alcoholic [ˌælkəˈhɒlɪk] n. 酒鬼，酗酒者；酒精中毒者； adj. 酒精的，含酒精的；酒精中毒的
obstreperous [əbˈstrepərəs] adj. 喧嚣的，喧闹的；不服约束的
· enjoy oneself 玩得开心，玩得愉快，尽情享乐，尽兴
enjoy oneself 可与 have fun、have a lot of fun、have a wonderful time、have a good time、have a great time 替换，均为“玩得开心，玩得愉快”之意。
· take a French leave 不辞而别，不告而别
leave是“离开”的意思，但前面加上一个French做定语，其意义就变化了。take a French leave意为“不辞而别”，并不是因为法国人喜欢不辞而别，而是因为在18世纪，法国人性格随便，当参加社交聚会时，没有向主人告别的习惯，所以现如今take a French leave就表示“不向主人告别就离开”。
