第十五部 第八課: jazzed , to catch some waves

  • 夏天的時候,Larry 和李華開車去海邊玩。李華會學到兩個常用語:jazzedto catch some waves
  • ………………………………………………………………………………
  • Li Hua, I am really jazzed about this trip to the beach.
  • Jazz不是爵士樂嗎?我們去海邊跟爵士樂有什麼關係呢?
  • You are right, but by Jazzed I mean to be really excited. I am really looking forward to spending some time at the beach today.
  • 我知道了,Jazzed的意思是很興奮。其實我也挺高興的,不過我想知道有什麼事情讓你這麼興奮呢?
  • There are three reasons. First, I am really jazzed to not be working! I have been working really hard on a project for my boss, and it is really nice to have some time off.
  • 對,你為你老闆的那個項目花了一個月的時間,現在完成了當然要放鬆一下嘍。不用上班,這個理由很成立,另外兩個理由呢?
  • Second, I am very jazzed about trying out my new surf board and riding some waves.
  • 你想試試你新買的衝浪板。那也合理,你那新的衝浪板真是很漂亮。要我是你,I would be very jazzed, too. 不過呢,我只想躲在陽傘下面看書。
  • I don't see how you can get jazzed about reading a book, Li Hua.
  • Oh, Larry, 你喜歡衝浪,我喜歡看書。各人的興趣不同嘛。
  • I guess that is what makes the world interesting! I get really jazzed about playing Frisbee at the beach, too.
  • 在沙灘上扔飛盤,那有什麼好玩的?那是小孩玩的東西。
  • Remember what you said, Li Hua? Different people get jazzed about different things.
  • 沒錯,沒錯,我是說過。
  • Remember, the guy in our English class really get jazzed about flying kites. We should have asked him to come to the beach with us today.
  • 對了,忘了邀請他一起來了。你不是說有三個理由讓你興奮嗎?
  • Yes, the third reason is that I am jazzed to be spending some time with one of my favorite friends. And that would be you, Li Hua.
  • 第三個理由是跟像我這樣的好朋友一起出遊讓你感到興奮。Larry,你的嘴可真甜吶。不過,我還是謝謝你的好意。
  • ………………………………………………………………………………
  • Well, now that I've put on some sun screen, Li Hua, I am going to go catch some waves.
  • Catch some waves? 你能抓到海浪嗎?
  • Ha, ha. I don't mean with my arms. To catch some waves- WAVES, means to ride some waves on your surfboard.
  • Oh, 我明白了, 你是要去衝浪。 不過,今天的浪不太,即使是用新的衝浪板也不好沖喲。
  • You are right, Li Hua. It isn't the best day to catch waves. The waves aren't very big, but I can at least try out my new surfboard by catching some little waves.
  • 不管是大浪還是小浪, 反正有浪就行了。Go and catch your waves。我在這裡看我的書。
  • Oh, come on Li Hua, why don't you come out and catch some waves with me?
  • 我不知道怎麼衝浪,我從來沒有試過。
  • Catching waves isn't hard, Li Hua. I can show you how.
  • Okay, 那我去試試。不過, 你知道我有點緊張。
  • Oh, it will be fine, Li Hua. Let's go catch some waves.
  • (Ocean/splashing sounds)
  • 我們已經在水裡了,那怎麼衝浪呢?
  • First, you hold on to the surfboard like this. And then you wait for a wave to catch. When a big wave comes along, you stand up on the surfboard and ride it.
  • 我來試試。 把衝浪板拿好, 然後海浪一來,就站到衝浪板上。噢,我的天啊, 大浪來了!
  • Okay, Li Hua, try to stand up. Good job, you caught your first wave!
  • Wheeeee, 我第一次衝浪成功了!
  • See, I told you catching some waves isn't hard.
  • 衝浪是不難。 Larry,我們再來一次吧。
  • ………………………………………………………………………………
  • 今天李華學到了兩個常用語。一個是 jazzed, 意思是令人興奮,還有一個是 catch some waves, 意思是海上衝浪
