流行美语口语 Lesson 35 - wasted & to get a kick

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。

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.

L: Got wasted? 你说你们浪费了好多钱呀？

M: No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.

) R+ j5 C( D" {3 P' fL: 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。

M: We were so wasted that we couldn't even stand up straight.

* h' {% p6 ~, d3 CL: 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。

& a0 u5 ~9 K% d4 v  WM: I know. My best friend from high school came to visit, and we usually get wasted when we meet.

' [% |, c% N" O- b6 h! rL: 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.

L: 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。

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。

M: Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.

L: Michael，你觉得怎么样，好点吗？快，我们走吧！

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。

M: I'm so useless. I only get a kick out of doing stupid things, like getting wasted or watching old cartoons.

L: 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？

L: Michael, 走吧！嗨，看完展览要不要再去喝个酩酊大醉呀？

M: 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.

5 i* _1 r6 E! k7 x. tL: 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！

3 a4 R5 K- o" j9 F2 ?* B+ f9 i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。
