英語(yǔ)趣味課堂：他喜歡貓的原因-The Reason Why He Likes Cats
Phil: The thing I miss the most, and it's going to sound really sad, is my cat.
Todd: Oh, that's cute.
Phil: Yeah, I love my cat. I don't know why. I'm a bit sappy like that, so I really miss my cat.
Todd: Oh, well talk about your cat. What's your cat like?
Phil: My cat is black, very fat, very stupid like most cats but very lazy like me so we have a lot in common but just she likes to wake me up at six o'clock in the morning and I really curse her and hate her. Still, I can't be angry about it.
Todd: Yeah, right.
Phil: And sometimes she'll bring a bird in, and she thinks she's having a great present by brining us a bird and my mom gets really angry and...
Todd: Ooh! Wow! You're cats still primitive. It still goes out and kills birds.
Phil: Oh, yeah, yeah, and occasionally mice because we live in the country so there's a lot of animals nearby and my cat will always try and catch them.
Todd: Oh, cool... So what's your cats name?
Phil: Chaz.
Todd: Chaz?
Phil: Yeah. We got her from a charity called the Cat's Protection League in England.
Todd: Oh, I'm sorry. What's that? Can you explain?
Phil: The Cat's Protection League is basically, there's a lot of homeless cats in England. People abandon them because they can't look after them or whatever reason and they will take them in and they will give them food and try to find them new homes and we found our cat from there.
Todd: So you saved Chaz?
Phil: Kind of, yeah. I think we saved him. Maybe or maybe we condemned him. I'm not sure.
Todd: So, what's cool about your cat, Chaz? I mean, why do you have this bond with your cat?
Phil: I don't know. Maybe we're on the same level. We both like to spend our weekends sleeping all day and doing as little as possible, eating a sleeping so maybe we're just on the same level, but I'm not really sure. We're just both as stupid as each other I think.
Todd: So, you would say you're definitely a cat person and not a dog person?
Phil: Yeah, yeah. I like dogs but I think cats are actually more intelligent on a... like if you throw a stick for a dog, the dog will always fetch it. The cat will look at it and fetch your own stick you idiot.
Todd: That's true. That's true. Well, anyway, hopefully you'll be able to see Chaz soon.
Phil: Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. I hope so.
