一、边听边学 Listen and Learn
a tall order 困难的任务
tall tale 夸张，荒诞的故事
out of the question 不可能
out of question 毫无疑问
physical therapy 物理治疗法，理疗
back in the saddle 身体康复，重回正轨
二、边听边说 Listen and Speak
A: have a camping trip scheduled for six weeks from now. Can't it be healed by then?
6周后我要去旅行，到那时能治好吗？
B: That’s a tall order, Paul. But I suppose it's not out of the question. With a lot of rest now and intensive physical therapy, you just may be back in the saddle again in six weeks. But the therapy requires a lot of work and time, and specifically, following the doctor's orders. Can you handle that?
很难，但是我想这也不是不可能。多休息，再加上理疗，你6周内可能就会恢复的。但是理疗需要很多精力和时间…具体要遵守医生的吩咐，你能做到吗？
A: Piece of cake!
小菜一碟！
