  四月一号愚人节。李华到处去找michael, 有事商量。今天她会学到两个常用语,sketchy和sucker。

  l:michael,和我住在一起的小陈今天打电话到我工作的地方。她说警察到家里去找我。他们说我的签证有问题。我该怎么办?我很害怕。

  m:what? i don't believe her. that story sounds sketchy.

  l:你说听起来什么?你不信小陈说的话?

  m:that's right. i said her story is sketchy . that means it is suspicious and cannot be trusted.

  l:噢,sketchy就是可疑,不可信。你怎么知道小陈说的话不可信?

  m: well, for one thing, the police usually don't care about visas. they are too busy looking for serious criminals.

  l:嗯,对呀,警察抓罪犯还忙不过来呢,他们才不管签证呢!移民局的人才是管签证的。这么说来,小陈的话是有点可疑,sketchy。

  m:also, i don't think the police or immigration officers would go to your house. that sounds very sketchy.

  l: 对,michael, 你可真行呐! 要是签证有问题,移民局一般会先给我一封信,他们才不会到家去找我呢。这真是越说越不可信了。

  m:but if you want to know what's really sketchy, you should remember what day it is.

  l:今天是什么日子呀?噢。。。今天是四月一号愚人节! 哟,我的老天爷呀,我没想到小陈会跟我开这个玩笑。

  m:heh heh, your roommate is pretty sketchy too, if you ask me.

  l:等等,你也能说一个人sketchy? 你觉得小陈这个人不太可信?对,她的话确实是靠不住。上星期在聚会上见到的那个人,死跟着我不放,楞要送我回家,我能不能说,that guy was very sketchy?

  m:yes, that guy was very sketchy. you have to be careful around sketchy people like that.

  l:对了,我得打电话告诉小陈我没上她的当, 借你的手机用一用,行吗?

  m:sure!

  m:what did you say to your roommate just now? you were talking so fast in chinese that i couldn't understand.

  l:我告诉她我很生气,我不想再跟她住在一起了,我告诉她我要搬出去和她哥哥同居了。嘿,她好象真相信我说的话!

  m:she believed that? she is such a sucker!

  l:她是什么?你是说她sketchy,是吗?

  m:no, no... a sucker is someone who believes people who lie to her, and can be easily tricked .

  l:sucker这个词我在学校里经常听到,可就不是太清楚究竟是什么意思。原来sucker 是指很容易上当,很轻信别人的人。我一开始相信了小陈的话,那我不就是个sucker咯!

  m:sure, everyone is a sucker at one time or another...

  l:那倒是的,每个人有时难免会当傻瓜。我记得你在电脑上收到很多电子邮件的广告,说你可以在家工作赚很多钱,当时你还很相信这些广告呢。you were such a sucker!

  m: hey, my phone is ringing. li hua, it's for you. i think it's your roommate.

  l:是小陈?让我跟她说话。 (李华接电话)是呀!我不管你告诉他什么。我们相爱,我们要同居。什么?我不管你说什么,我不要跟骗我的人住在一起。 (关电话)

  m:your roommate is a real sucker! she still believes your story even after talking to her brother?

  l:对,他跟她哥哥通完了电话,但是还相信我要和她哥哥同居了。我看我还是给她打个电话告诉她我是在开玩笑吧,否则她会把我的东西从窗子里都扔掉的。

  今天michael 教李华学会了两个常用语,一个是:sketchy,意思是一个人,或者是一个人说的话不可信,值得怀疑;另一个是:sucker, 指一个很轻信,很容易上当的人。这次《流行美语》就学习到这里,我们下次节目再见。
