Oops! 感叹词：惊讶
Diarmuid: Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English from BBC Learning English. I'm Diarmuid. 大家好，欢迎来到BBC地道英语。我是圣保罗。
Feifei: 大家好，我是冯菲菲。在地道英语里你会学到英国人日常生活中常用到，而且通常在字典和课本里找不到的单词和短语。
Diarmuid: That's right. Feifei, could you pass me my cup of tea please? 对啦，菲菲，可以把我的茶递给我吗？
Feifei: Sure. Here you are… Oops! Oh, I'm so sorry I've dropped it. 我刚刚没拿好茶杯，所以把茶洒了一地。唉！
Diarmuid: No! My tea is all over the floor! 不！我的茶撒得一地都是！
Feifei: I'm really sorry Diarmuid. 真抱歉，圣保罗。
Diarmuid: Never mind. It's only a cup of tea. And anyway, something good has come out of this accident. 没关系。这只是一杯水，不管怎么样，还是有好事的。
Feifei: What's that? 是什么？
Diarmuid: You have already introduced today's new word: oops! 你已经说出了今天要说的新词了。
Feifei: Oops. O.O.P.S. Oops. Oops. 这是一个感叹词，表示惊讶或遗憾。当我们范了一个小错误是，比方说像刚才把茶洒了一地，或是在电脑上打字敲错了一个字母，这种时候我们就用 oops.
Diarmuid: Yes, whenever you make a small mistake such as knocking something over, you can say the word oops. 是的，无论什么时候你犯了一个小错误或者打翻什么东西，你可以用这个感叹词。
Example
A: Be careful moving that pile of books. 小心移动那堆书。
B: Oops! 哎呀！
A: Now look! Those books are all over the place. 看吧，书到处都是了。
B: Don't worry. I'll soon pick them up. 别担心。我会尽快收拾好的。
Feifei: 不过要记住这个词一般只适用于犯小错误的时候。
Diarmuid: Yes, if you use oops when something serious has happened, it could appear that you are not taking the situation seriously. 是的，如果你用这个词描述一些严肃的事，那么就是说你没有严肃对待这种情况。
Feifei: Are there any other words in English that we can use instead of oops? 还有什么词和oops意思相近吗？
Diarmuid: Of course, there are always alternatives in English. Some people say whoops instead of oops. 当然，英语里有很多替换词。有的人用whoops代替oops。
Feifei: Whoops.
Diarmuid: And some people might even say whoops-a-daisy, although that is a little old-fashioned now. 有的人甚至用whoops-a-daisy，尽管有点过时了。
Feifei: Well it's the end of the programme. Remember to listen to more Real Authentic English... oops! I got the name of the programme wrong! 嗯，这期节目就到这里了。记得收听更多的地道英语节目……哎呀，我把节目名说错了。
Diarmuid: Whoops-a-daisy! I think you meant Authentic Real English from the BBC. 我相信你知道是BBC地道英语节目。
