第2课：笨拙 - 4 【迷你小对话1】 A: I want to get the house painted. It is getting a bit dirty and dingy. B: Make sure you hire the experts to do it. You’re so clumsy and awkward. You’ll probably fall off the ladder and hurt yourself. A: 我想把房子刷一下。房子变得又脏又暗了。 B: 那你得找几个行家来刷。你笨手笨脚的，说不定会从梯子上摔下来受伤的。 【迷你小对话2】 A: Oh no! Someone has put his hand in Grandma’s birthday cake! Who could have done it? B: I bet Roger did it. He is so ham-handed, always dropping things and walking into walls. It’s just another of his accidents. A: 天啊！有人把手插到奶奶的生日蛋糕里了！会是谁干的呢？ B: 一定是Roger，他毛手毛脚的，不是掉东西就是走路撞墙。这肯定又是他一不小心干的。 【语言点精讲】 clumsy: 手脚笨拙的。样子不优雅的。 awkward: 手脚笨拙的，不灵巧的。不熟练的。 ham-handed: 笨拙的。 dingy: 暗淡的，泛黄的。 |
