Michael 和李華這兩個大學(xué)生，一個講英文，一個講中文，旁邊的人聽起來很奇怪，可是他們倆已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了。今天他們來到中央公園，李華會學(xué)到兩個常用語：pig out 和bigmouth。
L：Michael, 感恩節(jié)你過得好嗎？
M: It was good to be with my family, but I was disappointed that you couldn't be there.
L：我知道，跟家人在一起總是高興的事。謝謝你邀請我，但是我早就答應(yīng)了另一個朋友，所以沒法去你家，明年我一定去你家。
M: Ok, well. It was a great meal, we all pigged out.
L：你們感恩節(jié)吃豬肉呀？我還以為感恩節(jié)都是吃火雞呢。
M: Yeah, most people do have turkey. Pig out means to eat a large amount of food, not that we actually ate pig.
L：噢，pig out就是吃好多東西，不是指吃豬肉呀？
M: Yes, pigs eat a lot and that's where the expression pig out comes from. I did eat like a pig on Thanksgiving.
L：我猜也是，pig out肯定是因為豬吃好多東西而形成的常用語。Michael，我看你呀，不僅是感恩節(jié)，你平時就吃好多。上星期，你每天晚上都吃得象頭豬一樣。
M: Um, I certainly did.
L：Pig out這個說法只能指吃東西?。磕懿荒苡迷趧e的地方？
M: No, not really. But don't forget that when you use it in the past tense, pig out should be pigged out.
L：那是過去時態(tài)，要是說你到了圣誕節(jié)假日又要大吃大喝了，那該怎么說？
M: You will pig out during the Christmas holidays.
L：嗨，我是在說你，我才不會吃那么多東西呢！Michael, 是不是每年都有這么多人來中央公園滑冰？
M: Yes, it's free. My friend Josh said he would be coming to ice-skate with his girlfriend Emily today. Oh, By the way, Li Hua, did you tell Simon that Josh and Emily are getting married soon? I just need……
L：是，那天我不小心告訴了Simon。我知道Josh和Emily現(xiàn)在還不想公開他們準(zhǔn)備結(jié)婚的計劃，不過我真不是故意的。
M: Geez, Li Hua, you have such a bigmouth!
L：你生氣了？肯定是罵我。說我是bigmouth，大嘴巴！你是說我吃很多東西嗎？
M: No, I'm saying you talk a lot about other people's business!
L：噢，你不是說我嘴巴大，而是說我多嘴，愛嚼舌頭，談?wù)搫e人。
M: That makes you a bigmouth.
L：我們女孩子都喜歡談?wù)搫e人。不過，Michael，我從來沒在書上看到過這個詞，是不是一般在口語里用？
M: Yes, it is usually used in informal speech.
L：Michael，我真不應(yīng)該那么多嘴，把Josh和Emily準(zhǔn)備結(jié)婚的事告訴別人。
M: Well, don't worry about it. I tend to pig out and you're a bigmouth. Everyone has their faults.
L：喲，你倒是想得開，人人有缺點，你愛象豬那樣吃，我愛談?wù)搫e人。這樣就好象什么事也沒了！
M: Just don't be a person who eats like a pig and also is a bigmouth.
L：對，這兩個缺點都有那就糟了。走吧，該會學(xué)校去念書了。
今天Michael和李華在紐約中央公園，一面看許多人滑冰，一面聊天。李華從Michael那兒學(xué)到了兩個常用語，一個是pig out，就是吃很多東西的意思；另一個是bigmouth，就是多嘴的人.
