Rob's not impressed with a new cafe that's opened near the office. Feifei thinks he's just not happy with the quality of the milkshakes but as you'll hear, there's something else about the place he's not happy with. Learn a great new expression in The English We Speak.

羅布認為辦公室附近新開的咖啡廳不怎么樣。菲菲認為他只是不滿意奶昔的質(zhì)量,不過大家會聽到羅布說他其實是對其他的事情不滿意。本期地道英語節(jié)目將教大家一個很棒的新短語。
Rob: Hello, I'm Rob...
羅布:大家好,我是羅布。
Feifei: ...and I'm Feifei and this is The English We Speak.
菲菲:我是菲菲,歡迎大家收聽地道英語節(jié)目。
Rob: Now Feifei, did you try out that new cafe on the way to work today?
羅布:菲菲,你今天在上班路上有沒有去那家新開的咖啡廳?
Feifei: Yes, I did – I was really impressed – the new cafe has a great range of food and friendly staff. So have you tried it Rob?
菲菲:我去了,那家新開的咖啡廳令我印象深刻,他們有很多種食物,而且員工也很友好。羅布,你去過那家咖啡廳嗎?
Rob: Yeah, I've been there twice now – but, well, it's no great shakes.
羅布:去過,我去過兩次,不過我覺得那里不怎么樣。
Feifei: No great shakes?! That's the best thing about it, they sell amazing banana milkshakes... mmmm
菲菲:沒有很好的奶昔?那家咖啡廳的奶昔是最棒的,他們賣的香蕉奶昔非常美味……嗯。
Rob: No, no, no. I wasn't talking about the shakes – I was referring to the cafe generally – there's nowhere to sit, the queues are long, and they didn't put enough froth on my skinny cappuccino – so it's no great shakes – in other words, it's not very good.
羅布:不是,我不是這個意思。我說的并不是奶昔,我指的是那家咖啡廳,那里沒有地方坐,要排很長的隊,他們在我的低脂卡布奇諾咖啡里放的泡沫也不夠,所以那家咖啡廳不怎么樣,換句話說,那里不太好。
Feifei: Oh so no great shakes is an expression that means it's not very good. So you're not impressed?
菲菲:哦,所以no great shakes這個表達方式的意思是“不太好”。所以你對那家餐廳沒什么好感?
Rob: I'm afraid not. And no great shakes also means 'ordinary' which describes this cafe. Let's hear some more examples of this phrase in action...
羅布:恐怕是這樣的。這個短語也有“普通”的意思,可以用來描述這家咖啡廳。我們來聽些例句,看這個短語如何應(yīng)用。
Examples
例句
My sister puts on a good dinner party but she's no great shakes when it comes to cooking!
我姐姐舉辦了一場很棒的晚宴,但要說到廚藝,她就不怎么樣了!
That new singer has a great voice but he's no great shakes at playing the guitar.

The film sequel is no great shakes compared with the first one – there was no story and the special effects were awful!
和第一部相比,這部電影的續(xù)集不怎么樣,沒有什么劇情,特效也很糟糕!
Feifei: So that's the expression no great shakes which means not very good or not very impressive. But Rob, maybe if you did try the banana milkshake it might change your opinion about the cafe? Look, I've got one here...
菲菲:所以這個表達方式的意思就是不太好或是令人印象不太深刻。不過羅布,也許你嘗試了他們家的香蕉奶昔以后,你會改變對那家咖啡廳的看法。看,我這里有一杯……
Rob: Mmmm, thanks, yeah... It's not bad, actually. This is a great shake. OK, well, perhaps I'll give it a second chance...
羅布:嗯,謝謝,嗯,味道還不錯。這杯奶昔很好喝。好,也許我應(yīng)該再給那家咖啡廳一次機會。
Feifei: Where are you going?
菲菲:你要去哪兒?
Rob: To buy a milkshake!
羅布:去買杯奶昔!
Feifei: You do know they cost four pounds?
菲菲:你知道一杯奶昔要4英鎊嗎?
Rob: What? Four pounds! Yes well, as I was saying, that cafe really is no great shakes.
羅布:什么?4英鎊!好吧,正如我之前所說,那家咖啡廳真不怎么樣。
Feifei: If you say so Rob. Bye.
菲菲:你說是就是吧,羅布。再見。
Rob: Bye.
羅布:再見。
