时间：2019-02-07 作者：英语课 分类：地道美语播客
Vicky: What are you working on?
Issac: If I tell you, will you promise not to laugh?
Vicky: All right. What is it?
Issac: It’s a love letter to Julie.
Vicky: Isn’t it a little premature 1? You’ve only been going out for a month.
Issac: Maybe, but I really want her to know how I feel.
Vicky: Let me see it. “Dear Julie. I’m writing this letter to pour my heart out to you. When we met, it was love at first sight and I can’t get you out of my head. You mean everything to me. Now that we’re together, how can I ever live without you?”
Issac: So, what do you think?
Vicky: I thought it would have some simple sweet nothings. I didn’t expect it to be this heavy.
Issac: Do you think it needs more terms of endearment 2? Maybe I should have called her “my love,” “my darling,” or “sweetheart.” Tell me the truth, do you think it’s too much? I don’t want to scare her off.
Vicky: Well, I know you’re head over heels in love with her, but if I were you, I’d play it by ear. Give it to her when you feel the time is right.
Issac: Okay, thanks. I’ll try to play it cool, for now.
Script 3 by Dr. Lucy Tse
- It is yet premature to predict the possible outcome of the dialogue.预言这次对话可能有什么结果为时尚早。
- The premature baby is doing well.那个早产的婴儿很健康。
- This endearment indicated the highest degree of delight in the old cooper.这个称呼是老箍桶匠快乐到了极点的表示。
- To every endearment and attention he continued listless.对于每一种亲爱的表示和每一种的照顾，他一直漫不在意。
