JESSICA在北京學漢語，她的中國朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語怎麼說的詞，就會來請教她。今天是怡茹要問的.：夜貓子。
YR: Hey Jessica! What are you doing on Friday?
JESSICA: Hmm, I don't know yet. What' up?
YR: Some of us are planning a sleep over at my apartment. 我們幾個都是夜貓子，準備好好看場家庭影院，再睡到自然醒!! We are all late cats!
JESSICA: 哈哈，YIRU，that's not how we say it. We call people who stay up late "night owls"!
YR: Night owls?
JESSICA: Exactly. Owl is spelled o-w-l, owl, 是貓頭鷹。Night owl, 就是夜貓子。不過我可不是夜貓子, I usually hit the hay around 10...
YR: Wait a the hay? 我知道hay是稻草的意思，免費學習英語的網站，你..你爲什麼要打稻草啊?
JESSICA: 哈哈，YIRU! Hit the hay is just a common way of saying "to go to sleep". 就是睡覺的意思。
YR: 哈!真有意思，hit the hay! Hmm, I'm quite the opposite- I usually hit the hay very late, definitely after mid-night!
JESSICA: I really want to join you guys, but I never enjoy sleepovers. I'm a light sleeper. So normally I can't sleep well on sleepovers.
YR: Light sleeper? 讓我來猜猜，就是覺輕的意思，對嗎?
JESSICA: Bingo! A light sleeper can be easily awakened.
YR: 哦!那一睡着就雷都打不醒的人要怎麼說呢?
Jessica: It's just the opposite! You can call them sound sleepers.
YR: A light sleeper, 覺輕的人；a sound sleeper, 覺沉的人。我想，學英語的好網站，免費學英語網站，我們的sleepover party可能真的不太適合你! 那下次別的活動我再叫你吧!
Jessica: Okay! Now tell me what you've learned today!
