Feifei
大家好，欢迎来到 BBC英语教学的《地道英语》节目。我是冯菲菲。

Rob
…and hello, I'm Rob.

Feifei
Rob, I'm having a bit of trouble with my computer…

Rob
What, again? What's the problem this time?

Feifei
我写了篇稿子，但存不了。我也不能打印。这台电脑有各种问题，特别不好用，你会修吗？

Rob
OK. Let me have a pop at it.

Feifei
A pop? Are you going to make it explode? That's a bit extreme, Rob. 

Rob
Don't worry, Feifei. If I have a pop at something, I just mean I'll try and do it – I'll have a go at doing something, like fixing your computer…

Feifei
Right! 原来在英语里，“have a pop”的意思是“尝试做某事 have a go at doing something”。OK Rob, have a pop then but just don't delete all my work.

Rob
Don't worry, I would never do that. Let's hear some more examples of the phrase, while I sort this out.

Examples
I'm going to have a pop at doing this online application for a passport – apparently it's really easy.

We had a pop at making a cake but we baked it for too long and it burnt!

Why not have a pop at yoga? I've heard it's good for your mind, body and soul.

Feifei
这里是 BBC 英语教学的《地道英语》节目。本集节目中介绍的表达是“have a pop”，它的意思是“尝试做某事，试一试”。So, Rob, you've had a pop at fixing my computer… any luck?

Rob
Ermm, not exactly. Everything seems to have disappeared from the screen.

Feifei
Let me look… no! 你把我的稿子给删除了！Rob, did you know that 'have a pop at' has another meaning? 

Rob
Oh yeah, what's that?

Feifei
Have a pop 和介词 at 搭配，还有另一个意思 – 就是“打人”。And I'm going to have a pop at you for losing my script.

Rob
Hold on, Feifei. If we don't have a script, we won't know what will happen next. 

Feifei
I think the listeners know, Rob, don't they? Bye.

Rob
Bye. Ouch!

Feifei
Bye.
