Helen: Hello, this is Real English from BBC Learning 1 English, I’m Helen.
Zo?: Hi, 你好吗？我是刘佳。欢迎收听地道英语。
Helen: In Real English, we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your dictionary.
Zo?: So what is today’s new phrase, Helen?
Helen: Today we’re going to look at the verb to top up.
Zo?: Top up?
Helen: That’s right. Top - T.O.P. Up – U.P. Top up.
Zo?: Top up 说的是什么呢, Helen?
Helen: Generally speaking to top up means to refill a container until it is full again.
Zo?: Right. 一般来说，top up 是个动词，表示把一个容器填满，就是续杯的意思。
Helen: Exactly. But in recent years to top up has come to mean putting more credit 2 into a mobile 3 phone account or a public travel card.
Zo?: 现在这个词又扩大了应用的范围，比如给手机充值，或者给公共交通卡充值，等等。
Helen: You’ve got it.
Insert
A: My mobile phone is out of credit.
B: Here, use mine. I topped up my phone this morning.
A: Thanks.
Zo?: 如果我给我的手机充值，就是我往我的手机帐户里续存了钱。对吗？
Helen: That’s correct.
Zo?: Where can I top up my phone in the UK, Helen?
Helen: Topping up your mobile phone is very easy in the UK. You can buy a top-up card in most newsagents or supermarkets.
Zo?: 这么简单，我只要去超市或者路边的报亭商店就可以买到充值卡了吗？
Helen: It’s that easy. Or you can top up your mobile phone on the internet – just go to the website and buy credit for your phone with your credit card.
Zo?: 好啦，让我们来复习一下。To top up 就是给手机或者公共交通卡充值。
Helen: Well I’m afraid we are out of time again. So don’t forget to join us next time on BBC Learning English.
Zo?: Bye for now.
