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！

0 M, W9 _6 O: y$ V" ~6 zM: 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.

L: Got wasted? 你说你们浪费了好多钱呀？

M: No, Li Hua, when I say we got wasted I mean we got very very drunk.

L: 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。

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。

6 Y: I) g4 J) s" Y2 }" [M: I know. My best friend from high school came to visit, and we usually get wasted when we meet.

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。

, P0 W* M* d6 k/ p' `: g/ q; wL: 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。

" R7 s8 W% d3 d) ]3 h: E% Y4 RM: Eat something? Are you kidding? I can't even open my eyes without feeling sick.

L: 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。

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。
