  • The English we speak from bbclearningenglish.com hello.

  • This is the English we speak.

  • I'm Fei Fei.

  • Hello.

  • I'm Rob.

  • Why have you brought a bowl of fruit into the studio?

  • I'm not feeling great.

  • And, you know, fruit is packed with vitamin C, so I thought eating some would do me good.

  • I see.

  • Well, I'm sorry you're not feeling great, but we have got a program to do and an English phrase to teach.

  • If you don't mind, I might just read a few lines from the script today to save my voice.

  • Perhaps I could just read the funny lines.

  • No, Rob, you can't just cherry pick what you want to say.

  • Cherry pick?

  • No, Fei Fei.

  • There aren't any cherries in my fruit bowl, so I won't be picking any.
