My mind has gone blank Rosie: Hi. Youre listening to Authentic Real English. Im Rosie and today Li is with me. Li: Hello! Rosie: Today were going to be talking about... Er... Li, what are we talking about again? Li: I dont know. Youre the one presenting the programme! 难道你不清楚今天的节目里你要说什么? Rosie: I know, but my minds just gone blank. Li: Your mind has gone what? Rosie: My minds gone blankwhich means its completely empty, like a blank sheet of paper . Li: Oh dear, completely empty? Rosies 感觉大脑空空,就像是一张白纸,什么都忘了。 Right, lets start with something basic. Do you remember what your name is? Rosie: Of course I remember what my name is! When you say your mind has gone blank, it means youve forgotten what you were going to say. Li: Ah, I see. 如果你突然忘了你要说什么,用英语表示就是 your mind has gone blank . Or in this case you completely forgot what you were supposed to be talking about in this programme ? Rosie: Exactly! Do you remember it happened to me when I had to give that presentation... Rosies boss: Right, now, Rosie is going to talk a bit about the project and its aims. |
