內(nèi)容簡介
在英語中，人們用表達 “a bad hair day（頭發(fā)亂糟糟的一天）” 來比喻 “諸事不順或倒霉的一天”。主持人 Neil 好像就遇到了這種讓人心煩意亂的日子。來聽他和佳瑩的對話，學習這個口語表達的含義和用法。

大家好，歡迎收聽 BBC英語教學的 “地道英語” 節(jié)目，我是佳瑩。
Neil
And me, Neil.
Jiaying
怎么了，Neil？You don’t sound that happy.
Neil
I’m not. I went to bed late and this morning, I overslept. It’s all been a bit of a rush and I haven’t even had time for my morning coffee.
Jiaying
Oh, dear. Neil, I guess that explains it.
Neil
Explains what?
Jiaying
Why you’re such a mess – your clothes are scruffy, you’ve got food stuck to your beard and your hair!
Neil
What about my hair?
Jiaying
It’s not very… tidy.
Neil
Am I having a bad hair day?
Jiaying
I think you are! 表達 “a bad hair day” 用 “起床后頭發(fā)亂糟糟，怎么也打理不好” 的情況來比喻 “倒霉、不順心的一天”。Don’t worry, Neil. You’re not alone. Listen to these people…
Examples
Today’s a bad hair day for me – I feel a complete mess.
Oh, no! I’ve got an interview today, and it’s a bad hair day.
I’m having a bad hair day – I think I’ll go back to bed!

這里是 BBC英語教學的 “地道英語” 節(jié)目。大家可能遇到過在某一天，不論怎么打理，頭發(fā)都不聽話的情況。在口語中，表達 “a bad hair day” 就借此比喻 “諸事不順心，倒霉的一天”。Oh, Neil. I think you better go and tidy yourself up.
Neil
Really? But I’ll need your help.
Jiaying
Do you need a brush?
Neil
No, I need a cup of coffee!
Jiaying
OK. If that’ll help you to make your bad hair day become a good hair day.
Neil
It will. Thanks.
Jiaying
Bye.
Neil
Bye.
