Allison and Nick are sitting in the lounge after the landlord just paid them a visit…
Allison: I can’t believe that the landlord is putting up the rent again! I couldn’t really afford the original rent in the first place! What am I gonna do?
Nick: You’re always going on about money. If you can’t afford the rent, why dont you move out?
Allison: Coz it is really near to work. You know that I dance at ‘Equinox’ disco! It is just around the corner.Nick: Well what are we gonna do? As a journalist I’ve found out that Houhai has become more and more popular as a bar destination. I thought something like this would happen! What can we do about it?
Allison: I know. Why dont we have a group meeting tonight after everyone is back from work to discuss it?
Nick: Sure.
房東剛走，Allison 和Nick 坐在客廳里。
Allison：我簡(jiǎn)直不能相信房東竟然又漲房租了!原來的房租我就真的承受不了了!該怎么辦啊?
Nick：你老是嘮叨關(guān)于錢的問題。如果你住不起，為什么不干脆搬出去?
Allison：因?yàn)檫@里離我工作的地方很近。你知道我工作的那家‘Equinox’迪廳就在附近。
Nick：那我們?cè)撛趺崔k?以我記者的身份觀察，后海的酒吧越來越多了。我想事情肯定是這樣的!我們?cè)撛趺崔k呢?
Allison: 我知道。我們?yōu)槭裁床坏却蠹叶枷掳嗷貋黹_個(gè)會(huì)商量一下呢?
Nick: 好。
好用句：
To go on about (something) 長(zhǎng)時(shí)間談某一件事(尤指抱怨或令人生厭)
如果有人總是不停地說一件事情的時(shí)候，就可以用這個(gè)句型。
Eg. He really loves sport! He always goes on about soccer and basketball!
他真是太喜歡體育了，總是嘮叨足球和籃球。
Later that evening, a group discussion was held.
Melissa: God it’s hot in here.
Allison: You’re always complaining how hot it is! You shouldn’t wear such big clothes then! Why dont you go and change into a T-shirt or something.
Melissa: No, actually I’m ok now. As for the flat we could just rent out the spare bedroom. What do you guys think?Yummy: That is a really good idea. I think that it solves the money problem.
Kurt: I agree. It makes sense as otherwise it is just wasted space.
Nick: I hope we get a guy! We need a balance in the house, as there are too many girls!
Allison: Hey! Well I hope it is a girl as girls are better than boys!
Nick: Dont get me started! But whatever, I think that we should put an ad for a new roommate in the local paper。
晚上，大家一起商量。
Melissa：天哪，這里好熱哦。
Allison：你總是抱怨這兒熱!你就不該穿那件厚衣服!干嘛不換件T-shirt或別的。
Melissa：不，事實(shí)上，我現(xiàn)在感覺還行。至于我們的房子，我們可以把那間空房間租出去，你們覺得怎么樣?
Yummy：這主意不錯(cuò)。我覺得那樣可以解決我們的租金問題。
Kurt：我同意。這主意挺明智的，不然我們就浪費(fèi)空間了。
Nick：我希望我們可以找個(gè)男的!這里女生太多了，我們要平衡一下男女人數(shù)。
Allison：嘿，我希望找個(gè)女生，女的比男的好!
Nick：別跟我提這個(gè)!但不管怎樣，我認(rèn)為我們應(yīng)該先在報(bào)紙上登個(gè)找房客的廣告。
好用句：
Dont get me started (on something) 別跟我提這個(gè)!(不然我就住不了嘴了)
A: I hear you didn’t do too well on your last test.
我聽說上次考試你考得不怎么樣。
B: Don’t get me started on that! I lost all my notes the night before the exam!
別和我提這個(gè)!考試前一個(gè)晚上，我把筆記丟了。
