Sam 念完了日程表上的所有安排,但Susan 觉得自己好像还计划了什么其他
的事情。Sam 看到她工作过于紧张劳累,建议她抽空去享受一下鸟语花香。
Susan : What else? Come on, Sam…
Sam : You work too hard, Susan. When was your last day off?
Susan : Hmm. I can't remember. Sam : You really ought to take some
time off. Susan : What for ?
Sam : To enjoy the simple things in life …
Susan : I know , Sam. Maybe soon. Sam : To smell the flowers. Susan
: Oh , wait a minute. What's today's date ?
Sam : Today is the twelfth. Why?
Susan : It seems to me I scheduled something else. Sam : There's
nothing else in the appointment book. Susan : I'm sure I did. Oh , well,
I'll probably remember it later. Sam: I hope it isn't important. Susan
: Hmm. It's probably nothing. OK , let's get started. Would you call
Priscilla Smith at FAO Schwarz, please ?
Sam : Right.
Later that morning…
Sam : These are the models from the Japanese film maker. Susan :
Thank you. Just put them on my desk. Sam: And the new drawings for the
toy spaceship. Susan: Wonderful. That was fast. Sam: We have a new artist.
She's very talented.
「语言点精讲」
1. You really ought to take some time off.你真的应该休息一下。
ought to do sth.:应该做某事。ought to的口语说法的发音为awta. take
some time off :抽出时间(休息一下,放松一下)。
2. What for ?
为什么?在这里相当于“Why ?”
3. To enjoy the simple things in life …
享受一下人生的小小乐趣……
the simple things in life :人生的小乐趣。这里simple things 指的是
轻松愉快的谈话,欣赏美丽的天空,或是散步之类的简单但是令人感到放松和快
乐的事。
4. To smell the flowers.去享受一下鸟语花香。这个短语场用来指“轻松
一下,放松一下,休息一会儿”。
5. What's today's date? Today is the twelfth.用“What's today's date
?”提问时,问的是日期,“今天是(几月)几号?”
用“What day is it today?”提问时,问的则是“今天是星期几?”
the twelfth :这里表示日期,指12号。在表示日期时,使用序数词。
6. It seems to me I scheduled something else. 我好像还安排了一项别
的日程。
It seems to …:好像是…
schedule在这里用作动词,“将…列入计划,排入日程”。

“It‘s probably no big deal. ”以及“It’s probably no big thing.”
