流行美語第263課

李華在學(xué)校租了一塊花圃，讓Larry來幫忙。李華今天要學(xué)兩個常用語，get into和grubby.

LL: I think it is great that you have rented a garden plot, Li Hua, but I don't think I can really get into gardening.

LH: You don't think you can "get into" gardening, Larry? 相信我，一點都不難，你只要跟我一起去，進了花圃就行了。Then you will be in the garden.

LL: Well, I may be in the garden, but that doesn't mean I'll get into gardening. To "get into" something means to really like something or to enjoy doing something.

LH: 噢，原來你說的get into是喜歡的意思。那你說you don't think you can get into gardening。意思就是說你不u會喜歡上園藝了？

LL: Right. I am sorry, Li Hua, because I know how much you get into gardening.

LH: 不過，你起碼應(yīng)該試試看??！

LL: Okay, Li Hua. I'll try it. Maybe I'll learn why you have gotten into gardening.

LH: 我喜歡園藝完全是因為我媽。我們小時候，她總是在家里的院子里種很多菜。

LL: That sounds nice. Fresh grown vegetables are so much better than the ones in the grocery store.

LH: 那你呢，Larry? What do you get into?

LL: Oh, you know me, Li Hua. I love computers. You know I really get into video games. I could play video games all day long.

LH: 我永遠搞不懂你為什么那么喜歡打電玩，我覺得打電玩很吵，而且打久了會很累。

LL: Well, every body gets into different things. You get into gardening, and I get into video games.

LH: 那也是。還有，我喜歡布魯斯，你喜歡搖滾樂。

LL: Yes, and while you can't understand how I can get into video games, Li Hua, I have never understood why you get into blues music. How can you listen to blues music? It just makes me sad.

LH: 我喜歡布魯斯的節(jié)奏和歌手的嗓音。但是我從來無法欣賞搖滾樂。簡直吵死了。

LL: I wonder if there is something we can both get into.

LH: 我有個主意。We can both "get into" the car, 到花圃去。

LL: "Get into" the car. Very funny, Li Hua!

******

(Outdoor sounds, Larry and Li Hua are at the garden)

LL: I should have brought some garden gloves. My hands are getting all grubby from digging in the dirt.

LH: Grubby? 我猜grubby肯定是臟的意思。你的手還真是夠臟的。

LL: Grubby does mean dirty. Li Hua, my hands are so grubby, I've got dirt under my fingernails. Yuck!

LH: 真沒想到你還挺愛干凈。別忘了，園藝一半的樂趣就在于渾身上下沾滿泥土。

LL: Well, maybe you think so, Li Hua. I'm just glad I wore some grubby, old clothes. Look how grubby the knees of my pants are!

LH: 別抱怨了！在園圃里干活難免是要弄臟的。

LL: Okay, then I'll stop complaining about being grubby. But, doesn't it bother you, Li Hua?

LH: 不會啊，我喜歡這樣。Why don't you like getting grubby, Larry?

LL: I don't think it is that unusual that I don't like getting grubby, Li Hua. But I haven't always been this way.

LH: 你以前不是這樣？那你是什么樣子呢？

LL: Oh, when I was a kid, I used to play outside all the time. I would come home grubby from head to toe!

LH: 從頭到腳都是土? 那你媽媽肯定不高興。

LL: No, after I came home from a day of playing outside, she would take me by my grubby little hand and take me straight to the bath tub.

LH: 好了，Larry. 今天就干到這吧，你看見那個工具房了嗎？

LL: Grubby old tool shed? Oh, yes, I see it.

LH: 你能幫我把這些工具和這個桶放到那里收好嗎？

LL: Sure, not a problem, Li Hua!

LH: 謝謝你，Larry. I hope you didn't mind getting grubby too much.

今天李華學(xué)到了兩個常用語。一個是get into, 是喜歡的意思。另一個是grubby, 是臟的意思。
