Neil... Hey, where is Neil? Although he's great presenter he's often late. Oh, here he comes!
尼尔……嘿，尼尔在哪里？虽然尼尔是名出色的主持人，不过他经常迟到。哦，他来了！
Sorry, sorry Li, I'm here now. Sorry, I'm a bit late.
抱歉，抱歉，莉，我来了。抱歉，我来得有点晚。
Wow Neil, you look so different today: a suit and tie - what's happening?
哇，尼尔，你今天看起来很不一样：穿西装打领带，有什么事吗？
Well, I have to present our video: 'The Perfect English Gentleman' it's called.
嗯，我要去主持《完美的英国绅士》这个视频节目。
That sounds fun. Don't you want to do it?
听起来很有趣。你不想做吗？
Not really.
不太想。
Why not? You are a great presenter. Everyone loves your voice.
为什么不想？你是一名出色的主持人。所有人都喜欢你的声音。
Well, it's not my voice that's the problem.
现在问题不是我的声音。
Look at this massive, broken nose and spotty skin, my missing teeth, and long greasy hair...
你看看我这个又大又塌的鼻子，长满雀斑的脸，脱落的牙齿还有又长又油的头发……
Li, I'm pretty ugly.
莉，我非常丑。
I kept saying to my boss that I have a face for radio, but he insisted I present the video.
我一直对老板说我长得不好看，但是他坚持让我主持那档节目。
What can I do?
我该怎么办？
Did you say you have a face for radio? But you don't need to show your face as a radio presenter, do you?
你是说你长了张适合做广播的脸吗？不过作为广播节目主持人，你不用露脸，不是吗？
That's exactly the point, Li.
莉，这就是重点。
If you say someone's got a good face for radio, it's an indirect way of saying they are not very good looking!
如果你说某个人“长了张适合做广播的脸”，那就是在暗示那个人长得不好看！
I see. I like this phrase 'a face for radio' - an indirect way of saying someone is not very attractive.
我明白了。a face for radio这个短语是暗示某个人没有太大的吸引力。
Here are some examples:
下面来听例句：
Jane looked beautiful at her wedding.
简在婚礼上太漂亮了。
Really?
真的吗？
She must have had a good make - up artist because, to be honest, she's got a face for radio.
那她一定请了名优秀的化妆师，因为，说实话，她长得不好看。
No one's going to choose me at this speed - dating event.
没有人会在速配活动上选择我的。
Why on earth not? You're such a warm - hearted guy.
为什么没有？你是一个非常热心的人。
Thanks. But you have to admit, I've got a face for radio.
谢谢你。不过你得承认，我长得不好看。
