An apple-head 缺心眼的人，笨蛋

May:Trying to keep something from （向…隐瞒）me? Well, I’ve got your number （知道底细）.

Jim:What do you know? I’ve never let the cat out of the bag （泄密）, you know?

May:You are head over heels （深深地）in love with a girl in the hotel.

Jim:How do you know? Who told you so?

May:A bird told me （我不告诉你）.But there’s nothing wrong with that.

Jim:But there is something wrong with someone else.

May:What’s the trouble?

Jim:The department manager is all over （深深地）her. He say he loves her.

May:What about your friend? Did she fall for （爱上）him?

Jim:Of course not! She think he’s an apple-head （缺心眼的人） .She doesn’t like an apple-head man, you know.

May:It was a false alarm （虚惊一场）to me. Now you don’t have the butterflies in your stomach（心里紧张） ,do you?

Cost an arm and a leg 价格昂贵，宰人

May:Yor are in a bad mood （心情不好）today. What’s eating you?

Jim:I had an argument with Jenny. I asked her to go shopping with me and thought I could take the opportunity to talk sense into （开导）her. When I asked her to take a pick （挑一挑）at the fur coats, she refused to do what I liked her to do.

May:Maybe she thought fur coats are too expensive. Girls don’t like to pay through the nose （让人敲竹杠）,you know?

Jim:But I told her I would foot the bill. She still insisted on （坚持）not buying a fur coat. She argued that items like that cost an arm and a leg （宰人）.

May:She is a very good girl. If I were her, I wouldn’t let my money go down the drain （让钱打水漂儿）,either. You should appreciate that.

Jim:But I just wanted to please her so that we could sit down and have a good talk.

May:You can’t be more wrong. You can’t buy affections （收买感情）.
