实战口语情景对话 第301期:Learning English 学习英语

 　　Todd: OK, Kawabe! (Hai) Can you tell us about your English success story.

　　托德：好的，川边，你能跟我们谈谈成功学习英语的故事吗？
　　Kawabe: English success story (Yeah, yeah) It's not a success story but I can tell how I learned. OK, first of all, I don't think I learned English as a foreign, a foreign language because I loved to listen to music, especially rock n' roll when I was a teenage. So when you love music, you become, like you, you want to sing with it so you memorize the whole lyrics 1 and you know stuff and, so to me it was like, just, you know, a hobby, it was just a fun purely 2. It was the pure fun for me so, I didn't think I studied.
　　川边：成功学习英语的故事？（对，没错）这其实并不算成功的故事，不过我可以说说我是如何学习的。好，首先，我认为我并没有把英语当作外语来学习，因为我喜欢听音乐，我年轻的时候尤其喜欢听摇滚乐。所以，你如果喜欢音乐，你就会想跟着音乐一起唱歌，所以你就要记下所有的歌词，然后就你会知道一些知识，对我来说，这就是个爱好，纯粹是乐趣。对我来说是纯粹的乐趣，所以我想我并不算学习。
　　Todd: Wow, that's great! So did you listen without reading the words, the lyrics, or did you just listen and read the lyrics at the same time?
　　托德：哇，那真棒！你在听歌的时候是不看歌词，还是一边听歌一边看歌词呢？
　　Kawabe: Um, both! (Both) Both, yeah! Sometimes, I'd see words which I don't understand, so I look up the dictionary and you know check the meaning and, you know, the things was always like this.
　　川边：嗯，都会！（都会吗）对，都会！我不理解的时候会看歌词，会查词典，你知道就是查一下单词的意思，就是类似这样的事情。
　　Todd: Um, so did you do anything else besides music?
　　托德：嗯，那除了听音乐以外你有别的学习方法吗？
　　Kawabe: Ah, what else? Yeah, the movie! The movie! Like, yeah, I loved to, one of my favorite movies, the Blues 3 Brothers, because you know, that movie is interesting, and first of all, that funny, you know the funniest movie and like a great comedy in the history I think and that movie was famous for it's music, right, you know, that movie's soundtrack is great, and I have the CD in my room. And then..
　　川边：别的方法？看电影！电影！我喜欢看电影，我最喜欢的电影之一就是《福禄双霸天》，因为你知道，那部电影很有趣，首先很有意思，那是最有意思的电影，我认为它是历史上一部伟大的喜剧，当然那部电影也因配乐而出名，你知道，那部电影的原声带非常棒，我房间里还有原声带的CD呢。还有……
　　Todd: You have it in your room?
　　托德：你房间里有那个CD？
　　Kawabe: Yeah!
　　川边：对！
　　Todd: Really!
　　托德：真的吗？
　　Kawabe: Yeah! I do and, so I saw that movie so many times. I don't remember how many times I saw that, and when you , you know, after the repetition, you know watching the same movies so many times you memorize a whole like words and sentence, what John Belushi was saying, what Dan Aykrod was saying, so it was a great study I think, for me!
　　川边：对，我的确有，那部电影我看了很多次了。我都记不清我看了多少次了，在重复看了几遍以后，你知道，在一部电影看了很多次以后，你会记住电影里面的所有对白，约翰·贝鲁西的对白，还有丹·艾克罗伊德的对白，所以我认为，这对我来说是很好的学习方式。
　　Todd: Wow! That's a great..
　　托德：哇！那很棒……
　　Kawabe: But at that time I don't think that was studying you know!
　　川边：但是那时我并不认为那是在学习！
　　Todd: Yeah, it was fun! So you enjoyed it!
　　托德：对，那很有意思！你很享受！
