Y: 今天我和Marc, Patrick一起看冰球比赛。


M: Thanks for inviting 1 me to this hockey game Yang Chen.


P: Yeh. How did you ever get tickets to the Stanley Cup?


Y: Well, I could tell you, but then I would have to kill you.


M: Never mind, I don't want to know that bad. But I'm surprised that you are a hockey fan.


Y: I'm not exactly a hockey fan. 我其实不太懂冰球。


M: Oh, I think you are just being modest.


P: Believe me. She is not being modest.


Look! Our team just scored!


Y: 为什么每个人都往冰场扔帽子?


M: Because that player just scored a hat-trick.


Y: Hat-trick? 有人变魔术?


M: There is no magician 2. It means 3 one player scores three goals in one game. When that happens, everybody throws their hat on the ice.


Y: 噢,有一个队员进三个球,我们就说他scored a hat-trick。


Quick, give me your hat! I'm going to throw it.


P: No way! Throw your own.


M: OK. You can have mine.


Y: I have another question. 刚才一个队有五个队员,另一个队有四个。太不公平了。


M: That's because the first team was on a power play.


Y: What is a power play?


M: If a player breaks a rule, he has to sit in the penalty 4 box. So the other team has an extra player and is on a power play.


Y: 犯规的队员要坐到受罚席,另一个队就是on a power play, 比对方多一个人,所以实力更强。


I have another question.


M: Yang Chen, now I realize you really know very little about hockey.


P: She knows very little about any sport.


Y: That's not true. I can play Mahjong.


P: Like I said, you don't know anything about any sports, because Mahjong isn't a sport.
