The script of this programme 本节目台词

William: Hi I'm William and welcome to Authentic Real English.

Feifei: And I'm Feifei.

William: Feifei I'm going to set you up on a date.

Feifei: What?! Where did that come from?

William: Listen, I've got the perfect guy for you!

Feifei: 我真的不需要你来帮我做媒人找男朋友。

William: Come on Feifei!

Feifei: No!

William: He's tall, some might say handsome, he has an excellent job, with an amazing car! He even owns his own flat in the City. So he's a bit of a high-flyer.

Feifei: High-flyer? Is he on airplanes a lot or something?!

William: No that's not what I meant. He's a high-flyer, meaning he's very successful.

Feifei: A high-flyer 的意思是形容一个人事业非常成功。

A: How's Claire getting on?

B: Doing really well. She's turning out to be a real high-flyer.

A: Mark has been very successful. He's already one of the youngest people in a management role in the company.

B: Mark? Really? I never expected him to be a high-flyer!

William: High-flyer can also been used as an adjective: high-flying.

Feifei: High-flyer 这个短语的形容词性是 high-flying. 我们来听例句。

A: There are a lot of high-flying bankers in that part of town.

B: A lot of my school friends have become high-flying doctors.

William: So Feifei, are you going to go on a date with this high-flying friend of mine?

Feifei: No way.

William: Come on... David will be really disappointed...

Feifei: David? You mean, that friend you brought along to the work dinner last week?

William: Yes, that's the one.

Feifei: Well, you should have said!

William: Great!
