Chapter 1 33 Volleyball -- A Team Sport第33章 一项集体运动——排球David:What is your favorite sport?
你最喜欢的运动是什么?
You:My favorite sport is playing volleyball.
我最喜欢打排球。
David:How long have you played volleyball?
你打多久了?
You:10 years on and off. Actually volleyball is a team sport and sometimes we can’t get enough people who also love to play volleyball, to make up a team and pay the fare 2. If you’re by yourself, then it’s not so much fun. It’s only practice … exercise.
断断续续有10年了。排球是一项集体运动,有时候都凑不够人一起打球、分摊费用;但一个人打又没意思,就成了一种练习了。
David:Maybe too individual 3?
太孤单了吧?
You:Well, it’s different from playing with other people. Too boring. I like volleyball because it is a team sport. I can play and communicate with others and we can all enjoy playing the game together.
对啊,自己打不如找人一块儿打,自己打太闷了。我爱打排球就是因为它是集体运动,可以和别人交流,一起享受运动的乐趣。
David:By the way, I heard that the Chinese national volleyball team is one of the best in the world. Is it true?
顺便说一下,我听说中国国家排球队是世界上最棒的,是吗?
You:Yes. Women’s volleyball in particular 4. There was a time they played so well that they won the championship for five times in a row. Lang Ping was the most famous player back then. She was the team captain. She later coached the national team.
中国女排是这样的。有一段时间女排表现极佳,获得五连冠。郎平以前是女排中最出色的队员,也是以前女排的队长。退役后执教中国女排。
David:How about men’s volleyball?
男排怎样呢?
You:Men's volleyball pales when compared with the achievements of the women's. But men are better known 5 for their achievements in basketball, like Yao Ming.
没有女排成绩好。男篮很不错,姚明就是一名很出色的队员。
