时间：2019-02-05 作者：英语课 分类：地道美语播客
Simone: They’re about to introduce you. You’re on next. Are you ready?
Gabriel: No...yes...no!
Simone: You don’t look so well. Are you all right?
Gabriel: I don’t know. My palms are clammy, I’m breaking out into a cold sweat, and my legs feel like jelly 1.
Simone: It sounds like a bad case of stage fright, that’s all. Just take a deep breath. You’ll be fine.
Gabriel: I have butterflies in my stomach and my mouth is dry. Where can I get a glass of water?
Simone: I don’t know and there isn’t time.
Gabriel: Oh God, if I go out there, I’m going to freeze up or get tongue-tied. I just know it.
Simone: Get a hold of yourself. You’re well prepared and you’ll do a great job. Okay, they’ve just announced your name. Get out there!
Gabriel: I can’t!
Simone: The entire audience is waiting for you. Pull yourself together and get out there!
Gabriel: Here goes nothing!
Script 2 by Dr. Lucy Tse
- We had toast and jelly at breakfast.我们早餐吃的是烤面包和果冻。
- The medicine was a clear jelly.这种药是透明的胶状物。
