今天的这段对话，在讨论俄勒冈州，
俄勒冈州的人与邻居加州、华盛顿州的人相处怎么样
来听今天的讲解:
A: So where are you from?
你来自哪里？
B: I'm from Oregon. It's right above California. It's on the West Coast of America.
我来自俄勒冈州。俄勒冈州位于加利福尼亚州北面。是美国西海岸的一个州。
A: So the State of Oregon.
俄勒冈州。
B: It's on the West Coast between California and Washington.
是美国西海岸的一个州，位于加州和华盛顿州之间。
A: So you're neighbor states, say California in the south, do you guys get along? Are you good neighbors?
加州在俄勒冈州的南面，这两个是相邻的州，你们两个州的人相处的好吗？你们是相处不错的邻居吗？
B: Well, we get along a little bit with Northern California. They have similar thinking. But Souther California, they kind of have different thinking. They think a bit more about money. And also, they are moving a lot up into Oregon, and they have different thinking and they are moving into Oregon and they are kind of changing things.
我们和北加州的人相处的不错。我们有相似的想法。不过南加州的人和我们有不同的想法。他们更看重钱。而且他们中有很多人搬到了俄勒冈州居住，因为他们的想法不同，所以他们搬来以后，改变了一些事情。
A: So do you get a lot.... are you patriotic towards your own state of Oregon?
那你们……你们爱你们的家乡州俄勒冈州吗？
B: A little bit. We just like to keep things the way they are just a little bit. Californians move up because they can sell their homes in California for a lot of money. They move up there and then they tend to be more conservative.
有点。我们希望维持现状。可是加州人搬了过来，他们高价卖出了他们在加州的房子。他们搬来俄勒冈州生活，他们更保守一些。
A: So, if I was to meet you and call you a Californian, would you get mad at me?
如果我见到你以后称你是加州人，你会不会生我的气？
B: I wouldn't get mad at you, no. I would think that he must think I was from Northern California.
我不会生你的气。我会想你一定是认为我来自北加州。
A: So do the Californians feel the same way about the people from Oregon? Is that a mutual emotion to dislike the Oregon people as well?
那加州人也和俄勒冈州人持一样的想法吗？加州人会不会也不喜欢俄勒冈州人？
B: I don't think so because there's been a lot of them moving up. You know they move up there to retire and they move their kids up there, so I think they like Oregon and Oregonians tend to be pretty friendly.
我不这么想，因为有很多人搬到俄勒冈州来生活。他们在退休后搬来俄勒冈州，也会把孩子带过来，所以我认为他们喜欢俄勒冈州，而且俄勒冈州人一向很友好。
A: And how about the North, your northern neighbor? Washington?
那你们北边的邻居呢？华盛顿州怎么样？
B: Washington and Oregon are pretty similar as far a culturally.
华盛顿州和俄勒冈州在文化上很相似。
A: So if I call you a Washington — if I say your are from Washington you don't mind as much as being called Californian?
那如果我说你来自华盛顿州，你是不是不会像被称为加州人那样介意？
B: Ah, that's true. Yeah, that's for sure.
嗯，没错。的确是这样。
