Neil 和菲菲还有几位同事正要去听音乐会，却发现门票的数量不够。四个人，三张票，这可怎么办？究竟谁愿意做出牺牲，放弃这次集体活动的机会？听对话，学习一个提醒我们为了集体利益，把别人放在自己前面的实用短语。

Feifei
Neil，所有东西都带齐了吗？
Neil
Think so. I’ve got the tickets, most importantly. Would not want to miss this concert!
Feifei
Let me see. One, two, three… Neil?
Neil
Yes?
Feifei
There’re only three tickets. You know Dan’s coming too, right?
Neil
Really? Oh man. We’re one short!
Feifei
What to do?
Neil
I don't know.
Feifei
Neil, it’s OK. I’ll take one for the team. I’m a bit tired anyway.
Neil
Are you sure? I could…
Feifei
Don't worry. I know how much you love this band!
Neil
Too kind. Before I head off, let’s explain the phrase Feifei used. To take one for the team is to give something up for the benefit of others – usually for your friends or colleagues, or your sports team, for example.
Feifei
因为门票数量不够，所以我放弃了去听演唱会的机会，让别的同事去了。I took one for the team. “Take one for the team” 这个短语的意思就是 “为了集体利益，牺牲个人利益”。
Neil
And I’m very grateful. Now, listen to these examples.
Examples
There wasn’t enough space in the car for all of us, so Johnny took one for the team and walked.
Valentyna injured her foot in the first half of the game. She wanted to continue playing, but we decided that someone else should play in the second half to give us the best chance of winning. Valentyna took one for the team.
Sometimes you have to take one for the team. Last week, I spent the day clearing out the kitchen while the rest of the family went to the beach.
Neil
You're listening to Authentic Real English from BBC Learning English. In this programme, we're looking at the expression 'take one for the team'. Right, I better get going.
Feifei
Before you go, Neil, I just want to ask something.
Neil
Yes?
Feifei
We need someone to do the late shift next week. I was wondering…
Neil
Feifei, don’t you worry. I’ll take one for the team.
Feifei
I knew you would! Thanks, Neil. Now, go and enjoy the show!
Both
Bye.
