Get a kick out of
感到兴奋
Kick是“踢”,get a kick out of是什么意思呢?请看对话:
A: Hurry up, we will be late for the show!
B: Give me a moment. Last night a friend and I went out to a bar and got wasted, so I don't feel good right now.
A: I will make you a cup of coffee. You will be fine. ... Feeling better now?
B: Hey, don't speak so loudly. I still have a headache. I think you get a kick out of watching me suffer.
A: No, I don't get a kick out of watching you suffer. But I will really get a kick out of the show and don't want to be late.
Note: Normally you will feel painful if you get kicked by someone or a horse, however, "kick" here means "joy" and "excitement." "To get a kick out of/from" means to "enjoy doing something very much."
