今天的這段對(duì)話(huà)，在討論津巴布韋，

談一談在津巴布韋的生活，在那能看到什么動(dòng)物

來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:

A: OK, Leath, you're from Zimbabwe. Could you talk about that?

好的，利思，你來(lái)自津巴布韋。你能和我們講兩句嗎？

B: Yeah, OK. Well, I'm from Harare, which is the capital of Zim. And I was born there. My folks are British. My dad is from Manchester and my mom is from Scotland. They went out a long time ago. And, yeah, growing up in Zimbabwe was "lacker" as we say there. That means really cool in Africans. It was like, you grow up in an open free place with animals and sunshine and it's just a really healthy place to be. Well at least it was. Today it's not doing to well because the economy has crashed, but growing up there was really slick.

好的。我來(lái)自津巴布韋的首都哈拉雷。我在那里出生。我家都是英國(guó)人。我父親來(lái)自曼徹斯特，我母親來(lái)自蘇格蘭。他們很久前就過(guò)世了。在津巴布韋長(zhǎng)大被稱(chēng)為“拉克爾”，也就是很酷的非洲人。就好像是你成長(zhǎng)在一片自由的土地，有動(dòng)物陪伴，陽(yáng)光沐浴，這里真的是一塊利于健康成長(zhǎng)的土地。事實(shí)正是如此。因?yàn)榻?jīng)濟(jì)崩潰，現(xiàn)在津巴布韋的情況并不好，但在這里長(zhǎng)大真的很棒。

A: Wow! What animals could you see?

哇！你都能看到什么動(dòng)物？

B: Ah, just about an hours drive out of any city, you are liable to come across just about anything. I've seen leapords often at night about an hour out of the capital where I live. You see monkeys along the road, right up to the city outskirts. In certain areas you'll have to stop for elephants. There's quite a few buck warning signs because they are actually quite dangerous at night. They jump across the road and your cars hit them at windscreen height. It is a bit of a problem. So, there's buck everywhere. And then away from residential areas, there's you know your big five, rhino, lion being the most... well interesting and I guess for foreigners. They are never really never around human settlement cause they are very very dangerous. They do take people from time to time.

在津巴布韋只要一個(gè)小時(shí)的車(chē)程，你就可以去任何地方，做任何事情。我曾經(jīng)在晚上花一個(gè)小時(shí)離開(kāi)我住的市區(qū)去看豹子。你能在街邊看到猴子，就在城市的郊區(qū)。在一些特定的區(qū)域你要停下等待大象經(jīng)過(guò)。那里有一些牌子警示人們，因?yàn)榇笙笤谝归g是很危險(xiǎn)的。他們會(huì)跨越馬路，車(chē)的擋風(fēng)玻璃會(huì)撞在大象腿上。這是一個(gè)很?chē)?yán)重的問(wèn)題，所以隨處可見(jiàn)告示牌子。離開(kāi)了居民區(qū)，你就能看到許多動(dòng)物了，犀牛和獅子是最常見(jiàn)的，我猜外來(lái)游客一定會(huì)覺(jué)得很有趣。它們是你在居民區(qū)附近絕不會(huì)看到的，因?yàn)樗鼈兌挤浅ＮｋU(xiǎn)。有時(shí)他們會(huì)襲擊人致死。

A: Wow! That's fascinating. Thanks a lot B.

哇！這太棒了。謝謝你。

B: You're welcome buddy! OK.

不客氣。
