中英歌词
一首极为经典的英文歌曲——Top of the World。各位好，欢迎收听今天的《听歌学英语》，我是主播Canace，你可以叫我小C。这首歌中文译名为《世界之巅》，来自于Karen Carpenter。她嗓音优美，略带伤感，演唱亲切自然，这首歌被她演唱得清甜和淳朴。清新、健康的旋律和略带忧郁的中音十分令人难忘。接下来让我们先听听歌，稍后为你带来歌词讲解。

我们来重点看一个单词Breeze，在歌词里面它是一个名词，可以理解为a gentle wind，一阵微风。
在口语里，Breeze的名词形式还可以表示轻而易举的事，比如：
It is a breeze. 这事儿不费吹灰之力。
Don’t think that learning English will be a breeze.
不要以为学英语是一件很轻松的事儿。
除了以上两个意思，breeze还经常和一个介词搭配在一起：breeze through，表示轻松完成，轻易通过，举个例子：
Jim breezed through the final exam.
Jim毫不费力地通过期末考试。
Breeze还有一个很地道的俚语表达叫做，shoot the breeze，shoot是开枪，shoot the breeze，往微风里开枪？这似乎说不通啊。但其实它的真正意思是聊天，闲聊。粤语也有一个类似的俚语叫做“吹水”，吹水并不是说真的把水给吹走，而是指闲聊的意思。
I just shot the breeze with John for a while when he passed me on the street.
我在街上遇到John，所以和他闲聊了一会儿。
