Finn
Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English. I'm Finn.

Helen
Hello everyone. 歡迎收聽BBC英語教學的《地道英語》節(jié)目。我是 Helen.

Finn
You look a bit different today.

Helen
Oh really? In what way?

Finn
Erm, you are glowing, you look so energised.

Helen
真的嗎？謝謝。我剛和朋友去了一個小島度假。

Finn
So you were away for the weekend.

Helen
是啊，特別棒，這是我最難忘的一次旅行了。

Finn
Sounds great! What was it like?

Helen
Sun, sea, just beautiful and tranquil.

Finn
Was it expensive?

Helen
價格超劃算，包括往返機票才不到200鎊。

Finn
Helen, you've sold it to me.

Helen
Em, but I don't sell holidays. I just make English-learning programmes.

Finn
No, what I mean is that I want to go. You've sold me the idea of going away on holiday to this island. You know 'you've sold it to me' is a very colloquial way of saying 'you've convinced me'.

噢，原來你說的“ You've sold it to me ” 這個短語并不是指“你賣了東西給我”，F(xiàn)inn 你的意思是說你完全被我的話所打動了，也想去度假。這是一個通俗表達，讓我們來聽幾個例句吧：

Examples
A: I lost five pounds just after a week on this new diet. It's definitely worth a try.
B: Right, You've sold it to me. I definitely need to get in shape for my school reunion.

A: Your phone looks amazing.
B: It's brilliant, does everything, fab photos and great apps. AND it only cost me 10 pounds.
A: 10 pounds. You've sold it to me. Where can I get one today?

Helen
If you are serious about going, you'd better hurry. I think the special offer ends today at noon.

Finn
What, I can't believe it. It's just past noon!

Helen
Oh no, I'm sorry. I'm sure there'll be another chance later.

Finn
Just my luck!
