TALK ABOUT IT
大家說英語20240711
If a place is messy, that means there is stuff everywhere.
That might not necessarily mean it’s dirty, it just means it’s not tidy整潔的.
It is not clean, it is not organized, things are not put away where they should be put.
All these things we can call it mess.

living room就是客厅
bill就是账单
Lance points at some trash on the floor.
point就是指向
Trash就是垃圾
kitchen就是厨房

"Good morning, Todd!"
Says Lance as he walks out into the living room.
Lance and Todd are roommates.
They share an apartment in the city.
"Todd, what’s going on in the living room?"
"There are things everywhere."
"These things?"
"Oh, I was up late last night paying my bills.昨晚我熬夜付账单。"
Lance isn’t happy.
He looks at everything on the table and says,
"Please clean this up this morning.请今天早上把这个清理干净。"
"Please keep the apartment clean,"
Lance continues.
"I told you that when you moved in last month."
"You did. I’ll clean up right away."
Lance sits down and looks at his phone.
As Todd cleans up his things, he says.
"Lance, thanks for letting me move in."
"My last roommate was so messy."
"Sure," says Lance and points at some trash on the floor.
"Please pick that up, too."
Lance stands up.
"Just remember to keep things clean."
"I shouldn’t have to remind you."
"Of course. I’ll do my best,"
Todd says with a smile.
Lance smiles back and walks into the kitchen.
When he sees the kitchen table, he stops smiling.
"Why is the kitchen messy, too?"
Lance complains.
"Oh, sorry, I fixed myself a snack last night.昨晚我给自己做了点心。"
"I’ll clean it up later."
What should lance do?
Lance should just keep reminding Todd to keep the apartment clean.
Lance should tell Todd to move out.
Your choice! What would you do?

We can say there is a mess in the living room.
A bill is a payment something you have to pay.
When you live in an apartment, there might be a water bill or an electricity bill you need to pay for water and electricity.

说我昨天晚上熬夜找账单
I was up late last night paying my bills.
句中的up为形容词指起床或是还没上床睡觉的状态
而分词片语paying my bills是说明晚睡的原因
We were up late watching the movie.
我们熬夜看了一部电影
She was up early this morning watering her garden.

Please clean this up this morning.
He wants this mess to go away so they can have a clean and tidy living room.
If you’re pointing something out, you might use your finger and you might point, you might put your finger and show people what you’re trying to say when you are talking.
Trash is things you don’t want, you want to put them in the trash can and get rid of them.
Lance says, "I shouldn’t have to remind you."
He thinks Todd should just keep things clean himself.
If you fix yourself something it means you’re making yourself a snack.

I fixed myself a snack last night.
动词fix一般是指修理的意思但是也可以指准备饭菜或是整理等意思
Can the man at the repair shop fix your car?
维修店的那个男人能修好你的车吗
We need to fix lunch for the kids now.
我们现在需要为孩子们准备午餐

There is stuff everywhere.
I’ll clean it up later.
There is trash everywhere.
I’ll clean it up later.
