哈佛校園生活情景對話:休閑娛樂
After lunch, Han Meimei and Li Lei are having a walk.
H: Don’t tell me this is your whole life, only filled with study and work. Do you recreate yourself?
H:別告訴我這就是你生活的全部內容,只有學習和工作,你休息娛樂嗎?
L: Sports and recreation have always been a part of my life, either in high school or in university now. I’m good at playing basketball.
L:運動和娛樂一直是我生活的一部分,不管是在高中還是現在在大學,我籃球打得 很好。
H: Do you play in the intercollegiate games?
H:你參加校際比賽嗎?
L: No, basketball is only my hobby, but I do participate in freshman intramural competition. It’s a good chance to get acquainted with a large number of classmates.
L:沒有,籃球只是我的業(yè)余愛好,但我的確參加了新生校內比賽,這是個能結識很 多同學的好機會。
H: I think so. From American films and my personal experience, I can see that American high schools and universities always give prominence to sports competition.
H:我也是這么想的。從美國電影和我的親身經歷來看,美國高中和大學一直都很注 重體育比賽。
L: Harvard is no exception. It believes that a comprehensive athletics program provides physical, social, and emotional benefits that is vitally important in a highly competitive educational environment.
L:哈佛也不例外。它相信一項競技運動項目有益于學生的身體、社交和情感,在這 個競爭很激烈的教育環(huán)境下,這些素質是相當重要的。
H: Sure. I have the same feeling. You know, study sometimes is one’s own matter. Often students can’t feel the pressure of competition in study. So the longer students stay in school, the more naive or even lazier they will become.
H:肯定了,我有同感。你知道,學習有時候是一個人的事情,學生在學習的時候經 常感覺不到競爭壓力,所以學生在學校呆的時間越長,就會變得越幼稚甚至懶散。
L: If you participate in athletics, you will value cooperation, competition and victory very much.
L:如果你參加了競技運動,你就會非常重視合作、競爭和勝利。
H: The goal of education is to produce all-round people, mentally and physically. There must be many other athletics in addition to basketball.
H:教育的目的就是要培養(yǎng)綜含型人才,不管是心智上還是體力上。除了籃球肯定還 有很多其他體育運動吧。
L: The range is wide, from men's sports to women’s sports, from basketball, baseball, football, soccer, volleyball, golf, ice hockey,lacrosse, to sailing,skiing, swimming and diving, water polo, and wrestling, etc.
L:范圍很廣泛,從男子體育到女子體育,從籃球、棒球、美式足球、英式足球、排 球、高爾夫球、冰球、曲棍球到帆船運動、滑雪、游泳和跳水,很多。
H: Are these all competitive athletics?
H:這些都是競技體育項目?
L: Not really. You don’t have to do sports to participate in large games. You can just join some clubs which will hold some small-scaled competitions.
L:也不完全是,你沒必要為了參加大型體育比賽而做運動。你可以只參加一些俱樂 部,這些俱樂部也會舉行一些小型比賽。
H: That’s good news for me.
H:那對我來說是好消息。
L: Harvard offers students many ways and facilities to do sports. If you don’t want to compete with other, and just would like to take recreation to relax, you can go to the recreational centers.
L:哈佛為學生提供了很多運動項目和設施。如果你不想比賽,只想休息放松一下, 你可以去休閑中心。
H: What if I want to learn something new, like yoga?
H:如果我想學點新東西呢,比如瑜伽?
L: You do have a lot of question. Don’t worry, there are Personal Training services which will help you achieve your health and fitness goals.
L:你問題還真多。別擔心,有個人培訓服務,可以幫你達到健身目標。
H: What a colorful university life.
H:大學生活真豐富多彩。
L: This is only a small part. Our life will be incomplete if there are no movies, music, books, foods, and things like that.
L:這只是一小部分。要是沒有電影、咅樂、書、美食之類的東西,我們的生活會是 不完整的。
H; Can I enjoy all these things at Harvard?
H:在哈佛我可以享受所有這一切嗎?
L: That’s out of question. We need entertainment. You can find anything you want in Harvard Square: movie theaters, music clubs, bookstores,clothing shops, restaurants, and so on.
L:沒問題。我們需要娛樂,你可以在哈佛廣場找到你想要的一切:電影院、音樂俱 樂部、書店、服裝店、飯店等等。
H: Everything? I’m always fond of black jazz, but I haven’t got a chance to appreciate real jazz music.
H:所有的?我一直都很喜歡黑人爵士音樂,但一直沒機會欣賞真正的黑人爵士音樂。
L: I recommend The Regattabar. It opened in 1985 and since then it has become the leading jazz club not only in Boston, but in New England as well. Boston magazine bestowed its “Best of Boston” award thirteen times naming The Regattabar “Best Jazz Club” and in 1998 inducted The Regattabar into its “Best of Boston Hall of Fame’’.
L:我推薦Regattabar爵士俱樂部。它1985年開業(yè),從那以后就一直是波士頓甚至 是整個新英格蘭地區(qū)的第一爵士俱樂部。〈波士頓志13次授予它“波士頓最佳” 獎項,指定它為"最佳爵士俱樂部’’,并在1998年把它列為‘‘最佳波士頓名人堂”。
H: Wow, Harvard Square is really something. If we scour the Square carefully, perhaps we can have some unexpected gains. Don’t dilly-dally, let’s go. What a wonderful day! Hurry up!
H:哇唔,哈佛廣場還藏龍臥虎呢。如果我們仔細捜尋的話,很可能有意想不到的收 獲。別磨蹭啦,走吧。多么美好的一天啊I快點!
