Helen: I see. 你不早点解释,原来这个短语 irons in the fire 和打铁,烫衣服都没关系,它的意思是同时有好几件事情要办,或者是同时你有好多选择。So you have a few irons in the fire because you have a few different options for your fortnight off?
Jen: Thats right - I cant wait.
Helen: So, tell me, Jen, what are your irons in the fire - what are you planning?
Jen: Well, I have a friend in Paris who I havent seen for ages, so I could go there... Id like to pop up to Scotland to visit my sister and her children for a few days... Theres also a cheap deal to Turkey that Ive seen and I already have some yoga classes booked in!
Helen: Wow, thats a lot!
Jen: There was one thing you were right about, though...
Helen: Whats that?
Jen: I do have a huge pile of ironing to do, too! Join us again for another edition of Authentic Real English from bbcukchina.com. Bye for now!
Helen: Bye!
