你已经会说英语了，但你的表达是否符合你期望的样子？

You already speak English, but does it sound the way you want it to?

你能听懂对话，但在该开口时却犹豫不决吗？

Do you understand conversations but hesitate when it's time to jump in?

你知道该说什么，但话语就是说不出口吗？

Do you know what to say but the words don't come out naturally?

快速的对话是否仍让你感到有点没把握？

Do fast conversations still make you feel a little unsure of yourself?

如果这些情况你感同身受，那你可能卡住了。

If that sounds familiar, you may be stuck.

How's it going?

嘿。

Hey.

还不错，奥布里。

It's going pretty well, Aubrey.

我正在为周末做准备。

I'm getting ready for the weekend.

一切都很好。

你呢？

What about you?

情况怎么样？你觉得这个周末有什么事情会让你感到特别震撼吗？

How are things Do you think there's anything this weekend that you're going to that's just gonna blow you away?

哦，我不这么认为。

Oh, I don't think so.

我不确定这个周末有什么安排。

I'm not sure what's on tap for this weekend.

没什么大事。

Nothing major.

我真的很想再看一遍《新岳父大人》这部电影。

I really wanna watch the movie Father of the Bride again.

我刚和我爸爸聊过，这是一部重看的电影，所以可能不会让我感到特别震撼。

I was talking to my father, like, it's a rewatch, so it might not blow me away.

这是一部很棒的电影，很不错。

That's a great movie, but it's good one.

是的。

Yeah.

今天我们节目要聊什么？

What are we talking about on the show today?

许多带有below的动词和短语动词都有多种含义。

Many of the verbs and phrasal verbs with below have multiple meanings.

我们讨论了吹干以及其他几个过去式特别棘手的词。

We talk about blow dried and a few others that were especially tricky in past tense.

是的。

Yes.

今天，我们将再讲解三个这样的词，每个词都有几种不同的含义。

And today, we're going to cover three more of these, each of which has a few different meanings.

太棒了。

Amazing.

这一定是英语中最常见的基本动词之一。

This must be one of the most common base verbs in the English language.

是的，看起来确实如此，对吧？

Yeah, it seems that way, right?

有这么多不同的含义，还有三个在第三部分。

Awesome.

好的。

Alright.

让我们开始这些有趣的短语动词吧。

Let's dive in with these fun phrasal verbs.

是的。

Yes.

第一个是 blow over，意思是悄然过去，不会造成严重后果。

So the first one is blow over, which means to pass without serious consequences.

我们经常用这个词来形容风暴。

We'll often say this about a storm.

风暴过去了。

The storm blew over.

我觉得 'the storm's going to blow over' 意思是它会从我们身边过去，不会变得特别剧烈或糟糕。

I think the storm's going to blow over means it's going to pass us without being, like, extreme or terrible.

是的。

Yeah.

所以这是这个短语在物理或字面意义上的用法。

So that's kind of the physical the literal use of that phrase.

但我们也用它来形容那些我们希望会过去的状况。

But then we also use it for situations that you hope will pass.

别担心。

Like, don't worry.

这场争论很快就会过去。

The argument will blow over soon.

对吧？

Right?

没错。

Exactly.

就像我们会挺过去，而且你希望它不会先爆发。

Like, it's going we're gonna get past it, and you're thinking it's not going to explode first.

就像它会平息下来。

Like, it's gonna blow over.

对吧？

Right?

这场争议几天后就平息了。

Or the controversy blew over after a few days.

嗯。

Mhmm.

另一种说法是，它逐渐平息了。

Kind of petered out is another way we'll say that.

就像它会变得不那么严重，然后我们就过去了。

Like, it's going to become less serious where we'll be past it.

是的。

Yeah.

我觉得现在每天都有一起丑闻。

I feel like these days, there's always a scandal.

简直每周都有新的丑闻和新的新闻。

It's like every week, there's a new scandal and then a new news story.

而且通常，很多丑闻几天后就不了了之了，因为二十四小时新闻循环嘛，对吧。

And usually, many of them just kinda blow over after a few days because the news cycle, the twenty four hour news cycle Right.

又有别的事情发生了。

Something else comes up.

对。

Exactly.

我知道。

I know.

明白了。

Gotcha.

CNN的循环播放。

The CNN loop.

对吧？

Right?

所以消散，真的很常见，一吹就散。

So blow over, really common blow away.

这就是你一开始问我的那个。

And this is the one you asked me at the beginning.

对吧？

Right?

对某事感到印象深刻。

To be impressed by something.

对吧？

Right?

比如她的表演让我惊叹不已。

Like her performance blew me away.

也许你去看了一场令人印象深刻的歌剧、百老汇演出，或者像《女巫前传》这样的优秀电影。

Maybe you go to an impressive opera, Broadway show, something like that, a a great film, say, like Wicked.

《女巫前传》中的表演让我大为震撼。

I was blown away by the performances in Wicked.

但当然，它还有另外两个含义。

But then, of course, has two other meanings.

是的。

Yeah.

字面意思。

Literal meanings.

我的意思是，你是在爱达荷州长大的。

I mean, you grew up in Idaho.

爱达荷州的风真的很强。

There's some really strong wind in Idaho.

对吧，奥布里？

Right, Aubrey?

你有没有经历过，比如，纸张被吹走或者东西被吹走的情况？

Have you ever been, like, as did you ever have, like, papers blown away or items?

被风 physically 吹走。

Physically blown away by the wind.

我住在爱达荷州，那里的风特别大，尤其是冬天，你一出门就会感觉像在用力推着走。

The wind is so strong where I live in Idaho, especially in the winter that you'd step outside and be like physically pushing.

但我们还是会说，是的，纸张被风吹走了。

And yet we're like, yeah, the papers were blown away by the wind.

这非常常见。

This is very common.

风简直把所有东西都掀翻了。

The wind's just throwing everything over.

在我住的地方，你根本没法安排任何户外活动。

You can't ever schedule anything for outside where I live.

太疯狂了。

That's wild.

天哪。

Oh my gosh.

科罗拉多州的一些地方风也特别大。

And parts of Colorado get really windy too.

前几天晚上我看新闻时看到过。

I was seeing something in the news the other night.

有一个小镇，我觉得是在科罗拉多州西南部，风速达到了每小时100英里。

One town, I think in Southwestern Colorado, got up to a 100 mile an hour winds.

太疯狂了。

It was crazy.

这真是太不可思议了。

That is so crazy.

就像，你可以的，是的。

Like, you can Yeah.

当风速达到每小时100英里时，根本没法站在外面，牛都会被吹飞。

Can't really even stand up outside when it's a 100 mile an The cows fly away.

我的意思是，这太疯狂了。

I mean, it's crazy.

就像龙卷风一样的风。

It's like tornado winds.

天哪。

Oh, man.

如果我们考虑竞争和你们之间的较量，这种情况如何影响失败呢？

Then if we think about competitiveness and y'all competing, how does this play into being defeated?

对。

Yes.

‘彻底击败’也意味着轻松地、大幅度地战胜对方。

A blowaway also means to defeat easily or like soundly by a lot.

所以你可以说我们在决赛中彻底击败了他们。

So you could say our team blew them away in the finals.

也许比分是60比0。

Maybe the score was like 60 to zero.

这时候你就会说我们彻底击败了他们。

That's when you'll say we blew them away.

是的。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

这明显是一场胜利。

That's clearly a win.

而且还有其他说法，我的意思是，我们可以专门做一期《All Ears English》节目，讲讲怎么表达你彻底碾压了对方。

And there are other I mean, we could do a whole other episode on All Ears English about how to say you really crush someone.

对吧？

Right?

是的。

Yeah.

有好多方式可以表达这一点。

There are lot of ways to say that.

你需要掌握所有这些词汇，比如体育新闻标题里用的。

You need all of the words for, like, the sports headlines.

是的。

Yeah.

他们需要很多种方式来表达这一点。

They need lots of ways to say that.

清理干净。

Clean up.

对吧？

Right?

有很多

There's a lot

我们可以说的还有很多。

of things we could say.

所以这事改天再说吧，各位。

So that'll come another day, guys.

别忘了关注这个节目。

Make sure you're following the show.

但今天，我们要讲第三个与 blow 搭配的短语动词：blow off。

But for today, our third phrasal verb with blow is blow off.

这是什么意思呢，奥布里？

What does this mean, Aubrey?

首先，意思是忽视或跳过某事。

So first, to ignore or skip something.

比如，他说‘他没去开会去打高尔夫了’，意思就是他干脆就不去了。

You know, he blew off the meeting to go golfing would mean he just decided not to go.

而且不是因为生病了没办法去，而是故意不去。

And not because he was sick and couldn't go, like to intentionally not go.

你放任不管

You blow

它。

it off.

它从来不是因为你没法去的时候。

It's never it's never when you can't go.

而是当你不想去的时候，对吧？

It's when you don't want to go, right?

不是像你所说的，不是因为你生病了或者身体上无法去上班之类的情况。

It's not like you like you said, not when you're sick or physically can't go into work or something.

对吧？

Right?

没错。

Exactly.

嚼着饼干。

Chewsing cookie.

你在玩饼干。

You're playing cookie.

没错。

Exactly.

就像《早餐俱乐部》里的费里斯·布勒一天假。

Like, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

对吧？

Right?

没错。

Right.

他旷课了。

He blew off school.

没错。

Exactly.

是的。

Yeah.

是的。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

我们还可以说是释放能量或压力。

And then we could also say release energy or stress.

我的意思是，我喜欢跑步来释放压力。

I mean, to I like to run to blow off steam.

奥布里，你平时喜欢做什么来释放压力？

Aubrey, what do you like to do to blow off steam?

如果你想减压的话

If you wanna release stress

去跑步释放

to run to blow off

压力。

steam.

有时候我会

Sometimes I'll

骑自行车减压，或者去散步、运动。

do a bike ride to blow off steam or just go for a walk, play sports.

但是是的。

But Yeah.

跑步。

Running.

我一直想开始跑步。

I've always wanted to get into running.

我知道跑步对身体很好，但我就是真的很讨厌跑步。

I know how good it is for you, but I just really hate it.

是的。

Yeah.

这对身体有好处。

It's good for you.

但我的朋友们，那些四五十岁跑马拉松的，现在都膝盖不好，纷纷做手术了。

But then all my friends who are, like, marathon runners in their forties and fifties, they all have bad knees and are, like, having surgery now.

所以，稍微跑一点对你有好处，但别跑太多。

So, like, a little running is good for you, but not too much.

别跑太多。

Not too much.

对吧？

Right?

我们不想要跑步带来的膝盖问题。

We we don't want the knee issues that come with it.

确实如此。

It's true.

确实如此。

It's true.

好的。

Okay.

所以，奥布里，我们先休息一下，然后回来进行角色扮演。

So, Aubrey, we're gonna take a quick break, and then we'll come back and do a role play.

好吗？

Alright?

好的。

Yes.

好的。

Okay.

现在我们开始今天的角色扮演。

Here we are for our role play for today.

奥布里，我们是坐在户外露台喝咖啡的朋友。

Aubrey, we're friends having a coffee on an outdoor patio.

听起来真棒。

Sounds wonderful.

确实如此。

It does

听起来很棒。

sound wonderful.

只是可能有点风，所以我可能需要拿一个。

Except it might be a little windy so that I could use one of Yeah.

好的。

Alright.

我来开头吧。

I'll start us out.

哦，昨天一团糟。

Oh, yesterday was a mess.

我和我的经理吵了一架。

I got into an argument with my manager.

哦，是吗。

Oh, yeah.

我听说了，说实话。

I heard, honestly.

我觉得一两天后就会过去了。

I think it'll blow over in a day or two.

这种事情通常都会这样。

Stuff like that usually does.

我希望如此。

I hope so.

我不希望它演变成一件大事。

I don't want it turning into a big thing.

哇哦。

Woah.

这阵风差点把你的文件吹跑了。

That gust of wind almost blew your papers away.

我们进去吧？

Should we move inside?

不用。

No.

外面真舒服。

It's so nice out here.

我把它放包里。

I'll put them in my bag.

对了，你昨晚看比赛了吗？

By the way, did you watch the game last night?

看了。

Yes.

我们队完胜他们。

Our team blew them away.

根本没悬念。

It wasn't even close.

没错。

Totally.

还有那个最终进球，我简直惊呆了。

And that final goal, I was absolutely blown away.

我根本没料到会这样。

I did not see it coming.

哦，等等。

Oh, wait.

我刚想起来。

I just realized.

你今天早上不是有个会议吗？

Didn't you have a meeting this morning?

是的。

Yeah.

我干脆没去参加。

I kinda blew it off.

我需要休息一下。

I needed a break.

说实话，我理解。

Honestly, I get it.

经历了这样的一周后，有时候你就是需要发泄一下。

After a week like that, sometimes you just need to blow off steam.

没错。

Exactly.

我去跑了很长一段路，之后感觉好多了。

I went for a long run and felt way better afterward.

这就是你知道这角色扮演中不是我的原因。

This is how you know it's not me in this role play.

不。

No.

是的。

Yeah.

对。

Yeah.

你大概不会这么做。

You probably wouldn't do that.

确实如此。

It's true.

我喜欢这个情景。

I love the scenario.

你有没有遇到过这样的情况：快到早春了，你希望天气足够暖和能坐在外面，但实际上却并不够暖和？

Do you ever get in a scenario where it's, like, early spring and you're just hoping it's nice enough to sit outside, but it's really not?

也许在亚利桑那，天气总是刚刚好。

Maybe in Arizona, it's just nice enough all the time.

但在新英格兰，确实有些日子你会坐在露台上，结果还是太热了。

But in New England, there are definitely days where you'll sit on the patio and then it's still too hot.

阳光真是……

The sun is Oh.

有时候又有点冷，如果他们没有那种露台加热器的话。

Or sometimes it's a little chilly and if they don't have, like, patio heaters.

嗯。

Mhmm.

所以有时候看起来天气刚好合适，但实际上又有点太冷或有点太热。

So sometimes it seems like it would be nice enough, and then it's just a little too cold or a little too hot.

是的。

Yeah.

这绝对是新英格兰生活的典型特征。

That was definitely a hallmark of life in New England.

我们会在四月或五月试着出去坐在外面，那时天气晴朗。

We would try to go out and sit outside in April or May, and then it'd be sunny.

我们会想，这太棒了。

We'd be like, this will be great.

这是我们今年第一次在外面吃饭，但接着风就来了，寒冷也跟着来了。

We can eat outside first time of the year, and then the wind starts, and then the cold starts.

然后我们彼此对视一眼。

And then we sort of make eye contact.

我们心想，哦，我们还在自欺欺人。

We're like, oh, we're still lying to ourselves.

这并不算多好，但我们只能咬牙坚持。

It's not that great, but we're gonna grit our teeth.

确实如此。

True.

我们在炎热天气下也常常这样。

That's the same with often with us at the heat.

这里的咖啡馆或任何餐厅的露台上都会装有喷雾器，用来喷水降温。

The cafes here will have our any restaurant has misters on the patio, so they're, like, misting water to make it cooler.

但常常你会发现，天气太热了。

But then often you'll see it's too hot.

露台上没人，喷雾器却还在运行。

Nobody's on the patio, but the misters are going.

我想，这真是浪费水啊。

I'm like, what a waste of water.

他们一直在喷这么多水

Like, they're shooting all this

水都浪费了。

water out.

没人坐在外面。

No one's sitting out there.

哇。

Wow.

是的。

Yeah.

我们在科罗拉多州很少有这种装置。

We don't really have those as much in Colorado.

这很有趣。

That's interesting.

亚利桑那州的气候真的非常炎热。

So it's really, really hot climate in Arizona.

是的。

Yeah.

哇。

Wow.

疯狂。

Crazy.

我们来仔细看看这个。

Let's go through this.

我们在这里用掉了所有的。

We used all of them here.

你一开始觉得，我觉得这会过去的。

You first started with, I think it'll blow over.

我在说我和别人的一次争执，而你是在安慰我，认为这不会是个大问题。

I'm talking about an argument I had, and you're kind of helping reassure me that you don't think it's going to be a big problem.

就像是的。

Like Yeah.

过几天大家都会过去的。

Everyone's gonna get past it in a couple days.

没错。

Exactly.

挺过去。

Get past it.

这件事会过去的。

It's gonna move on.

我们会忘记它的。

We're gonna forget about it.

我们会向前看的。

We're gonna move on.

它会过去的。

It's gonna pass.

对吧？

Right?

没错。

Exactly.

然后我说，哇。

And then I said, woah.

那阵风差点把你的纸张吹走。

That gust of wind almost blew your papers away.

所以你的纸张几乎真的，你知道的，飞了起来

So your papers almost physically, you know, launched into

从桌子上飞出去。

the off the table.

没错。

Exactly.

嗯哼。

Mhmm.

所以我就想，干脆把它们放进我的包里吧。

So then I'm like, I'll just put them in my bag here.

然后我们就聊起了体育。

And then we start talking about sports.

你说我们的队伍完胜了他们。

You're saying saying our team blew them away.

这意味着比分差距很大。

That means the score was not close.

我们以压倒性优势赢了。

We won by a landslide.

是的。

Yep.

没错。

Exactly.

然后你说完全如此。

And then you said totally.

那个最终进球，我简直惊呆了。

And that final goal, I was absolutely blown away.

所以你感到很震惊。

So you were shocked.
