Leonard失恋33天之round 6: 约会前综合症

 

Leonard: How do I look?

Sheldon: Could you be more specific?

Leonard: Can you tell I’m perspiring a little?

Sheldon: No. The dark crescent shaped patterns under your arms conceal it nicely. What time is your date?

Leonard: 6:30

Sheldon: Perfect. That gives you two hours and 15 minutes for that dense molecular cloud of aromas to dissipate.

Leonard: Is it too much?

Sheldon: Not if you’re a rugby team.

Leonard: By the way, if it should ever come up, you didn’t join us because you stuffed yourself with a chicken carbonara sub at Quiznos.

Sheldon: Why would I join you?

Leonard: No reason. Oh, you know what, maybe this isn’t such a good idea.

Sheldon: Oh, no, well, now there’s always the possibility that alcohol and poor judgment on her part might lead to a nice romantic evening.

Leonard: You’re right. Alcohol, poor judgment—it could go well.

Sheldon: Of course there is the other possibility that this date kicks off a rather unpleasant six months of the two of you passing awkwardly in the hall, until one of you breaks down and moves to another zip code.

Leonard: You could’ve stopped at it could go well.

Sheldon: If I could’ve, I would’ve.

 

场景介绍:

赴约前的Leonard十分紧张,汗流不止,甚至有了取消约会的念头。谢耳朵不动感情的“安慰”道:酒精和糊涂可能会让约会十分顺利。Leonard听完觉得很有道理的样子,谢耳朵继续补充道,也有可能约会失败,导致两人在之后的6个月很难熬,在走廊里只能尴尬得擦肩而过,直到其中一人崩溃,并搬到别的州。

 

场景词汇:

  1. 注意对话中出现的【specific】这个词。【adj. 明确的,特定的】【派生词: specialization n. 专门化】【反义词: nebulous adj. 模糊的】
  2. 注意对话中出现的【conceal】这个词。【v. 隐藏,掩盖】(这个词经常作为GRE填空中的线索词,连接的前后两个对象之间取反)【类似功能的词还有: belie, mask, veil, obscure】
  3. 注意对话中出现的【lead to】这个短语。【导致】(这个短语经常作为GRE填空中的线索词,表因果,因与果的部分同义对应)【类似功能的短语还有: result in, result from, stem from, derive from】
