Feifei
大家好!欢迎收听 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。You are Rob…
Rob
… and you are Feifei. And if I may say so, what a great presenter you are!
Feifei
Oh, thank you very much.
Rob
You're welcome. And you are so talented. I don't think you really need me here to present this programme.
Feifei
Hmm… Rob 对我又是恭维,又是讨好,居心何在?
Rob
Err… so, perhaps I could go now, and you just carry on by yourself?
Feifei
Oh, hold on! I know the score!
Rob
What? You know the score? Already? But the match doesn't start for another 30 minutes.
Feifei
你把话题又扯远了!我刚才说 “I know the score!” 意思是 “我知道你想干什么!” 英语短语 “know the score” 用来表示 “了解情况,知道某事的真相”。Let's hear some examples.
Examples
You know the score – you can't leave work until you've finished all your tasks.
I think she knew the score – she didn't have the right grades to get into university.
We know the score – money is tight, so we won't be getting a bonus this year.
Feifei
你正在收听 “地道英语” 节目。以上我们一起学习了短语 “know the score” 的意思和用法。在日常交流中,当我们想表达 “了解情况,知道某事的原委,心中有数” 的时候,就可以说 “I know the score.” And, Rob, I know the score with you – you want me to finish this programme on my own so you can leave early.
Rob
Hmm, it's true, Feifei. I need to be somewhere.
Feifei
And this has got something to do with football?
Rob
Yes. I have a ticket to see my favourite team play – and the match starts in half an hour. So, if I could just…
Feifei
Sorry, Rob – no. I've got a ticket to the theatre, and the show starts soon, so I need to go now as well. See you tomorrow.
Rob
Oh. Bye, Feifei. Hmm, now I know the score – she gets to leave early, and I don't. Bye.
