2012年ESL之就医和人际交往 09 Getting Over a Fight

（单词翻译）

Getting Over a Fight 

Alisa: Don’t be mad. 

Sabir: I’m not mad. 

Alisa: Yes, you are. I’m sorry. I admit it was my fault. Will you stop moping now? 

Sabir: I’m not moping. I’m giving you the silent treatment. 

Alisa: I knew it! You’re still peeved¹ at me. What can I do to make it up to you? 

Sabir: You can leave me alone. 

Alisa: If I leave you alone to stew², you’ll replay the whole incident in your head and the next thing I know, you’ll hold a grudge³ against me. Won’t you just forgive me so we can move on? 

Sabir: What you said wasn’t just a slight. It was an out-and-out insult. 

Alisa: I know it was and I’m truly sorry. I’ll buy you lunch at your favorite restaurant to show you how contrite⁴ I am. 

Sabir: And you won’t say it again? 

Alisa: I promise I’ll never tell you again in front of your friends how much you look like Elvis – in his later years.
