Larry 和李华正在一家洗衣店里洗衣服。今天李华会学到两个常用语:whoa
和booboo.
LL: Whoa , Li Hua , don't put so much detergent into the washing
machine !
LH:我放太多洗衣粉啦?那下回我就少放一些。对了,Larry ,你刚才说whoa,
那是西部牛仔经常说的话吗?你刚才说whoa是什么意思呀?
LL: Li Hua , have you been watching Westerns lately ? You are right.
Cowboys say "whoa" when they want their horses to slow down. LH :原来
我还真猜对了。在西部电影里,那些牛仔经常会说whoa,就是要他们的马儿慢下
来。所以你刚才说whoa,就是要我慢点,别倒太多洗衣粉下去。
LL: Right. Whoa, Li Hua , look at all the laundry that guy just
brought in!
LH:等等,Larry ,那个人是拿了一大包脏衣服进来,你说whoa是要他慢慢
洗吗?你又不认识他,跟你又有什么相干哪!
LL: No , this time I used "whoa" to express amazement. I was amazed
at the piles of laundry that guy just brought it. "Whoa" is an exclamationand
depending on how you say it , it can mean different things. LH :噢,
这儿的whoa是表示惊奇。你说了两次whao,可是意思完全不一样。看来,这个whao
可以表达不同的意思。
LL:You're absolutely right !
LH:Whoa, Larry,你没有必要摺衣服摺那么快嘛!我们还有很多衣服要洗,
得在这儿等上好长时间呢!
LL: Hey, that was a good use of "whoa." LH:还是得谢谢你这位老师
的指导啊!Whoa, Larry,你看到那个人换了多少硬币要来洗衣服啊?
LL: The guy with all the laundry ? He's going to need a lot of quarters
to do all of that laundry. Oh , hey, my next load of laundry is done.
Let me take it out. LH: Whoa , Larry,你的白衬衫怎么全变成粉红色啦?
LL: I think you've mastered the use of "whoa ," Li Hua. LH: Whoa
,Larry,我不过是用你刚教的常用语开开玩笑嘛。不过,你的白衬衣是变成粉红
色啦!
******
LL: Oh , boy, Li Hua , I made a big booboo. LH:你做了什么?A
booboo?
LL: Yeah , a booboo means a big mistake ! I left a red sock in
with my white t-shirts and underwear. Now everything is pink. LH: Booboo
就是犯了个大错误。原来你把一只红袜子丢进去和白衬衫一块洗,怪不得现在它
们都成了粉红衬衫了。没关系啦,Larry ,犯错误的人多着呐,我昨天也犯了个
大错 - a booboo.
LL: What was that?
LH:我啊,把钱包和钥匙放在厨房的桌子上,走出家才想起来,所以就把钥
匙给锁在家里了。
LL: That was a booboo, all right. How did you fix your booboo ?
LH:还能怎么办,只好请锁匠来开门。当然啦,就是得花钱,破财消灾喽!
Larry ,我来帮你把这些粉红衬衫放到烘干机里吧!
LL: Thanks. Hey, Li Hua , do you see that kid over there with the
booboo on his knee?
LH: The kid with a booboo on his knee?你是说坐在那儿,那个膝盖上
贴绷带的小孩啊?
LL: Yeah , I saw him fall down earlier and get a booboo. He just
scraped his knee a little. He cried , but his mom cheered him up. LH
:噢,你看到他摔下来,膝盖受了伤啊?等等,Larry ,这么说,booboo除了指
错误,也可以指受伤,对吗?
LL: Right, but not a serious injury. . . Oh , Li Hua , watch out
for the door of the dryer !
LH: Ow !好痛噢,我的手指给烘干机的门夹到了。
LL: Oh , let me see. Look , you've got a booboo, too!
今天李华学到两个常用语。第一个是whoa,这个词有几种意思,它可以指
“嘿,慢点”。也可以表示“很惊奇”。李华学到的另一个常用语就是:booboo.Booboo
也有两种意思。一个是指错误,另外也可以指受伤。
