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。! J. |* D# B7 v! y9 l& s& |. _) s

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。 ! j0 o) X9 r; {3 {' f& v* p' s / A$ t$ F& h9 X7 t* fAudio as following:0 O- \) _7 Y) }8 }& z0 O
