The script of this programme 本節(jié)目臺詞
Helen: Hello, Welcome to Authentic Real English from BBC Learning English. I'm Helen.
Rob: And I'm Rob.
Dinosaurs
Giants from the past
Helen: Rob, can I ask you something?
Rob: Yes, of course. Go ahead.
Helen: My son's friends came to visit at the weekend. They were all in the bedroom playing with dinosaurs.
Rob: Sounds fun.
Helen: Yeah, I even let them watch a dinosaur movie and play a computer game. Then I heard one of them say his parents were dinosaurs.
Rob: Oh, dear.
Helen: I'm a mum, I don’t think I look anything like a dinosaur, do I?
Rob: No, you don’t look like one at all. You are 100% human! What did the boy say about his parents?
Helen: He said that they don’t have a TV at home, and that his parents don’t have mobile phones either. I was quite surprised by that.
Rob: No wonder he thinks his parents are dinosaurs. When we call someone a ‘dinosaur’, we mean they're living in the past, they're not very modern, and probably don't use a lot of technology.
Helen: 在英語里，當我們聽到某人被形容為恐龍時 a dinosaur，意思就是他們還生活在過去，行為和想法過時了，而且也不會使用現(xiàn)代化高科技的東西。
Rob: Exactly. Let’s hear some examples.
My grandfather just bought his first digital camera. I've been telling him to get one for years! He’s a dinosaur when it comes to modern technology.
A: Have you met Jane’s new husband?
B: Yes, he talks like someone from the 1930s. Really old-fashioned!
A: I know, he said he hates modern technology.
B: Oh, he’s such a dinosaur.
Helen: So calling someone a dinosaur means they're not in touch with the modern world.
Rob: Yes, a bit old-fashioned, maybe conservative in their thinking, and not keen for new challenges.
Helen: Well, I love modern technology.
Rob: Are you on Weibo? Weixin?
Helen: No, what are these?
Rob: Oh dear Helen! You are a dinosaur!
