(Galloping hooves)


Finn: Hello, I'm Finn and we're presenting this Authentic 1 Real English on horseback. I'm joined by…


(Horse whinny)


Finn: Sorry about that - by Feifei...


Feifei: Hello. 大家好!是的,我们骑在马背上,欣赏着威尔士美丽的山景。


Finn: Isn't it glorious?


Feifei: Beautiful. A million miles away from London.


(Horse whinny)


Finn: Eh, talking about London - you know our friend Mark, did you hear his news?


Feifei: No, what happened?


Finn: Great news for him. He sold his ice-cream delivery company.


Feifei: Wow!


Finn: And he made £500,000.


Feifei: Really? That's great news. Where did you hear that?


Finn: Straight from the horse's mouth.


(Horse whinny)


Feifei: Eh - from our horse? Our horse told you about Mark?


Finn: No, straight from the horse's mouth means...


Feifei: I know what it means, just kidding! Straight from the horse's mouth 的意思是指消息来自最直接、最可靠的来源。也就是说 Mark 本人呢告诉了 Finn 他卖了自己冰淇淋生意的消息。Right, Finn?


Finn: Absolutely. Listen to these examples:


A: Our university is going to start teaching courses in oceanography.


B: Really? How do you know that?


A: Straight from the horse's mouth – the head of the university told me.


A: Are you sure Michael is coming tomorrow? I haven't seen him for ages.


B: Yes, straight from the horse's mouth. He phoned me yesterday to tell me!


Feifei: Anyway, what's Mark going to do next?


Finn: Apparently 2 he's starting a new ice-cream business - with lots of crazy flavours.


Feifei: Like what?


Finn: Grass-flavoured ice-cream.


Feifei: Really?


Finn: Sure – I heard it straight from the...


Feifei: ...horse's mouth!


(Horse whinny)


Feifei: Well, I think our horse friend might enjoy grass-flavoured ice-cream 青草味冰激淋,我觉得肯定不会好吃。


Finn: Bye. Giddy up.
