書呆子BBC地道英語口語

　　Jo: This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Jo.

　　Jean: And I’m Jean.

　　Jo: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that you might not find in your English text book.

　　Jean: 學習英式英語非常重要的一部分就是要學習他們日常使用的英語口語，而且這些英語的`通俗說法并不是經常能在書本上學到的。那Jo，我們今天要學的英語口語詞是什么呢?

　　Jo: Today’s word is geek – G.E.E.K. – geek.

　　Jean: Geek. Geek是個什么東西呢?

　　Jo: A geek is a boring, unfashionable person. It’s a negative word.

　　Jean: OK知道了。Geek在英語口語里有點貶義詞的性質，就是用來形容那種比較執著鉆研學問、不太管別的事情書呆子氣的人。那一般英國人怎么用這個詞呢?

　　Jo: Well, you could say ‘her new boyfriend is a real geek’. You mean he’s boring, unfashionable, so you don’t approve or like him.

　　Jean: I see.

　　Insert

　　A : How’s your brother?

　　B: Fine, but he’s a geek. He dresses like my grandfather and just sits in front of the computer all day long.

　　Jo: My neighbour is a geek, Jean.

　　Jean: Really Jo?

　　Jo: Yes. His clothes are very out of fashion. He never does anything either.

　　Jean: So what does he do all day?

　　Jo: He just plays computer games all day long. I don’t think he realises what a geek he is.

　　Jo: Perhaps you should tell him?

　　Jo: Well I’m not sure about that! Anyway, let’s recap. Geek is a negative word for someone who is boring and unfashionable.

　　Jean: 好了讓我們再回顧一下今天學到的新詞吧。Geek就是指那種不愛和別人交往內向孤僻的人。Well, it looks like we don’t have any more time.

　　Jo: Yes, that’s it. You’ve been listening to Real English from BBC Learning English. Join us again soon for more up-to-the-minute Real English. Bye.

　　Jean: See you next time.
