Back at the Robinson's, Jun phones Lisa in Hawaii
Jun: I can't wait to see you! I'll be getting in Wednesday night at 7:30, AA flight number seven.
Lisa: Great! So how are things?
Jun: These people are nice, but a bit strict. I haven't had coffee in days! They won't even drink my tea.
Lisa: Don't worry, hun. Soon you'll be with me in the tropics, drinking Kona's finest.
Jun: Two more days. Just two more days.
Lisa: It can't be that bad. You should be grateful you've won this trip.

(续上期)

回到罗宾森家,小君打给夏威夷的莉萨
小君:我等不及要见你了!我会搭美国航空第七号班机在星期三晚上七点半抵达。
莉萨:太棒了!那你还好吧?
小君:这些人很好,但是有一点太一板一眼。我已经好几天没喝咖啡了!他们甚至不喝我带来的茶。
莉萨:别担心,宝贝儿。你很快就会跟我待在热带地区,喝着上等的可娜咖啡啰。
小君:再两天。就只剩两天。
莉萨:没那么糟啦。抽中这趟旅行你该谢谢老天爷了。


重点解说:

★ the tropics 热带地区
★ strict (a.) 严格的,严厉的
★ hun (n.) 宝贝儿。这个字是honey更口语的说法
★ Kona (n.) 夏威夷西南海岸火山地区,该地盛产火山咖啡豆,称为’可娜咖啡’。Kona's finest是指’可娜最上等的名产’,因当地名产是咖啡豆,所以言下之意就是’可娜的上等咖啡豆’了
★ grateful (a.) 感激的

Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to conserve and manage it. People in the U.S. often attend seminars or read books on time management. It seems they all want to organize their time better. People do all they can to squeeze more life out of their time. The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed this view best: "Do you love life? Then do not waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of."

美国人认为时间是一项有限的资源,所以他们试着去爱惜时间且加以管理。美国人经常参加有关时间管理的研习会或阅读这方面的书籍,他们似乎都希望能把自己的时间安排得更好。人们想尽办法要在有限的时间内挤出更多的时间来。早期的美国英雄本哲明·富兰克林将这种想法表达得最淋漓尽致:‘你爱生命吗?如果爱就不要浪费时间,因为生命是由时间组成的。’
