Jennifer: Hello and welcome to The English We Speak from BBC Learning English. My name is Jennifer and Li is with me here in the studio.

珍妮佛:大家好，欢迎来到BBC学英语之我们所说的英语。我的名字是珍妮佛，和我一起在演播室的是李。

Li: Hello everyone. What have you been doing this morning, Jen?

李：大家好。你这个早晨在干什么，珍？

Jennifer: Oh I've been playing on this great new game on my smartphone. It's a puzzle where you have to find matching pictures of fruit. Now it sounds easy, but it's really addictive.

珍妮佛:哦，我一直在玩我智能手机上的新游戏。这是一个连水果图片的游戏。虽然听起来简单，但非常让人着迷。

Li: I love puzzles like this, especially when they're really addictive. Can I have a go?

李：我喜欢玩这种游戏，特别是让人着迷的那种。我可以试试吗？

Jennifer: Yes, you can. In fact, I'm stuck on level 33. I can't complete it at all. Why don't you see if you can do it for me? It's doing my head in!

珍妮佛:可以。事实上，我卡在第33关了。我实在是完成不了它。你为什么不帮我试着完成一下哪？这真的太让我头疼了！

Li: OK, give it to me and I'll see what I can do. Jen said that the computer game is 'doing her head in'. If something is 'doing your head in', it means it is frustrating or annoying.

李：好的，给我看看我能不能通关。珍说这个游戏“让她头疼”。如果一件事“让你头疼”，这意思是这件事很令人沮丧或烦恼。

Jennifer: It's a phrase which is often used by young people, it's a slang phrase. Let's hear some examples of how you might use it:

珍妮佛:这是一个经常被年轻人使用的短语，是一个谚语。让我们来听一听如何使用它的例子:

Jennifer: So the computer game is doing my head in because I find it difficult. It's frustrating.

珍妮佛:这个游戏让我头疼是因为我觉得它很难，让人失望。

Li: You can also say that people are doing your head in, if they annoy you in some way.
