今天的這段對(duì)話,在討論大眾面包車(chē),
為什么很多人喜歡開(kāi)大眾面包車(chē)
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
A: Simon, you said your family had a volkswagen van.
西蒙,你說(shuō)過(guò)你家有輛大眾面包車(chē)。
B: That's right. It was awesome.
沒(méi)錯(cuò)。它棒極了。
A: Wow, that's cool. You know, when I was in high school, I had a Volkswagen van.
哇,真酷。你知道,我上高中的時(shí)候也有過(guò)一輛大眾面包車(chē)。
B: Yeah, they're pretty cool aren't they.
嗯,那車(chē)非常棒,是吧?
A: Ah, man, I loved my Volkswagen Van.
嗯,伙計(jì),我愛(ài)我的大眾面包車(chē)。
B: Well, why?
嗯,怎么說(shuō)?
A: Well, because I played sports and so I played baseball, basketball, football and all of my teammates would get in my van and I would drive us to and from practice, or to games, and so it was very convenient. I was like the little bus driver for the team.
因?yàn)槲易鲞\(yùn)動(dòng),當(dāng)時(shí)我打棒球、打籃球、踢足球,我所有的隊(duì)友都會(huì)坐我的面包車(chē)往返于訓(xùn)練場(chǎng)地和比賽場(chǎng)地,非常的方便。我當(dāng)時(shí)就像是球隊(duì)的巴士司機(jī)。
B: Yeah, well, you said "bus". Is that, did you call it a van or a bus?
是啊,可是你說(shuō)“巴士”。你們是稱(chēng)之為面包車(chē)還是巴士?
A: Actually, in California we call it the Volkswagen Bus. Yeah, do you call it the bus or the van?
實(shí)際上,我們加州稱(chēng)之為大眾面包車(chē)。那你們是叫巴士還是面包車(chē)?
B: I think that either was OK, or both were OK. Yeah, my family had the camperized van. (Really!) Which had little, which had a refrigerator and a table and a bed, and a pop-up top to fit, to fit another bed, like a loft.
我覺(jué)得哪種叫法都可以,兩種都可以。我家里有一輛露營(yíng)車(chē)。(真的嗎?。┠禽v車(chē)有一個(gè)小冰箱,一張桌子,一張床,車(chē)的頂部還有一個(gè)可以彈出的床,就像閣樓一樣。
A: Wow! Yeah, that's pretty cool.
哇!那真是太棒了。
B: At least, uh, at least four people quite comfortably in a camper van. Pretty cool.
那輛野營(yíng)車(chē)至少可以容納四個(gè)人舒適地待在里面。非常棒。
A: Yeah, actually, mine didn't have the camper. It had a flat area in back of the van, but not a bed, and it did have a small sink, although I never had water hooked up to my van, so I never used it. I just used it for school, so.
實(shí)際上,我的車(chē)不能用作野營(yíng)車(chē)。我的車(chē)后面有一塊平坦的區(qū)域,雖然沒(méi)有床,不過(guò)有一個(gè)小水槽,不過(guò)我的車(chē)并沒(méi)有連接供水設(shè)備,所以我從來(lái)沒(méi)有用過(guò)那個(gè)水槽。我只是開(kāi)車(chē)去上學(xué)。
B: Yeah, my best friend had a van in high school as well. (Yeah!) and he was really popular there because he could fit a lot of people in.
是啊,我高中時(shí)最好的朋友也有一輛面包車(chē)。(是?。。┧谀抢锓浅J軞g迎,因?yàn)樗能?chē)可以坐很多人。
A: So my van was all white. What color was yours?
我的面包車(chē)是純白色的。你的是什么顏色的?
B: Ah, my parents' van was, was also, was also white. My friend's van had, was black and white and had a skull on the front. Yeah, so it looked like a a pirate van, or pirate bus, not a pirate ship, but a pirate van. (Cool!) It was pretty cool, at the time. You know.
哦,我父母的車(chē)也是白色的。我朋友的車(chē)是黑白的,前面還有骷髏標(biāo)志。就像輛海盜車(chē),不是海盜船,而是海盜車(chē)。(真酷!)你知道,那在當(dāng)時(shí)非常棒。
A: Yeah. Yeah. I actually, I have many nice memories of my van and I wish I still had one today.
是啊,是啊。實(shí)際上,我有很多關(guān)于那輛面包車(chē)的美好記,我希望現(xiàn)在我還能有一輛那樣的車(chē)。
B: Yeah, me too!
是啊,我也是!
A: Yeah! Does your family still have it?
對(duì)啊!那你家里還有這種車(chē)嗎?
B: No, they don't. Ah, time to move on, I guess. They thought.
沒(méi)有了。我想,他們認(rèn)為是時(shí)候要有新的發(fā)展了。
A: Yeah! I think I sold my van because I didn't think it was cool after awhile. I had it for three years and then I wanted a nice sports car, so I got rid of it. Yeah, I kind of regret it but I guess that's just normal.
是?。∥野盐业拿姘?chē)賣(mài)掉是因?yàn)槲矣X(jué)得不久之后它就不再這么酷了。那輛車(chē)我開(kāi)了三年,之后我想要輛跑車(chē),所以我就賣(mài)掉了那輛面包車(chē)。我有點(diǎn)后悔,不過(guò)我想這是很正常的事情。
B: Of course, everybody likes their old cars, don't they.
當(dāng)然了,所以有人都喜歡舊車(chē),不是嗎?
