地道英语：大好人

　　Legend

　　Feifei: Hello and welcome to the Authentic Real English. Were in Finns kitchen, and hes hard at work.

　　Finn: Hello.

　　Feifei: Finn. What are you doing?

　　Finn: (Sawing sounds) Just sawing this table.

　　Feifei: Sawing the table? Why?

　　Finn: To make it round; a nice round shape.

　　Feifei: OK? Not quite sure why?

　　Finn: So I can have a round table. Like King Arthur...

　　Feifei: 你是说像亚瑟王一样?英国传说 the legend 亚塞王和圆桌骑士团?Finn, that sounds a bit weird.

　　Finn: OK fine, dont laugh. Actually, hang on, Im not very good at DIY. My saw is stuck - it wont move.

　　Feifei: Give me that. You need to do it like this, nice and smooth.

　　Finn: Thanks Feifei, youre a legend.

　　Feifei: 别客气!A legend. 这里 legend 不是指像亚瑟王或其他来神话和传说里的人物，这里我们用 legend 来形容生活中你身边的人。

　　Finn: Yes - in British slang, we say someone is a legend if they do something very helpful, very generous or very successfully - like in these examples :

　　Thank you for that matey - you helped so much with the party today. Youre a legend.

　　A: Hey, I found your car keys.

　　B: Oh great - youre a legend. Ive been looking for an hour!

　　Hes a legend. He drove me to the airport at 5am.

　　(Sawing sounds)

　　Finn: And there we have it, a perfect round table.

　　Feifei: Well done Finn. Im impressed. Now what?

　　Finn: I thought we could invite a few friends round for dinner. Trouble is, Im absolutely awful at cooking.

　　Feifei: Never fear - Ill do my special Sunday Roast...

　　Finn: Feifei, you are a legend.

　　Feifei: Well you can buy the ingredients! Well need beef, potatoes, flour, carrots. Before you go off to the shops, can you remind everyone of our website?

　　Finn: Of course - bbclearningenglish.com. Im quite hungry. See you next time everyone!

　　Feifei: Bye.
