地道美语怎么说 第23课:不速之客

Donny在北京学汉语，他的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教他。今天是Jimmy要问的：不速之客。
Donny:Jimmy! How did your birthday party go last weekend?
Jimmy:不错! 大家玩儿得很高兴! 可是，有些客人我根本不认识。这些不速之客，用美语怎么说？
Donny:Ah-ha! These guests are called party crashers! Crasher is spelled c-r-a-s-h-e-r.
Jimmy:哦，聚会上的不速之客是party crasher. 现在想想，I got at least three party crashers. 客人太多，没注意，就让他们混进来了。
Donny:没错! Party crashers usually target big parties. They blend into the party so they don't get kicked out.
Jimmy:可不，他们混进来之后就猛吃猛喝，不太说话。
Donny:其实，Having a couple of freeloaders in your party was not that terrible.
Jimmy:freeloader?
Donny:Yes. f-r-e-e-l-o-a-d-e-r, freeloader 白吃白喝的人。
Jimmy:freeloader就是蹭吃蹭喝的人。我生日party上那几个party crashers明显是冲着吃喝来的，他们就是典型的freeloaders!
Donny:没错，Some party crashers come for the food and drinks, while others just want to meet new people.
Jimmy:还好我那天准备的酒足够多，虽然有些不速之客，大家还是能尽兴! Party结束后，几个朋友喝多了，还在我家睡了一晚上呢!
Donny:Jimmy, it's nice of you to let them crash for the night at your place. You're such a good host.
Jimmy:怎么又是 crash?
Donny:Here, the word "crash" means to temporarily stay or sleep at a place. For example, a friend might ask you:"Can I crash on your sofa for the night?"
Jimmy:哦，crash 就是暂住，那你说的"Can I crash for the night on your sofa?" 也就是“我能不能在你家沙发上凑合一晚上”。
Donny:That's right! Now let's see what you've learned today!
Jimmy:第一，派对上的不速之客是party crasher
第二，白吃白喝的人是freeloader
第三，凑和睡一晚，可以说 crash here for the night.
