Michael这个美国学生由于各方面的压力太大而情绪不太好。今天他想去找李华一起出去放松放松。现在他正在敲李华的门。Michael会教李华两个常用语:to play hooky和to snap。: E2 z. k/ T0 t: H1 m5 }, z( z; n

L:我最近工作是很忙。Michael,你的意思是让我打电话给工作的地方说我生病,这样就可以不去上班?这也可以说是to play hooky?8 `  B; q; e  S0 ^0 Q

6 E; c6 f, h/ q- }L:Michael, 你很幸运,没有象我那么多的压力。我得自己赚钱付学费,还要养活自己。你可以随便play hooky, 我可不行。

M:I'm sorry, Li Hua. I didn't mean to snap at you. It's just that right now I'm so stressed. That's part of the reason why I didn't go to class today.
6 v, C- ?' }. R9 Q* |) D; l
9 }/ [, x; S* S! E& [) p# ?L:没关系,我知道你最近压力很大。你说 "I didn't mean to snap at you", 那是什么意思呀?是不是指你很生气地跟我说话?
" V; i* o! Y5 U2 o- }
& o" Q# m6 ?4 S8 t+ wM:Yeah, to snap, s-n-a-p. To snap at someone means to yell at someone or talk to them in an angry way.
$ N$ p; ]9 |* \, A- n9 [5 K: A* x- n5 d4 p- p+ \
L:to snap at someone 就是对某人大声嚷嚷,或者很生气地和某人说话。Michael,你一般不对人那么讲话的。我想可能是你最近压力太大了。! c' O  h) i4 F# ^( k! ]  A

. f5 h4 u* B6 q' EL:我是没有让你生气的意思。没关系,每个人都有情绪不好的时候嘛!Michael,我以前好象听到别人用过to snap at someone,可不太清楚它的意思。有一次,一个小孩说他打破了什么东西。。。# q2 m; k. b/ j

今天李华又从Michael那儿学到两个常用语,to play hooky就是逃学,或者装病不去上班;to snap就是对某人嚷嚷,很生气地对某人说话。这次<流行美语>播送完了,下次节目再见。
