There's method to my madness 我有一个不合常理的办法
Play audio file 内容简介 Rob 一进到录音室被眼前的情景迷惑了:Li 把她背包里的东西都摊在了地上,她这是在干什么?Li 的回答是 'There's method to my madness' 你知道这是什么意思吗?
(关于台词的备注: 请注意这不是广播节目的逐字稿件。本文稿可能没有体现录制、编辑过程中对节目做出的改变。)
Li
Hi everyone. 大家好我是杨莉,欢迎收听《》。趁着 Rob还没到我要赶紧找找我的交通卡。I couldn't find my Travelcard this morning. I hope I haven't lost it.
(Sound of Li emptying her handbag... Then the door opens and Rob enters the room)
Rob
Hi Li, sorry I'm late. (Rob looks at Li) Li, what are you doing? You've emptied your handbag all over the floor!
Li
Oh, hi Rob, I wasn't expecting you to be here so soon. 不好意思啊,我的东西摊了满地。Oh dear, this must look terrible, but believe me, there's method to my madness.
Rob
You've made a mess all over the floor and you're telling me you've gone mad!
Li
没有没有,我可没有疯。No, I haven't gone mad, well, I hope not! 我刚才使用了一个地道的英语表达。The phrase 'there's method to my madness' 意思是,虽然我的行为看上去难以理喻,但我这样做是有原因的。I'm surprised that you didn't know this phrase!
Rob
I'm only joking. Of course I know this phrase. 'There's method to my madness' or you could say 'there's method in my madness', means you are doing something that looks strange but you have a plan and really, you are doing something very sensible.
Li
Yes, that's exactly right. 你解释得很好。讲话者的意思是,“我有一个不合乎常理,但实际上很聪明的办法”。As you can see, I've emptied my handbag over the floor because it'll be easier and quicker to find my Travelcard. Then I'll re-pack my handbag.
Rob
That's good to hear. Well, this is the phrase for Authentic Real English today. Let's hear some examples of how it is used.
Examples
I'm driving to my friend's house today but I'm going to take the long route, avoiding the motorway. There's method to my madness, I think the motorway will be very busy and the longer route will be quicker.
A: What are you doing putting all the books on the floor?
B: There's method to my madness, I'm taking a photo of the books I'm putting away. The photos will help me locate the books more easily.
A: Oh, that's clever.
Rob
So Li, have you found your Travelcard?
Li
Yes! 找到啦!一定是被压在了包的最底下了。You see, there was method to my madness.
Rob
Well done Li. Well, I'm going now. I'll leave you to tidy up your mess!
Li
Thanks Rob.
Rob
Bye everyone!
Li
Bye!
