笨拙 - 7第2课:笨拙 - 7【迷你小对话1】A: You’re such a bungling klutz, John.
You can’t juggle the New York Stock Market without having knowledge about how stocks really work.

B: I suppose you have to be a professional to juggle the market, not an amateur like me.
A: John,你这个木头脑袋。
你连股票是怎么回事都不知道,还想在纽约股票市场上玩花招。

B: 要想在股市上玩得如鱼得水,像我这样的外行可不行,你得是个精于此道的高手。
【迷你小对话2】A: Jan was so tactless today.
She asked Helen why she hasn’t got married yet.

B: She’s always like that.
Couldn’t she figure out that Helen can’t find a husband because she’s a little overweight?

A: Yes, but she didn’t understand the question would hurt Helen.
A: Jan遥没长脑子吧,居然问Helen为什么还没结婚。

B: 她老是那样,难道她不知道Helen是因为太胖才找不到老公的吗?

A: 她知道,她只是不明白这样问伤害Helen。
