Volleyball --- A Team Sport
一項(xiàng)集體運(yùn)動(dòng)---排球
David:What is your favorite sport?你最喜歡的運(yùn)動(dòng)是什么?
You:打排球。My favorite sport is playing volleyball.
David:How long have you played volleyball? 你打多久了?
You:10 years on and off. Actually volleyball is a team sport and sometimes we can’t get enough people who also love to play volleyball, to make up a team and pay the fare. If you’re by yourself, then it’s not so much fun. It’s only practice … exercise. 斷斷續(xù)續(xù)有10年了。排球是一項(xiàng)集體運(yùn)動(dòng),有時(shí)候都湊不夠人一起打球、分?jǐn)傎M(fèi)用;但一個(gè)人打又沒意思,就成了一種練習(xí)了。
David:Maybe too individual? 太孤單了吧?
You:Well, it’s different from playing with other people. Too boring. I like volleyball because it is a team sport. I can play and communicate with others and we can all enjoy playing the game together. 對(duì)啊,自己打不如找人一塊兒打,自己打太悶了。我愛打排球就是因?yàn)樗羌w運(yùn)動(dòng),可以和別人交流,一起享受運(yùn)動(dòng)的樂趣。
David:By the way, I heard that the Chinese national volleyball team is one of the best in the world. Is it true? 順便說(shuō)一下,我聽說(shuō)中國(guó)國(guó)家排球隊(duì)是世界上最棒的,是嗎?
You:中國(guó)女排是這樣的。有一段時(shí)間女排表現(xiàn)極佳,獲得五連冠。郎平以前是女排中最出色的隊(duì)員,也是以前女排的隊(duì)長(zhǎng)。退役后執(zhí)教中國(guó)女排。Yes. Women’s volleyball in particular. There was a time they played so well that they won the championship for five times in a row. Lang Ping was the most famous player back then. She was the team captain. She later coached the national team.
David:How about men’s volleyball?男排怎樣呢?
You:沒有女排成績(jī)好。男籃很不錯(cuò),姚明就是一名很出色的隊(duì)員。
