今天Larry要开车去接李华一起去上课。李华会学到两个常用语:get it together和tough。
(Doorbell Rings)
LL: Hey, Li Hua!? You re not ready for school! We need to go now! It s already 8:30.
LH: (Yawns) Larry? 你怎么这么早就来啦!现在几点了?
LL: Get it together, Li Hua! It s already 8:30! We need to leave in fifteen minutes, or we ll be late to class!
LH: Get it together? (Groans and yawns) 把什么放一起啊?你在说什么嘛?
LL: I said "get it together"! That means, get organized, focus on what you need to do.
LH: 噢,你是要我赶快准备好上学。Get it together就是要人打起精神做该做的事。那除此之外,Larry,get it together还能用在什么场合呢?
LL: "To get it together" , or "get one s act together" can also mean something very general, such as arranging one s life for the better.
