什么能讓你露出笑容？如果賺了大錢，你會(huì)不會(huì)很高興？Rob 買的股票漲了，他可是樂(lè)壞了。他告訴菲菲自己現(xiàn)在的狀態(tài)是 “l(fā)aughing all the way to the bank 一路笑到銀行”，這是什么意思？聽他們的對(duì)話，學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè) “好笑的” 表達(dá)。

Feifei
大家好，歡迎來(lái)到 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的《地道英語(yǔ)》節(jié)目。我是馮菲菲。

Rob
And hello… I'm Rob.

Feifei
Something funny, Rob?

Rob
Not really… Well, yes actually. I've had some luck.

Feifei
Tell me more.

Rob
Well, I bought loads of shares in that new chain of burger restaurants and guess what?

Feifei
You've got a free burger?

Rob
No, Feifei. The price of the shares has risen and I've doubled my money. I'm laughing all the way to the bank! For the first time in my life, I'm rich!

Feifei  
Calm down, Rob! 就算你買的股票大漲，賺了一大筆，也不至于 “l(fā)aughing all the way to the bank 一路笑到銀行” 吧！

Rob
Seriously, Feifei! If I 'laugh all the way to the bank', it just means 'I have made lots of money very easily'.  

Feifei
Of course!

Rob
Let’s hear some more examples.

Examples
The florist laughed all the way to the bank when she signed a deal to supply all the hotels in the chain with flowers.  

Since we bought it, the price of our house has greatly increased. So when we come to sell it, we'll be laughing all the way to the bank.

Now the two companies have merged, shareholders will be laughing all the way to the bank!

Feifei
這里是 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的《地道英語(yǔ)》節(jié)目。在這集節(jié)目中，我們給大家介紹了一個(gè)有趣的表達(dá) – “l(fā)aughing all the way to the bank 一路笑到銀行”。這個(gè)表達(dá)的實(shí)際意思是 “輕易發(fā)大財(cái)，輕松得財(cái)賺大錢”。But, Rob, buying shares is no laughing matter.

Rob
Oh, why is that?

Feifei
因?yàn)楣善?“shares” 可是有跌有漲的！And I've just read that because someone got food poisoning at one of those burger restaurants, the share price has gone down.  

Rob
Oh, so my get-rich-quick plan hasn't worked.

Feifei
Can you cry all the way to the bank as well?

Rob
Cry all the way to the bank? Yes, I think you can – and I'm gonna do that right now. I need to borrow some money. Bye.

Feifei
I can lend you a fiver! Bye.
