The script of this programme 本节目台词

Helen:This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I'm Helen.

Zoe:Hi,我是刘佳。

Helen:Today we're going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.

Zoe:在今天的节目里，我们要一块儿来学学在英语中出现的新词儿，Helen，今天我们要学的是什么词呢？

Helen:Today's new word is 'shades'. shades.

Zoe:Shades. 你能给我们讲讲它的意思吗？Helen?

Helen:Well, shades is another word for sunglasses.

Zoe:我知道 shade 在英语里是阴暗，阴凉处的意思，所以我想把太阳眼镜（墨镜）说成 shades 可能也是从这个意思来的吧。可是我们应该怎么用它呢？

Helen: Well, it's an informal word. so you could say to a friend 'I need to buy some new shades for my holidays`.

Zoe:哦，原来 shades 就是在不正规场合时候用的，墨镜的意思

Helen:That's right.

Insert 录音片断

A: Why have you got your shades on? It's not that sunny outside.

B: I know, but I've got a terrible headache and my eyes hurt in the light.

C: Who's that guy over there?

D: What? The one wearing shades? He looks like a rock star or something.

Zoe:Do you like wearing shades, Helen?

Helen:Oh yes, especially when it is sunny.

Zoe:我也是。那冬天呢？在冬天你也喜欢戴墨镜吗？

Helen:No. I only wear my shades in the sun.

Zoe:你戴墨镜的样子一定很酷

Helen:Like a Hollywood star!

Zoe:哈哈，你别臭美了，你以为你戴了墨镜之后就真成了Hollywood明星了呀！

Helen:It's true though, my shades are really cool.

Zoe:好了好了，确实挺酷的，行了吧

Helen:Anyway, let's recap – shades – is an informal word for sunglasses.

Zoe:墨镜就是 shades，对很多人来说，有一副漂亮的太阳眼睛可是很重要的。我们的时间又要到了。
