[b]The script of this programme 本节目台词 [/b]

[b]Neil:[/b] Hi Helen, would you like to go shopping this afternoon? I'd like to blow some money!

[b]Helen:[/b] Wow, Neil, that's an offer I can't refuse. I'd love to go shopping with you, but first we have to present the programme.

[b]Neil:[/b] OK… Let’s tell the listeners about that expression – to blow some money.

[b]Helen:[/b] 欢迎收听BBC 的地道英语, 我是 Helen.

[b]Neil:[/b] And I'm Neil. In Real English we look at words and expressions you might not find in your dictionary. Today's expression is to blow money.

[b]Helen:[/b] Blow 平时的意思是吹，比如吹风, 吹气。但是在这里它又有另外一个意思就是花很多很多钱。

[b]Neil:[/b] Yes, if you blow money you spend a lot of it. There's also a sense of being wasteful.

[b]Helen:[/b] Wasteful – 浪费。 如果一个人 'blow money' 吹钱，其实也就是说他花钱太浪费。

[b]Neil:[/b] Someone who is very extravagant might blow money.

[b]Helen:[/b] Extravagant – 奢侈。让我们听几个例子吧, Neil.

[u][b]Example[/b][/u]
[i]A: My credit card bill is huge this month.[/i]
[i]B: Why’s that?[/i]
[i]A: Well I blew 120 pounds on that new dress. It’s lovely, but I don’t even know when I can wear it![/i]
[i]C: My sister never has any money, even though she’s got a good job. She usually blows about 100 quid every Saturday on going out.[/i]

[b]Helen:[/b] 在第一段对话中，这位女士告诉她的朋友，她花了不少钱买了一条新裙子。

[b]Neil:[/b] And it was a bit of a waste of money.

[b]Helen:[/b] 结果她都不知道自己有没有机会穿这条裙子，这不摆明了是浪费嘛！

[b]Neil:[/b] And in the second example, the man’s sister blows money on going out.

[b]Helen:[/b] 这位男士说他的妹妹每周都花100英镑出去玩，所以她存不了钱! 好了，我们再来复习一下，今天的新表达是:

[b]Neil:[/b] To blow money.

[b]Helen:[/b] 意思就是一次花很多钱，而且还是比较浪费的那种。

[b]Neil:[/b] We’ve run out of time now – let’s get to the shops and blow some money.

[b]Helen:[/b] Fantastic. 我们下期节目再见!

These are not normal practice.:80000

why not???

Liu never blows money.
Liu isn't good at blowing money.
Liu can hardly blow any money.
Liu has no sense of blowing money.
... ...

用于第三人称好像还不错， 只是感觉用于第一人称不是很常用！

为什么呢？

所以我说：warren.......
没说：warren 你.....

这里一顶二的有点力不从心啊， 我看下一会决定是闪还是搬救兵， 或者有谁路见不平的？

小心搬来一个，结果1：3哦～～
