　　聽力內(nèi)容：

　　Ryan跟自己的好朋友Alice學習打籃球。今天，Alice帶Ryan去看球賽，好讓他學學比賽規(guī)則。

　　Professor: That's right, Winnie. Alice is taking Ryan to watch a basketball game, but it's not a professional game like you might think.

　　不是職業(yè)賽？那是什么比賽呢？

　　Ryan: Alice, I can't believe you brought me to a children's basketball game! How can I learn how to play basketball watching children?

　　Alice: Well, Ryan, you're a beginner, and they are beginners too. That will make it easier for you to understand the rules.

　　Ryan: Ugh ... I guess so. But watching kids is so boring. The professional basketball league is much better.

　　Alice: OK Ryan, stop complaining and watch what's happening on the court.

　　啊？原來Alice帶 Ryan去看兒童籃球賽啦!

　　Professor: I know it sounds silly, but why does Alice say she brought him there?

　　Alice 說，Ryan是beginner - 初學者，所以，看和他水平差不多的人打球，能更好地了解比賽規(guī)則。對了， professor, Ryan 說 professional basketball league，是指職業(yè)籃球聯(lián)盟么？

　　Professor: Right, and in baseball, you might hear about the major leagues and minor leagues.

　　對，在棒球中， major league就是“大聯(lián)盟”，而minor league是“小聯(lián)盟”。讓我們來聽聽，在basketball court--籃球場上，比賽進行地如何吧!

　　Ryan: Alright Alice, let's watch the game. Which team are we rooting for?

　　Alice: We are rooting for the home team because my nephew is playing for them.

　　Ryan: Oh, cool! Does he really like to play basketball with the other kids?

　　Alice: Oh yeah, these team sports really build their confidence. This is a big game, because they are playing their rivals.

　　原來，Alice的侄子就在球場上! 他是home team - “主場球隊”的一員，Professor, 和“主場”相對的是“客場”，這要怎么說呢？

　　Professor: The opposite of the home team is the visiting team. Most people at the game root for the home team.

　　沒錯！比賽時，主場隊總是人氣更旺! 大部分觀眾都root for it--給主場球隊加油助威。那么，root for除了表示在賽場上支持某只球隊外，還有別的用法么？

　　Professor: Sure! For example, I am really rooting for the new law to pass, because it would lower my taxes.

　　哦，root for表示“支持”，所以我們可以說，root for the new law - 支持這條新的法律。Professor, Alice還提到，這兩只隊伍是rivals - 這是“勁敵，對頭”的意思么？

　　Professor: That's right!

　　Ryan: Wow, these kids are really good! I can't believe how athletic they are.

　　Alice: Yeah, my nephew practices a lot. He's the captain of the team.

　　Ryan: He's the captain? He must be the best player on the team. When I was his age, the only sports I played were sports video game.

　　Alice: Hmm .... well I'm sure playing all those sports video games really gave your fingers a good workout.

　　怪不得Ryan籃球打得這么臭，他小時候從不運動，唯一的愛好就是play sports video games--在游戲機上玩兒運動游戲!

　　Professor: Right. And what about Alice's nephew? Is he more athletic than Ryan was?

　　當然了! Alice的侄子是籃球隊的captain--隊長，他特別 athletic - 愛運動!

　　Ryan: My gosh, Alice, these kids are half my age, and they are so much better at basketball than me!

　　Alice: Don't get discouraged; with lots of practice, you will be as good as them one day.

　　Ryan: I don't have that much dedication. Man, getting in shape is so much work!

　　Alice: Well, you don't have to play basketball. There are lots of other ways to get in shape. Do you have any other ideas?

　　Ryan: Mmm ... Actually, I have a great idea!

　　看著小孩子籃球打得比自己強那么多，Ryan有點覺得discouraged - 泄氣了。他不想打籃球了，想用另外一種方法來鍛練身體，保持體形。不知道他有什么好主意？

　　Professor: Well, listen next time to find out!

　　這次的美語三級跳就播送到這里。
