我是Steve。最近过得如何，Helen? [00:07.45]Actually, I'm feeling very positive, thanks Steve.
现在，我过的非常棒，谢谢。 [00:10.71]Why? What's happened?
为啥？发生什么好事了？ [00:12.57]Well, I found out on Friday that I'm getting a promotion at BBC Learning English, then on Saturday I won ￡1,000 on the lottery.
嗯，我发现上星期五，我在BBC中英语得到了提升，后来在星期六我赢得了￡1000的彩票。 [00:21.58]Wow, that's brilliant.
哇，太棒了。 [00:23.14]Yes, and then on Sunday it got even better. I found out that some paintings I've done are going to be displayed at an art gallery in London.
是的，然后在星期日变得更棒了。我发现我画的一些画将在伦敦的一个美术馆展出。 [00:32.17]That's amazing, Helen, you're on a roll at the moment, aren't you.
太棒了，海伦，你现在运气真好! [00:35.69]Er, I'm on a what?
呃，什么？ [00:37.86]On a roll.
运气真好。 [00:39.29]Roll? I don't roll. I walk, or sometimes I run if I want some exercise. A football rolls if I kick it across the ground.
打滚？我并不打滚，我走路，有时我想要运动时，我会跑步。只有踢球的时候， 我脚下的足球才会滚来滚去吧。 [00:48.49]Sure, a football rolls, but you can be on a roll. It means you're experiencing lots of success or good luck at the moment.
没错，只有足球会滚来滚去，但也可以说成运气好。它的意思是你正在经历着许许多多的成功或好运。 [00:56.52]I see, the phrase 'on a roll' means you are having lots of good luck in your life. Let's listen to an example.
我懂了，‘on a roll’的是好事接踵而来，一帆风顺的意思。 [01:05.61]I hear your sister's getting married.
我听说你妹妹要结婚了。 [01:08.31]Yeah, she met this amazing guy while she was working in the theatre in London, and six months later they're engaged.
是啊，她在伦敦剧院上班时遇到了一个不错的人，过了六个月他们订婚了。 [01:16.44]And then, yesterday she was offered the lead part in the theatre's new play. She's really on a roll.
然后，她昨天担任了新剧中的主角。她运气可真好。 [01:23.94]So that woman is excited because her sister is on a roll, she met an amazing guy who she's now engaged to, and then she was offered the lead part in a play.
这位女士为她的妹妹高兴，因为她的妹妹最近的运气特别好， 首先她找到了她的白马王子，还订了婚，接下来她被选中当舞台剧的女主角。 [01:36.12]Yes, if you're on a roll it means lots of things are going well for you at the moment. Here’s another example.
是的，你可以把很多事情做好，如果你运气很棒的话。这是另一个例子。 [01:43.26]How are Arsenal doing in the Premier League these days?
这些天阿森纳队在英超比分怎样？ [01:45.80]Oh, they're totally on a roll. They've won all three games this month, including the one against Man United.
哦，他们现在一帆风顺。他们本月赢得了所有三场比赛，包括一场与曼联的比赛。 [01:52.17]So that man thinks his favourite football team are on a roll because they've won all their games?
这支球队这个月没输过一场球，运气可真好。 [01:58.49]Yes, they've won every game they've played this month, they're playing really well.

不会吧，他的自行车被偷了？怎么车钥匙也丢了呢! [02:21.10]Oh, dear, that's bad luck! Unlike you, he's definitely not on a roll.
哦，天哪，那真倒霉！不像你，他运气也太不好了。 [02:26.10]No, I'd better go and help him look for those keys. Bye.
唉，我最好去帮他找那些钥匙。拜拜。 [02:30.34]Bye.
