# H( N. [9 S. x$ d; c' [如何用英语优雅地表达自己的愤怒?- f- W. M$ Q, w6 R. ^# \

% n: L3 v* y: `/ w很多人一生气,所有的英文都忘光了,平常英文就说不出口,更何况是吵架,所以满脑子浮现的都是脏话,这是很不好的。有人很绝,英文骂不过人家就用中文,反正对方听不听得懂都无所谓,重要的是让他知道你很凶,你正在骂他就行了。现在让我们来看看一些比较文雅的方式：
0 T2 e$ \. g7 P# R, }3 e
( f8 W4 c1 [3 n8 e9 @　　Hey!wise up!放聪明点好吗？
( ^  Y: S: L) e6 O% W$ }  x; _8 y4 h3 J9 T! y) Z( y4 r3 o
　　当别人做了蠢事时,你可以说,“Don't be stupid！”或“Don't be silly.”但这是非常不礼貌的说法。客气一点的说法就是：Wise up!你也可以用尖酸刻薄的语气说：Wise up, please.然后故意把please的尾音繽得长长的。也有人会说, Hey! grow up.意思就是你长大一点好不好?例如有人20岁了还不会自己补衣服,你就可以说Hey! grow up.这根wise up是不是也差不多呢? & y+ ?- C& U# V/ I# c0 D$ o1 o3 e# ?
9 b! m# }) m' U8 b- k& p7 l
　　Put up or shut up.要么你就去做，不然就给我闭嘴。
5 @' F. S- p) _$ J. f7 Y4 _4 _% O
1 b- f" W' ^# Y, U　　要注意的是，Put up字典上查不到“自己去做”的意思,但见怪不怪,很多口语都是字典上查不到的。这句话也让人想到一句成语：walk the walk, talk the talk,即说到做到,有点像是中文里的言行一致,或是只说：walk the talk也可以。
* y* X4 d+ ~, u/ q2 B$ W! k5 B' p- W+ Q. I- c
　　You eat with that mouth?你是用这张嘴吃饭的吗？ + b% w. c9 P; U9 \3 y, z
0 O' n- U* F/ d$ d: X
　　别人对你说脏话,你就回敬他这句,言下之意是你的嘴那么脏,你还用它吃饭？还有一种说法：“You kiss your mother with that mouth?”你用这张脏嘴亲你妈妈吗？所以下次记得如果有老外对你说脏话,不要再骂回去,保持风度,说一句,“You eat with that mouth?”就扯平了。
$ o+ a) ~5 \; _( {! \; o, }. g5 t% `: L+ k9 [8 z1 q, R9 M
　　You are dead meat.你死定了。 # b3 Z( E4 S* R% z- u
" o3 ^+ d  W2 H  i6 ]- b* f# J
　　也可以说：“You are dead.”你完蛋了。 7 K: R) m# e& o, I' T) @0 H

8 B3 o% }. c. B, ~, G/ @0 e　　Don't you dare!How dare you!你好大的胆子啊�_ % A0 `5 Z9 ?4 C, z
0 ~: |8 \% R1 r+ l, m1 I1 ~6 g! z" [
　　这句话可以在两种场合说,第一种是很严肃的场合,如小孩子很调皮,不听话，父母就会说,“Don't you dare!”意思是你给我当心点,不然等会就要挨打了。另一种场合是开玩笑,如有人说他要跟某网友约会,你说“Don't you dare?”就有点开玩笑的语气，你不怕被恐龙给吃了吗?
( p; v1 U( M8 }5 u* U4 g# P+ [" j
; G. Q4 r5 Q, {: {+ n7 Y　　Don't push me around.不要摆布我。 3 {/ m, b2 g" H
% T, r  F  F# ]3 Z) o
　　通常当我讲这句话时，我还会想到一个字“bossy”，像是老板一样,喜欢指挥别人。如：“You are so bossy. I don't like that.”这句话也可以单讲,“Don't push me.”或“Don't push me any further.”还有一句跟push有关的成语：push the button,指使,操纵。如：“I know why you are doing this, someone is pushing your button!”
' ^9 f$ e2 L, B. r, [3 O" Y: `: Q* s2 G/ C
2 x7 F( Q4 L0 c" z; k. D5 |　　You want to step outside? 0 j0 k& Z, S. C$ B, g& g+ J

: }% n! M) Q  z/ @7 n) M3 S# w
　　老外跟我们一样,二个人一言不合吵起来了,可能就有人要说这句了，指的就是要不要出去打架啦。我还听过类似的用法,如：“Do you want to pick a fight?”你要挑起争端吗?或“This means war.”这就意味着跟我宣战。
" O: s# I" X, h) f, ]% J- h, C( O5 Z
　　You and what army?You and who else?你和哪一路人马啊？ " U: ]* ~, k# ~+ X! G

2 K, Z/ d; L+ J# c' A; L4 L  ?5 q0 O　　要是有人跟你说“Do you want to step outside?”就回他这一句。意思是说：“喔�_�_那你找了多少人来打架啊?”有时候电视里出现这句对白时,还会打出一排军队的电脑动籣,非常有意思。还有一句话也很好玩：“Who's side are you on?”这是在快要打架时,你问人家：你到底是哪一边的?

A Blonde Joke For You
* s! }* W5 i# o& N+ M8 a5 G7 E& e0 X5 D% S2 e7 y7 F1 W
Note: 美国人觉得金发女生blonde girls最美丽了。很多美国人都把她们的头发漂白成金色的，叫bleach your hair. 不过虽然她们喜欢blonde girls, 可又认为美丽的女生没大脑，所以就特别喜欢取笑blonde girls,因此也就有了blonde jokes,也就是金发美女没大脑的笑话。有些真的很毒 some are very mean! 这些blonde jokes 通常是用脑筋急转弯的方式呈现的。Here are a few for you2 S$ l) ?7 i1 {5 H

on the house字面上是“在房子上面”的意思，但这里是一个片语，意思是“免钱，店长请客”。比如说在酒吧喝酒，有时候酒保会请你喝一杯，他就会说“This one is on the house" （这杯我请客）。不过笨笨的blonde girl连简单片语都听不懂，就傻傻爬到屋顶上找酒喝了。（是不是我们也会理解成在房顶上有酒啊？恐怖，别打我哦，我不是故意的）

2 X" V# |& I7 o5 c中国人大多喜欢温文尔雅的儒生形象。这也是中美文化差异之一喽！在美国，经常会听到美国女生说“He's so cute!(他好帅哦！)"这里用的是cute, 而不是handsome.不过两者的意思是一样的，都是好看的意思。只是美国人习惯用cute这个词。当然了，可不是指男生很可爱哦。除了说男生的脸张得cute之外呢，她们还会注意男生的小屁屁。她们会说"He has such a cute butt! (他的小屁屁长得真好看！）" 当然美国男生也会注意女生的小屁屁啦。我就亲耳听到很多男生讲过某个女生的小屁屁很翘，很性感哦。美国女生喜欢那种爱运动，体格很健壮，有肌肉的男生。所以校队的运动员，特别是football(美式橄榄球)球队的男生，通常都是very popular的。1 _5 U1 j- ?0 |9 A

They care about the build of their bodies（他们很重视体魄）。他们欣赏masculine, macho(有男人味、有肌肉的男生）。很多人从小就养成去健身房运动的习惯（work out at the gym)。他们不喜欢pale (苍白) and flabby (肌肉松弛)的男生。我没生病前也经常去gym哦。：）
