第叁部 第五课: wasted , to get a kick out of something
- 昨天晚上 Michael 和一个老同学一起出去玩儿，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。
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 嗨， Michael，快走吧，我们该去看展览了！
- Ah…, 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.
- Got wasted? 你是说你们浪费了好多钱呀？
- No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.
- 哦，你们到酒吧去啦；你说的 wasted 意思是喝酒喝得酩酊大醉，不是指浪费啊？喔，那你说的 wasted 是怎麼拼的呢？
- W-a-s-t-e-d. We were so wasted that I couldn't even stand up straight.
- 哎哟，你们真是要命耶，喝得站都站不直了，干嘛要喝那麼多呢？
- I know. My best friend from high school came to visit, and we usually get wasted when we meet.
- 中学时的好朋友来看你，一高兴就喝多了，这我可以理解。在中国啊，我们老同学见面的时候，总是会开个 party，往往也喝好多酒，可是，我们不见得会醉到像你这种程度嘛。
- Ugh. It always seems like a lot of fun when I get completely wasted, but the next day, I regret it.
- 喝得大醉的时候啊，你觉得很好玩，到第二天，你就后悔了。得了，你得换换衣服，吃点东西。我们得早点去耶，否则人会太多了。
- Ah! Eat something? Are you kidding? I can't even open my eyes without feeling sick.
- 啊？你睁开眼睛就想吐呀？那是不能吃东西喔。唉哟，Michael，还好今天是星期六，否则啊你整天都不能上课，什麼事也做不了。
- Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.
- 研究生啊要缺太多课，这可不是开玩笑的。得了，我看你啊，还是先洗个澡，再喝点茶，这样可能会好些。
- Okay, I'll try.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- Michael，你觉得怎麼样，好点了吗？快吧，我们快走嘛！
- Li Hua, don't speak so loudly. I still have a headache. I think you get a kick out of watching me suffer.
- 你说什麼啊？你想踢我啊？
- No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.
- 噢哦～，to get a kick out of something 意思就是為了什麼事感到很开心。疑？那这个 kick 跟踢球的 kick 是同一个字吗？
- That's right. Get, g-e-t, a kick, k-i-c-k.
- 哎哟，我干嘛看见你难受我就会高兴呢？你啊，是自作自受！
- I know, I know... you're a good friend. You get a kick out of helping people, not watching them suffer.
- 这你说得还像样，我啊，不愿意看见别人难受，我很高兴帮助别人的；帮助像你这样的美国学生学中文，我是很高兴。
- I'm so useless. I only get a kick out of doing stupid things, like getting wasted or watching old cartoons.
- 偶尔喝醉一次，看看老的卡通片，也不能说自己是没有用嘛。你看到你的学生英语有进步，不也让你很高兴吗？
- Yes, I guess I do get a kick out of watching my students learn.
- 哎，Michael, 快走吧！嗨～，看完展览后你还要不要再去喝个酩酊大醉呀？
- 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.
- 哎哟，我只是开玩笑而已啦；不过啊，我倒真是希望你这辈子再也别喝那麼多酒了！
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 别看 Michael 昨天晚上喝醉了，今天还是晕乎乎的，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」；另外一个是： to get a kick out of something，那就是「為某件事情感到很高兴」。
