來很漂亮,但是腦子很笨。另一個(gè)是:bimbo.Bimbo是指笨的女人,不管是不是金發(fā)。
