今天李华要做心理学实验，骗Larry说她中了一百万美元，看Larry会有什么样的反应。李华会学到两个常用语：grand和catch。 LH: Larry, Larry!! LL: Hi Li Hua. Why are you so excited today? LH: 我中乐透了!一百万!我发财了。 LL: Oh really? Are you going to take me out to dinner? LH: 请你吃饭?你的要求还真不高，我决定啊，分你一半! LL: You're giving me half a million?! What's the catch? LH: The catch...那是什么? LL: A catch is any tricky or concealed drawback to a deal. You're definitely not giving me half a million dollars for no reason. It's okay, tell me. What's the catch? LH: A catch是指某件好事的附带条件?哦，我明白了，你是不相信我会因为友谊分一半奖金给你，你觉得这么好的事情一定有catch, 对吗? LL: Of course. I wouldn't give my own brother that much. LH: 好吧，我交待。其实我没中奖啦，是心理学课要做研究。我才想要试探试探你的反应。 LL: So this is all for your Psychology class. I knew it! What if you really won a million dollars? Would you share the money? |
