Eztalk美語【193】sick of being sick 受夠了生病
Three days later
Lily:Mom, I'm ready for school.
Mom:Let me feel your forehead. I'm so glad it wasn't strep throat.
Lily:I don't have a fever, and I'm ready for my test.
Mom:But I'm not sure you're strong enough yet. Here's some seafood rice soup I made. It's delicious.
Lily:I'm fine, Mom. I feel so much better. I want to go to school. I'm missing out on all the fun.
Mom:But the last two days were a weekend.
Lily:Let me go to school, please! I'm sick of medicine, sick of soup, and sick of being sick!
strep throat (n.)
鏈球菌感染，這是一種學(xué)童常見的咽喉感染疾病，有時(shí)會(huì)導(dǎo)致「扁桃腺發(fā)炎」tonsillitis

I have strep throat so don't kiss me.
我得了鏈球菌感染，別親我。
miss out on...
錯(cuò)過(某件事)

我不想錯(cuò)過那場(chǎng)計(jì)算機(jī)展。
be sick of...
對(duì)(某樣?xùn)|西)感到厭煩。因?yàn)閟ick也是「生病的」，所以說sick of being sick是在玩文字游戲
I am sick of computer exhibitions.
我對(duì)計(jì)算機(jī)展已經(jīng)感到厭煩了。
三天之后
莉莉：媽，我準(zhǔn)備好去上學(xué)了。
媽媽：讓我摸摸你的額頭。幸好這次不是鏈球菌感染。
莉莉：我沒發(fā)燒，考試我也已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好了。
媽媽：但我不知道你的體力夠不夠。這里有一些我煮的海鮮米粒湯。很好吃喔。
莉莉：媽，我很好。我感覺好多了。我想去上學(xué)。我錯(cuò)過好多有趣的事。
媽媽：但前兩天是周末啊。
莉莉：求求你讓我上學(xué)!我受夠了吃藥、受夠了喝湯、也受夠了生病!
