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.
2 b) |; l3 |" y5 ^, z2 u8 _* T
L: Got wasted? 你说你们浪费了好多钱呀？

( |' d7 a6 k# w% z, TM: No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.
- C2 U7 s3 x7 d' ^
1 @- f2 Z, P; ]. z. 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。

  z1 u2 e7 C' Y* D5 y; c+ `4 v7 y/ FM: We were so wasted that we couldn't even stand up straight.
1 u) }6 K1 z! n! [, ^
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.
8 R/ O# q8 N# i) Z$ U! i
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。

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.

: T: o+ `1 D- z9 gL: 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。

% k1 O8 w3 ~" P6 L; J; ^. [6 RM: Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.
) b: M& m$ b' T$ z$ j
L: 研究生要缺太多课可不是开玩笑的。得了，我看你还是先洗一个澡，再喝点茶，这样可能会好些。
- J: O) T# h" o& {4 \
M: Okay, I'll try.
* @, g, P. B2 q. U( S3 _
L: Michael，你觉得怎么样，好点吗？快，我们走吧！
* R7 ?% K+ G! {, r6 o
M: Li Hua, don't speak so loudly. I still have a headache. I think you get a kick out of watching me suffer.

L: 你说什么？你想踢我？

M: No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.

, Z. E$ v0 E6 Z- z3 ML: 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？
. C8 M! P! U9 y# Y2 I  I: J) m
  C/ r/ ?) V6 Y; b4 }M: That's right.

L: 我干吗看见你难受我就高兴呢？ 你是自作自受！

& t! r" u$ G% P) UM: I know, I know...you're a good friend. You get a kick out of helping people, not watching them suffer.
1 p; @) U* n5 Y+ z2 @* L
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。

  t0 c1 N3 \: V) e/ DM: I'm so useless. I only get a kick out of doing stupid things, like getting wasted or watching old cartoons.

: P/ T+ R. g. E! |3 @3 @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？

" s7 w2 C0 k0 U+ wM: Yes, I guess I do get a kick out of watching my students learn.

: R# L+ ?6 H. Z$ Y" E' UL: Michael, 走吧！嗨，看完展览要不要再去喝个酩酊大醉呀？
& m, M5 S( r0 N( G
' t8 p* j% L6 e. k& PM: 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.

) Z" i; R# G* F  n6 b1 JL: 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！

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。
