介绍： Welcome to English as a Second Language Podcast number 1,301 – Describing
Very Large and Small Sizes.This is English as a Second Language Podcast episode 1,301. I’m your host, Dr.Jeff McQuillan, coming to you from the Center for Educational Development in beautiful Los Angeles, California.
This episode is a dialogue between Ian and Shannon about describing the size of
something. Let’s get started.
[start of dialogue]
Ian: Oh, look at your team. How cute! You’ve recruited the puniest players you could find.
Shannon: Are those your players? They’re humungous!
Ian: My players are the best around. They’re massive in size and massive in talent. They’ll (敏感词无法提交， 压碎；弄皱，变形；使…挤入) your teeny-tiny team without breaking a sweat.
Shannon: Our teams are supposed to have players from the same age group, so why is it that I have normal-size players and yours are gigantic? Something doesn’t smell right.
Ian: It all comes down to recruitment. I recruited the best players.
Shannon: Are you sure you don’t have a few ringers on your team, some who are
a few years older than they’re supposed to be?
Ian: Of course I don’t. I can’t help it if the best players gravitated toward my team
and to my better coaching. Ready to be schooled?
Shannon: I think I’d better give my team a pep talk first. A few of them look like
they’re ready to bolt – or throw up!
