Larry的父母最近来大学看望他。Larry一直忙着招待他们,今天好不容易抽空在李华的住处休息一下。李华会学到两个常用语:drive someone bonkers和tightwad。
LL: I can t believe my family has been here only three days. They are really making me bonkers!
LH: Making you bonkers?Larry,这个听起来可不像是什么好话。
LL: No, it isn t. Bonkers means crazy. Even though I love my family, they have all these annoying habits that drive me bonkers.
LH: 噢, make you bonkers就是你都快疯了。这我就不懂了,你很爱你的父母,这是毫无疑问的。可是他们有哪些习惯会让你受不了呢?
