大家好,欢迎收听 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目,我是佳莹。

Neil
… and hello, I’m Neil.

Jiaying
Hey, Neil, have you heard what Roy has planned for our Christmas party this year?

Neil
Oh, no, not axe throwing again?

Jiaying
Maybe not. We did it last year. This year we’re doing karaoke at our Christmas party. Roy is already practising singing some songs by Ariana Grande!

Neil
I do not like the sound of that!

Jiaying
怎么了?你不喜欢 Roy 的歌声吗?

Neil
No! I mean, I don’t like the idea of doing karaoke. When you ‘don’t like the sound of something’, it means you don’t like something you have been told or read about.

Jiaying
I’ve got it. Well, hopefully, Neil, you’ll like the sound of these examples!

Examples
We’ve been told to start work an hour earlier – I do not like the sound of that.

I don’t like the sound of that new shopping centre – it’s going to increase the amount of traffic around here.

I didn’t like the sound of Enrique’s camping trip – it involved walking ten kilometres with our tents!

你正在收听的是 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。我们正在讨论表达 “not like the sound of something”,意思是 “不喜欢听到或者看到的消息”;相反,可以用 “like the sound of something” 来表示 “喜欢听到或看到的消息,对这件事情感兴趣”。Neil,你为什么不想唱卡拉OK 呢?

Neil
I can’t sing!

Jiaying
Don’t be boring – it could be fun! Maybe you could do a duet with Roy?

Neil
I definitely don’t like the sound of that!

Jiaying
Hmm, it’s impossible to please everyone at the Christmas party. Maybe we should just have a meal together and talk to each other?

Neil
Now, I do like the sound of that. Right, I’m off…

Jiaying
Where are you going?

Neil
To book that table at the restaurant. Bye.

Jiaying
Bye, Neil.
