[첼린지 Day11_ ebs 영어회화]ebs 파워잉글리쉬 스크립트 13.may.20/My sister doesn't understand my life style

 

 

11. My sister doesn’t respect my life style

 

A: Riky, what’s wrong?

 

B: Ever since I move in with my sister, she has been very passive-aggressive about me being a vegan.

 

A: That’s strange. I think your sister could learn a thing or two about healthy eating from you even if she didn’t give up animal products. What did she do to you?

 

B: Well, she will cook dinner and tell me it’s vegan, then when we’re about to eat she will tell me she added pork or chicken.

 

A: So she says one thing and then does the opposite. Well, that’s not very nice.

 

B: And don’t get me started about all the leather and fur she wears.

 

 

 

** move in with somebody: to start living with somebody

 

** passive-aggressive: negative action but the way they show it positive/

                              being angry but pretending to be someone nice

 

Ex) My boss said my report is great but not as good as John’s. =>> It sounds like classical passive aggressive behavior.

 

** learn a thing or two: learn/ gain more information about something

 

Ex) I could learn a thing or two about cooking from my mom.

=>>I know how to cook but gain more information or tips from my mom

 

** don’t get me started: I don’t even want to start to talk about it. Because it’s too much to say or I don’t like this topic.
