Get Real 現實些吧
The script of this programme 本節目台詞


Feifei: 大家好，我是馮菲菲，您現在收聽的是 Authentic Real English.

William: And my name is William Kremer. Feifei, why are you smiling like that?

Feifei: 哦，沒事沒事。

William: No what is it? Is it me? Is there something wrong with my face?

Feifei: 你的臉從來就不太對勁，不過這倒不是我發笑的原因。我笑是因為我今天有個好消息。

William: Really? Go on.

Feifei: 我的一個朋友最近給我介紹了一樁好生意，絕對會賺大錢。我現在已經入了半個股… 如果一切順利的話，明年的這個時候我就會是一個百萬富翁了。想象一下吧，到時候我就是腰纏萬貫，每天燈紅酒綠，開著自己的豪華遊艇，住的是有遊泳池的大豪宅，手裏還會牽著一隻微型貴婦犬走來走去…

William: Wow, Feifei, that’s amazing. But you know what I think you should do?

Feifei: No, what?

William: I think you should get real. You’re not going to be rich this time next year. Your friend just wants to borrow some money off you.


Will she be rich in a year? Get real!
Feifei: I should get real?

William: If you say, “Get real”, it means be realistic. Don’t be a dreamer, don’t be deluded.

Feifei: Deluded 自欺欺人。那麽你說的 get real 就是說讓我現實一點、不要再做美夢了。

William: Let’s listen to an example.

Example

A: When did Geoffrey say the deadline was for this research?

B: Er… Tuesday afternoon.

A: Tuesday? Geoff needs to get real!

Feifei: 在這個例句中，首先說話的那個人認為對方沒有足夠的時間來完成一項調研工作，他說他們的老板需要 get real 對要求完成的時限有一個現實的估計。不過他這話也不是直接說給老板聽的，因為這個詞組的語氣是相當直率不客氣的。

William: Yes, you can also say, time for a reality check.

Feifei: A reality check. William, 這個說法的意思也是一樣的嗎？

William: Yes it is. So, Feifei, before you give your friend any more money I really think you should take a reality check.

Feifei: Hmm… 也許你說得對。嗯，看來我還是靠老老實實主持我們的《地道英語》來慢慢致富吧。

William: Now that will take a long time. Remember everybody that if you enjoy Authentic Real English, you can get more at www.bbcukchina.com.

Both: Bye bye!
