地道英語(yǔ)
I don't buy it我才不信呢!
?
內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介
在日常交流中,如果你聽(tīng)到了一件讓你覺(jué)得不合理或不真實(shí)的事情,這時(shí)你就可以用英語(yǔ)表達(dá) “I don’t buy it.” 來(lái)告訴大家 “我可不相信”。相反,“buy a story” 的意思是 “相信某人說(shuō)的話” 或者 “相信一件事情”。聽(tīng)對(duì)話,學(xué)習(xí) “I don’t buy it.” 的正確用法。

Feifei
大家好,歡迎收聽(tīng) BBC英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的 “地道英語(yǔ)” 節(jié)目。I'm Feifei.

And I'm Phil. We have an expression that you can use if you just don't believe someone – it's 'I don't buy it'.
Feifei
I don't buy it. 這個(gè)表達(dá)很有意思。雖然 “I don't buy it.” 里面包含了動(dòng)詞 “buy(購(gòu)買)”,但它的實(shí)際意思是 “我不相信”,和 “買東西” 沒(méi)有關(guān)系。
Phil
No, it's not connected to shopping. Beth told me she can juggle with five balls – and I just don't buy it – I've never seen her practising. It can't be true!
Feifei
And you told me you can play the trumpet! But I've never seen or heard you do it – I don't buy it.
Phil
Did I really say that? I'd forgotten. I said the same thing to my brother and he definitely didn't buy it – he knows I have no musical talent at all.
Feifei
Clearly. Let's listen to these examples.
Examples
You're saying it was an accident? Sorry, I don't buy it.
She said her broken computer stopped her doing the assignment, but her tutor just didn't buy it.
He said he was working late, but I don't buy that story!
Feifei
你正在收聽(tīng)的是 BBC英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的 “地道英語(yǔ)” 節(jié)目。上面我們介紹了如何用表達(dá) “I don't buy it.” 來(lái)表示 “我不相信一件事情”。
Phil
It's quite informal but you'll hear it a lot in speech.
Feifei
是的,我們多在人們的口頭對(duì)話中聽(tīng)到這個(gè)表達(dá) —— “I don't buy it.” 不過(guò)我們也可以用 “buy a story” 來(lái)表達(dá) “相信某人說(shuō)的話” 或者 “相信一件事情”,但這個(gè)用法不如它的否定形式 “I don't buy it.” 常用。
Phil
Feifei, I did explain why I didn't get you a birthday present, didn't I?
Feifei
You did, but I don't buy that story. I'll give you until tomorrow to find something! See you then.
Phil
Bye!
