今天Michael和李華在學(xué)校的書店里買書。李華會(huì)學(xué)到兩個(gè)常用語：hot和to have a crush on someone。

M: Li Hua, do you see that girl over there?

L: 你是說那個(gè)穿紅毛衣的女孩？她怎么啦？

M: She's so hot! I've seen her around campus before and I would really love to meet her.

L: 你在校園里見過她，還想認(rèn)識她。嗯，她是很漂亮。不過，你又沒跟她說過話，你怎么知道她很熱呢？

M: No, silly. To say someone is "hot" means that he or she is really attractive. That girl over there is definitely hot.

L: 噢，說一個(gè)人hot是說她很漂亮，很有吸引力，而不是感覺很熱的意思。

M: That's right, Li Hua. Now, you know who I think is hot. Tell me who do you think is hot?

L: 沒錯(cuò)，我現(xiàn)在知道你喜歡誰了。至于我喜歡誰嘛，嗯...電影演員湯姆.克魯斯 - Tom Cruise - 怎么樣？I think he's hot！

M: Tom Cruise? No, I mean someone you really have a chance of going out with.

L: 噢，要能夠一起出去玩的人吶？

M: Yes, I mean you are not very likely to meet Tom Cruise. Besides, he's a little old now.

L: 說得也是，要想認(rèn)識Tom Cruise恐怕是不太可能的。他當(dāng)然比以前老了，不過，我覺得他還是很有風(fēng)度的--He's very hot。

M: Now, come on, who do you think is hot?

L: 你想知道我心目里誰最hot呀？我才不告訴你呢，免得你泄露了我的機(jī)密。

M: Fine, be that way, but I will find out sooner or later.

******

L: 哎, Michael, 你喜歡的那個(gè)女孩去付錢了。要不要我去跟她說話？和她認(rèn)識以后再給你介紹一下。

M: NO!

L: 為什么？你是信不過我，還是怕羞呀？

M: I'm not sure. Besides, I don't want her to know that I have a crush on her. She might not even like me.

L: 你不要她知道什么？You have a crush on her -- 這是什么意思？

M: "To have a crush on someone" means you really like the person.

L: 噢，to have a crush on someone就是喜歡某人。那我喜歡你，你是我的好朋友，我能不能說I have a crush on you呢？

M: No, "to have a crush on someone" means you like that person romantically.

L: 噢，對不起，剛才沒弄清楚。 所以，to have a crush on someone是說對異性有好感，希望和這個(gè)人談戀愛，才能這么說。那我能說I have a crush on Tom Cruise嗎?

M: Yes, that would be appropriate. But when are you going to like someone you actually have a chance of meeting.

L: 你想知道我真的要誰做男朋友??？這種事我怎么能告訴你啊。

M: Why not? Don't you trust me?

L: 這不是什么信任不信任的問題。好，等你告訴那個(gè)女孩你喜歡她以后我再告訴你，好不好？

M: Then I guess I won't know who you have a crush on any time soon.

L: 啊呀，你真是沒膽量。怪不得你交不到女朋友呢！

Michael和李華在學(xué)校的書店里買書，李華學(xué)到了兩個(gè)常用語。hot是指一個(gè)人對異性很有魅力和吸引力；to have a crush on someone是指對異性有好感。
