全网最酷美语怎么说:第39期 这不是废话吗

 　　Nick: Hi everybody, this is Nick. Welcome to teaching¹ series "how do you say this in American English."

　　Nick: 大家好，我是Nick.

　　Brad:大家好，我是Brad

　　Nick:今天我们来学习两组很容易被搞错的，却又很常用的词。一个是废话，一个叫胡说八道。这节课我们先来学习，废话怎么说。废话就是指你说的东西大家都知道，不需要浪费时间单独阐述。比如1+1=2，大家都知道的事实。

　　Nick: Brad, why are you sweating so bad?

　　Brad: Oh my god that Sichuan beef noodle I just had was so hot. I've eaten Chinese food for long time but I've never had anything that hot! I can't stop drinking water! Why was that so hot?!

　　Nick: I just can't believe it. Wait, you ordered Sichuan noodle, why? I though you didn't like spicy² food.

　　Brad: I don't mind spicy food for sure. I eat hot wings just about every other other day. But I didn't know that was that spicy!

　　Nick: That's funny. Have you heard of Sichuan province?

　　Brad: Yeah the place with a lot of pandas or something?

　　Nick: Well, that is true. Sichuan has a lot of pandas. But I meant food.

　　Brad: Oh no I have no idea about the food there. What? The food is spicy or what?

　　Nick: Duh! Dude, Sichuan food is famous for the spicy flavor³. You really don't know?

　　Brad: I really don't know, I really have no idea but I keep that in mind.

　　Nick: Yeah you should. Good luck then.那我们刚刚说，duh就是说一个废话的意思，大家都知道四川food非常辣。Duh注意要拖一下语调，有一定的语气。So this is pretty much it for this time, I'll see you guys next time, bye.

　　Brad:再见
