Situational Conversations in the Sport
Stadium
1.
奥运会
The Olympics
A
:
Aren’t you
interested in watching the Olympics? There have
been some excellent
performances by
athletes from all over the world.
你不是很喜欢看奥运比赛吗?这儿
有来自各国的运动员精彩的表现。
B
:
I am just not very interested in
it.
我只是觉得不是很有意思。
A
:
But
I think it’s wonderful to see people from all
around the
world.
但我觉得能看到来自世界各国的运动员比赛真是太棒了。
B
:
I
think tha
t for the most of people, it’s
just a way trying to show
their country
is better than other countries.
我想对大多数人来说,这只是一种
显示自己国家比别的国家好的方式。
A
:
I
think the Olympics help to promote world
peace.
我认为奥运会能促进世界和平。
B
:
I
,
m not sure
about that. We still have many wars in the world.
I
think that the idea behind the
Olympics is a good one
,
but
the reality is
that during the Olympics
countries compete. There’s no real spirit of
cooperation and people are usually not
very friendly to each other.
我不敢肯定。
世界上仍有很多战争。
我认为奥林匹克所体现的精神很好。
但
事实上在奥运会上国与国之间进行比赛,
没有真正的合作精神
,
通常人们之间也
不是很友好。
A
:
You are so
pessimistic. The Olympics is a great opportunity
for
athletes to demonstrate their
speed, skill, agility and strength. Most
people hope to see someone from their
country win but I think that they
are
just happy to see good performances by any
athlete.
你太悲观了。
奥运会给运动员提供一个很好的展示速度、
技能、
敏捷性和力
量的机会。
多数
人希望看到自己国家的运动员获胜。
但我想他们看到任何运动员
的精彩表现都会感到高兴。
B
:
Well, I think
that the most amazing performances are by athletes
who participate in the
Paralympics.
p>
是的。我想最让人感到惊奇的是那些参加残疾人运动会的运动员的表现。
A
:
Finally there
we are in agreement.
我们终于意见一致。
2.
球类运动
The Ball Sports
A
:What’s the difference
between soccer and rugby?
足球和橄榄球有什么区别?
B
:
These two games
are quite different.
First
,
it is the size of the
teams. In
soccer
,
there are 11 players
in one team. But in the rugby there
are
15 players. Another biggest difference is that in
soccer, only the
goalkeeper can use his
hands. In rugby, the ball is usually carried
forward
by players, though kicking is
permitted.
这两种球类运动完全不同。首先是球队的大小。足球共有
11
名球员,而橄
榄球每队
15
名球员。另一最大的区别是,在足球比赛里只有守门员可以用手,
但在橄榄球比赛中,
虽然也可以用脚踢球,但主要是球员带球跑。
A
:
In
rugby, players pass the ball by throwing it to
team mates,
don’t they?
橄榄球比赛中球员把球扔给队友来传球,是吗?
B
:
That’s right, however, players can only
pas
s the ball backwards.
They can’t pass the ball forwards to
their team mates. That’s a foul.
是的。可是球员只能向后传球,不能向前传,那样是犯规。
A
:
I
know how goals are scored in soccer, but how about
in rugby?
我知道足球比赛中怎样算分,那橄榄球呢?
B
:
If
a team carries the ball over the goal
line
,
they score
points
;
a
team can also score points by kicking
the ball between two tall posts at
each
end of the pitch.
如果球员把球带过球门区就算得分。
把球踢进横传两端的高柱子之间也可以
得分。
A
:
There’s a lot more physical touch in
rugby, isn’t there?
橄榄球赛中有很多身体接触,是吗?
B
:
Yes. Players usually need to bring a
playe
down to stop him
from moving forward with the ball. This
is called “tackling”,
as in
soccer.
是的。
球员通常需要把对方撂倒,
不让他们带球前进。
这就像足球里的“阻
截”。
A
:
The
ball is a different shape in rugby, isn’t
it?
橄榄球中球的形状也不一样吧?
B
:
Y
es, it’s not perfectly
round like a football. A rugby ball is oval in
shape. The match is starting.
I
,
ll try to explain to you
the rules and tactics
while
we
,
re watching.
是的。它不像足球那样圆,而是椭
圆形。比赛马上就要开始了,我可以一边
看一边
解释比赛规则和战术。
A
:
OK
,
thanks.
好的,谢谢!
3.
田径运动
The Track and Field Games
A
:
It
seems you are very fond of watching track and
field
competition?
你好像也很喜欢看田径比赛?
B
:

school
,
I was quite good at
track and field
games. I was in the
school team for the long jump, 100 and 200 meters
sprints and the javelin.
是的。
在
学校读书时,
我擅长田径项目。
我在校队参加了跳远、
100
米和
200
米短
跑,以及标枪项目。
A
:
Really? I was quite good at the hurdles
and the discus.
真的吗?我擅长跨栏跑和扔铁饼。
B
:
Really envy you. I wish that I were
good at the discus, but I could
rarely
throw it in the right direction! With the hurdles,
I could never even
jump over
them!
真羡慕你。我希望自己能擅长扔铁饼,但我连方向都扔不对。至于跨栏,我
总是跨不
过去。
A
:
You
are doing remarkable. I thought you were good at
the high
jump.
你已经很了不起了。我还以为你擅长跳高呢。
B

No.
I was good at the long jump and the sprints
best.
不,我擅长跳远和短跑。
A
:
Did
you win any competitions?
你曾经赢得过比赛吗?
B
:
I
was regional champion for the 100 and 200 meters.
I usually did
well in the long jump
competitions, but I couldn’t compete with kids
from other schools in the javelin. How
about you?
我是我们地区
100
米和
200
米短跑冠军。我跳远项目的成绩通常也比较好,
但在投
标枪方面,我就比不过其他学校的运动员。你呢?
A
:
I
was the second and third a few times in the
regional
championships, but I never
won. Did you ever take part in the nation
championships for the sprinting
events?
曾在几次地区锦标赛中获得亚军和季军,
但从来没获得过冠军。
你参
加过全国短跑锦标赛吗?
B
:
Yes, I did. But I didn’t do very well.
I made the final in both
events, but
came last. At least I made the final. I was very
pleased with
that.
是的,我参加过。但是成绩不太好
。两项比赛我都进入了决赛,但都是最后
一名。但我很高兴,至少我进入全国比赛的决赛
。
A
:
Yes, actually it is a very good
result.
是的,那其实也是很不错的成绩了。

extreme sports popular in your country?

week, showing extreme
sports and the

跳
伞潜水和悬崖跳水最为普遍。
但也有其他类型的运动,

think that the people who do the skateboarding are
very skilled.
It must take a lot of
practice to stay on the skateboard whilst doing so
many jumps and turns.
我觉得那些玩滑板的人水平很高。
做各种跳跃和转身,还能停留在滑板上,
这是需要大量的练习的。
B
:
The
skateboarding kids are so young. Well,
skateboarding is
better for them than
sitting at home watching TV all day!
那些玩滑板的孩子都很小。对他们
而言这比整天待在家里看电视强多了。

sports?
