【流行美语】237:尽快;机械地做某物(1/2)
Larry在学校的电脑室里见到了李华。李华今天要学会两个常用语ASAP(尽快)和crank out(不需多加思考地,机戒地制作某种东西)。
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

What? But that's due tomorrow! You'd better finish that ASAP.
ASAP means "as soon as possible". You need to finish that application as soon as possible!
Well, people say "as soon as possible", but if you are in a hurry, it's easier to just say ASAP.
Well, it sounds more forceful. For instance, if your boss tells you, "Li Hua, I need you to get this done ASAP" you know that he is in a hurry!
Or if your mechanic tells you that you car is leaking oil, and that you need to have it fixed ASAP, you'd better take his word for it.
Wait, Li Hua, you promised me yesterday that you would proofread my Chinese composition. Have you done that yet? I need to hand it in ASAP!
I need to go to work ASAP, so I need to hand this in before I go.
Thank you so much, Li Hua. You're such a good friend.LL: Hey, Li Hua! What are you working on? A paper?
LH: 不是,我在写申请威廉森中国历史奖学金的申请书。
LL: What? But that's due tomorrow! You'd better finish that ASAP.
LH: 我知道明天是申请的最后期限,所以我在赶呐。ASAP, 那是什么意思啊?
LL: ASAP means "as soon as possible". You need to finish that application as soon as possible!
LH: 噢,原来ASAP就是尽快 - as soon as possible 的缩写。 Larry,那你为什么不说as soon as possible而是说ASAP呢?
LL: Well, people say "as soon as possible", but if you are in a hurry, it's easier to just say ASAP.
LH: 匆忙的时候说ASAP,这能节省多少时间呢,顶多半秒钟吧。
LL: Well, it sounds more forceful. For instance, if your boss tells you, "Li Hua, I need you to get this done ASAP" you know that he is in a hurry!
LH: 那倒是。ASAP听起来比较干脆,比较有力。
LL: Or if your mechanic tells you that you car is leaking oil, and that you need to have it fixed ASAP, you'd better take his word for it.
LH: 你别举这种让我倒霉的例子。不过,要是我的车漏油了,我当然得尽快修理。I need to have it fixed ASAP。
LL: Wait, Li Hua, you promised me yesterday that you would proofread my Chinese composition. Have you done that yet? I need to hand it in ASAP!
LH: 天啊,昨天我答应帮你修改中文作文,我怎么把这件事给忘了呢?真的好对不起。那你今天下午交还来得及吗?
LL: I need to go to work ASAP, so I need to hand this in before I go.
LH: 如果你一定要在上班之前把作业交上去,那我现在就帮你看吧。
LL: Thank you so much, Li Hua. You're such a good friend.
