on（占据优势）和crush（彻底打败）.

Hints:

Li Hua
“哈哈哈”不听写
【PS：getenduyona硬着头皮翻译】
流行美语更新频率：早晚8点各更新一次，两期是一篇完整的音频~~谢谢大家支持
Hi, Li Hua. It has been a busy week.
Unfortunately, I think next week might be even busier. We are bidding against our top competitor for a huge advertising contract, so everybody is going to have to work especially hard to win it.
Yes, although they have a lot of talent, I think we'll be able to get a leg up on the competition.
"A leg up on the competition" means that we have an advantage over them.
Yes, exactly. Because we have got a leg up on our competitors, I'm pretty confident that we'll be able to win the contract.
It's a contract to advertise soda.
Although the other company has worked with them in the past, their last ad campaign was not so successful. We on the other hand have been very successful with similar products, so I think we have got a leg up on them.
It is very good, especially because if we win this contract, we might be able to get a bonus this year.
What's new with you, Li Hua?
Why do you say that, Li Hua?
That's great. What time is the game?李华和Larry星期六早上一起去吃午饭。今天我们要学两个常用语：get a leg up on和crush.
LH: Larry, 一个星期没见，你最近是不是特别忙？
LL: Hi, Li Hua. It has been a busy week.
是哦，这周超忙的。
LH: 下星期是不是就没事了？你陪我去看Disney On Ice冰上迪斯尼怎么样？
LL: Unfortunately, I think next week might be even busier. We are bidding against our top competitor for a huge advertising contract, so everybody is going to have to work especially hard to win it.
不幸的是，我觉得下周可能会更忙。我们跟我们的终极对手竞争一个大型的广告活动，所以即使成功的几率很小，每个人也都得为此更辛勤地工作。
LH: 那家公司不是特别厉害吗？不过没关系，我相信，你们公司一定能赢。
LL: Yes, although they have a lot of talent, I think we'll be able to get a leg up on the competition.
是啊，尽管他们有很多点子，但是我总觉得我们比他们更有优势。
LH: A leg up一条腿在上？这是什么意思？
LL: Haha...”A leg up on the competition” means that we have an advantage over them.
哈哈哈，“A leg up on the competition”意思是，我们比他们更有优势。
LH: 噢，a leg up就是具有优势。
LL: Yes, exactly. Because we have got a leg up on our competitors, I'm pretty confident that we'll be able to win the contract.
确实是。因为我们比竞争对手有优势，所以我对我们能赢得这份合同还是挺有信心的。
LH: 那这份合同是做什么的？
LL: It's a contract to advertise soda.
是关于碳酸汽水的广告合同。
LH: 你为什么觉得自己have a leg up on the competition比对手有优势呢？
LL: Although the other company has worked with them in the past, their last ad campaign was not so successful. We on the other hand have been very successful with similar products, so I think we have got a leg up on them.
尽管其他公司以前跟他们有过合作，但是他们最终的广告方案并不怎么好。另一方面，我们在相同产品上有着相当成功的案例，所以我觉得我们比他们有优势。
LH: 那太好了。
LL: It is very good, especially because if we win this contract, we might be able to get a bonus this year.
是啊，特别是如果我们能得到这份合同，我们可能马上就能拿到这年的奖金呢。
LH: 拿到合同就发奖金？那你们还不得使出吃奶的劲儿来。
LL: What's new with you, Li Hua?
那你呢？最近有发生什么事吗？
LH: 好消息，我们排球队刚刚杀进小组前四名，下一场比赛是这星期五晚上。你一定要来。虽然对手很厉害，可我们还是有优势。We have a leg up on them.
LL: Why do you say that, Li Hua?
为什么你这么说啊？
LH: 虽然他们球员的个人技术都不错，但整体配合不如我们有默契。
LH: That's great. What time is the game?
那很好啊，比赛什么时候开始啊？
LL: 星期五晚上七点一刻。 |
