第八部 第十课: bling , booze
- Larry 和李华在书店裡看书．李华在看一本流行时装杂誌．今天李华会学到两个常用语： bling 和 booze.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- I just found an interesting book on World War II. What are you reading, Li Hua?
- 我啊，我在看一本时装杂誌，他们啊在批评茱莉亚罗勃兹，说她在奥斯卡颁奖典礼上，戴了太多的 bling．疑？ Larry，甚麼是 bling啊？
- Oh, that's a new word for really big, shiny jewelry. Usually, a bling or a bling-bling is a piece of jewelry that has big diamonds.
- 哦～，我懂了， bling 就是指又大又亮的珠宝首饰，通常啊还镶有钻石的首饰．哎， Larry，你看喔，在这张照片裡，茱莉亚罗勃兹戴了长长的钻石耳环，还有钻石项链，再加上大手鐲．哎哟～，真的，太多 bling-bling 啦！
- Yeah, that is a lot of shiny jewelry, but I thought girls liked that sort of thing. Don't you wish you had a lot of bling?
- 我想是吧．哪个女人不喜欢亮晶晶的珠宝呢！不过啊我觉得，一次戴太多的珠宝好像有点过份哎．Larry，你说呢？
- I'm not the best person to ask for fashion advice. To me, all that bling is really just a bunch of expensive rocks that don't do anything.
- 你说的没错啦．这些亮晶晶的珠宝啊，说穿了，还不就是些昂贵的石头．对了，Larry，bling 除了用来形容首饰以外，我能不能把一件亮晶晶的礼服也说是 bling 呢？
- I haven't heard the word used that way. I think that bling only refers to jewelry.
- 哦～，原来， bling 只能用来形容珠宝首饰啊．Larry，你看，这张照片裡啊，妮可基曼戴的戒指真漂亮．杂誌说，这个戒指啊至少价值一百万美元呢！
- That has to be the biggest ring I have ever seen. I can't imagine spending a million dollars on a rock!
- 你们男人啊！永远也不会理解為甚麼女人要花这麼多钱买珠宝首饰．这种事只有女人才懂啦！
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 哎，Larry，这篇文章说 "Booze on College Campuses." ．大学校园裡的 booze！ Booze 是一种毒品吗？
- Booze is another word for alcohol, like beer or whiskey.
- 哦～，原来 booze 在这裡指的是酒啊！这一篇文章说很多美国大学裡都有学生酗酒的问题，不只危害学生的身体健康，有的时候还会导致意外呢，这是真的吗？
- Sadly, many college students drink a lot of booze. They study during the week and then they go to parties on the weekends. Booze is a major part of most college parties.
- 是哎！我也注意到了，很多美国大学生喜欢在週末开 party，那，总是少不了酒．对了，Larry，是不是所有的酒都可以称為 booze？那，葡萄酒是不是也算 booze 呢？
- Yes, wine can be called booze, and so can rum and vodka.
- 哦～，这麼说， booze 可以指葡萄酒，也可以指烈酒．Larry，你是不是也经常参加派对，喝酒狂欢啊？
- Very funny, Li Hua. You know I don't have enough time to go to many parties. I do drink booze once in a while, but not all the time.
- 嗯，偶尔啊喝一点酒其实还可以．我呢比较喜欢喝葡萄酒，其他的酒啊我就不感兴趣了．你呢？你喜欢喝什麼样的酒？
- Well, I prefer to drink beer. Stronger booze will give me a headache the next day.
- 我也不爱喝烈酒，除了像你说的啊，喝多了会头疼，我觉得啊烈酒喝起来有汽油的味道呢。
- You might as well not to drink it!
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 今天李华学到两个常用语，第一个是： bling，或者可以说 bling-bling，这是指「又大又亮的珠宝首饰」．李华学到的另一个常用语是： booze，这是指喝的「酒」，包括各式各样的酒。
