标题:美语三级跳 Go English:012C 开车: 高级课程 听力内容: Professor: In the last episode, Phil borrowed his friend's car to take a weekend trip to Las Vegas. Now he has come back home and is telling his friend Becky about the trip. Phil回来啦!不知道他到底赢没赢钱? Phil: Wow Becky, you wouldn't believe how much fun I had on my trip to Las Vegas last weekend. Becky: Really? I've never been to Las Vegas. How was it? Phil: It was totally awesome. I spent the whole weekend partying and going to shows, and the best part is that I didn't even have to pay for it. Becky: You didn't have to pay for it? How is that? Phil: I won so much money gambling that it covered the cost of the trip. I'm telling you, there's no feeling like stepping on the gas and going out on a road trip. Phil真是好运气! 他在拉斯维加斯赢了好多钱,这次出去玩等于一分钱没掏! 不过,Professor Bowman, 他说stepping on the gas是什么意思呢? P: Winnie, "stepping on the gas" is like pushing down the accelerator pedal, which is also called the "gas pedal." 哦,stepping on the gas就是“脚踩油门,给车加速”的意思。Phil说,那种一脚油门下去,让车奔驰的感觉特别棒。 P: Exactly. Sometimes when Americans want someone to hurry up, they can tell that person to "step on it," which is a reference to stepping on the gas to go faster. |
