大家好，欢迎收听《地道英语》。我是冯菲菲，还有我的搭档 Harry。
Harry
Hello everybody and welcome! And the popular modern expression we are going to look at in this programme is ‘game changer’.
Feifei
Game changer – 本期节目我们就来为大家讲解介绍 game changer 这个时下很流行的表达。Harry – did you end up buying a new TV like you were planning?
Harry
I certainly did – and then some! I don’t know if ‘TV’ is really the right word for it though.
Feifei
Why not?
Harry
Well, it’s so much more. It’s got a 72-inch curved screen with ultimate high-definition and it’s 3D. When you watch a programme, it’s like you’re really there.
Feifei
Wow – 72寸3D曲面屏幕电视！It sounds amazing!
Harry
It is! TV will never be the same again. In TV terms, it’s a real game changer.
Feifei
A game changer? 什么意思？
Harry
Well, it’s so unlike any normal TV that it’s changed the rules of what TVs are. You’ll never think of TV in the same way if you watch my TV – it’s a new world of television.
Feifei
Game changer 指得是一个完全崭新的、不同以往的东西。这个东西彻底的颠覆了其所在领域的传统游戏规则。这个领域可以是科技方面的，比如，Harry 新买的电视；或某人的创新理念；再比如音乐或时尚领域的新发展动向，或任何一个改变传统规则的创新。
Harry
Let’s listen to some examples.
Examples
The Beatles’ album Sergeant Pepper was a real game changer – it transformed pop music forever.
Our company needs a game changer – someone who can come in and rethink the way we do everything.
Last year my boss said we could all work from home whenever we needed to, and it’s been a real game changer in the way we work.
Feifei
以上例句中给大家分别列举了不同领域的 game changers。For people learning English, I suppose the internet has been a real game changer. You can study anytime, anywhere now.
Harry
You can – especially if you visit our website bbclearningenglish.com.
Feifei
Very true, 对于英语爱好者来说，我们BBC英语教学的网站就是一个真真正正的 game changer 。So Harry, I suppose you’re going to be staying in tonight.
Harry
Me? No, I’m going out.
Feifei
But, you’ve got an amazing new TV, the game changer.
Harry
I know, but it’s Thursday, and there’s never anything good on TV on Thursdays. And to be honest, I think I’ve been watching too much TV. I need to get out more.
Feifei
Oh well – I guess your TV didn’t change the game for long. 谢谢大家收听，我们下次《地道英语》再会。
Both
Bye!
