     Jo: Hello, this is Real English from BBC Learning English, I’m Jo.
  Jean: And I’m Jean. Hello!
  Jo: In Real English, we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your dictionary.
  Jean: 和汉语一样,英语语言里是充满了成语和口语词的,所以学习和了解这些短语和口语词是非常有用的。尤其这些说法和语言都是英国人日常说到用到的。那Jo,我们今天要来学习的新词是什么呢?
  Jo: Today’s expression is pig P.I.G. out O.U.T. pig out.
  Jean: Pig out? 说得是猪的什么事儿吗?
  Jo: Well, to pig out means to eat too much food.
  Jean: OK, so pig out 就是大吃特吃的意思.
  Jo: Let’s listen to some examples.

  A: So what do you usually do on Christmas Day?
  B: Oh you know, the usual – I sit and watch TV and pig out on turkey and chocolate!
  A: Did you enjoy the meal last night?
  B: I did – but I pigged out a bit. That pasta was so nice I just couldn’t stop eating it!
  Jo: I really like eating, Jean – I’m always pigging out.
  Jean: And what’s your favourite food?
  Jo: I love pizza – and it’s so easy to pig out on pizza because they are so big! When was the last time you pigged out Jean?
  Jean: Well just last night I went to the cinema and I ate lots of popcorn. 电影院的玉米花已给就是一大包,所以 I really pigged out.

  Jean: Pig out. 大吃特吃. And that’s all for today.
