时间：2019-02-11 作者：英语课 分类：地道美语播客
Steve: I’m finally home and I’m hungry. What’s for dinner?
Brandy: I’m making a new dish. I think you’re really going to like it.
Steve: Oh, good. Bring it on.
Brandy: Well, I miscalculated the cooking time a little and it’s going to take longer than I originally planned. I know you’re famished 1. Here’s a snack for you to munch 2 on while you wait.
Steve: I’m half-starved. I skipped lunch and had to work late.
Brandy: I know, but I also know you’re dying for something really good. I promise that it’ll be worth the wait.
Steve: Okay, but I could eat a horse right now. Bring me something else to snack on.
Brandy: Don’t be too greedy and eat too much. I don’t want you to spoil your appetite. I know that what I’m cooking is something you’ve been craving 3 for a long time, and you want to save your appetite for it.
Steve: All right. I’ll wait. How much longer will it be?
Brandy: Oh, maybe another hour or a little longer…
Steve: Another hour?! I’ll be dead and buried by then!
Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
- When's lunch?I'm famished!什么时候吃午饭？我饿得要死了！
- My feet are now killing me and I'm absolutely famished.我的脚现在筋疲力尽，我绝对是极饿了。
- We watched her munch through two packets of peanuts.我们看她津津有味地嚼了两包花生米。
- Getting them to munch on vegetable dishes was more difficult.使他们吃素菜就比较困难了。
