Honey, I have a bone to pick with you. I don't mind you getting into the bathroom first in the morning, but do you have to be in there so long? You know, I have to get to work on time, too." 亲爱的，我有一件事得向你抱怨了。我不在乎你每天早上先用洗澡间，但是，你有必要在里面呆那末长时间吗。你知道，我也得按时上班的呀。 在一般美国人家里，夫妇两的卧室里有一个洗澡间，而孩子们尽管他们也许有自己的房间，但是也得合用一个洗澡间，这倒是经常引起争吵的一个原因。 每个人穿了新衣服都喜欢别人夸奖，这也是人的正常心理。特别是妇女，每当她们添置了一些新的时髦的衣服，总喜欢别人注意、夸奖一番。可是，有的人注意是注意了，但偏偏注意到坏的一面。下面的例子就是一个女教师在说她的朋友。 Sally always criticizes me no matter what I wear. Last week, I put on the red dress I bought at Macy's. Everyone said I looked great in that dress. The only person who had a bone to pick with me was Sally. She said the dress was too tight on me. That's ridiculous! 不管我穿什么,萨莉总是会批评的。上星期,我穿了在梅喜公司买的那件红色连衣裙,每个人都说我穿了那件衣服非常好看。唯一挑毛病的人就是萨莉。她说,那件衣服我穿太小了。这简直是可笑! (责任编辑：admin) |
