6 G) `2 L# b9 U2 s6 B3 h  @M: 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？
4 P5 {7 F. K; o  q
8 p& m, E9 l1 ^$ F  O( ~( AM: 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。

5 l" N0 ]$ e7 ^! k% \! A0 v; O6 RM: We were so wasted that we couldn't even stand up straight.
5 i+ S* c: J* |
& K2 U( R3 I& v% O+ tL: 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。

( U4 c# P( t: E2 a& }5 `M: I know. My best friend from high school came to visit, and we usually get wasted when we meet.
$ r* T: Y8 v* E# T6 {
; r" V! g9 G' ^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。

M: Ugh. It always seems like a lot of fun when I get completely wasted, but the next day, I regret it.

6 q# K+ K+ J; Z" Y  i& O; X5 n+ [L: 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。

3 s/ [: O, s; ^& L7 e% c- D$ q0 UM: 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。

) @  I" u: A; a. iM: Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.

L: 研究生要缺太多课可不是开玩笑的。得了，我看你还是先洗一个澡，再喝点茶，这样可能会好些。

! G# o  T( r- K" a5 _& R1 _0 ^+ jM: Okay, I'll try.

L: Michael，你觉得怎么样，好点吗？快，我们走吧！

M: Li Hua, don't speak so loudly. I still have a headache. I think you get a kick out of watching me suffer.

( N  j1 f. f: Q: IL: 你说什么？你想踢我？

! N2 C( u  H9 j6 MM: No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.

( H  u9 @) u5 M$ I  V* LL: 噢，to get a kick out of something意思就是为了什么事感到很开心。 这个kick跟踢球的kick是同一个字吗？
* U" H, W' q6 ?$ z9 T

$ W. l# [; V& @3 c" _. z4 l
L: 我干吗看见你难受我就高兴呢？ 你是自作自受！

- K; R8 j/ r- T3 e6 _/ SM: I know, I know...you're a good friend. You get a kick out of helping people, not watching them suffer.

  n, g& @/ F) i1 K8 \L: 这你说得还象样，我才不愿意看见别人难受，我很高兴帮助别人。帮助象你这样的美国学生学中文我就很高兴。

" u( E% d, t+ ^1 W6 _0 J" }L: 偶然喝醉一次，看看老的卡通片也不能说自己没有用嘛。你看到你的学生英语有进步，不也让你很高兴吗？

M: Yes, I guess I do get a kick out of watching my students learn.

$ X0 d/ ^6 ]. X+ J3 OL: Michael, 走吧！嗨，看完展览要不要再去喝个酩酊大醉呀？

L: 我只是开个玩笑而已。不过，我倒是希望你这辈子再也不要喝那么多酒了！

1 }' l0 F( H, C7 Q' k7 ?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。
