美国习惯用语-第72讲:girl jock
<p>美国习惯用语-第72讲:<span word="girl">girl</span> <span word="jock">jock</span></p><p>今天我们要给大家介绍两个美国学生常用的俗语。近年来，美国学生常常用一些词汇来形容那些不太受其他学生欢迎的人。他们最常用的一个字是：<span word="nerd">nerd</span>。这个字恐怕在有的字典上都找不到。它的意思和“书呆子”很相似。被称为<span word="nerd">nerd</span>的学生一般都很聪敏，对学习很严肃，他们大多数时间都花在学习上。他们的毛病在于他们看起来很软弱，和其他同学的关系也很别扭。这些所谓<span word="nerd">nerd</span>衣服也穿得比别的学生保守，在社交场合表现的不知所措。由于他们一般都比较害羞，因此和这些<span word="nerd">nerd</span>在一起不像和其他人在一起那么有趣。让我们来听听一个名字叫萨利的女学生对她的朋友说的话： </p><p>例句-1: "<span word="Today">Today</span> <span word="George">George</span> <span word="Miller">Miller</span> <span word="actually">actually</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="nerve">nerve</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="ask">ask</span> <span word="me">me</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="go">go</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="Christmas">Christmas</span> <span word="dance">dance</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="him">him</span>! <span word="Sure">Sure</span>, <span word="he">he</span>\'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="getting">getting</span> <span word="straight">straight</span> <span word="A">A</span>\'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="all">all</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="classes">classes</span>, <span word="but">but</span> <span word="look">look</span> <span word="at">at</span> <span word="those">those</span> <span word="thick">thick</span> <span word="classes">classes</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="those">those</span> <span word="dull">dull</span> <span word="clothes">clothes</span> <span word="he">he</span> <span word="wears">wears</span>. <span word="I">I</span>\'<span word="d">d</span> <span word="rather">rather</span> <span word="be">be</span> <span word="caught">caught</span> <span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="than">than</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="nerd">nerd</span> <span word="like">like</span> <span word="him">him</span>." </p><p>萨利说：“今天乔治米勒居然敢来邀我和他一起去圣诞节舞会。是啊，他每门课都得<span word="A">A</span>，但是看看他那眼镜片有多厚，还穿那些老古董衣服。我要和这么一个书呆子一起去跳舞，我宁可去死。” </p><p>下面这个例子是一个刚去参加中学同学毕业二十年聚会的人。 </p><p>例句-2: "<span word="The">The</span> <span word="big">big</span> <span word="surprise">surprise</span> <span word="was">was</span> <span word="seeing">seeing</span> <span word="Bill">Bill</span> <span word="Green">Green</span>. <span word="He">He</span> <span word="was">was</span> <span word="such">such</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="nerd">nerd</span> 20 <span word="years">years</span> <span word="ago">ago</span>--<span word="too">too</span> <span word="busy">busy</span> <span word="studying">studying</span> <span word="instead">instead</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="having">having</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="good">good</span> <span word="time">time</span> <span word="like">like</span> <span word="most">most</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="us">us</span>. <span word="But">But</span> <span word="maybe">maybe</span> <span word="he">he</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="right">right</span> <span word="idea">idea</span>; <span word="he">he</span> <span word="owns">owns</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="own">own</span> <span word="computer">computer</span> <span word="company">company</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="worth">worth</span> <span word="ten">ten</span> <span word="million">million</span> <span word="bucks">bucks</span>." </p>
