Larry和李华正在吃午饭。Larry好像心情不太好。今天李华会学到两个常用语：crummy和sack out。
LH: Larry，怎么啦？你好像不太开心，是什么事惹你不高兴？
LL: Oh, I'm just having a really crummy day. My crummy computer crashed again and my crummy air conditioner isn't working.
LH: 你的电脑坏了，连你的空调也坏了。你可真倒霉耶！不过，你说了好几个crummy，那是什么意思啊？
LL: When you're talking about a situation, crummy means miserable. When you're talking about an object, crummy means cheap and poor quality.
LH: 噢，crummy形容一个情况，是指非常难受、很惨。要是形容一个东西，就是指这个东西很次，质量很差。Larry，你真可怜，有没有什么我能帮忙的？
LL: Not unless you can fix my crummy computer and my crummy air conditioner.
LH: 抱歉，我真希望我能帮忙，可是我既不会修电脑，也不会修空调。你有没有通知你的房东，要他来修空调呢？
LL: Yeah, but he's not a very good landlord. He takes forever to fix anything, and even when he finally fixes something, he usually does a crummy job.
LH: 嗨，这样的房东！要就不给你修，就是修也修得不怎么样。这可真糟糕呢！What a crummy situation!
LL: You said it. I brought my computer to the repair shop and they say that they will have to keep for a week and it will cost $100 to fix.
LH: 什么！要在修理的店里放一个星期，还要一百美元？
LL: Yes, I hope they don't do a crummy job of fixing it. Well, if they do a crummy job the first time, then they should fix it the second time for free.
LH: 当然喽，如果一次没修好，他们当然得免费再帮你修。不过如果他们修理的技术太差，要我的话，可不想再回去找他们。
LL: That's understandable. Well, hopefully, they'll do a good job.
LL: I think part of the reason I'm having a crummy day is because I'm tired. I think I'll go home and sack out for an hour or two.
LH: 你累了？可你要回家做什么？什么是sack out?
LL: To sack out is to go to sleep. I want to go home and sleep for a while.
LH: 噢，原来to sack out就是睡觉。那不就和hit the sack意思一样嘛？
LL: That's right. If I sack out for a couple of hours, then I should wake up in a better mood.
LH: 对了，Larry，你怎么会这么累啊？
LL: Well, I didn't sack out until around 2 this morning because I was trying to fix my crummy computer.
LH: 哇！修电脑修到清晨两点，怪不得你那么累！你真应该早点休息！
LL: I know. It was so hard to get out of bed and go to work this morning.
LH: 那当然啦，半夜两点才睡觉，早上肯定不想起床。如果你现在回家睡觉，那你今晚还睡得着吗？
LL: I'm so tired that I don't think it will be a problem. I could probably sack out now and not wake up until tomorrow morning.
LH: 你累到这种程度呀？现在回家睡觉，可以一觉睡到明天早上？看你这个样子，你再要这样熬夜早晚得生病的！
LL：I don't believe you sack out at regular hour every night. You stay late too.
LH：嗯，我有必要时当然也会开夜车，但没有象你这么经常呀！你得自己注意身体嘛。
LL：You're right! I'll try not to sack out too late.
今天李华学到两个常用语。第一个是crummy, 可以指情况很糟糕，也可以指一样东西质量很差。另一个常用语是sack out，就是睡觉的意思。
