科克是一座什么樣的城市？科克人有什么特點(diǎn)
來聽今天的講解:
A: Eucharia, can you talk about where you are from?
尤查里亞，你來自哪里？
B: I'm from Ireland and I'm from the second biggest city in Ireland which is Cork. Now the name 'Cork' doesn't come from wine bottle cork, it comes from the irish word 'kirkig' which is 'marsh' so you can imagine how wet Cork is. We have a lot of rain.
我來自愛爾蘭，愛爾蘭的第二大城市科克?？瓶诉@個名字并不是來自紅酒瓶的那個木塞，而是來自愛爾蘭單詞“kirkig”，是濕地的意思，所以你可以想象得到科克有多濕潤。那里雨水豐富。
A: And is Cork a big city?
科克是大城市嗎？
B: It's a sprawling city. Most people live outside of the city and commute and my parents live about a 25 minute walk to the city centre and that's quite normal, so most of the city spreads outwards and the surburbs tend to be quite big and you can get lost quite easily!
是個不斷擴(kuò)張的城市。大多數(shù)人住在市郊，我父母住在離市中心步行約25分鐘的地方，大部分城市都會向外擴(kuò)張，這很正常，所以市郊的范圍非常大，很容易就會迷路！
A: What are the people in Cork like?
科克人有什么特點(diǎn)？
B: Well when I go home its really strange for me because the men in my city speak with a very high pitched accent voice so it sounds very strange to me, and girls tend to speak in a lower voice because a lower voice in Ireland usually means intelligent and most people would like to seem intelligent. However, most people love to laugh in Cork so there is a really good sense of humour: you just walk on the streets and you hear people laughing all of the time. It's great.

A: Oh that's nice. And what would you say is the best thing about your city?
是很好。你認(rèn)為你的家鄉(xiāng)城市最好的事情是什么？
B: The best thing are the people of course, but also the food. The entertainment is just fantastic. Every night you can go out, you can have dinner. After you can go to the theatre, you can go to classical music concerts, you can go to pop concerts, rock concerts. You can go dancing, different types of dancing. Oh I miss dancing! You can do Irish dancing, more Hip hop dancing, disco dancing. Anything is possible any night of the week.
最好的當(dāng)然是科克人，還有食物。科克的娛樂產(chǎn)業(yè)很豐富。每天晚上都有精彩活動，你可以外出吃飯，去劇院，去古典音樂會，流行音樂會，搖滾演唱會等等。你也可以去跳舞，有各種不同種類的舞蹈。哦，我忘了提舞蹈了！你可以去跳愛爾蘭舞，街舞，迪斯科舞等等。每天晚上都可以。
A: Ok and what's the worst thing about your city?
好，那科克最糟糕的事情是什么？
B: The worst thing has to be rain because Cork is such a wet place. We don't have a lot of snow in Cork because when it snows the snow quickly fades away because the ground is made of limestone so I've never seen real snow before, but getting back to the rain, it rains almost non stop from autumn until spring.
最糟糕的就是雨水，因?yàn)榭瓶朔浅駶??？墒嵌斓臅r候科克卻不會有很多積雪，下雪的時候雪會很快融化掉，因?yàn)榈孛娌捎玫脑鲜鞘沂?，所以我以前從來沒有見過真正的雪，接著說雨水，從秋天到春天雨水幾乎就沒停過。
A: Wow, that's a long time!
哇，那真是很長時間啊！
B: So it's a long time having a grey sky over you.
的確是很長時間，而且天空都是灰色的。
A: Still it sounds like a nice place.
不過聽起來那還是個不錯的地方。
