华尔街中级英语Lesson 48

（单词翻译）

1. Come in!
2. Oh, hello. Mary.  I wasn’t expecting³ you.  What a surprise to see you, and, er…
3. I was¹ just passing, so I thought⁴ I’d say “Hi”, and introduce⁵ you to my new boyfriend⁶, Bashir.
4. How do you do, Bashir?
5. Marco’s an old friend of mine, Bashir.
6. Oh, yeah?
7. That’s right—we’re friends--just friends!
8. Bashir’s a real⁷ he—man, isn’t he?
9. Oh, yes.  Definitely⁸!
10. Oh, there’s the phone!  I’ll just go and answer it
11. It’s alright Marco, I’ll get it.  You two men can have a little chat⁹ together
1. Er…have you and Mary been going¹⁰ out together for long?
2. What’s that got¹¹ to do with you
3. Oh. nothing at all!  I wonder¹² if that phone call’s for me.  I’ve been expecting someone¹³ to call.
4. Hello!
5. You like Mary, do you?
6. Oh, yes.  I like her very much
7. Then you’d better be careful.  Is that clear¹⁴?
8. Oh, yes, perfectly¹⁵ clear!  I mean—I like Mary, but not in that way, really!
9. There’s someone for you on the phone, Marco.  I think it’s that German¹⁶ woman.
10. Thanks.  Mary!  Oh, if you want a drink or anything, just help yourself¹⁷.
11. Hello, is that Kristi?
12. Yes! Hello, Marco!  Was that Mary who answered the phone, by the way?
13. Yes, but don’t get the wrong idea, Kristi.
14. She’s just been visiting someone in the hostel¹⁸, that’s all, and she just happened to—
15. It’s alright.  Marco, relax¹⁹. Look, I’ve got some good news²⁰.
16. I’ve found²¹ an apartment²² at last—it was advertised²³ in the evening paper—and I’ve moved out of that awful²⁵ hotel
17. And I’d like to invite²⁶ you over to dinner tomorrow evening, to celebrate
18. Oh! Er…Is that a good idea?
19. What do you mean:” is that a good idea?”
20. That ‘s not a very polite²⁷ thing to say when you’re invited²⁸ to dinner by a lady.
21. I’m sorry, Kristi, but things didn’t go all that well last time, did²⁹ they?
22. My best suit³⁰ was stolen³¹ and I was attacked³² by two policeman!
23. And the first time there were those terrible³³ Americans, weren’t there?
24. Ah, but you know the English saying³⁴:” Third time lucky³⁵”. And anyway³⁶, there’s nothing to worry about this time.
25. Look, I’ve only been living³⁷ in this apartment for a few³⁸ days.  I haven’t even²⁴ given³⁹ the address to anyone⁴⁰ at work yet⁴¹.
26. So what can possibly go wrong?
27. Nothing.  I suppose⁴².
28. Of course⁴³ not.  So I’ll give you the address, then:  it’s Apartment 3B, Truleigh Court⁴⁴, 11 Church⁴⁵ Street.
29. I’m sure I’ve heard that address before.
30. I’ll tell you how to get there:  take the subway⁴⁶ to Clinton Park,
31. and as² you go out of the station there’s a bus stop on your left.  Get the 192A, and ask for the stop after the pharmacy⁴⁷.
32. Then you cross the road, take the second left.  Then…
33. It’s alright, Kristi, I remember how to get there.  I went to a party there once;
34. It was given by my English teacher’s father.
35. Oh, really, I was at that party too! It’s a small world, isn’t it?
36. Yes, it is. The party ended in a terrible fight⁴⁸, if you remember.
37. So it did.  Well, never mind⁴⁹.  I’ll see you tomorrow evening at 8 o’clock, Marco.
38. See you, Kristi!  And thanks for inviting me
