At a beach bar in Waikiki
Lisa: I think you should start with a sweet tropical cocktail.
Jun: You've really said the magic word, Lisa. It wasn't just coffee I had to abstain from in Salt Lake.
Lisa: Coconuts will help you get into that aloha spirit.
Jun: Great! Order me a fresh pina colada, followed by a strawberry daiquiri. Mmmmm!
Lisa: And then we'll get you in the water!
Jun: But I don't know how to swim.
Lisa: You'll just have to learn then!
(续上期)
莉莎：我想你应该先来一杯香甜的热带鸡尾酒。
小君：你说的正中下怀，莉莎。在盐湖城我不能喝的还不只是咖啡而已。
莉莎：椰子可以让你感染夏威夷的欢愉。
小君：太好了！替我点一杯新鲜的凤椰兰姆酒，之后再来一杯草莓代基里酒。呣！
莉莎：然后我们要让你泡泡水！
小君：但是我不会游泳。
莉莎：那你到时候非学不可啰！

As the air in the earth's atmosphere swirls around over our heads, the light passing through it from space to earth is continually bent in different directions. This causes a rippling effect, like when you observe something underwater, or look down a hot road in the summer. To our eyes, the stars appear to twinkle.
当大气中的空气在我们上方旋动，光线穿过大气层，从太空照射到地球，并且往不同方向折射，这样便形成了涟漪般的效应，这就好像你看着水底下的东西，或是在夏天里望着炙热的马路，道理是一样的。所以，在我们眼中，星星在闪烁。 | |

短语动词
动词加小品构成的起动词作用的短语叫短语动词（Phrasal Verb）。例如：
Turn off the radio. 把收音机关上。（turn off是短语动词）
短语动词的构成基本有下列几种：
1） 动词+副词，如：black out；
2） 动词+介词，如：look into；
3） 动词+副词+介词，如：look forward to。构成短语动词的副词和介词都统称为小品词（Particle）。
