今天的这段对话，在讨论小提琴，
你是怎么练习小提琴的？小时候怎么看待小提琴
来听今天的讲解:
A: OK, Adrienne, let's talk about abilities. What are you good at?
好的，埃德里安娜，我们谈谈能力吧。你擅长什么？
B: Um, I don't know.
嗯，我不清楚。
A: You don't know?
你不清楚？
B: I really don't know!
我真的不知道！
A: Well, I was looking at your photos, and you can play the violin.
嗯，好吧，我在看你的照片，你会拉小提琴。
B: That's true!
没错！
A: And you can sing very well.
而且你歌也唱得非常好。
B: Ah, I can sing some.
嗯，我可以唱些歌。
A: OK, so, tell us about playing the violin.
好，那跟我们谈谈小提琴的事情吧。
B: I really enjoy playing the violin. I've been playing for many, many years since I was a little girl and everyone in my family plays an instrument so it's part of what we do together as a family.
我非常喜欢拉小提琴。我已经练了很多年，从小时候开始练的，我家里所有人都会演奏一种乐器，所以这是我们一家人一起做的事情。
A: So when you were little you practiced every day?
那你小时候每天都练习吗？
B: I did. My mom made me. I didn't have a choice. It's good for discipline though, or at least that's what she told me.
没错。我妈妈让我这样做。我没有选择。虽然这对训练有帮助，至少我妈妈是这么告诉我的。
A: So, how would you practice? Did you have a tutor come over to your house?
那你怎么练习呢？你们请了指导老师去你家授课吗？
B: No, I had a violin teacher once a week and when I was really small I went to group lessons also, so it was once a week with a private and once a week with a group.
不，我有一个小提琴老师，每周上一次课，我很小的时候去上小班课程，所以当时是私人老师一周上一次课，小班课程一周上一次。
A: Wow! That's a lot. What did you think about the violin when you were little?
哇！课很多啊。你小时候怎么看小提琴？
B: I don't remember thinking about it. I don't even remember learning how to play. I was only two so (so young) I know. I was still in diapers, but my mom said that when I had my first recital that I really wanted to play in the recital and she said I absolutely could not play on stage in a diaper so that's basically how she got me out of my diapers. So she says!
我不记得我怎么看它了。我甚至不记得学习演奏的情景。我当时只有两岁（好小啊），我知道。我当时还穿着尿布呢，不过我妈妈在我第一次参加演奏会时说，我非常想在演奏会中表演，而她说，我绝对不能裹着尿布在舞台上演奏，所以她说她就是那样让我摆脱尿布的。她就是那么说的！
A: When did you stop playing?
你什么时候不再演奏小提琴了？
B: I haven't stopped.
我从没停过。
A: Oh, you still practice.
哦，你仍在练习。
B: I still play although I don't have my violin here in Japan, right now. I'm kind of on a break I guess. I just don't like to carry it around overseas.
我仍在练习，不过目前我在日本并没有小提琴。我想这是种休息吧。我并不想带着它出国。
A: Is it hard to be away from your violin?
离开你的小提琴很难吗？
B: It is sometimes. I miss it. I miss playing with my family too, cause we're kind of like the Van Trapp family, which you know from the movie The Sound of Music.
有时。我会想它。我很想念和家人一起演奏的感觉，因为我们有点像冯·特普一家，你知道就是电影《音乐之声》中的那个家庭。
A: No, no, I don't. I've never seen the movie.
不，不，我不知道。我没看过那部电影。
B: Oh, you haven't? The Sound of Music is about a family in, I think it's Austria and they all play an instrument or sing and it's a World War II movie and that's how they escape the Nazis, from singing or something. It's kind of like that, except for without the war.
哦，你没看过吗？《音乐之声》是一个有关奥地利家庭的故事，他们所有人都会演奏乐器或者会唱歌，背景是第二次世界大战期间，讲的是他们如何通过唱歌逃离纳粹的故事。我们有点像那个家庭，当然我们并没有遇到战争。
A: Well, I have to see the movie so!
嗯，我一定要看看这部电影！
B: Yeah, you should.
对，你应该看看。
A: So are you going to play the violin for me sometime?
那你有时间可以为我演奏小提琴吗？
B: Sure! If you can find a violin I will.
当然！如果你能找到一部小提琴，我会演奏的。
