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。 4 m9 s% N/ J) t8 x% \% x. s/ p6 W* s+ D0 j w t$ _& z

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。 . A# k3 I0 Z: ? \) E6 q * A6 Y7 y6 O. t& ~M: Ugh. It always seems like a lot of fun when I get completely wasted, but the next day, I regret it.+ F' {. d, u V. T* Y

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。 ! C8 m- X6 i* Z5 `" y$ Z1 o3 \% \# _" {0 P* U2 J) s
