But there is no reason, Dan, to believe that it was anything other than a hoax,which means a deception or lie – often done for humour or sometimes cruelty. Well, real or not, it could be fun to be a mermaid.I wonder what it would be like?
但没有理由去相信一个骗局啊，hoax是指为了幽默感，有时是为残忍行为而做出的欺骗和谎言。不管真假，做一只美人鱼也很有意思。我很好奇那是什么感觉。
Well, that I can help with. Let Daniel Craig explain why he likes it so much.
这一点我可以帮上忙。让丹尼尔解释他为什么如此喜爱美人鱼。
It’s just serene. It’s the perfect place for a temporary getaway.
很平静。是短暂逃离现实的完美去处。
So he likes it because it’s serene, which means calm and peaceful.
他喜欢美人鱼是因为它很平静，静谧而祥和。
Yes and he says it’s the perfect getaway, which is a place you go in order to escape from normal life.
没错，他还说那是绝佳逃离现实的方式，也就是一个可以让你逃离现实生活的去处。
Well, I still don’t believe in mermaids, but I do believe, Dan, that you asked me a question.
我仍然不相信美人鱼，但我相信你问过我一个问题。
I definitely did.I asked, when did the most recent alleged mermaid sighting take place? Was it a) the 1400s b) 1800s or c) 2000s?
确实如此。我问你最近人们宣称看到美人鱼是什么时候？ a)15世纪， b) 19世纪， 还是 c) 20世纪？
And I said I think it was the 2000s.
我觉得是20世纪。
And you have hit the nail on the head. Well done.
你回答正确！做得好！
Thank you.
谢谢。
You’re right. It was the 2000s. It was in 2012 in Zimbabwe and it was reported by the water resource minister. Let’s take a look at the vocabulary from this programme. Our first word was alleged or allege. If something is alleged it is said or believed be true but not proven to be true.Can you think of a recent example, Catherine?
你答对了，是在20世纪。2012年，津巴布韦的水资源部长报道的。现在我们看看今天节目中的单词。第一个词是宣称的，或宣称。是指说过或相信某事是真的，但该事情并未得到证实。你能举一个最近的例子吗，凯瑟琳？
US President Donald Trump has alleged that newspapers have been printing fake news, but apparently there’s no proof.And our next one was stumbled across.So, if you stumble across something you encounter or find it by accident.It’s a phrasal verb and you could also say come across. So, Dan, have you ever stumbled across anything unusual?
美国总统特朗普宣称报纸上说的都是假新闻，但显然没有证据。下一个单词是偶然发现。是指你偶然遇到或偶然发现某事。这是一个动词词组，你也可以用come across表达相同的意思。但你有没有偶然碰到什么不同寻常的事？
Well, there was a time when I was going to a party in Holborn and I got completely lost. And there on the floor in front of me I stumbled across a map of London.It got me straight to the party.
有一次，我去霍尔本参加派对，但我完全迷路了。然后在我前方的地上，我发现了一张伦敦地图。地图引导我到了派对。
Spooky.
有点令人毛骨悚然的。
The next one after that was a different kettle of fish.A different kettle of fish is an idiomatic phrase which means a completely different matter or issue.You could also use the phrase a horse of a different colour. 
下一个单词是截然不同的事。这个习语是指完全不同的事情或问题。你也可以用a horse of a different colour表达相同的意思。
Next up, we had hoax. And a hoax is a deception or lie – which is often done for humour or cruelty. What was the last hoax you did, Dan?
下一个是hoax，是指欺骗或谎言，通常是为了幽默或者是残忍的行为。你上一个谎言是什么？
One Christmas I wrapped a broken lightbulb in a box and gave it to mother as a present.I pretended to drop it and the broken lightbulb made a glass shattering noise and she thought that I had broken her present.After that we heard serene. Serene means calm and peaceful. The noun is serenity. What’s your idea of serene, Catherine?
一个圣诞节，我把一个破碎的电灯泡装进盒子里，作为礼物送给了我的母亲。我假装把它掉到了地上，破碎的灯泡发出玻璃破碎的声音，我母亲以为我摔碎了她的礼物。之后我们还有serene这个单词。该词是指安静的，祥和的。名词形式是serenity。你认为的静谧祥和是什么样子的？
Two weeks, lying on the beach, drinking lemonade, listening to the sound of the sea. Fabulous. And finally we had a getaway. A getaway is an informal word meaning a place you go in order to escape from normal life, such as a holiday.So, where’s your favourite getaway, Dan?
两周的时间，躺在沙滩上，喝着柠檬汁，聆听大海的声音。很奇妙。最后一个单词是逃离。这是一个非正式的表达，是指可以逃离正常生活的去处，例如假期。你最喜欢的逃离方式是什么？
My favourite getaway is my yoga class.I find it really, really refreshing. Well, that’s the end of today’s 6 Minute English.Please join us again soon!
