Feifei大家好，欢迎收听 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。我是冯菲菲。
Neil… and I’m Neil. Feifei, you’re very lucky I’m here – I have so much work to do. I haven’t got much time to talk to you.
FeifeiOh, that’s a shame. I like presenting this programme with you.
NeilReally? Well, that’s nice. Let’s get on with it then and afterwards I’ll just get down to some hard work.
FeifeiNeil 说我们录完节目后他要 “get down to some work（开始努力完成一些工作）”。To be honest, Neil, if you have lots of work to do, maybe you need to double down.
NeilDouble down? Do you mean do my work twice?
FeifeiNo, not exactly. “Double down（双降）” 的实际意思是 “加倍努力做某事，用比以前更坚定的方式继续做某事，更有决心去完成一件事”。So, I’m saying you need to work harder.
NeilI already am. Look, I’ve made these examples…
ExamplesI need to double down on my revision – I’ve got an exam tomorrow.
We’re going to double down on our work and finish the project by Friday.
You need to double down on your exercise regime – you’re getting unfit!
Feifei你正在收听的是 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。以上我们给大家举例讲解了如何使用 “double down” 这个动词短语。我们用 “double down on something” 来表示 “加倍努力或专注于做某事”。Neil, you need to be more determined to get your work done. Put more effort in!
NeilOK, Feifei. I will double down on my work – but I still think it will take double the amount of time.
FeifeiWell, that’s a shame because you’re going to miss the office drinks after work.
NeilOffice drinks? I didn’t know about those. Right, I’m off to do my work now and I’ll be there at the double.
Feifei“At the double”，又一个包含了 “double” 的短语。“At the double” 的意思是 “迅速，立即”。Good luck with your work, Neil. I’ll see you later. Bye!
NeilBye.
