實(shí)戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：His DoOver 他希望重新來過的事情

Sarah: So Adam, today we're talking about do-overs. So what is something that you wish you would have done over? For example, maybe something in your university life?

薩拉：亞當(dāng)，今天我們來談?wù)勀阆Ｍ貋硪槐榈氖虑椤Ｄ男┦悄阆朐僦匦聛磉^的事情?也許是你大學(xué)生活期間的事情?

Adam: Yeah. There are a few things. I might change my major. I studied education, and while I enjoy what I'm doing right now, my free time I really like watching movies about science and astronomy. And if I would go back to school and start my studies over, I'd probably study something along those lines, astronomy and metaphysics or something. I think that those topics are really interesting and on the cutting edge of science and just fascinating to explore.

亞當(dāng)：對，有一些事情。我想改專業(yè)。我的專業(yè)是教育學(xué)，雖然我很喜歡我現(xiàn)在的工作，不過我在空閑時(shí)間非常喜歡看有關(guān)科學(xué)和天文學(xué)的電影。如果我能回到學(xué)校，重新學(xué)習(xí)，我可能會學(xué)習(xí)與天文學(xué)或玄學(xué)相關(guān)的專業(yè)。我認(rèn)為那些課題非常有意思，我非常想去探索最尖端的科學(xué)。

Sarah: Interesting. Anything else you wish you would have done?

薩拉：這很有意思。還有其他事是你想重來一遍的嗎?

Adam: I might have been more involved in the sports clubs at my school. For example, the American football team. I played in high school but in college, I wanted to play but I didn't have the motivation to push me over the edge to actually go out and really put my heart into it. I went to one training day and kind of tried out, but I didn't really pursue it as much as I would have liked. I think it would have been fun to be a part of that culture and that environment.

亞當(dāng)：我可能會在上學(xué)期間加入運(yùn)動隊(duì)。比如美式橄欖球隊(duì)。我在高中打過美式橄欖球，不過上大學(xué)以后，我雖然想繼續(xù)，但是沒有動力驅(qū)使我全身心投入到橄欖球運(yùn)動中。我之前參加過訓(xùn)練和選拔，但是雖然我很喜歡橄欖球，但是我并沒有盡力去參與這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動。我認(rèn)為成為橄欖球文化和環(huán)境的一部分會很有趣。

Sarah: How about something that you did do that maybe now you wish you hadn't?

薩拉：那那些你做過但是現(xiàn)在你希望沒做過的事是什么?

Adam: I pierced my ears in high school because that was the cool thing to do. But now I don't wear earrings. And yeah, looking back on it, kind of just a silly thing to do that I'm trying to follow the trends, that, you know, trends usually pass. So yeah, that would be something that I wouldn't do again.

亞當(dāng)：我在高中打了耳洞，因?yàn)楫?dāng)時(shí)我認(rèn)為那是一件很酷的事情?？墒俏椰F(xiàn)在不戴耳環(huán)?；叵胍幌拢冯S潮流真是一件很傻的事情，潮流總會過時(shí)的。這是我不會再做的事情。

Sarah: Nice. Anything else you would have changed?

薩拉：好。還有其他你希望改變的事情嗎?

Adam: I might have made different decisions about my girlfriends at the time. I had a really good girlfriend in the beginning of college, and things didn't work out because of a variety of reasons. But I think if we would have worked on it, we could have. We could have made it, made it happen. So yeah, that's something I think about sometimes about life in college. It's always, you know, college love is kind of a crazy thing. So yeah, we're too much like kids, I guess, I think at that age.

亞當(dāng)：我可能會對之前的女友做出不同的決定。剛上大學(xué)時(shí)，我交了一個(gè)非常不錯(cuò)的女友，但是因?yàn)楦鞣N原因，我們倆沒能走下去。不過我認(rèn)為，如果我們能解決我們的問題，我們是能修成正果的。我們能成功，我們能做到。這是我在想到大學(xué)生活時(shí)，有時(shí)會思考的事情。你知道，大學(xué)時(shí)的戀愛非常瘋狂。在那個(gè)年紀(jì)，我們還像孩子一樣。

Sarah: Okay. Thanks, Adam.

薩拉：好。謝謝你，亞當(dāng)。
