【流行美语】191：很舒服；合法的（1/2）
Larry和李华在谈一位最近刚找到工作的朋友。今天李华会学到两个常用语：cushy（形容很软，很舒服的意思，用来形容一个工作，就是轻松容易的工作）和legit（指合法的，正确的意思）。
只需要听写文中出现的【男生说的】英文部分，中文对话部分（包括里面个别的英语词组）不需要听写！！
Hints：
Hey
Li Hua
Kelsey
Oh
Yeah
今天开始流行美语开始改版~~~早晚8点各更新一次，两期是一篇完整的音频~~谢谢大家支持

Oh, yeah. "A cushy job" is one that isn't hard to do and has lots of benefits. A cushy job is soft and has a lot of padding like a cushion.
Well, she'll be working as an interpreter for a local businessman who does a lot of work with Chinese companies. Her salary is very high, she'll get to travel regularly to China, and her other benefits are good, too.
Doesn't it make you want to find a new job, Li Hua? Being a teaching assistant isn't the cushiest job.
But you know, the teaching assistant job gives you valuable experience, and maybe some day you will have a cushy job as a Chinese professor at a major university.
Well, it isn't hard to do, but I am hardly being paid anything, so I don't think you can call it a cushy job.
Yeah, I am going to talk to Kelsey. Maybe she has some good advice for me.LL: Hey, Li Hua, did you hear about Kelsey? She just got a cushy new job.
LH: A "cushy" job? 我知道Kelsey最近找到了新工作，但什么是cushy job？那是不是她找到了很理想的工作？
LL: Oh, yeah. "A cushy job" is one that isn't hard to do and has lots of benefits. A cushy job is soft and has a lot of padding like a cushion.
LH: 我懂了，cushy就是从cushion软垫子这个词来的。所以cushy job就是很舒服的工作，就是钱多事少的好差事。Larry，快告诉我，Kelsey的工作到底是什么性质，为什么能够这么cushy？
LL: Well, she'll be working as an interpreter for a local businessman who does a lot of work with Chinese companies. Her salary is very high, she'll get to travel regularly to China, and her other benefits are good, too.
LH: 哇，帮美国商人做翻译，不但薪水高，还有机会到中国出差。真好！Kelsey的中文很好，个性又活泼，我想这个工作对她来说应该不难。 真是一个cushy job!
LL: Doesn't it make you want to find a new job, Li Hua? Being a teaching assistant isn't the cushiest job.
LH: 就是啊，当助教一点也不舒服，每星期我得花很多时间备课，和学生面谈，上课，批改作业，但是助教的薪水却少的可怜。It isn't a cushy job at all.
LL: But you know, the teaching assistant job gives you valuable experience, and maybe some day you will have a cushy job as a Chinese professor at a major university.
LH: 我也希望如此啊。希望我这个助教工作能为我将来能到名牌大学当教授打下基础，那可就是个cushy job了。Larry，那你呢？你希不希望你的暑期工作也是个舒服的好工作呢？
LL: Well, it isn't hard to do, but I am hardly being paid anything, so I don't think you can call it a cushy job.
LH: 工作虽不难做，可是工资微薄。那没什么意思。 那你想找个新工作吗？ 你可以去问问Kelsey 她是怎么找到的，没准那公司还要人呢！
LL: Yeah, I am going to talk to Kelsey. Maybe she has some good advice for me.
