字號(hào):

Yang Li: Hello, welcome to Authentic Real English from BBC Learning English. 我是楊莉,大家好。
    Tracy: And I'm Tracy.
    Yang Li: Tracy, I heard you are going to do a bungee jump. 是真的嗎?你難道真的是要去跳蹦極跳 bungee jump?
    Tracy: Yes I am. I mean, why not? I think it will be fun.
    Yang Li: You are bonkers. 你怎么會(huì)想到去玩這么危險(xiǎn)的游戲呢?
    2013英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)8000句:Bonkers 發(fā)瘋的
    Tracy: I'm raising money for charity.
    Yang Li: Oh, I see. 你是為了給慈善機(jī)構(gòu)捐款。
    Tracy: We're looking for more people, Li. Would you like to join me?
    Yang Li: I couldn't. I think you have to be bonkers to do a bungee jump.
    Tracy: Let's explain what bonkers B.O.N.K.E.R.S. means:
    Yang Li: It means that you are crazy or mad. It means that you have lost your mind. Crazy 瘋狂的,mad 也是發(fā)瘋的意思,還有l(wèi)ost your mind 失去理智。
    Tracy: Yes, those are some good synonyms. You could say that you think I am crazy for wanting to do a bungee jump.
    Yang Li: 我也可以說(shuō),I think you have lost your mind.
    Tracy: Yes, or you could say that you think I am bonkers.
    Yang Li: You are bonkers. Why are these people being called bonkers?
    Examples
    A: I think I need more exercise so I'm going to walk to work tomorrow.
    B: You're bonkers. You live over seven miles away from the office.
    A: I have a meeting with the boss tomorrow and I'm going to ask for a promotion.
    B: Really, you're bonkers. He'll never agree to that.
    Tracy: Some of those people did sound as if they were a little bonkers. Don't you think?
    Yang Li: 是的,聽(tīng)上去他們也是夠 bonkers, 不過(guò)瘋狂程度還是不如你。說(shuō)來(lái)說(shuō)去我還是不敢相信你真的是要去玩蹦極跳。
    Tracy: Well you had better believe it.
    Yang Li: Ok, I think we had better finish here before Tracy decides to do any other bonkers activities.
