內(nèi)容簡介

你身邊是否有朋友對任何外界事物不聞不問，不愿意聽取與自己不同的意見，也不接受新觀念，只和與自己有相同想法的人交流？聽菲菲和 Roy 的對話，學(xué)習(xí)用 “l(fā)iving in a bubble” 來形容這類人。

Feifei
大家好，歡迎收聽 BBC英語教學(xué)的 “地道英語” 節(jié)目。我是馮菲菲。

Roy
… and me, Roy.

Feifei
Roy, what are you holding?!

Roy
This? It's a sword.

Feifei
你拿一把劍是要干什么？

Roy
Well, I overheard you saying your friend Sandra is living in a bubble – so I asked my pal at the museum if I could borrow a sword to help your friend escape!

Feifei
No, Roy! 我剛才說 “Sandra lives in a bubble.” 的意思是她不愿意接受新觀念、新事物，而且她的朋友們也大多都有同樣的思維方式。“Living in a bubble” 就是這期節(jié)目中我們要教給大家的表達(dá)。

Roy
Ah… That makes more sense. I just imagined she might have got stuck in a bubble after washing her hands!

Feifei
Roy, your imagination never ceases to amaze me. You know what we should do?

Roy
I think we should listen to some examples.

Examples
Bob and his friends think that climate change isn't real. They live in a bubble!

Nelson lives in a bubble. He never tries new food or goes out with new people.

Geraldine doesn't want to meet my new friends. She thinks they live in a bubble.

Feifei
這里是 BBC英語教學(xué)的 “地道英語” 節(jié)目。我們正在教給大家 “l(fā)iving in a bubble” 這個表達(dá)的意思和用法。我們用 “l(fā)iving in a bubble” 形象地來形容某人生活在一個泡泡當(dāng)中，不愿意聽取與自己不同的意見，不愿意接受新鮮事物；也就是說，一個人與外界沒有聯(lián)系，與世隔絕。

Roy
I think it's sad when people live in a bubble, because they don't get to experience new ideas or have their minds changed!

Feifei
I don't live in a bubble. It's why I like working with you – because you have very different ideas to me and I like listening to them. You're always wrong, but I still like you.

Roy
Thanks, Feifei! I guess I should take this sword back to the museum.

Feifei
You should. Bye, Roy.

Roy
Bye!
