流行美语第70课
现在Michael和李华在准备下午的考试。李华会学到两个常用语:to jinx和come off it。
L: Michael, 考试准备得怎么样了? 可别再像上次那样考砸了!
M: Ahh! Li Hua, don"t say that! You"ll jinx me!
L: Jinx you? 听不懂,什么是jinx啊?
M: Jinx. Jinx can be used as a verb or a noun. One way to jinx someone is to say something unlucky, like you just said.
L: 噢,jinx这个词可以作动词,也可以作名词。你刚才说:You"ll jinx me, 意思是你认为我说“这次你可别考砸了”,这句话不吉利,会让你倒霉。哎哟,Michael, 你那么迷信啊!
M: Well, some people believe in jinxes. For instance, a lot of people think that there is a jinx on the Chicago Cubs baseball team. It hasn"t won a World Series for 95 years.
