英语听力：2013-08-02 《流言终结者》第11季 第8集 完全爆炸手册—1

 Attention viewers, don’t try anything you are about to see at home. 

 

We’re what you call “experts”.

 

On this charged-up episode of Mythbusters, there’s fire in the hole, “Fire in the hole!” as the Mythbusters unleash¹ their A to Z of explosions. 

 

We’ve exposed the creamy center.

 

From A for audit², to Z for zenith. 

 

Three, two, one. 

 

This alphabets the bomb!

 

A behind-the-scenes blast from the past, “Nice ride.” “Thanks.” as well as new booms to bloom. 

 

And that is an explosion in water.

 

Get set for one of the most explosive episodes in Mythbusters’ history. 

 

Fire.

 

I bet my family’s glad they let me borrow that china. 

 

Who are the Mythbusters?

 

Adam Savage³, (70% chance of science) and Jamie Hyneman. Between them, more than 30 years of special effects experience. Together with Tory Belleci. “That was insane.” Grant Imahara, and Kari Byron. 

 

Let’s do it.

 

They don’t just tell the myths. They put them to the test.

 

All right. You’re wearing bomb suit. You got a crazy look in your eyes. I’m guessing we’re going to do something pretty explosive.

 

Not just pretty explosive. Very explosive. 

 

How so?

 

We’re unveiling the A to Z of Mythbusters explosions.

 

Exactly. We’re going to be presenting the ultimate guide to everything that goes boom. 

 

We’re going to be reminiscing about our favorite explosions, revealing insider secrets and most importantly, blowing a lot of stuff up. 

 

That sounds great.
