你是否曾因朋友在你看完某部剧之前告诉了你未来的情节而毁了你看剧的兴致？你可以告诉你的朋友，下次要 “剧透” 前，应该先说 “spoiler alert”。菲菲和 Roy 在本集节目中教你如何使用 “spoiler alert”。
Feifei
大家好，欢迎收听 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。我是冯菲菲。
Roy
And I'm Roy! Did you watch the latest episode of the hit soap 'A Duck Between a Rock and a Hard Place'?
Feifei
No, I haven't watched the latest episode yet.
Roy
It was epic! Spoiler alert! It turns out that Martin wasn't really a duck, but actually Bob, the evil twin brother of the magnificent unicorn Flim-Flam.
Feifei
What!? 我简直不敢相信你竟然告诉了我剧情！我一直在看这部剧，这下可好，大结局都被你讲了，我不用看了！
Roy
But I did say 'spoiler alert' before I told you! And don’t worry – there's going to be another episode tonight because – 'spoiler alert!' – the evil unicorn, Bob, didn't die at the end!
Feifei
Roy! 你能不能不要再继续说下去了？就因为你说了 “spoiler alert（剧透警告）”，并不意味着你就可以告诉我所有剧情！
Roy
Sorry, Feifei. I promise I won't tell you any other spoilers. Let's listen to these examples.
Examples
Martina told me a massive secret that happens in the book, and she forgot to say 'spoiler alert!' I'm so annoyed with her!
Next time you give me a spoiler, make sure you say spoiler alert beforehand!
I hate spoilers! They ruin films for me, but when I watch a video on social media and I hear someone say 'spoiler alert', I turn it straight off.
Feifei
你正在收听的是 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。以上，我们听到了人们在生活中如何使用表达 “spoiler alert”。“Spoiler alert” 就是汉语里说的 “剧透警告”，我们常在要透露一部电影、一部电视剧、一本书的部分情节前，会说 “spoiler alert”。I hate when people give me 'spoilers'.
Roy
Yeah, spoilers can ruin the story for someone. I'm sorry, Feifei, I shouldn’t have given you any spoilers.
Feifei
Well, after you say 'spoiler alert' – you need to give me more time before you tell me what happened.
Roy
Sorry, I will do. Well, I suppose we're now even for all the times you've told us secrets about films and series! You never even say 'spoiler alert'.
Feifei
Well, Roy. Did you get the email from me earlier?
Roy
No, why? What did it say?
Feifei
Spoiler alert! You have to work the weekend because I'm going to the spa.
Roy
What, not again!? Oh… bye, Feifei!
Feifei
Bye.
