Rob 說(shuō)好要和幾位好友一同去看搖滾音樂(lè)會(huì),但其他人竟然忘了買(mǎi)票,難怪 Rob 看上去有些 “惱火 miffed”。本集節(jié)目講解 “miffed” 的地道用法。

大家好,歡迎來(lái)到 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的《地道英語(yǔ)》節(jié)目。我是馮菲菲。
Rob
And I’m Rob.
Feifei
你怎么看著悶悶不樂(lè)的?
Rob
I’m… I’m ok.
Feifei
I thought you were off to a rock concert for your birthday this weekend?
Rob
Yeah, I was. I love rock music.
Feifei
那這是怎么了?
Rob
Well, I booked my ticket a month ago. It wasn’t cheap. Three of my friends said they were coming too. But they just told me they forgot to book tickets, and now there are none left.?
Feifei
Oh, what a pain. I’m sorry.?
Rob
Yeah, I’m a bit miffed.
Feifei
I’m not surprised. Err, Rob, sorry to mention this while you’re feeling upset…
Rob
Yes…?
Feifei
Do you mind if I use ‘miffed’ as our word today?
Rob
Yeah, OK then.?
Feifei
我來(lái)給大家講講形容詞 “miffed” 的用法。這個(gè)詞可以形容我們因他人的行為而感到生氣、惱火。Rob 現(xiàn)在正因?yàn)樗呐笥褌兺擞喨タ囱莩獣?huì)的票而很是惱火。Let’s just give Rob a minute, while we listen to these examples.
Examples? ? ?
You know what? I’ve been working really late all week to finish this proposal, but my boss hasn’t said a word of thanks. Yeah, you could say I’m pretty miffed.
Laura met this guy on holiday. She told me he was really special, and that they seemed serious about each other. But he hasn’t called in weeks. She’s really miffed about it.
You’d think that when you order a vegetarian pizza, it would come without meat. No wonder Martin was miffed when it arrived with ham on it!

這里是 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的《地道英語(yǔ)》。本集節(jié)目里教給大家的表達(dá)是 “miffed”,它用來(lái)形容人生氣、惱火。So, feeling any better yet, Rob?
Rob
Well, I just got a message. Get this: apparently my friends were joking.
Feifei
我知道他們是在和你開(kāi)玩笑。
Rob
What?
Feifei
是我讓他們這么說(shuō)的,這樣我們就能借機(jī)給大家說(shuō)說(shuō) “miffed” 這個(gè)詞。
Rob
Seriously?
Feifei
Yeah, you don’t mind, do you?
Rob
Of course I mind. You made me feel, well… miffed!
Feifei
Sorry about that.
Rob
And I’m miffed with you now!
Feifei
Rob, you know what?
Rob
What??
Feifei
I got a ticket too. It is your birthday after all, I wouldn’t miss it!
Rob
Really? OK, all is forgiven!
Feifei
Bye.?
Rob
Byebye.
