But now, let's hear more about this story from this BBC News report:

但現在，讓我們從這篇BBC新聞報道中聽到更多關於這個故事的資訊。

So, Will Smith hit Chris Rock at the Oscars ceremonies on Sunday night.

是以，威爾-史密斯在週日晚上的奧斯卡頒獎典禮上打擊了克里斯-洛克。

This was after Chris Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith, Will's wife.

這是在克里斯-洛克對威爾的妻子賈達-平克特-史密斯開了一個玩笑之後。

Shortly after this, Will Smith won an award for Best Actor

此後不久，威爾-史密斯獲得了最佳男演員獎。

and used his speech to say sorry to the organisers, the Academy.

並利用他的演講向組織者--學院說對不起。

And we've got three words and expressions from the news headlines

而我們從新聞頭條中得到了三個詞和表達方式

about this story. What are they please, Roy?

關於這個故事。請問他們是什麼人，羅伊？

We do. We have 'overshadows', 'press charges' and 'slammed'.

我們是這樣做的。我們有'陰影'、'按指控'和'抨擊'。

That's 'overshadows', 'press charges' and 'slammed'.

OK. Let's have a look at the first word from your first headline please.

好的。讓我們看看你的第一個標題中的第一個詞，請。

OK. So, our first headline comes from NBC News and it reads:

好的。是以，我們的第一個標題來自NBC新聞，內容如下。

That's 'overshadows' — causes something to seem less important.

這就是 "遮蔽"--導致某些東西看起來不那麼重要。

OK. So, 'overshadows' is spelt O-V-E-R-S-H-A-D-O-W-S

好的。所以，"overshadows "的拼法是O-V-E-R-S-H-A-D-O-W-S

to make someone or something less important.

使某人或某事變得不那麼重要。

this happens when something blocks the light from the sun

當有東西擋住太陽光的時候就會發生這種情況

and you get a 'shadow' — a dark area behind it.

你會得到一個 "影子"--它後面的一個黑暗區域。

So, are we talking about something here blocking the sun.

那麼，我們在這裡談論的是阻擋太陽的東西嗎。

No, we're not exactly but it is, kind of, related.

不，我們不完全是，但它是，有點，相關。

所以，當一個'陰影'被投下時。

and that is the verb we commonly use — to 'cast a shadow' —

這就是我們常用的動詞--"投下陰影" --

the thing in the 'shadow' becomes darker, less in the light.

處於 "陰影 "中的事物變得更暗，在光線下更少。

而這是一個類似的想法，在這裡。

One action or an event takes another thing out of the light

一個行動或一個事件把另一個東西帶出了光亮

or out of the focus and therefore it becomes,

或不在焦點上，是以它變成了。

we're talking about Will Smith's dream to win an Oscar,

我們正在談論威爾-史密斯贏得奧斯卡獎的夢想。

but his... his... his confrontation with Chris Rock 'overshadowed' that.

但他的......他的......他與克里斯-洛克的對抗 "掩蓋了 "這一點。

Right. So, it's his dream that was 'overshadowed',

對。所以，是他的夢想被 "掩蓋 "了。

但某些東西可以 "掩蓋 "某人嗎？

是的，所以，我們已經談到了夢想。

but you can absolutely — you can 'overshadow' somebody.

但你絕對可以--你可以 "掩蓋 "某人。

Maybe there's somebody at work who is just really good at what they do

也許工作中的某個人真的很擅長他們的工作。

and it makes other people feel 'overshadowed',

而這讓其他人感到 "黯然失色"。

或者它 "掩蓋 "了其他人的工作。

Or maybe they're louder and they're more outspoken

或者說他們的聲音更大，他們更直言不諱

and therefore they can 'overshadow' other people,

是以，他們可以 "蓋過 "其他人。

and in that sense, it means to make people or their work less noticeable.

而在這個意義上，它意味著使人們或他們的工作不那麼引人注意。

Yes! Yeah, it can. Maybe there's one sibling

是的！是的，它可以。也許有一個兄弟姐妹

who's always getting the top grades, the top awards...

誰總是得到最好的成績，最好的獎項...

And then the other sibling, maybe doesn't quite do as well —

然後另一個兄弟姐妹，也許做得不是很好 --

they're still good, but they are 'overshadowed' by the...

他們仍然很好，但他們被 "掩蓋 "了。

the student who's performing better academically.

OK. And it does have a literal meaning as well, doesn't it?

好的。而且它確實也有一個字面意思，不是嗎？

It does, yeah. For example, let's talk about buildings:

它確實如此，是的。例如，讓我們來談談建築物。

if one building is a really, really big and there's another building behind it,

如果一棟樓真的非常大，而且後面還有另一棟樓。

you can say the big building 'overshadows' the little building.

Got it. Right, let's have a summary then of that word:

明白了。對了，讓我們對這個詞做個總結。

We were talking about shadows and things being in the shade.

我們正在談論陰影和事物在陰暗處的問題。

Well, we taught the expression 'to throw shade'

嗯，我們教過的說法是'拋出陰涼'。

in one of our videos, The English We Speak.

在我們的一個視頻中，我們說的英語。

So, how can someone watch that please, Roy?

那麼，請問怎麼才能有人看呢，羅伊？

Well, all you need to do is click the link in the description below.

那麼，你所需要做的就是點擊下面描述中的鏈接。

OK. Let's move on now to your next headline please.

好的。我們現在來看看你的下一個頭條新聞吧。

OK. So, our next headline comes from The Independent and it reads:

好的。是以，我們的下一個標題來自《獨立報》，內容如下。

So, that's 'press charges' — file a police report.

所以，這就是'按指控'--提交一份警方報告。

好的。所以，這裡有一個兩個字的表達。

Second word: 'charges' — C-H-A-R-G-E-S.

第二個詞：'收費' - C-H-A-R-G-E-S。

And we use it to mean file an official complaint

而我們用它來表示提出正式申訴

Now, of course I know about this word 'press'.

現在，我當然知道 "新聞 "這個詞。

It's when you put pressure on something, like a button:

這是當你把壓力放在某個東西上時，比如一個按鈕。

不，所以，你是對的，你說到...

那是......當我們談論 "新聞 "時。

it's often used as a physical action like, for example,

它經常被用作一個物理動作，比如說，。

you're in a lift and you 'press' a button to go down or go up,

你在電梯裡，你'按'一個按鈕，就可以往下走或往上走。

To 'press charges' means to accuse somebody officially,

Individually, these two words, 'press' and 'charges' —

單獨來看，這兩個詞，'新聞'和'指控' --

'Press' can mean, as you say, 'press' a button, apply pressure.

'按'可以是指，如你所說，'按'一個按鈕，施加壓力。

Or you could force somebody — 'press' somebody for answers.

或者你可以強迫某人--"逼迫 "某人回答。

To 'press' someone — I'm 'pressing' you for an answer:

你也可以把它作為銀行 "收費"。

which is an amount of money you're being requested for,

or you can even use it to 'charge' your phone, which means to give electricity.

或者你甚至可以用它來給你的手機 "充電"，也就是給電。

但在這裡，由於這兩個詞的組合。

'press charges' means to make an official complaint
