Jessica在北京學漢語，她的中國朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語怎么說的詞，就會來請教她。今天是小北要問的：無語。

　　Jessica; Xiaobei! You look upset. What happened?

　　Yiru: 別提了！我有個朋友欠錢不還，拖了好長時間了，每次都找各種理由搪塞我！氣死我了，以前我還和她理論，現在我簡直是…簡直是…無語了我！

　　Jessica: I see. You're so tired of your friend's excuses that you are speechless.

　　XB: Speechless？ 原來這就是無語的意思。

　　Jessica: Yes. For example, you can say "she was speechless after learning her boyfriend was dating another woman."

　　XB: 哦，知道男友跟別的女生交往后，她氣得說不出話來。

　　Jessica: Exactly. Basically, you can use "speechless" to mean something so bad or so surprising that you don't know what to say.

　　XB: I see. 跟你說，我認識一個女生，她特別虛偽，總是假惺惺地稱贊別人，轉過頭來就說人壞話。Every time I see her being so fake, I'm speechless!

　　Jessica: I bet you also roll your eyes!

　　XB: Roll my eyes?

　　Jessica: If you roll your eyes, you're showing that you don't believe someone or you aren't interested in what they're saying.

　　XB: 哦，就是因為不相信或者不耐煩而翻白眼。這個說法真形象! 就在今天早上，I got an email saying I was selected to win 5 million dollars. It also asked for my bank account.

　　Jessica: That's fishy! It must be a scam!

　　XB: 我當然知道這是詐騙郵件了！I rolled my eyes when I read it! 不過你說，要是我哪天我真中了500萬…

　　Jessica: That would blow me away! Meaning I'd be really amazed!

　　XB: 哦，to blow someone away就是使人大吃一驚，不過，這應該是用在形容什么好事兒的時候吧？

　　Jessica: Exactly. For example, My new computer ran so fast it blew me away!

　　XB: Or Jessica has so much cash hidden under her bed it blows me away!

　　Jessica: What? Me? Cash? Now I'm rolling my eyes, Xiaobei!

　　XB: 我來總結一下今天學的詞：因為厭惡或者吃驚而無語，用speechless; 因為不耐煩或不相信而翻白眼是roll one's eyes; 某些好事讓人大吃一驚用blow someone away.
