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。 8 v1 j" w7 U; h9 T: q) }$ ]/ W , P6 B0 M- \2 E D6 u3 Z+ C; x9 zL: 嗨， Michael，快走吧，该去看展览了！ ' c* b5 S( ~" H/ v& d' Y6 i* T 3 c( F$ c( K, @: e) I' l; UM: Give me a moment, Li Hua.

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。/ U2 t4 d+ S$ m6 t7 C! E, `
