“出故障”怎么說？
Rob: Hello and welcome to the English We Speak. My name is Rob.
歡迎收聽地道英語(英語口語)。 我是Rob。
Helen: And hello, my name is Helen.
嗨，大家好!我是Helen。
Rob: Hold on Helen, hold on. We cant hear you properly. I think yourmicrophone is playing up.
等一下，Helen。 我聽不清楚你在說什么 我覺得你的麥克風可能在playing up(出故障)了。
Helen: Playing up?
Playing up?
Rob: Sorry, I didnt quite catch that.
對不起，我沒怎么聽清楚。
Helen: Let me just push this button. There! Hello. Now, you said the microphone was playing up?
讓我來按一下這個按鈕。 好了 嗨， 你說我的麥克風在playing up?
Rob: Thats right. It wasnt working properly. If something isnt working as it should be, we sometimes say its playing up.
沒錯， (你的麥克風)出了問題。 假如什么東西不像它本來應該那樣正常運作，我們就稱之為 playing up。
Helen: Up not down?
用up而不是down嗎?
Rob: No，playing down is a different expression that means something totally different.
不是，playing down(貶低;淡化)的意思完全不一樣。
Helen: OK. So as the picture on my TV at home is flickering, I can say my TV is playing up?
哦。 也就是說如果我家的電視畫面閃個不停的話，我也可以說TV出故障咯?
Rob: Exactly. Lets hear about some other things that are playing up
沒錯啦 讓我們來聽聽例句，看看是什么東西失靈了：
I dont think Ill be able to give you a lift to work today, my cars been playing up.
我今天可能不能載你去上班了，我的車壞了
My phone keeps playing up. Every time I dial a number, it just switches itself off.
我的電話出了點小故障 每次我撥號的時候，總是自動關機。
Helen: That sounds like my phone! So if something isnt doing what is should do then its misbehaving?
聽起來好像說的我的電話 也就是說如果什么東西沒有正常運作，我們就可以說它在搗蛋使壞咯?
Rob: Ha Ha! Well, you could say that. Its just like people. When they misbehave we can say theyre playing up. Like this
哈哈! 呃，也可以這樣說。 就好像人一樣。 當他們搗蛋的時候，我們就可以稱之為playing up， 就像這樣：
Sorry but Im going to be late. The children have been playing up and Ive still got so much to do.
對不起，我可能會遲到。 家里的小孩不聽話，我一時忙不過來!
Helen: Children are very good at playing up; its usually because they want attention.
小孩真的很會制造麻煩!通常是因為他們想引起別人的注意!
Rob: Now, Helen, could I have your attention now please because playing up is also something you can say to describe a part of your body thats not working properly.
現在，Helen，你也要注意一下，因為playing up同時也可以用來描述身體上某部分不對勁。
Ow! Im going to have to lie down; my backs playing up again.
哎呦， 我得躺下;我的背又開始作怪了!
Count me out of this weekends football match; my legs playing up so I need to rest it.
這個星期的足球賽我就不去了。我的腿出毛病了，得休息!
Helen: So it seems playing up refers to anything thats not working or behaving as it should. Now Rob, my legs also been playing up so I wonder if you could give me a lift home in your car?
看起來playing up好像可以指任何沒有正常運作的東西。 哦，Rob，我的腿也出毛病了所以我在想，你是否可以用你的車送我回家呢?
Rob: No way - oh it looks like my microphones playing up now!
想得美(小聲地)!哎呀，我的麥克風好像壞了。
Helen: No Rob, its you whos playing up - now switch it back on!
停下來，Rob。瞧現在誰在playing up(使壞)了?把(麥克風)重新打開!
Rob: Oh, oh OK then Helen!
哦， 哦，好吧，Helen。
Helen: Lets go then. Bye!
一起走吧。 再見!
