第十二部 第六课: crummy , sack out
- Larry 和李华正在吃午饭． Larry 好像心情不太好．今天李华会学到两个常用语： crummy 和 sack out。
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- Larry，怎麼啦？你好像不太开心哎，是什麼事惹你不高兴？
- Oh, I'm just having a really crummy day. My crummy computer crashed again and my crummy air conditioner isn't working.
- 你的电脑坏啦，连你的空调也坏了．你可真倒霉哎！疑？不过，你说了好几个 crummy，那是什麼意思啊？
- When you're talking about a situation, crummy means miserable. When you're talking about an object, crummy means cheap and poor quality.
- 哦～， crummy 形容一个情况呢，是指非常难受、很惨．那～，要是形容一个东西，就是指这个东西很次，质量很差． Larry，你好可怜喔，有没有什麼我能帮上忙的啊？
- Not unless you can fix my crummy computer and my crummy air conditioner.
- 抱歉哎，我真希望我能帮忙，可是我既不会修电脑，也不会修空调．你有没有通知你的房东，要他来修空调呢？
- Yeah, but he's not a very good landlord. He takes forever to fix anything, and even when he finally fixes something, he usually does a crummy job.
- 唉！这样的房东！要就不给你修，就是修也修得不怎麼样．这可真糟糕呢！ What a crummy situation!
- You said it. I brought my computer to the repair shop and they say that they will have to keep for a week and it will cost $100 to fix.
- 什麼！要在修理的店裡放一个星期，还要一百美元啊？
- Yes, I hope they don't do a crummy job of fixing it. Well, if they do a crummy job the first time, then they should fix it the second time for free.
- 当然囉，如果一次没修好，他们当然得免费再帮你修啊．不过啊如果他们修理的技术太差，要是我的话，可不想再回去找他们了。
- That's understandable. Well, hopefully, they'll do a good job.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- I think part of the reason I'm having a crummy day is because I'm tired. I think I'll go home and sack out for an hour or two.
- 你累了啊？疑？你要回家做什麼？什麼是 sack out？
- To sack out is to go to sleep. I want to go home and sleep for a while.
- 哦～，原来 to sack out 就是睡觉．那不就和 hit the sack 意思一样嘛？
- That's right. If I sack out for a couple of hours, then I should wake up in a better mood.
- 对了， Larry，你怎麼会这麼累啊？
- Well, I didn't sack out until around 2 this morning because I was trying to fix my crummy computer.
- 哇！修电脑修到零晨两点啊，怪不得你那麼累！你啊真应该早点休息！
- I know. It was so hard to get out of bed and go to work this morning.
- 那当然囉，半夜两点才睡觉，早上啊肯定不想起床．如果你现在回家睡觉，那你今晚还睡得着吗？
- I'm so tired that I don't think it will be a problem. I could probably sack out now and not wake up until tomorrow morning.
- 你累到这种程度啊？现在回家睡觉，可以一觉睡到明天早上？看你这个样子啊，你再要这样熬夜早晚得生病的！
- I don't believe you sack out at regular hour every night. You stay late too.
- 嗯，我有必要时当然也会开夜车，但是没有像你这麼经常啊！你得自己注意身体嘛。
- You're right! I'll try not to sack out too late.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 今天李华学到了两个常用语．第一个是： crummy，可以「指情况很糟糕，也可以指一样东西质量很差」．另一个常用语是： sack out，就是「睡觉」的意思。
