Feifei
Plates… OK. Spoons… all packed. That's one box full. The kitchen is finished, Neil!
Neil
All packed? Well done. Now let's move on to the bedroom.
Feifei
OK, I'm exhausted. 欢迎收听《地道英语》，我是冯菲菲。在本期节目里，Neil 和我得边收拾边录制节目，因为我们要准备搬家。The house is full of cardboard boxes!
Neil
I know, I know, Feifei. Listen, let's just finish this room and then we can sit down, relax and see what's on the box.
Feifei
Neil, the last thing I want is to look at any more boxes! I need a break.
Neil
Oh, of course. What I meant was: see what's on TV! 'On the box' is a slang expression meaning 'on TV'.
Feifei
在英语里，on the box 和 on TV 的意思完全一样，都表示“在电视上播出的节目”。Anyway, let's listen to some examples while we finish packing.
Neil
Good idea.
Examples
A: See anything good on the box last night?
B: Yeah! There was this great new series about spies.
A: What are you up to tonight?
B: Not much, just gonna relax in front of the box.
Neil
Yes, you can also relax 'in front of the box', which means in front of the television. And which reminds me, Feifei - where is the box, I mean, our TV?
Feifei
Oh, yes. I've packed it already. But I don't remember which box I put it in.
Neil
You mean the box is in a box? But we've packed 20 boxes already. Which one is it?
Feifei
Oh, sorry! Let's just finish packing and then go out for dinner.
Neil
Yeah, I've had enough of these boxes, too. Bye.
Feifei
Bye!
