ESL Podcast 1175 – Getting a Fresh Start
Nico: I’m moving to Atlanta. I want a fresh start.
Celia: This is a surprise. I thought you were going to stick it out here and try to put the past behind you.
Nico: There are too many reminders 1 here. I want a clean slate 2. What’s done is done and I’m tired of blame and recriminations.
Celia: I’m glad to hear you’ve stopped beating yourself up over what’s happened, but are you sure moving away will help you move on?
Nico: The world is my oyster 3 now, isn’t it? I can live anywhere I want to and do anything I want to.
Celia: I guess so, but are you sure you want to uproot 4 and leave town?
Nico: I’m not trying to reinvent myself, but if I’m going to start over, I might as well do it in a new town.
Celia: I guess a new town is a good place to start a new life and maybe you’ll find a new love. Many people bounce back from a difficult divorce.
Nico: I’ve sworn off women. The only female I want in my life right now is my dog Fifi!
Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
- The film evokes chilling reminders of the war. 这部电影使人们回忆起战争的可怕场景。
- The strike has delayed the mailing of tax reminders. 罢工耽搁了催税单的投寄。
- The nominating committee laid its slate before the board.提名委员会把候选人名单提交全体委员会讨论。
- What kind of job uses stained wood and slate? 什么工作会接触木头污浊和石板呢？
