大家好，笨小孩广播学口语准时与大家相约，Andy 送上最诚挚的问候, good day, everyone !今天我们来学习的两个俚语是He is as rich as Croesus和It is over the top.

(过渡音乐)

我们先来看第一句俚语He is as rich as Croesus . Croesus是公元前六世纪小亚细亚吕底亚国极富的国王，rich是“富有”， as rich as Croesus,像Croesus一样富有，那就 是“极富有的”。 He is as rich as Croesus，就是“他极其富有”。

阿蕊总想嫁个有钱人，她向往那种挥金如土的生活，正巧一次晚宴上她结识了一位公认的 “钻石王老五”，大家都说：“He is as rich as Croesus。(他极其富有。)”

阿蕊开始接近他，并成了他的情人，可过了一段时间，她向朋友诉苦说：“I thought he was as rich as Croesus, but later I found that was not the case.(我以为他很有钱，但后来发现情况并非如此。)”

下面我们来看第二句话It is over the top .Top是“顶端，顶部”，over the top,在顶端上面，那就是过了头了，它的意思就是“过火或过头”。 It is over the top，就是 “这太过分了。”

阿华和阿波一起去看电影，看完后两个人都觉得拍得不好。阿华说：“The film’s violent ending is completely over the top.(影片结尾的暴力场面太过分了。)” 阿波也认为很过分，并说：“And I think the hero tends to go over the top.(而且我认为主角的表演很过火。)”

大家做事一定要掌握一个度，过犹不及嘛。
