第七部 第十二课: hook something up , buzz off
- Larry 正準备去食品店买东西．他打了个电话给李华问她要不要带甚麼东西．李华会学到两个常用语： hook something up 和 buzz off。
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- Hello?
- Hi, Li Hua. This is Larry. I'm going to the grocery store and I was wondering if you needed anything.
- Larry，你要去商店买东西呀？我正好牛奶喝光了，你可不可以帮我买点牛奶呢？回头我再给你钱。
- Sure, no problem. I can hook you up with some milk.
- Hook me up with some milk? 疑？我知道 hook 是「鉤子」的意思．哎，那 hook up 就是把东西用鉤子鉤住． 哎，你想把我和牛奶鉤在一起？哦～，我猜那就是给我带牛奶的意思，对不对啊？
- Yes, you're right. To hook somebody up with something means to get something for him. I meant that I will get the milk for you.
- 你看，我猜得不错吧！To hook me up with some milk 就是呢「给我带点牛奶」．对了，我差点也忘了，Larry，那你还能不能再给我带包土豆片呢？
- Sure, I can hook you up with some potato chips, too. Is there anything else you'd like me to hook you up with?
- 嗯～，还有甚麼呀？对了，你能不能帮我买一张这个週末的音乐会的票子呢？
- Well, they don't sell those at the grocery store, but I have a friend who can hook you up with some tickets.
- 哦～，对不起，我忘了你是要去食品店．那儿是不卖音乐会的票的．你的朋友可以帮我买票啊，那太好了！疑？Larry，除了说 hook somebody up with something 以外呢，我能不能说 hook somebody up with someone 呢？
- Of course you can, but it means "to introduce the person". For example, if you want to meet my friend, then I can hook you up with him.
- 哦～，原来 to hook somebody up with someone 意思就是「把某人介绍给另一个人」．哎，Larry，你还记不记得上一次歷史课裡面那个很有意思的男孩呢？ Can you hook me up with him?
- I would if I knew him, but I've never talked to him before. Sorry.
- 你从来就没有跟他说过话呀？那就算啦．哎，对了，Larry，每一次啊我写这个学术报告，我总是对自己的英文不太有信心哎，你能不能给我介绍一个可以帮我改英文的人呢？
- Of course, I can hook you up. I'll help you myself.
- 你愿意帮我改我的英文报告啊？你真是太好了！哎，还是你先去买东西吧，可别忘了喔， hook me up with milk and potato chips!
- I won't forget.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- Hey, Li Hua. Here's your milk and potato chips. See, I didn't forget to hook you up.
- 喔～，Thank you, Larry，可是啊我正忙着复习功课．I'll see you later.
- Hey, you aren't even going to invite me in? You're just telling me to buzz off? That's a little rude!
- 对不起嘛，Larry，我啊不是不想请你进来坐，可是我实在太忙了．疑？对了，甚麼是 buzz off 啊？
- Buzz off is a way of telling someone to leave. You were trying to tell me to leave, so that's like saying "Buzz off!"
- 哦～， buzz off 就是叫某个人离开啊，哎哟，Larry．我可没有要赶你走的意思哦，我啊只不过是心裡着急，我星期五要考试，到现在还没準备好呢！
- Well, then instead of telling me to buzz off, you should ask me if I can help you?
- 对呀，那 Larry，你先别走，那～，你现在有时间帮我复习吗？
- I have about an hour before I have to go home.
- 哦～，你大概有一个小时之后就要回家啦？哎，那你等一会儿吧， You can buzz off later.
- Thanks, Li Hua, You make me feel so important.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
