Larry最近一直在忙着帮老板准备讲话稿。李华到Larry的办公室来看望他。李华今天会学到两个常用语:holed up(一个人由于某种原因在一个地方不能出门)和come up for air(换换环境,休息一会儿)。
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:
Li Hua
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

It is so nice to see you, Li Hua. I've been holed up in the office for days trying to get this presentation done for my boss.
No, not a hold up. I said "holed up". "holed up", well, when I said I had been holed up here in the office, I meant I hadn't left my office in days,
Right. I've been holed up here for three whole days now. I feel kind of like a rabbit sleeping in his rabbit hole for the winter.
When you were holed up working on your thesis, Li Hua. I didn't see you for a long time.
Well, if you have to be holed up somewhere, your apartment is a pretty good place. At least it's comfortable.
There is a sofa in the break room. I've been taking naps there.
Never mind, I'm strong. I'll finish my boss's presentation in a few days.
At this point, being holed up at home sounds a lot better than being holed up here at work.LL: It is so nice to see you, Li Hua. I've been holed up in the office for days trying to get this presentation done for my boss.
LH: Larry,我知道你忙着给你老板准备报告,可你说在办公室好几天干什么来啦?Hold up,这不是抢劫吗?
LL: No, not a hold up. I said "holed up". "holed up", well, when I said I had been holed up here in the office, I meant I hadn't left my office in days,
LH: 原来如此。你是说你在办公室好几天没出去。Holed up就是由于某种原因呆在一个地方很久没法出去。
LL: Right. I've been holed up here for three whole days now. I feel kind of like a rabbit sleeping in his rabbit hole for the winter.
LH: 你觉得自己好象是只兔子钻在洞里过冬!说得真形象。对了,我是有好几天没见到你了,好象不止三天哪!
LL: When you were holed up working on your thesis, Li Hua. I didn't see you for a long time.
LH: 那到也是。我在赶论文的那段时间常常好几天都不出门,真有钻进了洞里的感觉。
LL: Well, if you have to be holed up somewhere, your apartment is a pretty good place. At least it's comfortable.
LH: 这倒是真的。 我呆在家里好几天,是觉得很舒服,不象你这办公室,累了连个躺的地方都没有。
LL: There is a sofa in the break room. I've been taking naps there.
LH: 你在休息室里的沙发上睡个午睡就行啦? Larry, 你还要多久才能准备好你老板的报告呀?你这么老呆在这里不回家,对你的身体不好。
LL: Never mind, I'm strong. I'll finish my boss's presentation in a few days.
LH: 还要几天才能完成这报告呀?这样做,时间长了你会生病的。生了病,你可就真的不能出门了。You'll be holed up at home。
LL: At this point, being holed up at home sounds a lot better than being holed up here at work.
LH: Larry, 还是跟我出去呼吸一下新鲜空气,你再回去继续干。 |
