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！

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.
4 E# Y, T) {  z, Y
) G* N6 l4 D" w4 N" o8 T3 NL: 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。

7 y4 `$ n# }. ^- Z0 i5 LM: We were so wasted that we couldn't even stand up straight.
& X* _3 M0 a2 b" r2 n. l# K
2 o3 {2 W3 {, a  ]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。
. t2 q4 v+ e- P8 P
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。
6 o1 E7 g; o  T
M: Ugh. It always seems like a lot of fun when I get completely wasted, but the next day, I regret it.
1 U9 d1 H2 Z1 B; g# v, X
  T, M, A6 p2 x5 z# ^3 I6 f+ U" ^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。
- E6 r# n* C1 ?& `& u
& @/ M3 O# a4 W% L" ^M: Eat something? Are you kidding? I can't even open my eyes without feeling sick.
4 t9 S1 s- `0 r/ G7 e- n
' k5 Z- d4 ^/ I! sL: 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。

* Q' S3 t. q. v3 |% e2 h" V9 lM: Yes, I'm in graduate school, and I can't afford to miss too many classes.

* p0 Q" i5 ?2 ^% I3 w6 {# GL: 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。

M: Okay, I'll try.
7 x5 }. q& O; G. i
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.
' F% H& j! B& w: K1 z0 X6 n
L: 你说什么？你想踢我？

M: No, I said you get a kick out of watching me suffer. That means, you enjoy watching me suffer.

  ^0 u: Y( U1 p7 i- JL: 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？

4 k) i5 @* ]3 I+ n0 S4 zM: That's right.

L: 我干吗看见你难受我就高兴呢？ 你是自作自受！
( f" w9 b% y& G5 q5 g
M: I know, I know...you're a good friend. You get a kick out of helping people, not watching them suffer.

4 Z9 ^! ?  w$ B# L# aL: 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。
! d) X' V/ U- S- {1 B# q
M: I'm so useless. I only get a kick out of doing stupid things, like getting wasted or watching old cartoons.
7 q2 D" c- {' X1 Q
$ r  V* F: I* L$ `! q/ y& t7 H. YL: 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？
( L+ }9 \9 C& \' c+ s* h$ t9 }
M: Yes, I guess I do get a kick out of watching my students learn.

, J2 S: g1 y7 x1 G5 K- ML: Michael, 走吧！嗨，看完展览要不要再去喝个酩酊大醉呀？
