有哪些事是你想做但現(xiàn)在做不到的

今天的這段對話，在討論想做的事，
 
有哪些事是你想做但現(xiàn)在做不到的
 
來聽今天的講解:
 
A: So, Rebecca, let's talk about things we wish could do that we can't do. What is something you wish you could do, that you can't do now?
 
麗貝卡，我們來談?wù)勎覀兿Ｍ龅亲霾坏降氖?。有哪些事是你想做可是現(xiàn)在做不到的？
 
B: I think it would be definitely playing music, like playing a guitar. Some of my friends can just pull out a guitar and start singing and then you have everybody around and it's such a great night. I just wish I could join them and actually, yeah, have fun with that as well, but no, I can't play guitar.
 
那肯定是演奏樂器，彈吉他這樣的事情。我有一些朋友可以邊彈吉他邊唱歌，這會把所有人都吸引到他們身邊去，大家一起度過愉快的夜晚時光。我希望我也能加入，像他們那樣開心地玩，可是我不會彈吉他。
 
A: So, if you could play any instrument, it would be the guitar?
 
如果你能演奏一種樂器，你希望是吉他嗎？
 
B: Yeah. Yeah. I think so. I have played piano and saxophone before but not overly that well.
 
對，沒錯。我希望這樣。我之前彈鋼琴、吹薩克斯，可是都不是很精通。
 
A: Oh, really so you actually had musical training?
 
哦，你以前受過音樂訓(xùn)練？
 
B: Yeah, when I was in high school.
 
對，上高中的時候。
 
A: In the piano and the saxophone?
 
彈鋼琴和吹薩克斯？
 
B: Yep. Yeah. The saxophone was maybe for one or two years and I would love to get back into playing that as well, but they're quite expensive little instruments actually.
 
對，是的。薩克斯我練習(xí)了一兩年，我也想再繼續(xù)練習(xí)薩克斯，不過薩克斯這種樂器非常貴。
 
A: Yeah. Slightly.
 
對，有點(diǎn)貴。
 
B: And then the piano is very large so, you can't really transport that around with you wherever you go.
 
鋼琴太大了，不能隨身攜帶。
 
A: So do you think that if had learned music at a younger age, you would still be with it? Was the problem just that you waited too late in life to start?
 
如果你從小開始接觸音樂，那你現(xiàn)在還會堅持嗎？你是不是覺得你接觸音樂的時間太晚了？
 
B: I don't think so. I think it's more the friends circle that I was with. We weren't really a musical group and the people that I've met now are really musical so you sort of wish maybe if I had kept going I could have joined them now, but I do enjoy listening to them.
 
我不這么認(rèn)為。我認(rèn)為和朋友圈有很大的關(guān)系，以前我接觸的人和音樂沒有關(guān)系，現(xiàn)在我的朋友都會演奏樂器，如果我一直練習(xí)樂器的話，那我現(xiàn)在也可以和他們一起演奏了，不過我很享受聽他們的演奏。
 
A: Well, what about singing? Are you a good singer?
 
那唱歌呢？你唱的好嗎？
 
B: No. Not at all. I don't think I want to be a good singer either cause then everybody would expect you to sing all the time so I just do backup vocals. Really badly.
 
不好，一點(diǎn)兒也不好。我并不想成為好歌手，因為如果你唱歌很好，那其他人就會一直讓你唱歌，我只能做伴唱。我唱得很差。
 
A: Well, I'm the same way. I can't sing at all. OK, so basically you wish you could play the guitar, but you have played the piano and the saxophone before.
 
我和你一樣，我唱的一點(diǎn)兒都不好?；旧蟻碚f，你希望能彈吉他，你之前有彈鋼琴和吹薩克斯。
 
B: Yes.
 
對。
 
A: OK, is there anything else that you wish you could do?
 
好，你還有其他想做的事情嗎？
 
B: To be able to speak maybe a couple languages would be nice.
 
我要是能掌握幾門語言就太好了。
 
A: Yeah, that's a good one. So if you could speak any two languages, what two would you want to speak?
 
對，這個不錯。如果你能說兩種語言，你希望是哪兩種？
 
B: I think Japanese and Spanish.
 
日語和西班牙語。
 
A: Japanese and Spanish.
 
日語和西班牙語。
 
B: Yeah. Yeah. They both sound really interesting and they're both the countries that I would like to go and visit and maybe attempt to work there but you need to be able to speak the language before you can work.
 
對，對。這兩種語言聽起來很有意思，而且這兩個國家也是我想去游覽并工作的地方，在工作之前要先掌握語言。
 
A: Right. That's true. I think if I could choose any two languages I would choose Chinese and Arabic just because both those languages when I hear them they sound so completely impossible to speak, so if you could speak those, that would be pretty amazing.
 
對，沒錯。如果我能選擇兩種語言，那我會選中文和阿拉伯語，因為我覺得這兩種語言的發(fā)音非常難，如果我能掌握這兩種語言，那就太棒了。
 
B: Yeah, definitely. Yeah, Chinese sounds like a hard language.
 
沒錯。中文是很難的語言。
 
A: All those tones.
 
有很多音調(diào)。
