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: Got wasted? 你说你们浪费了好多钱呀？

; M0 ~/ ?& C3 B" P; B; [M: No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.

M: We were so wasted that we couldn't even stand up straight.
: u; }, R; f, \: ?! u
L: 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。

M: I know. My best friend from high school came to visit, and we usually get wasted when we meet.

; n0 Q8 ~4 P, Y, w- H) JL: 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。

M: Eat something? Are you kidding? I can't even open my eyes without feeling sick.

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

0 e" S; p9 c3 I5 bM: No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.

L: 噢，to get a kick out of something意思就是为了什么事感到很开心。 这个kick跟踢球的kick是同一个字吗？

M: That's right.

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

# W, |3 s' {& _' n2 wL: 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？

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。
