中2017公共英语考试PETS2对话练习(十)
Kathy: Have you lost your marbles, Morley?
Dan: [Holds his stomach] Hmm, I could do with losing this spare tire. All right, why not?
Kathy: You foreigners are crazy. That's hundreds of kilometers of cycling.
Dan: You can ride a scooter.
Kathy: Well, it is something different.
Dan: Perfect. If you take a scooter, you can carry all our stuff.
Kathy: Hey! What do you think I am? Your porter or something?
Dan: Pretty please, with sugar on top!
(续上期,下期续)
卡西:你疯了吗,莫理?
阿丹:(捧着他的肚子)嗯,这样我可以顺便甩掉这圈肥肉。好啊,有何不可?
卡西:你们这些外国人都疯了。那样要骑几百公里耶。
阿丹:你可以骑机车啊。
卡西:嗯,那倒是蛮新鲜的。
阿丹:太好了。如果你骑机车,就可以帮我们载所有的东西。
卡西:嘿!你把我当成什么了?你的挑夫还是什么?
阿丹:拜托,拜托啦!
重点解说:
★ lose someone's marbles 失去理性,发疯
★ spare tire 发福的腰部,也有‘备胎’的意思;stomach是‘肚子’
★ cycling (n.) 骑脚踏车(的旅行或竞赛)
★ scooter (n.) 速克达机车(注意骑机车动词可以用ride,也可用take)
★ porter (n.) 挑夫
