  • Hello. Welcome to The English We Speak with me, Helen...
  • 大家好。欢迎来到我们说的英语节目,我是海伦。
  • ...and me Rob. Hi!
  • 还有我,罗布。大家好!
  • Rob, I like your trainers, very cool... and look at your designer jeans. Trendy!
  • 罗布,我喜欢你的运动鞋,非常酷……我正在看你穿的这条设计师牛仔裤。
  • Rob's looking quite trendy today-for a change!
  • 真时髦!今天罗布看上去非常时尚,和平常不一样啊!
  • So you like them then?
  • 那你喜欢吗?
  • I do but... it's not really what someone your age normally wears.
  • 我喜欢,但是……这并不像你这个年纪的人穿的衣服。
  • I see. But don't you think it makes me look cool and fashionable and... younger?
  • 我知道。可是你不认为这使我看上去又酷、又时尚而且年轻了很多吗?
  • I'm just trying to get down with the kids.
  • 我只是在试着
  • The kids?! You're down with the kids? Down where exactly?
  • 孩子们?!你要和孩子们一起去?准确地说是去哪里啊?
  • Oh Helen, keep up! I'm not going anywhere.
  • 海伦,振作一下!我哪里也不去。
  • I mean I'm keeping in with the kids. I'm in tune with the younger generation - yeah!
  • 我是说我只是要和孩子们处好关系。要和年轻一代更搭调!
  • So Rob, to do this you have to dress like a teenager?
  • 罗布,要做到这样一定要打扮得像青少年吗?
  • Not just that. I share the same interests as young people.
  • 不仅仅是这样。我和年轻人有同样的兴趣。
  • I listen to their music on my mp3 player. Like this.
  • 我用MP3听他们喜欢听的音乐。就像这首。
  • Could you turn that down please!
  • 请你把音量调低点好吗!
  • So you're acting young when really you aren't!
  • 你只是表现得像年轻人,可实际上你并不是!
  • It seems getting down with the kids is about behaving like them.
  • 看起来和孩子们玩到一起就是要行为举止像他们。
  • Well, you are certainly a big kid Rob!
  • 罗布,你绝对是个大小孩!
  • Let's hear some examples of people using this phrase.
  • 我们来看看应用这个短语的例子吧。
  • My Dad's bought a new skateboard so that he can be down with the kids!
  • 我爸爸买了个新的滑板,这样他就能和孩子们玩到一起了!
  • I almost broke my neck snowboarding on holiday but hey, at least I'm down with the kids.
  • 假期玩雪板的时候我差点扭伤了脖子,不过至少我和孩子们相处得很好。
  • She's dyed her hair red and pierced her nose just so she can be down with the kids!
  • 她把头发染成了红色,而且打了鼻洞,这样她就能跟上孩子们的潮流了!
  • So Rob, what else are you doing to be down with the kids?
  • 所以,罗布,为了和孩子们打成一片你还做了什么事?
  • Hey Helen, doing things like chillin' and being where it's at.
  • 海伦,就像是做一些令人害怕的事情,还要去热闹时尚的地方。
  • Rob not all kids talk like that.
  • 罗布,不是所有孩子都喜欢那样的。
  • Oh right. Well, I've got some rollerblades so I can blade round the park.
  • 好吧。我有旱冰鞋,所以我可以在公园滑旱冰。
  • The only trouble is... I can't seem to get them on... Ouch, my back!
  • 唯一的麻烦就是,我好像穿不上,哎哟,我的后背!
  • Are you OK? It looks like Rob has a bad back, so he won't be down with the kids for a while!
  • 你还好吗?看起来罗布的背不好,所以他暂时不能和孩子们玩了!
  • Do you need some help?
  • 你需要帮助吗?
  • Thanks. I think I'll just put my slippers on - much more comfortable.
  • 谢谢你。我想我还是把拖鞋穿上吧,舒服多了。
  • Remember, being down with the kids can be hard work. See you next time. Bye bye!
  • 要记住,跟孩子们赶时髦可不是那么容易的事。我们下期节目再见。拜拜!
