English @ the Movies: All Hands on the Deck (ZT)

Weclome to English @ the movies where we teach you American English heard at the movies.  The movie "In the Heart of the Sea" tells the story that later becoms the classic book Moby Dick.

It is 1820 and a huge whale tackles a New England whale hunting ship. The whale's willy matches its large size and the ship is broken into pieces. Let's take a look.  Watch for the phrase" All hands on the deck."

---Promise me, come back.

---I will come back as quick as summer's night, I swear.

---Centuries before, sailors feared sailing off the eadge of the earth.

---All hands, all hands on deck.

---But we were headed for the edge of the sanity.

So what does that men? "All hands on deck"

A). clean the deck

B). everyone needs to help

Listen again and see if you are correct.

...

"All hands on deck" means everyone needs to help. Often, it means an emergency and a lot of work needs to be done quickly. The phrase comes from sailling ship. The top levels of the ships are called deck. But you do not need to be on a ship to use it. "All hands on deck" can be used whenever you need help. And that is Engish @ the Movies.
