　　Jo: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.

　　Jo: Today’s new word is ‘to chill out’.

　　Jean: Chill out. I don’t think I’ve heard that one before. What does that mean?

　　Jo: Well, to chill out is a very common expression in English nowadays. It means relax, calm down or take it easy.

　　Jean: 噢，就是休闲放松、、悠闲逍遥的.意思吧? Is that the only way we use it, Jo?

　　Jo: Well, there is another situation in which you might use it. If your friend was getting very stressed and anxious about something, you might tell them not to worry – just ‘chill out’.

　　Jean: 原来还有让人平静下来不要烦恼的意思。So, Jo, if my boss was getting stressed about me being late for work, I could tell him to ‘chill out’?
