You mean one of those schools where young ladies learn how to behave in high society?
你是指年轻女性学习上流社会举止的学校吗？
Yes, did you go to one?
没错，你上过么？
What do you think?
你认为呢？
Well, your manners and behaviour are so impeccable that I would not be surprised if you had.
我觉得你的行为和举止简直无可挑剔，所以，说你上过我也不会感到惊讶。
Well, I don’t know about finishing school, but it sounds like you’ve graduated from charm school!
呵呵，其实我不太了解女子精修学校，反倒你好像是从礼仪学校毕业的。
In days gone by, social etiquette, or the way to behave in polite society, was something that well-to-do young ladies were tutored in.Today’s programme is all about a course being run now for teenage boys in an English school. Before we learn more about this, here’s today’s question. A question about etiquette.In a fancy restaurant, either side of your place setting there are different knives and forks for the different courses of your meal. Maybe there are three different forks on the left and three knives on the right.The question is, which should you use first? The knife and fork furthest from your plate, the set closest to your plate or the set in the middle? Jennifer, what do you think?
在过去，社交礼仪（或者在上流社会中的举止）是富裕的年轻小姐学习的东西。今天的节目就和一所英语学校里十几岁男孩所上的课程有关。在我们进一步了解之前，还是先来看看今天的问题。这道题和礼仪有关。假设你在一家高档餐馆里吃饭，餐盘周围摆放着不同用途的刀叉。也许左边有三把不同的叉子，右边有三把不同的小刀。那么应先使用哪套呢？是离餐盘最远的一套，最近的一套，还是中间的那套呢？Jennifer，你会怎样选？
Well, I think I know the answer to this one. I think it’s outside-in. So I think the set furthest from your plate is the one you use first.
我想我知道这道题的答案。应该是由外向内使用。所以我认为应该先用离餐盘最远的那套刀叉。
OK. We’ll find out if you’re right at the end of the programme. Fowey School in England has begun offering etiquette lessons to teenage boys. So whose idea was this? Here’s their Headmaster, John Parry, talking to our colleagues from BBC Radio.
好的。节目最后我们会揭晓答案看你是否回答正确。英国福伊学校已为十几岁的男孩开设了礼仪课。这是谁的主意呢？下面一起来听听他们的校长John Parry怎么说。
The way it came about was that a group of girls actually wanted a course to prepare them for the Year 11 Leavers’ Ball which is, which is something which most schools do these days.They’re pretty sophisticated events, and the boys said, actually you know what, we want a piece of that as well.
此想法的灵感来源于一群女孩子。其实是她们想上礼仪课好为毕业舞会做准备。如今，大多学校都会举行毕业舞会。这些舞会很高级，很复杂，所以男生们提议他们也应上礼仪课。
Jennifer, whose idea was it?
Jennifer，给十几岁的男生上礼仪课是谁的想法？
It was the boys’ idea. John Parry said it ‘came about’ because, after the girls had asked for a course to prepare them for a special social event, the boys wanted one too.Or as he put it, the boys said, “We want a piece of that as well”. Which simply means, they wanted to be included as well.
是这些男生的想法。John Parry说此想法会形成，是因为在女生要求上礼仪课希望为社交活动做准备后，男生们也希望有这样的课程。或者像John Parry所说的，男生们表示也想参与其中。换句话说，他们也想被包括进来。
