今天Larry和李華在校園里閑逛，校園里到處都貼滿了校園選舉傳單。他們正在討論到底給誰投票。

LL: Li Hua, what about Laura Wilson?I think she is so wishy-washy.

LH: 嗯，Laura Wilson是還好啦。可她不是經(jīng)常改變立場(chǎng)嗎？你還說她wishy-washy。那又是什么意思啊？

LL: To be wishy-washy is to be weak and indecisive.

LH: 原來wishy-washy的意思就是猶豫不決，拿不定主意啊。照這么說，Larry, 我是不是能說一個(gè)經(jīng)常改變主意的人很wishy-washy?

LL: Yes. I can also call you wishy-washy if you can't decide which candidate to support.

LH: 嘿！我才不是wishy-washy呢！我只是要仔細(xì)地想一想，到底把票投給誰最好！

LL: I know, I'm just teasing you. Can you give me another example of wishy-washy?

LH: 你要我舉個(gè)例子啊？哎，有了，我們的朋友Lisa，她一直下不了決定是不是該和她男朋友分手。她呀！ 就是標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的wishy-washy.

LL: Yes, you could call her wishy-washy because she can't make a decision and act on it.

LH: 說到做決定，我還沒有決定是不是該為下學(xué)期的一個(gè)會(huì)議寫報(bào)告。要寫的話，負(fù)擔(dān)很重，不過會(huì)得到學(xué)術(shù)界的重視。我到現(xiàn)在還決定不了。

LL: Quit being wishy-washy and make a decision. If it's worth it, then it's worth it. If not, then forget about it.

LH: 你說得到容易，值得就值得，不值得就算。我并不想wishy-washy，就是不想做錯(cuò)誤的決定。

LL: Sometimes, you have to take the risk.
