第二部 第十四课: loser , to bug
- 今天他们决定到一个公园去滑冰。李华会学到两个常用语：loser 和 to bug。
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 哎～，今天天气真好哎！正是运动的好天气。我已经好久都没有滑冰了。
- You're a very good skater. I just keep falling down.
- 哎哟，学滑冰总是会摔跤的。多练习练习就好啦。
- I know, but I feel like such a loser. I keep getting passed by little kids. They laugh at me.
- 小孩子肯定是比我们滑得快，别怕他们笑话你。哎，你刚才说你觉得自己是什麼？ loser? 滑冰又不是比赛，怎麼会输掉呢？
- I said I feel like a loser, l-o-s-e-r, it means that I feel like a failure. It doesn't mean I lost a game.
- 哦～，你是说 loser 就是一个人做某件事总是做不好。嗯！我们在中文裡啊常说：「我怎麼老学不好，真是个笨蛋」。所以，这跟 loser 的意思差不多了囉？哎，不过，Michael，我肯定你在滑冰方面不是笨蛋，你只要多练习就行了。
- Thanks for the encouragement, Li Hua. But I've always been kind of a loser at sports. Growing up, I was always picked last for the baseball and soccer teams.
- 哦～，原来你在体育方面从小就不行啊。哎，不过，Michael，在其他方面你 一点也不笨啊。
- What do you mean, Li Hua?
- 你还不明白吗？女孩子啊都很喜欢你呢，你还有其他好多朋友呀。
- You're right, I do have a lot of friends. But if they could see how many times I fell down today, I'm sure they would not want be friends with such a loser.
- 得了吧，Michael，要说笨蛋啊，那天晚上我们见到那个人才是呢。他自以為很帅，老想和女孩子搭訕，可是，谁都知道他是个没出息的人，都不想和他交朋友。疑？Michael，我们能不能叫这种人 loser 呢？
- Yeah, very good, Li Hua. That guy really is a loser. He never studies at all. I think he's in college just to party.
- 啊？他从来不唸书呀？哎，Michael，你还滑不滑呢？
- I guess so...Just wait up for me, in case I fall down again. Okay, let's go!
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- Michael，运动一下真舒服喔。
- Yeah, you had been bugging me about going skating for so long. I guess it was about time that I came along with you.
- 什麼是 bugging 啊？ Bug 不是小虫子吗？
- No, bugging, b-u-g-g-i-n-g, means to bother or annoy someone about something. I didn't mean it in a serious way, I was just kidding.
- 哦～，to bug 就是為了某件事去麻烦别人，让人讨厌。 Michael, 能不能再举个例子呢？
- Sure. You can say that something is bugging you, such as an assignment that you haven't been able to finish or a problem that you cannot solve. You could also...
- 等等等等，你先让我弄清楚你说的。你是说，我没能完成的功课，或者解决不了的问题都可以用 to bug 这个动词。那就是说："This assignment is bugging me"，或者我说：「This problem is bugging me"，对不对啊？
- Yes, you can also say that a habit someone has really bugs you.
- 我知道，像 Mary，她老是打断我说话，让我很烦、很讨厌的。
- You could say "It really bugs me when Mary interrupts me in the middle of a sentence." I can also say it really bugs me when you try to tell me what to do.
- 嘿～，我告诉你该怎麼做是為了你好。老实说，it bugs me that you never listen to me.
- It seems that you've learned how to use "loser" and "to bug". Let's go home.
- ………………………………………………………………………………
- 李华今天学了一个名词 loser，指「一个人老是不会做某一件事」；她还学了一个动词 to bug，意思是「為了一件事老是去麻烦别人，让人讨厌」。
