Hannah晚上要和老公出去看电影，所以雇了临时保姆Elliot来家里照顾女儿Amber。
Professor: During the last episode at the playground Amber hit another child and stole the ball he was playing with. _____1_____ , doesn't she?
可不是嘛! 看来Elliot今晚有得忙了!
Hannah: Hi there, Elliot. Thanks for being on time. _____2_____.
Elliot: Hi Hannah. You know, I love kids. I think I will have a lot of fun with Amber.
Hannah: That's great, but I should warn you:_____3_____.
Elliot: Don't worry, I'm a very patient person. _____4_____.
Professor, Hannah提醒Elliot, 说 "Amber is a handful," 这是什么意思呢？
Professor: You can say someone is "a handful"_____5_____. For example, "Paul's girlfriend is really a handful. _____6_____."
原来，a handful就是那些非常难伺候，总惹麻烦的家伙。不过，Elliot说，自己很有耐心，即Amber不听话，也不会get on his nerves - 惹他生气。
Hannah: First, let me give you some basic rules. Amber has to finish all her dinner. If she doesn't, she can't watch TV.
Elliot: What should I cook for her? _____7_____?
Hannah: I left her dinner in the refrigerator. Make sure you stand on the other side of the room when she eats.
Elliot: Why do I have to do that?
Hannah: Sometimes if Amber doesn't like the food I make her, _____8_____.
天呀，Hannah说， 如果Amber不喜欢吃什么东西，就会大喊大叫，还会把吃的扔出去! 如果让我看这种孩子，我每小时得要100美金!
Professor: I agree. But Winnie, can you guess what a "picky eater" is?
Hmm...picky是 “挑剔”的意思，所以 "picky eater"应该是“挑食的人。”
Professor: Correct. And what does Hannah say will happen if Amber doesn't eat her dinner?
她说，如果Amber不把饭吃完，就不许看电视。She sounds like a troublemaker
We're just about to leave for the movie
Amber can be a handful
Even if Amber misbehaves I'm sure she won't get on my nerves
if he or she gives you lots of trouble
He has to call her 10 times per day or she complains he doesn't care about her
Is she a picky eater
she screams and throws it at me
