Jo: Hello and welcome to Real English from BBC Learning English – I'm Jo.


Li: Hi 大家好。我是杨莉, 欢迎收听 BBC 的地道英语节目,希望在接下来的2分钟里,你能学到英式英语中常用的一些表达方式。


Jo: What are you reading there Li?


Li: Oh it's just this week's celebrity 1 gossip 2 magazine. 我有空的时候就喜欢看娱乐新闻的杂志,里面有好多明星的小道消息。Look have you seen this picture of George Clooney at the film festival?


Jo: Ooo yes, he's really fit isn't he?


Li: Fit? Well, I don't know if he likes sports or not Jo.


Jo: No I don't mean fit as in healthy or sporty.


Li: 是吗?难道这里 fit 不是健康,身体好的意思吗?


Jo: Well it does but in informal English it means good looking. So if you think a man is really handsome then you can say – he's really fit!


Jo: Wow that’s something new. 你是说他看起来很帅,那 fit 这个词能用在漂亮的女孩身上吗?


Jo: Yes you can. You might hear a man say – look at her – she's really fit. And you often hear people say – he or she is well fit. 'Well' means very in informal English.


Li: Well 是 very 的口语表达,那么 he's well fit 就是 he is very good looking 他长得可真帅,真有型。那Jo, 我们是不是经常在非常随便的情况下才能听到这个词的使用呢?


Jo: Yes that's right. Lots of young people use this word when they're talking to their friend about who they like and don't like. Here's some more examples.


Examples


A: Look, it's Justin Timberlake on the TV. I love him – he's really fit.


B: Do you think so? He's not really my type!


A: There's a new girl started working in my office and she's well fit. I'm finding it hard to concentrate on my work!


B: What's she like?


A: She's got long brown hair and a lovely smile. She's gorgeous 3!


Jo: So do you think George Clooney's fit Li?


Li: He's OK – but I prefer Johnny Depp – he's extremely fit! 好了,今天的地道英 语又要结束了。


Jo: You've been listening to Real English from BBC Learning English. We'll see you again soon.


Li: Bye Bye.
