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。 9 L! s3 z5 @7 S( a $ N, w& _# F: {. ]$ HL: 嗨， Michael，快走吧，该去看展览了！ , Q8 q5 P" M& }9 k$ {' k" |& O9 I( Z5 y3 X& x

L: 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。 / e7 e; w: V2 ^: x8 Y / f- y6 V$ Z$ E! B! UM: Ugh.

" U" x E3 v; _$ W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。 - O1 i2 c# |% } ' @: D1 e- z8 g) j1 z/ yAudio as following: 5 w* J8 Y8 J" K8 u4 e
