Professor: I agree. She definitely doesn't sound like an angel.
An angel? 小天使?
Professor: Yes. Sometimes if a child is really well behaved and nice, you can say that he or she is "an angel."
还天使呢,我看,Amber根本就是个小恶魔!
Elliot: What should I do if she misbehaves?
Hannah: Amber can be really stubborn, so it's probably best to just give her whatever she wants.
Elliot: You mean I shouldn't discipline her at all?
Hannah: No, don't try to discipline her. If things get out of hand, just call my cell phone.
Elliot: What time will you be home? Very soon, I hope?
Hannah: We will be back by midnight. Make yourself at home!
Elliot 有点打退堂鼓了。也是的,Amber听起来好象一点规矩都没有。
Professor: That's right, when parents don't discipline their children, they can get really "out of hand."
可不是么,对于这种不听话的孩子,家长更应该discipline - 严格管教,否则,他们就会out of hand - 管不了了。对了,Professor, Hannah让Elliot "make himself at home," 这是什么意思?
Professor: When you have guests at your house and you want them to feel relaxed, you can tell them to make themselves at home. It means "to act as if you are in your own house."
