【英语口语】第35期&gt;&gt;&gt;Give someone the third degree 盘问某人 <br /><br />李华和Larry说好一起看电影，可是李华等了好久Larry才到。 <br />LH: Larry，你跑哪里去了，怎么这么晚才来嘛！我买好电影票在这里等你等了20分钟了！ <br />LL: Hey, don&#39;t give me the third degree! I&#39;m a little late because my mom called, that&#39;s all&#46; <br />LH: 原来是你妈妈打电话给你。对了，你又说我什么啦，我给你third degree?那是什么意思？ <br /><br />

LL: To give someone the third degree means to question that person aggressively in order to get him/her to confess to something&#46; <br />LH: To give someone the third degree就是盘问某人的意思。我可没有盘问你的意思。我只是等你等了很久，都快发火了嘛！ <br />LL: Sorry&#46; I didn&#39;t expect my mom to call&#46; My mom gave me the third degree, too&#46; She wanted to know why I haven&#39;t called her in such a long time&#46; <br />LH: 你妈也质问你为什么这么久没打电话回家。那你是怎么跟她说的？ <br />LL: I just told her that I&#39;ve been really busy&#46; The truth is that I avoid calling her, because every time I do call her, she gives me the third degree about something&#46; <br />LH: 你也别这样，我想你妈不是真的在骂你，或生你的气；她只是很关心你，很担心你嘛！ <br />LL: You&#39;re probably right, but sometimes she asks so many questions that it really feels like I&#39;m getting the third degree&#46; <br />LH: 如果你怕你妈问东问西的，也许你应该经常打电话给她。这样她就不会这么操心，也不会老是追问你一堆问题喽！Then she won&#39;t give you the third degree&#46; <br />LL: You know, Li Hua, that&#39;s a good idea! <br /><br /><br /><blockquote class="blockquote">From: http://www&#46;aa927&#46;cn/read-htm-tid-27649&#46;html  Powered by PHPWind&#46;com</blockquote>
