Jean: 在我們的Real English地道英語(yǔ)節(jié)目當(dāng)中，我們會(huì)來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)一些近代英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言當(dāng)中出現(xiàn)的.新詞匯和新用法。
John: It’s very important to stay up-to-date with English as new words and expressions enter the language all the time.
Jean: 那好，John, 我們今天要學(xué)的新詞是什么呢?
John: Today’s new expression is ‘top of the range’. That’s four words – top.of.the and range, R.A.N.G.E
Jean: Top of the range. 能給我們解釋一下它的意思嗎?
John: Well, it’s not too difficult. Top of the range means the most expensive or best of a group of similar products.
Jean: 我知道了。Top of the range 就是說(shuō)在同類事物中算是最好最先進(jìn)或者最昂貴的一種或是一款，對(duì)不對(duì)John?
John: It’s common with cars. You might say ‘my father drives a top of the range BMW’.
Jean: I see. 那我們只能拿它形容車嗎?
John: No. any product that involves technology will have a top of the range model. There will be cheaper types, then the best and most expensive.
