老外最想聊的100個(gè)英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)話題（30)：網(wǎng)上聊天

　　Chatting Online 網(wǎng)上聊天

　　dialogue 1

　　Mark: do you have internet in your room?

　　你的房間里能上網(wǎng)嗎?

　　Peter: sure, I am a total internet junkie, I can't survive without internet.

　　當(dāng)然能啊,我是網(wǎng)迷,沒(méi)有網(wǎng)一天都不行.

　　M: really? What do you usually do online?

　　真的嗎?你上網(wǎng)通常都做些什么?

　　P: well, there are a lot of things, like reading news, email, shopping, etc. but mostly I chat online. You could say I'm addicted to online chatting.

　　哦,可以做很多事情,比如說(shuō)讀新聞郵件,網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物等.但是做的最多的還是網(wǎng)上聊天,你可以說(shuō)我我對(duì)網(wǎng)上聊天很過(guò)癮.

　　M: I never chatted online before. What's it like.

　　我從來(lái)沒(méi)在網(wǎng)上聊過(guò)天,網(wǎng)上聊天是什么樣子的?

　　P: well, basically it's similar to face-to-face chat, but you type instead of talk. You should try it at least once.

　　基本上和面對(duì)面聊天沒(méi)什么區(qū)別.不過(guò)網(wǎng)上聊天的時(shí)候,你打字而不是說(shuō)話.你至少應(yīng)該嘗試一次.

　　M: really? Who do you chat with?

　　真的嗎?你都和誰(shuí)聊呢?

　　P: to people all over the world! I have a lot of net pals. See, the magic of internet is that it connects people from all over the world. You can chat with someone thousands of miles away as if they were just next to you. But I also use it to chat with my brother in India and other friends abroad.

　　和全世界的人!我有很多網(wǎng)友.你看,網(wǎng)絡(luò)的神奇之處就在于它把全世界的人聯(lián)系在一起了,即使相隔萬(wàn)里,聊起來(lái)也像近在眼前一樣.不過(guò)我上網(wǎng)也和在印度的弟弟以及其他在國(guó)外的朋友聊.

　　M: that's amazing. I will install an online messenger program when I get home.

　　真不錯(cuò)!我回去以后就下載個(gè)上網(wǎng)聊天的程序.

　　P: well, my suggestion for a newbie like you is that don't get lost in the cyberspace. You know internet won't do the filtration for you, so you still need to use your judgement. There are a lot of people on the internet who might try to take advantage of you.

　　對(duì)于你這樣一個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)新手,我的建議就是千萬(wàn)別在網(wǎng)絡(luò)中迷失自我.你知道網(wǎng)絡(luò)不會(huì)幫你過(guò)濾,所以你還是要有自己的判斷力,網(wǎng)上有很多人可能會(huì)利用你.

　　M: don't worry.

　　別擔(dān)心,沒(méi)事兒.

　　dialogue 2

　　Emily: OMG! It must be so late where you are. What time is it?

　　天啊!你那里一定很晚了,幾點(diǎn)了?

　　Brad: just after 2 am.

　　剛過(guò)凌晨?jī)牲c(diǎn).

　　E: what's wrong? Can't sleep?

　　怎么了,睡不著啊?

　　B: nope, actually I was waiting for you. I have something big to tell you.

　　沒(méi)有,我其實(shí)在等你.我有個(gè)重要的消息要告訴你.

　　E: really? What is it?

　　真的嗎?什么消息?

　　B: I have an offer to work for a company in your city today?

　　我今天收到了你那一家公司的錄用通知.

　　E: I can't believe it! Is it real? You're moving here?

　　真不敢相信.這是真的嗎?你要搬過(guò)來(lái)了嗎?

　　B: I haven't accepted the position yet and with the upcoming holiday I think it's the perfect chance to visit the city and take a good look at the company before deciding. If you have time I think we could get together in person.

　　我還沒(méi)有接受那個(gè)職位,不過(guò)假期就要來(lái)了,我覺(jué)得是個(gè)很好的機(jī)會(huì)去你那里好好看看這個(gè)公司再做決定.如果你有時(shí)間,我們可以真正地見(jiàn)個(gè)面.

　　E: just give me the dates and I'll make sure I'm free. You know after all these chatting online, it will be great to meet you in real life. I look forward to seeing you soon!

　　告訴我具體的日期,我到時(shí)候一定空出來(lái).我們?cè)诰W(wǎng)上聊了這么久,如果能在現(xiàn)實(shí)中見(jiàn)面那就太好了.我期待著早點(diǎn)兒見(jiàn)到你!

　　B: me too. But I think I am going to bed now. my head is getting heavy. Have a nice day there!

　　我也是.不過(guò)我現(xiàn)在要睡覺(jué)了,我的頭開(kāi)始大了.祝你今天過(guò)的愉快!

　　B: talk to you later.

　　下次再聊.
