一帆风顺-英语听力

[00:01.25]Hello. I'm Rob. And this is Li.
大家好，我是罗伯，这位是李。 [00:03.53]Hello.
大家好 [00:04.41]Now, the weather is so great today we're outside on the sea, sailing in this beautiful boat. So Li, what do you think?
现在，天气晴朗，风和日丽，我们正乘着这艘美丽的帆船航行在海上。李，现在有何感想呢？ [00:11.92]Wow, impressive. Rob, I didn't know you had a sailing boat. In fact I didn't know you could sail a boat.
哇哦，这令人印象深刻，罗伯，我一直都不知道你还有帆船。我的意思是：我不知道你能驾驶帆船。 [00:20.70]Oh, don't worry Li, I know what I'm doing.
喔，别当心，我知道要怎么操作这艘船。 [00:23.75]Oh mind that rock.
噢！小心那个岩石！ [00:24.88]Whoa,phew it's okay Li. I'm in control, just keep your hand on that rope.
喔！......嘘......没事儿，李。我控制住船了，你的手可要抓牢那根船绳了。 [00:32.70]We've got the wind in our sails, the sea is calm. We can just easily sail around this island and be home in time for tea.
现在风正吹着我们的船帆，海面很平静。我们可以轻松愉快地绕着这个小岛航行，然后准时回家喝茶。 [00:41.11]Oh right. I thought our excursion was going to be trouble free, or plain sailing.
是的，我想我们这次的航行将不会遇到什么麻烦，一帆风顺。 [00:49.67]What? Plain sailing? We're not sailing any planes Li.
什么？飞机航行？我们可不是在驾驶什么飞机，李。 [00:54.73]No Rob. Plain sailing. It's an expression used to describe an activity that goes well or smoothly and is easy and uncomplicated.
不是的罗伯，“一帆风顺”是一种用于描述事件往好的的方向发展，或者是顺利流畅、简单不复杂的短语。 [01:05.60]Yes of course. This sailing is going well and it is actually quite easy. So you're right. This is plain sailing.
那是，这趟航行一切进展顺利，而且相当简单。所以你说的没错，这是一次一帆风顺的航行。 [01:14.00]But can we only use the phrase to describe sailing boats?
但我们只能用“一帆风顺”这个词组来表达帆船航行顺利吗？ [01:17.68]No. Although it was originally a sailing term, it can really refer to any activity. Listen to these examples.
当然不是，虽然这个词组的原型是描述航行，却可以用来描述任何与之有关的活动。听听下面这些例子。 [01:27.32]Driving through the city was difficult but once we were on the motorway it was plain sailing all the way.
驾车通过城市的道路很困难，但是一旦我们上了高速，那就一路畅通无阻了。 [01:34.61]Once we found some office space and recruited staff, setting up our business was plain sailing.
一旦我们找到了办公用地，并且雇佣到员工，那我们就能顺利的开展我们的商业活动了。 [01:42.81]So plain sailing means things are going well.
所以“一帆风顺”是“一切进展顺利”的意思。 [01:46.76]I have to admit Rob, your sailing skills are very good and, oh watch out for that big wave.
我不得不承认，罗伯，你的驾船技术真实太棒了！喔！小心那个大海浪！！！ [01:57.23]Whoa, ouch. Oh oh, I've hit my head on the boom. Oh no, we're heading for the rocks again. Hold the rope Li, quick quick.
噢！！！噢噢噢！我的头撞到了船杆，我们的船要朝岩石驶去了，赶紧抓紧船绳，李，快，快。 [02:08.50]I've changed my mind Rob, this isn't plain sailing anymore.
我...我改变我的注意了罗伯，这可不是什么一次”一帆风顺“的航行。 [02:16.93]That's taken the wind out of your sails Rob.
这可完全灭了你的风头罗伯。 [02:20.55]Err, Li it's still windy. Look at the sails.
额...李，船帆上还有风在吹呢，不信你看看船帆。 [02:24.18]No Rob. That's another sailing idiom, to take the wind out of your sails is an expression that means your boasting and arrogance has been challenged.
不，罗伯，这是另一个有关航行的习语——这个表达的意思是你的自夸和傲慢遇到了挑战。 [02:36.69]Let's hear some other people using this expression.
我们来看其他人对这个表达的应用： [02:40.97]I was all ready for a big argument but when he bought me some flowers it took the wind out of my sails.
我已经准备好和他大吵一架了，但当他买了一些花给我之后，这挫败了我的锐气。 [02:49.16]The negative feedback from my boss has really taken the wind out of my sails.
从老板那里得到的负面反馈给了我当头一棒。 [02:55.52]Hmm, so Li you've certainly taught me a lot about sailing today. There are some really good expressions, but one thing you haven't taught me is how to sail this boat.
嗯，李，你今天教了我很有关航海的东西。有许多好的关于航行的谚语，但是你没有教我一件事，那就是如何驾驶这艘船。 [03:05.13]But you said you knew how to sail it.
但是你说过你知道怎么驾驶帆船的呀？ [03:08.15]Well when I said I had been sailing several times I had, but I meant on a ferry, as a passenger.
嗯，我说我有过几次航行经验，但我的意思是我作为乘客坐在帆船上航行的经验。 [03:15.10]Oh, watch out.
喔！小心！ [03:22.43]That was close. I've a feeling this really isn't going to be plain sailing after all.
好险啊。我有种感觉，这不会是场一帆风顺的航行。 [03:28.00]Too right. Bye bye.
太对了，再见。 [03:30.16]Bye. Now Li could you just hold that rope there.
再见。现在，李，请你抓住那边的船绳。
