今天我们接着来学习第一集。
86/100 看《摩登家庭》，学地道口语（3）
1.
Luke用老爸Phil给买的toy gun不小心（accidently)打到了二姐Alex的胳膊，二姐向爸妈告状：
Alex: Luke just shot me!
....
Clarie : What did I tell you if you got him a gun? Deal with this! 处理吧！
Phil: Buddy , uncool.
Clarie: That's it? (就这？） No, no, no, the agreement（共识，我们说好的是） was that, if he shoots somone, you shoot him.
Phil：We were serious （认真的，当真的）about that?
Clarie: Yes, we were and now you have to follow through（执行，按照提前达成的共识去执行）.
按照上面这个对话我们可以再改编一个：
比如说，妈妈不喜欢让孩子Joe和另一个孩子Jason玩，因为那个孩子经常欺负自己家孩子，爸爸有不同意见，他们达成的协议是如果孩子再被那个孩子欺负，爸爸就要上门去找对方家长理论：
Joe is back home crying: Jason just beat me, it hurts.
M: Are you OK?
What did I tell you if you let him play with that kid again? Deal with this!
F: Don't cry Joe, you are a big boy .
M: That's it? No, the agreement was that if Jason beats him again, you gonna talk to Jason's parents.
F: We were serious about that?
M: Yes, we were, and now you have to follow through.
