larry和李华刚下课。李华告诉larry一个非常好的消息。李华今天要学会两个常用语 get out of here和burned out。
　　lm: larry! 我有个好消息，说了你一定不相信，我买的彩票中奖了!
　　ll: really? get out of here!
　　lh: 我中了彩票，你不为我高兴，还让我出去？get out of here? 我们又不在屋子里，出去上哪儿去呀？
　　ll: no, listen，when someone tells you some good or exciting news, and you are really surprised, you can say get-out-of-here. it shows that you can barely believe the good news.
　　lh: 原来get out of here在这里是表示惊讶和难以相信的意思。按字面来解释不就是出去吗。
　　ll: you are right. so anyway, how much money did you win?
　　lh: 你说我的彩票呀？ 我中奖得了一千美元。
　　ll: a thousand dollars? get out of here! you are sooooo lucky! hey, i've got some good news too. do you remember that summer internship at the museum i applied for?
　　lh: 你申请暑假到那博物馆去实习，当然记得呀！怎么啦？他们接受你去实习啦？
　　ll: that's right! and not only that, but they are going to pay me a good salary too!
　　lh: 让你去实习，还给你很好的薪水？get out of here! 我简直不能相信。这比中奖还棒。　

　　ll: heh, well, i don't know about that... oh, by the way, you won't believe who i saw in the coffee shop near my apartment this morning, jet li!
　　lh: 什么？你在公寓附近的咖啡店里看见李连杰了？get out of here!
　　ll: he's a really nice guy. look, he gave me an autograph.
　　lh: whoa, get out of here! 李连杰还给你亲笔签名！你真幸运。
　　******
　　ll: well, li hua, what are you going to do with your lottery winnings?
　　lh: 我要把大部分存起来， 不过我想请几个朋友去听音乐会。你要不要去？
　　ll: umm, well... i really appreciate the offer, but i'm kind of burnt out right now. i need to stay home and rest.
　　lh: 你说你因为burnt out， 所以要在家里休息？什么是burnt out?
　　ll: i said that i am burnt out. to be burnt out means to become exhausted because of stress or too much activity.
　　lh: 噢， burnt out是指因为压力太大， 活动太多而疲惫不堪。 我看你就是活动太多，放假以后你天天都去参加聚会，所以才累成这样。
　　ll: that's right, during the school year i was burnt out from studying and working, and now that school is out, i'm burnt out from partying!
　　lh: 我知道你的意思。记得去年我本来要上四门课，同时还要当助教。没到两个星期，我就已经累坏了。
　　ll: good thing you dropped one of those classes. it's hard to be a good teacher when you are burnt out from studying yourself!
　　lh: 对，幸亏我放弃了一门课。 自己学习都应付不过来怎么才能当好老师呢！ larry, 你不能跟我们去听音乐会， 真是可惜。 你知道还有谁喜欢滚石乐队吗？
　　ll: the rolling stones? get out of here! you have tickets to the rolling stones concert? ok, never mind what i said earlier, i'm going with you!
　　lh: 我就知道你再累也不会错过滚石乐队的。 不过，larry，有的人说滚石乐队已经演出了四十年，现在已经太疲乏了- burnt out。
　　ll: i don't agree. i don't think they will ever burnt out.
　　今天李华学到了两个常用语。一个是get out of here, 意思是难以相信，还有一个是burnt out，意思是累坏了，精疲力尽。
