[00:00.00] | Hi, I'm Chris and I'm here today with Li. |
[00:03.32] | Hello. |
[00:04.00] | Did you see that Superman film on television last night? I love Clark Kent. |
[00:09.52] | By day, he's just a regular guy, but he also has the power to fly. It's a classic movie. |
[00:15.78] | No, I didn't see it. |
[00:18.12] | The aerial on my roof is broken and I don't really know how to fix it, |
[00:23.05] | so I can't watch anything at the moment. |
[00:25.87] | That's a shame. |
[00:27.04] | If you want, I could have a look to see if I can fix it for you |
[00:30.95] | I'd be flying by the seat of my pants, but it's worth a try. |
[00:33.56] | You can fly? Like Superman? |
[00:36.32] | Do you have to wear your pants on the outside like him, too? |
[00:40.00] | No, I don't mean I can actually fly, |
[00:42.52] | and I'm certainly not putting my underwear on over my trousers. |
[00:46.32] | The phrase "to fly by the seat of your pants" means to do something difficult without being trained to do it or really knowing how. " |
[00:54.02] | So I don't have to worry about actually seeing your pants? |
[00:58.00] | No, Li, you don't have to see my pants. It’s just a phrase. |
[01:02.73] | I see, so you'll have a go at fixing my TV aerial, even though you aren't quite sure what you're doing. |
[01:09.83] | Exactly. Let's hear some more examples of the phrase in action. |
[01:14.68] | This report has to be finished today but no one is here to show me how to do it. |
[01:19.72] | I'll be flying by the seat of my pants, but I'd better try. |
[01:24.68] | John is trying to put new tiles in the bathroom, as he won't pay for a decorator to do it. |
[01:29.81] | He really is flying by the seat of his pants. |
[01:33.37] | So this is a phrase that we can use when you know very little about something, |
[01:38.91] | but you're going to do your best to complete the job. |
[01:42.08] | People often use this phrase when they have to do a job quickly, but don't know how. |
[01:46.79] | So, do you think you can fix my aerial? |
[01:49.57] | Well, I'll certainly give it a try, have you got a ladder, then? |
[01:53.42] | Sure |
[01:58.68] | Well, there you go. I really did fly by the seat of my pants, but it looks like it's fixed. |
[02:04.13] | Let me turn on the TV. |
[02:07.84] | It works. Great picture.You know what, Chris, even though you don't have your pants like Superman, you really are my hero. |
[02:18.00] | Erm, thanks. |

[02:18.00] | Erm, thanks. |
[00:00.00] | 嗨,我是克里斯,今天与我一同在这的是李. |
[00:03.32] | 大家好 |
[00:04.00] | 你有看昨晚的那个超人电影吗?里面的克拉克肯特超赞的。 |
[00:09.52] | 在白天,他只是个普通人,但他却有着飞翔的力量。这是一部很经典的电影。 |
[00:15.78] | 不,我没有看。 |
[00:18.12] | 我的屋顶上的天线坏了,真的不知如何解决它, |
[00:23.05] | 所以在那时我没看电视 |
[00:25.87] | 那真是遗憾 |
[00:27.04] | 如果你愿意,我可以去看看是否能帮上你。 |
[00:30.95] | 我会穿着我短裤飞去,不过这是一个考验。 |
[00:33.56] | 你可以飞?像超人那样? |
[00:36.32] | 还要像他那样也穿着短裤在外面? |
[00:40.00] | 不不不,我的意思不是说我真的可以飞。 |
[00:42.52] | 而且我也当然不会把我的内裤穿在裤子上。 |
[00:46.32] | 穿着短裤去飞" 的意思是,在没有被训练过或并不是真的知道如何去做的情况下,去做一些困难的事。 |
[00:54.02] | 所以我没有必要担心真的会看到你的短裤? |
[00:58.00] | 不,李。你不需要看着我的短裤。这只是个短语。 |
[01:02.73] | 我明白了,所以你在修理我的电视天线的时候,我甚至不知道你在做什么。 |
[01:09.83] | 确实如此,让我们听一些关于这个短语更多的应用吧。 |
[01:14.68] | 这个报告今天就必须要结束,但在这没有一个人向我说明如何去做。 |
[01:19.72] | 我得做一些没做过的难事,但是我最好还是尝试一下。 |
[01:24.68] | 约翰正尝试自己在浴室里铺新瓷砖,因为他不想花一分钱请装修工来做。 |
[01:29.81] | 他真的在做一些没做过的难事。 |
[01:33.37] | 所以这个短语是用在当你关于某事知道的很少, |
[01:38.91] | 但你却在尽你所能去解决一个工作。 |
[01:42.08] | 人们经常在必须要快点做一件事情,却不知如何去做时,使用这个短语。 |
[01:46.79] | 所以你认为你能修好我家的天线吗? |
[01:49.57] | 当然,我会试着去做一下,你有梯子吗? |
[01:53.42] | 当然。 |
[01:58.68] | 好吧,就这样了,我试着去做这件没做过的事了,但看上去好像没什么变化。 |
[02:04.13] | 让我们打开电视。 |
[02:07.84] | 它能用了,画面很好。你知道吗,克里斯,即使你没有把你的内裤像超人那样穿在外面,你也是我的英雄。 |
[02:18.00] | 呃......谢谢。 |
