流行美語(yǔ)實(shí)用句子對(duì)話(huà)

　　Larry和李華準(zhǔn)備到銀行去，李華要開(kāi)一個(gè)帳戶(hù)，而Larry需要取一些現(xiàn)金。今天李華會(huì)學(xué)到兩個(gè)常用語(yǔ)：to be hard up和to pick on someone.

　　LH: Larry，我要去銀行開(kāi)個(gè)戶(hù)頭，你去銀行做什么？

　　LL: Well, my friend is a little hard up for cash right now, so I''m going to withdraw some money and let him borrow it.

　　LH: 原來(lái)你是要提現(xiàn)金借給朋友啊！你的朋友怎么啦？你說(shuō)他hard up for cash。 Cash是現(xiàn)金。這個(gè)我懂，但hard up是什么意思？

　　LL: To be "hard up" for something means that you don''t have enough of it.

　　LH: Hard up for something就是什么東西不夠，所以你那朋友hard up for cash, 就是錢(qián)不夠啦！對(duì)不對(duì)？

　　LL: Exactly. He''s helped me when I was hard up before, so I feel that I should help him out now.

　　LH: 嗯，你朋友以前也借錢(qián)給你，幫過(guò)你，所以現(xiàn)在你幫他。這也是應(yīng)該的。對(duì)了，Larry, 這個(gè)hard up除了指缺錢(qián)，還可以用在什么地方？

　　LL: Well, one is usually hard up for money. However, you can be hard up for time or for work, too.

　　LH: 如果我說(shuō)I am hard up for time, 那就表示我很忙，時(shí)間不夠，對(duì)不對(duì)？

　　LL: Right. I''m usually hard up for time during exams. I have so much studying to do that I hardly even sleep.

　　LH: 我也是，只要到了期中考，期末考的季節(jié)，我就覺(jué)得時(shí)間不夠用，書(shū)都念不完。那hard up for work不能說(shuō)工作不夠，只能說(shuō)找不到工作嘍？

　　LL: I''m hard up for work means that I really need a job, but I''m having a hard time finding one.

　　LH: 嗯，那種需要工作卻找不到工作的滋味一定很不好受。希望我畢業(yè)后不會(huì)經(jīng)歷hard up for work.

　　LL: So do I. I don''t think anyone enjoys being hard up for time, money, or work.

　　LH：對(duì)，缺錢(qián)，缺時(shí)間，沒(méi)工作都不好受。

　　******

　　LL: Did you see those two children in the bank? The little boy was awful; he kept picking on his sister.

　　LH: 就是，那個(gè)小男孩真不聽(tīng)話(huà)，吵吵鬧鬧的。你說(shuō)他picking on his sister，那是什么意思？

　　LL: Oh, to pick on someone is to annoy or to be mean to that person. The little boy kept picking on his sister by calling her ugly and pulling her hair.

　　LH: Pick on someone就是欺負(fù)，招惹別人，或者老是批評(píng)別人的意思。那個(gè)小男孩不斷拉他姐姐的頭發(fā)，還說(shuō)她丑，真是很讓人討厭。我小時(shí)候我哥哥也喜歡捉弄我。他總是踩我的'腳，卻說(shuō)是我踩他！

　　LL: Well, at least your brother stopped doing that when he got older. My parents still pick on each other.

　　LH: 你說(shuō)什么，你的爸媽也老是互相指責(zé)？

　　LL: They just criticize each other over stupid things. For example, my dad likes to pick on my mom about her cooking. He thinks she''s a terrible cook.

　　LH: 你媽媽幫全家人做飯已經(jīng)夠辛苦了，你爸爸居然還批評(píng)她做飯做得不好。你爸爸也真是的！

　　LL: I know, but they have been picking on each other for thirty years and old habits are hard to break. To be honest, I think they enjoy it.

　　LH: 那倒是，30多年都是這樣，要改恐怕也難。可是，你說(shuō)他們喜歡這樣做，這不太可能吧！

　　LL: Sometimes, they are joking. When my mom picks on my dad about the kind of music he listens to, I know she''s just joking. Other times, I think they are just being grouchy.

　　LH: 我想他們有時(shí)是開(kāi)玩笑。你爸聽(tīng)什么音樂(lè)，你媽還要管吶？肯定是開(kāi)玩笑。當(dāng)然，有的時(shí)候互相鬧別扭也是可能的。人都有情緒不好的時(shí)候嘛！

　　今天李華學(xué)到兩個(gè)常用語(yǔ)。第一個(gè)是to be hard up for something, 就是缺乏某樣?xùn)|西，通常用來(lái)指缺錢(qián)或沒(méi)時(shí)間。另一個(gè)常用語(yǔ)是pick on someone, 意思是批評(píng)別人，或者是欺負(fù)別人。
