【流行美语】205:受不了;小气鬼(1/2)


Larry的父母最近来大学看望他。Larry一直忙着招待他们,今天好不容易抽空在李华的住处休息一下。李华会学到两个常用语:drive someone bonkers(令人生气,受不了)和tightwad(小气鬼、吝啬鬼)。

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:
okay
Li Hua

http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201206/201206280103053815349.mp3I can't believe my family has been here only three days. They are really making me bonkers!
No, it isn't. Bonkers means crazy. Even though I love my family, they have all these annoying habits that drive me bonkers.
Well, there is my mom. She is a great housekeeper, but when she comes to my apartment, she rearranges everything. It drives me bonkers, because I can't find anything!
And I bet your mom is the kind of person that would go bonkers if it was always quiet. She probably likes the noise and activity.
Then there's my little sister. She drives me bonkers because she is always complaining that there is nothing to do. She says she is bored.
Speaking of talking and eating, my brother is making me bonkers because he talks endlessly and has eaten up everything in my house! I've got to go to the grocery store again.
It is okay, Li Hua. Even though I complain about my family, I really do love them. For everything they do that drives me bonkers, there is something wonderful they do, too.
Li Hua, do I drive you bonkers sometimes?LL: I can't believe my family has been here only three days. They are really making me bonkers!
LH: Making you bonkers?Larry,这个听起来可不像是什么好话。
LL: No, it isn't. Bonkers means crazy. Even though I love my family, they have all these annoying habits that drive me bonkers.
LH: 噢, make you bonkers就是你都快疯了。这我就不懂了,你很爱你的父母,这是毫无疑问的。可是他们有哪些习惯会让你受不了呢?
LL: Well, there is my mom. She is a great housekeeper, but when she comes to my apartment, she rearranges everything. It drives me bonkers, because I can't find anything!
LH: 这我完全理解。你妈是好意,看你屋里太乱,帮你整理整理。可是东西找不到的时候可真着急,火气就上来了。我妈来看我的时候总是看电视,吵得我都没法看书。That drove me bonkers。
LL: And I bet your mom is the kind of person that would go bonkers if it was always quiet. She probably likes the noise and activity.
LH: 你说得一点都没错。我妈是个很活跃的人,一静下来她就受不了。
LL: Then there's my little sister. She drives me bonkers because she is always complaining that there is nothing to do. She says she is bored.
LH: 你也别怪你小妹妹,没事干也是很难受的。我回中国探亲的时候,每天不是吃饭就是聊天,真是很枯燥,有时真受不了。 Sometimes, it drove me bonkers, too.
LL: Speaking of talking and eating, my brother is making me bonkers because he talks endlessly and has eaten up everything in my house! I've got to go to the grocery store again.
LH: 噢,你弟弟也一起来啦?他那么爱说话,跟我妈在一起倒不错!(哈,哈...)不过,年轻人能吃,你当然得去超市给他去买吃的了!
LL: It is okay, Li Hua. Even though I complain about my family, I really do love them. For everything they do that drives me bonkers, there are something wonderful they do, too.
LH: 我知道,抱怨归抱怨,但是家人总是亲人。尽管他们有让我们受不了的地方,但是他们对我们总是出于爱心,为我们作了许多事。
LL:Li Hua, do I drive you bonkers sometimes?
LH: 没有啦!你是个好朋友. You never drive me bonkers.
