發布日期：2011-08-11

核心提示：歡迎收聽BBC地道英語，今天我們學習一個詞組on a roll--好事接踵而來、一帆風順。

Steve: And I'm Steve. How are you, Helen?

Helen: Actually, I'm feeling very positive, thanks Steve.

Steve: Why? What's happened?

Helen: Well, I found out on Friday that I'm getting a promotion 提升 at BBC Learning English. Then on Saturday, I won £1,000 on the lottery.

Steve: Wow, that's brilliant!

Helen: 是啊，我星期六贏了1000鎊的彩票。不過這還不算什么，on Sunday, it got even better. 我收到通知說我畫的畫被倫敦藝術畫廊選中，過幾個星期你就能在藝術展會上看到我的作品了。 I'm so happy！這么多的好事我都碰上了！

Steve: That's amazing, Helen – you're on a roll at the moment, aren't you!

Helen: I'm on a what?

Steve: On a roll...

Colin Firth is on a roll this year, winning lots of awards for acting
Helen: Roll? 打滾？我怎么可能打滾呢？I walk, or sometimes I run if I want some exercise. 只有踢球的時候，我腳下的足球才會滾來滾去吧。

Steve: Sure, a football rolls, but you can be on a roll. It means you're experiencing lots of success or good luck at the moment.

Helen: I see, 這個短語 on a roll, 是好事接踵而來，一帆風順的意思。 Let's listen to an example.

Example

Man: I hear your sister's getting married.

Woman: Yeah, she met this amazing guy while she was working in the theatre in London, and six months later they're engaged! And then, yesterday she was offered the lead part in the theatre's new play. She's really on a roll!

Helen: 這位女士為她的妹妹高興，因為她的妹妹最近的運氣特別好 she's on a roll. 首先她找到了她的白馬王子 an amazing guy, 還訂了婚。接下來她被選中當舞臺劇的女主角。She was offered the lead part in a play.

Steve: Yes, if you're on a roll it means lots of things are going well for you at the moment. Here's another example.

Example

Man 1: How are Arsenal doing in the Premier League these days?

Man 2: Oh, they're totally on a roll! They've won all three games this month, including the one against Man United!

Helen: So that man thinks his favourite football team are on a roll because they've won all their games. 這支球隊這個月沒輸過一場球，運氣可真好。

Steve: Yes, they've won every game they've played this month – they're playing really well.

Text message sound

Helen: Oh, wait a minute. I've got a text message from my husband.

Steve: What's he saying – have you won the lottery again? Are you still on a roll?

Sound effect of car braking suddenly

Helen: No... actually, he's just had his bike stolen 不會吧，他的自行車被偷了？ and earlier, he lost his car keys 怎么車鑰匙也丟了呢!

Steve: Oh dear, that's bad luck! Unlike you, he's definitely not on a roll.

Helen: No... I'd better go and help him look for those keys. Bye!

Steve: Bye!
