地道美語怎麼說 第26課:來電
Jessica在北京學漢語，她的中國朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語怎麼說的詞，就會來請教她。今天是Lulu要問的：來電。
JESSICA:Lulu, I heard you.went on a couple blind dates. How did they go?
Lulu:沒錯! 我是去見了幾個。給你看照片，在我手機裏呢。
JESSICA:Wow, 這個真帥! 長得像王立宏! Did you guys hit it off? 你們談得來麼？
Lulu:這個長得是不錯，可是，我跟他就是不來電! We don't have electricity!
JESSICA:Haha, Lulu，You should use the word "chemistry". There's no chemistry between you two.
Lulu:Chemistry? 化學？ 也對，不都說愛情是一種化學反應嘛! 說倆人“沒感覺，不來電”，就是There's no chemistry!
JESSICA:That's right. Now let's look at the next guy. (wait for a while) Hmm, this one... How old is he? I bet he's over 40!
Lulu:哈哈，這個是挺老的，可是我覺得我們倆挺來電的。We have chemistry!
JESSICA:Really? You saw sparks flying around?
Lulu:Spark? 我知道，s-p-a-r-k, spark，是火花，你說 “sparks flying around”，就是“火花亂飛，瞬間來電”，是不是？
JESSICA:Yes. For example, the first time my boyfriend and I kissed, I saw sparks!
Lulu:這麼說，There are definitely sparks between us!
JESSICA:That's great! So you are seeing this, er, mature guy, aren't you?
Lulu:Am I seeing him? 我看他？
JESSICA:Actually, to see someone means to date someone.
Lulu:哦, to see someone就是和某人交往。我正在和他交往，就是I'm seeing him.
JESSICA:Correct. 不過，I think this guy is a bit too old for you.
Lulu:我就喜歡成熟的! 年齡不是問題!
JESSICA:Well, if you say so. Now I see why people say "love is blind."
Lulu:Love is blind? 愛情是盲目的？
JESSICA:對啊! Anyway, I wish you good luck! Let's see what you've learned today!
Lulu:第一，來電可以用chemistry 或者sparks
第二，和某人交往是to see someone
第三, 愛情是盲目的，說Love is blind.
