Feifei
大家好！歡迎收聽 BBC英語教學的 “地道英語” 節目。You are Rob…

Rob
… and you are Feifei. And if I may say so, what a great presenter you are!

Feifei
Oh, thank you very much.

Rob
You're welcome. And you are so talented. I don't think you really need me here to present this programme.

Feifei
Hmm… Rob 對我又是恭維，又是討好，居心何在？

Rob
Err… so, perhaps I could go now, and you just carry on by yourself?

Feifei
Oh, hold on! I know the score!

Rob
What? You know the score? Already? But the match doesn't start for another 30 minutes.

Feifei
你把話題又扯遠了！我剛才說 “I know the score！” 意思是 “我知道你想干什么！” 英語短語 “know the score” 用來表示 “了解情況，知道某事的真相”。Let's hear some examples.

Examples
You know the score – you can't leave work until you've finished all your tasks.

I think she knew the score – she didn't have the right grades to get into university.

We know the score – money is tight, so we won't be getting a bonus this year.

Feifei
你正在收聽 “地道英語” 節目。以上我們一起學習了短語 “know the score” 的意思和用法。在日常交流中，當我們想表達 “了解情況，知道某事的原委，心中有數” 的時候，就可以說 “I know the score.” And, Rob, I know the score with you – you want me to finish this programme on my own so you can leave early.

Rob
Hmm, it's true, Feifei. I need to be somewhere.

Feifei
And this has got something to do with football?

Rob
Yes. I have a ticket to see my favourite team play – and the match starts in half an hour. So, if I could just…

Feifei
Sorry, Rob – no. I've got a ticket to the theatre, and the show starts soon, so I need to go now as well. See you tomorrow.

Rob
Oh. Bye, Feifei. Hmm, now I know the score – she gets to leave early, and I don't. Bye.
