今天我们开始播送[流行美语]。在这个节目里，我们要请大家听Michael 和李华的对话，他们俩都是纽约大学的学生。 Michael 是美国人，但是他听得懂中文。他和李华在这个新学期 里不约而同地都选了摄影课。现在是清早7:50，俩人在课堂门口碰到了。请注意他们讲话中用的两个常用语：bummed 和 chill。

L: 嗨，Michael, 什么是 bummed? 我记得Bum 不是指无家可归的人吗？3 j, T" c6 T9 V( [6 _% @9 {

M: Yeah, that is true. But here I used bummed and bummed out. They both mean to be unhappy or upset.
" `9 y1 d- X* E1 [8 L# A& p3 H5 v0 i2 s2 y
L: 噢，你看，就这一个字就把我弄糊涂了。原来是 bummed， 或者是 bummed out， 意思是不高兴，感到烦恼。嗨，Michael, 你刚才说什么来着？5 J4 @2 v% U9 T4 ^* p; p% d' e

L: 现在我清楚了，你是说要那么早起床实在叫你不高兴， Johnson博士教这门课也让你不高兴，因为她很严格。 嗨，要是女同学拒绝你的邀请，那你就会更难受， 对不对?& a T* O- V" S9 @" P# I

M: Ha ha. Very funny. But you are right, if I got turned down for a date I’d be bummed. I’m also bummed that summer vacation is over.

L: 打棒球不能说是 chill out。不错，要到比较安静的地方才能休息。 每个人还不一样，你喜欢坐在咖啡馆里看书，你知道我喜欢到博物馆去。能不能说到酒吧间去 chill out?2 ?# Q* d8 o% V, {9 g( g- B9 X3 o
