A:So, which sport do you prefer---basketball or baseball?你喜歡哪種運動,籃球還是棒球?
B:To be honest, I don't really care for either one.坦白說兩個我都不喜歡.
A:I thought everyone liked basketball. Why don't you like it?我覺得所有人都喜歡籃球.你為什么會不喜歡呢?
B:I used to play basketball when I was little, and I never scored a goal. Every time I watch a basketball game, I think about how horrible I was at it.我小時候就打過籃球,但是總得不了分.每次我看籃球比賽的時候都會回想起自己當年多狼狽.
A:That makes sense.我明白了.
B:How about you? What's your favorite sport of all time?你呢?你最喜歡什么運動?
A:My absolute favorite is ice hockey.我最喜歡的是冰球?
B:Have you ever seen a live game?你去現(xiàn)場看過比賽嗎?
A:Sure, many times. It's an exciting game for spectators to watch.當然,看過很多場.對觀眾來說這是令人血脈膨脹的比賽.
B:I've never really understood the game.我從來就沒弄懂過這種運動.
A:It's not that difficult. If you want to watch a game with me, I can explain the rules and the tactics while we're watching.這一點都不難.如果你愿意跟我一起看場比賽,我就可以邊看邊向你解說比賽的戰(zhàn)術和規(guī)則.
B:Thanks, that'd be nice. When's the next ice hockey game on?謝謝你,那可太好了.下一次冰球比賽時什么時候?
A:Not for a while, but we could watch an old one on the internet so I can explain the game to you.還得過一段時間,不過我們可以先在網(wǎng)上跟你看一場過去的比賽回放,解釋給你聽.
B:That's a good idea.好主意.
A:Let's watch the Canadian team. They have a good manager and a great coach.咱們看加拿大的比賽吧.他們對的經(jīng)理人和教練都很優(yōu)秀.
