歌词
Hi there Li.
嗨,李小姐
Oh, hi Chris.
哦,嗨,克瑞斯。
Are you alright? You seem annoyed?
你还好吗?你看起来有点生气?
Oh, I'm fed up. I had to stay late at work again yesterday.
哦,我受够了。我昨天又一次熬夜工作了。
I still didn't manage to finish all the work, so I came in early today as well.
我仍然不能完成所有的工作,所以我今天也来的很早
Sounds like you need a cup of tea. I'll put the kettle on.
听起来你好像需要一杯茶。我会放在水壶上。
What have you got to finish?
你必须完成什么?
Well, it's not even my work I have to finish. It's Lisa's.
好吧,我必须完成的不是我的工作。是丽莎的工作。
What do you mean?
你的意思是?
Since she started, she's always asking me to do her work for her.
从她开始工作时起,她总是请求我帮她做她的工作。
She'll start it, and then give it to me to complete, then leave early while I have to stay late to get it all done.
她会开始工作,再把工作交给我完成,然后早下班,然而我必须熬夜去做完所有工作。
Oh, I know how you feel. Lisa did the same thing to me last week. She's really difficult to work with.
哦,我知道你的感受了。丽莎上周对我做了同样的事。她真的很难以共事。
Normally I wouldn't give her the time of day, but she is the manager's secretary.
正常地说,我不会再理她了,但是她是经理的秘书。
You wouldn't give her the time of day? What time?
你今天没有留给她时间?什么时候?
No, no. It's an expression, a negative expression. What I meant was I wouldn't normally pay attention to her.
不,不。这是一种表达,一种否定的表达。我的意思是我不会再像平常一样的理她。
It's a bit of an unfriendly expression to use. Here are some examples.
它是一个不太友好的可以使用的词组。这是一些例子。
After the way Dave talked about me during the meeting, I wouldn't give him the time of day.
在那天的会议中,戴维以那种方式与我交谈后,我将不会理他了。
Politicians are all the same. They're never honest. I wouldn't give any of them the time of day.
政治家都是相同的。他们从来不会诚实。我不会理他们任何人。
Long ago, in Shakespeare's time, the phrase "good time of day" was a greeting often used. These days we say "good morning".
很久前,在莎士比亚的生活中,这个词组“一天中的好时光”是一组经常被使用的问候的话。
Or "good afternoon".
或者是“下午好”。
That's right. So to say that you wouldn't give someone the time of day means you wouldn't want to greet them or say hello.
是的。所以说出你不会给某个人时间意味着你不想问候他们或是说你好。
So the saying means you refuse to give someone your attention.
所以这句话意味着你拒绝理某个人。
Oh, I see.
哦,我知道了。
But sadly we can't avoid some people in the office, no matter how hard we try.
但是让人悲伤的是,我们不能拒绝在办公室中的某些人,无论我们多么努力的尝试。
Well, I'd better get back to work. I've got so much to do.
好吧,我最好回去工作。我还有那么多要做的。
well,good luck. Let me know if you need any help.
好吧,祝你好运。如果你需要任何帮助就告诉我。
Thanks Chris. See you later.
谢了克瑞斯。改天见。
