ESL Podcast 670 – To Forgive and Forget
时间:2019-02-17 作者:英语课 分类:地道美语播客
Luc: You’ll never guess who called and left a voicemail message today.
Angela: Who?
Luc: Barbara!
Angela: Oh, really? What did she want?
Luc: She said she was calling to RSVP for our party this Saturday.
Angela: Did she?
Luc: Stop playing innocent with me. Did you or did you not invite her to our party this Saturday?
Angela: I may have. Okay, I did.
Luc: Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t you and Barbara have a knock-down, drag-out fight last month?
Angela: We may have.
Luc: And didn’t you say that you’d never speak to her again much less invite her over to our house?
Angela: That’s water under the bridge. You know what they say: “To err 1 is human, to forgive divine.”
Luc: I can’t believe my ears. You ranted 2 and raved 3 for days that you’d hold against her for the rest of your life all of the terrible things she said about you.
Angela: I was being overdramatic. I don’t think I ranted and raved, actually. We just had a little spat 4. It’s best just to forgive and forget.
Luc: Unbelievable! Why can’t you have a selective memory when we have fights?
