Mind-blowing 驚人的好

Angkor Wat is mind-blowing

The script of this programme 本節(jié)目臺詞

Feifei: 大家好，歡迎收聽《地道英語》。我是馮菲菲，我的搭檔是 Harry。

Harry: Hello there! And the expression we are going to look at in this programme is 'mind-blowing', or, 'to blow your mind'.

Feifei: 我們在這期節(jié)目來學習如何使用 mind-blowing 或 to blow your mind 這個表達。So anyway, Harry, I've heard you really like travelling.

Harry: Me? Yeah, I love to travel, to be free. Yeah, I've travelled.

Feifei: 快給我們說說，你都去過哪些國家？

Harry: All over. Europe, South East Asia, North Africa, Central America.

Feifei: 你去過的地方還真多！Europe 歐洲，South East Asia 東南亞，North Africa 北非，Central America中美洲。最難忘的是哪兒？So which was the best trip?

Harry: Hard to say, they were all great in their own way, but I think my trip to Cambodia really stands out.

Feifei: 柬埔寨？為什么呢？有什么特殊原因嗎？

Harry: Well, it's got scenery, beaches, nice food and all that stuff, but the temples at Angkor Wat - well, they just blew my mind.

Feifei: 你去了柬埔寨的吳哥窟，你說吳哥窟 blew your mind？

Harry: Yeah, it's an amazing place. It's got incredible statues, roads, waterways all abandoned in the forest. Truly mind-blowing.

Feifei: 如果一樣東西，一件事或一個人特別出色，好的讓人難以置信，甚至可能會讓你停下腳步，放下手里的一切去靜靜的欣賞它的時候，我們就可以說這個東西 mind-blowing 或 it blew our minds。就好像有時我們說“某某事沖擊了我們大腦”，這里“沖擊大腦”表達的意思是正面的、褒義的。So what else can be mind-blowing?

Harry: Anything amazing. A painting, a film, a story.

Feifei: 我們還可以用 mind-blowing 來形容 nature 大自然、the ocean 海洋、the planets 星球等等。

Harry: Yes, those things are all totally mind-blowing if you stop and think about them.

Feifei: 我們一起來聽幾個例句。

• The latest tablet computer has an incredible camera and loads of other mind-blowing features.

• One of the most mind-blowing things about the universe is the distance between the planets.

• The battle scenes in the film were amazing - they just blew my mind.

Harry: So, to finish off, I thought I'd give you a mind-blowing fact about space and the universe. Something that will really blow your mind.

Feifei: 一個沖擊大腦的常識 - let's hear it.

Harry: Did you know that every hour, the universe expands by a billion miles in all directions?

Feifei: 宇宙以每小時10億英里的速度在不斷向外擴張！That is mind-blowing!

Harry: I know - just mind-blowing.

Feifei: 那我也給你來一個關于蟑螂的“沖擊大腦的”常識。

Harry: Cockroaches? Yuck! What is it?

Feifei: Cockroaches can live for several weeks without their head.

Harry: They can live without their heads?! Well, that's just blown my mind. Join us again for more mind-blowing English on Authentic Real English.
