Let us start with the number one. Numbers can be tricky. On the one hand, they
are simply numbers. On the other hand, they have meanings. I for one use these
expressions a lot.
今天我们来讲述一下包含数字的表达方式。我们从数字―一‖开始。数字是非
常巧妙的。一方面(On the one hand)，它们仅仅是数字。另一方面，他们也有本
身的意义。举个例子说(for one),我经常用到这些短语。

are always looking out for number one and taking care of number one. It is as if they
are the one and only person on Earth. Some people however, are not so self-centered.
My brother is such a person. It is true – no joke. I am not trying to pull a fast one on
you.
许多人认为他们自己是最重要的人物(number one)。他们经常谋求自身的利
益(looking out for number one),为自己的利益打算(taking care of number one).似乎
他们是地球上唯一的人(one and only)。然而，有些人就不是这么以自我 为中心。
我的弟弟就是这样的人。这是真的——不是开玩笑。我不会试图欺骗你(pull a fast
one)。
First, you have to understand that my brother is one in a million. He is such a
nice person. All his friends like him. They consider him one of the boys. Recently, my

But a quick one turned into one or two, and soon those became one too many.
首先，你必须明白，我的弟弟是万里挑一的人(one in a million)。他是非常好
的人。他所有的朋友都喜欢他。他们认为他是真正的玩友(one of the boys)。 最
近，我弟弟在工作上不是很愉快，那是一段倒霉的日子(one of those days),事事不
顺。所以下班之后就在一个当地酒吧——喝酒的地方逗留。我弟弟打算 跟朋友喝
完一杯啤酒就走——就干一杯(quick one)。但是干一杯(quick one)变成了一两杯
(one or two)，一会儿就喝多了(one too many)。
As my brother was leaving, he ordered a last drink -- one for the road. His
friends became concerned. One by one, they asked him if he was able to drive home
