Dialogue Script 对话原文
Sam: Who is it?
Li: It's Ms. Li, your landlady. We'd appreciate it if you'd keep the noise down.
Sam: Oh! I just got out of the shower! I can't answer the door right now!
Li: And about those guests and the music...
Sam: I'm sorry. I can't hear you! I'll talk to you in half an hour, all right?
Li: You'd better.
(half an hour later)
Sam: Excuse me, you wanted to talk to me?
Li: Yes, the noise you've been making is unbearable. In the contract, you...
Sam: I haven't heard any noise. Maybe it was coming from below you.
Li: No, it was definitely from upstairs.
Sam: Well, maybe it's your next-door neighbors, because I haven't heard a thing.
Li: Anyway, just tame it down!
讲解：
1.对话中Ms. Li说Sam太吵了，一点也不安静，所以来找他算帐。keep the noise down. 别制造那么多的噪音，就是安静一点。
2.当Ms. Li敲Sam的房门的时候，他刚刚洗完澡，I just got out of the shower! 那I'm in a shower.就是我正在洗澡。现在还不能来开门，I can't answer the door right now! answer这个词可以是接听电话，answer the phone，也可以是answer the door，去开门。
3.Ms. Li想跟Sam谈谈关于那些客人和音乐的事，可能是来访的客人很多，音乐声音放的很大，影响到了别人。但是Sam隔着门听不见房东说话，说半个小时后再谈。房东很生气，说You'd better. 你最好过来，言外之意就是如果你不过来的话，就跟你没完。
4.房东抱怨说the noise you've been making is unbearable.你制造的噪音让人无法忍受。make noise, 制造噪音。unbearable, 让人无法忍受的。那么这句话还可以说成，I can't bear the noise you've been making. 但是Sam说他没有听见任何噪音，怀疑是不是从楼下传来的。可是房东坚持说是从楼上传来的。
5.Sam又说可能是从房东邻居那传来的，反正他没有听见任何噪音。房东很不耐烦，Anyway, just tame it down! 你小声一点就是了！看来房东和房客相处的不是很好啊。 |
