Mitchell: Can I talk to you in the kitchen for a second?

Cam: Uh, yeah. Uh, hey, guys, let's…let's just take five.

Mitchell: What's up with "21 jump street"?

Cam: Oh. Oh, well, their drummer quit, and I'm gonna fill in for him tomorrow night.

Mitchell: No, no. We have Pepper's après-ski fondue party tomorrow night, Cam.

Cam: Oh, no.

Mitchell: So you'll just have to tell your band that they're gonna have to find someone else.

Cam: You know what? No, I'm not gonna let these fellas down. I made a commitment.

M: You made two commitments, okay? And you know how Pepper is. Everything has to be perfect. He gets mad if you don't wear a big sweater.

Cam: Yeah, I remember. I got so hot last year, I almost went face down in the Gruyere.

Mitchell: So I'm going by myself. Is that what you're saying?

Cam: I just feel like I kind of need this.

Mitchell: To round out your college applications?

Cam: It's just that because I'm always home with Lily, I just feel like I'm going a little bit stir crazy. Look at the Den. Every time I finish painting it, I start all over again. It's like the Golden Gate Bridge. I'm gonna go back to jamming.

米切尔能去厨房借一步说话吗?

卡姆:好吧,伙计们,我们……我们休息一会儿吧。

米切尔:这些街头男孩是怎么回事?

卡姆:哦,呃,他们的鼓手不干了,明晚我要顶替他。

米切尔:不,不,明晚我们得去佩珀家的瑞士滑雪风巧克力火锅派对,卡姆。

卡姆:噢,不是吧。

米切尔:所以你得跟乐队说他们得另请高明。

卡姆:听我说,我不能让这些小伙子们失望,我已许下承诺。

米切尔:你许了两个承诺好吗?你也知道佩珀的。他对每件事都苛求完美,你不穿大毛衣他都会发火。

卡姆:是啊,我记得,去年可热死我了,差点一脸栽在芝士上面。

米切尔:你的意思是我一个人去?

卡姆:我只是觉得我很需要这个活动。

米切尔:完善你的大学申请书?

卡姆:我经常在家照顾莉莉,感觉有点心浮气躁。看看这个狗窝,每次粉刷完都想重刷,就像金门大桥。我要去演奏了。

现学现用说说看

Let's take five.

我们休息一下吧。

这里的five是five minutes的缩写,当然也不是一定只能休息5分钟,这里是表示“一会儿”的意思。类似表示休息一下的句式还有:

1.How about a lemonade break?休息一下喝点柠檬水好吗?

2.Let's take a coffee break.我们休息一下吧,喝杯咖啡。

3.Let's take a break.我们歇会儿吧。

4.Let's take a tea break.我们休息一下吧,喝杯茶。

5.It's time for tea.休息一下喝杯茶。

6.Let's take a rest.休息一下吧。

7.I'm tired, let's take a rest.我累了,歇会儿吧。

What's up with…?

怎么回事儿?

“What's up with…?”这个句式和“What's the matter with…?”是一个意思,用来询问“怎么回事儿?发生了什么事儿?”例如:

1.So what's up with you and the new guy?你和那个新来的家伙是怎么回事?

2.What's up with you and age?你怎么对年龄这么敏感?

3.What's up with the new air conditioner?这台新空调是怎么回事?

另外,“What's up?”单独使用时是美国人常说的寒暄语,从黑人语言中而来,是很常用的打招呼方式。
