第十部 第十二课: to crack somebody up , fess up
- Larry 和李华刚刚看完 Robin Williams 主演的一部新的喜剧片．两个人正準备离开戏院．今天李华学到两个常用语： to crack somebody up 和 fess up.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- That was great! Robin Williams really cracks me up!
- 这部电影啊真的很有意思，我笑得快流出眼泪了．对了，你刚才说 crack me up， crack 不是「破裂、裂开」的意思吗？这和好不好笑有什麼关係啊？
- If something or someone cracks you up, it means that it makes you laugh.
- 哦～， crack you up 就是让你发笑啊？你是说 Robin Williams 很好笑，我啊完全同意，我特别喜欢看他演的电影．特别是演喜剧片，每次啊都会让我笑得肚子疼呢！
- You know what else cracks me up?
- 还有什麼事情让你觉得好笑啊？我猜不出来哎！
- That joke you told me yesterday.
- 我昨天告诉你的笑话？喔！对，那个笑话啊，谁听了都笑个没完呢。
- After you told me the joke, I shared it with my friend, John. It really cracked him up, too. He was laughing so hard that I thought he was going to have a heart attack.
- 啊哈哈！你的朋友 John 笑得那麼厉害，你还以為他要发心臟病啦！那他肯定啊是个爱笑的人．哎！说到爱笑，我就是一个，我们家邻居那隻猫经常就让我笑。
- Why? What does it do? Tell you jokes?
- 哎哟，猫哪会讲笑话啊！ 那隻猫啊是经常爱玩自己的尾巴．那天它在沙发上為了玩自己的尾巴，结果，不小心从沙发上摔下来了，那个模样啊好逗喔！ That really cracks me up!
- That is cute. Animals crack me up, too. They do all kinds of silly things.
- 没错，很多小动物啊都好可爱，常常有一些特别好笑的举动．我就準备要养一隻宠物。
- Now, that idea cracks me up. You don't know how to take care of a pet!
- 哼！我想养小动物，这有什麼好笑？很多东西我都可以学嘛！
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- Li Hua, you look like there's something you want to tell me. Come on, fess up.
- 我是有事情想告诉你，不过，你先解释一下，什麼是 fess up 啊？
- To fess up is to confess or admit something.
- 哦～，原来， fess up 就是「承认、坦白」的意思啊．好吧！那我说了喔．你还记不记得我说过想养一隻宠物啊？我去了流浪动物收容所哎，而且，还领养了一隻小猫咪喔！
- That's great! But does your landlord know you have a pet now?
- 嗯～，这就是我在担心的地方，我～还不敢告诉我的房东．我怕他知道我在屋子裡养猫，他会生气。
- Why? Aren't you allowed to have pets in your apartment?
- 嗯～，其实 ...
- Come on, fess up.
- 我们是可以在公寓裡养宠物，但是我们应该先徵求房东的同意以后才可以的。
- And you didn't ask the landlord first, did you?
- 没有耶，我没有先徵询过他的意见，所以我现在才会担心嘛！
- Well, you'd better fess up to him soon. It's better if he finds out from you. Otherwise, you seem dishonest.
- 嗯～，你说的没错，要是被他发现我先斩后奏，他啊说不定会把我踢出去呢！我想我今天下午就告诉他，希望他答应让我保留我的小猫咪！ I'll fess up to him today!
