今天的这段对话，在讨论冰球，
冰球的魅力在哪儿？街头曲棍球和冰球之间有什么区别
来听今天的讲解:
A: OK, Steve you were saying that you're a big hockey fan.
史蒂夫，你说你是冰球的忠实球迷。
B: That's right. I love hockey.
没错。我很爱冰球。
A: OK. Why? What is it about hockey?
嗯。为什么呢？冰球的魅力在哪儿？
B: Well, hockey is a really exciting sport. It's played on the ice. It's really fast. It's aggressive. Also, it requires a lot of skill. It's a really good sport for spectators to watch because there's lots of action. You can watch it at home with friends. Drink beer, eat pizza, and have a really good time. I also like it because I'm Canadian and it's Canada's national sport, and Canada is the best hockey team in the world right now.
嗯，冰球是一项非常刺激的运动。这是一项在冰上进行的运动。它很有进攻性。当然，这项运动要求许多技艺。是一项很适合观众观看的运动，因为有许多动作。你可以在家里和朋友一起看比赛。你们在比赛时可以喝着啤酒，吃着批萨，然后享受快乐时光。我喜欢这项运动因为我是加拿大人，这是加拿大的国球，加拿大的冰球是目前世界最强的。
A: Now Canada has the best hockey team.
加拿大有目前最强的冰球队。
B: That's right. We won the gold medal. We won the world championship. Both the men's and the women's teams.
没错。我们获得了金牌。我们赢得了世界杯。男子和女子都是冠军。
A: Wow, that's pretty cool. In hockey, how long is the game?
哇，那真棒！冰球比赛一般要用多长时间？
B: The game is three twenty minute periods, but because of stoppages in play , it usually takes about two and a half hours for a whole game.
比赛分为三局，每局20分钟，但是因为比赛经常中断，所以通常完成整场比赛要用两个半小时。
A: Oh, OK, and did you play in high school when you were younger?
哦，好的，你以前在高中时打过冰球吗？
B: Ah, no, I'm not that good a skater. You have to be a really good skater, but I played street hockey and floor hockey.
没有，我滑冰不是很好。你必须要滑冰滑得很好才能打冰球，不过我打过街头曲棍球和室内曲棍球。
A: OK, what's the difference between street hockey and ice hockey?
嗯，街头曲棍球和冰球之间有什么区别？
B: Well, it's pretty much the same thing. Street hockey you play on the road or on a tennis court and instead of using a puck you use a hockey ball or a tennis ball.
其实差不多一样。街头曲棍球是在道路上或是网球场上进行的，比赛中不会用冰球，而是用曲棍球或是网球。
A: OK, and do you run or?
好的，那比赛中会奔跑吗？
B: Yeah, you run.
对，会跑的。
A: Oh, you run!
哦，会奔跑！
B: Yeah. It's pretty well the same game.
对。其实差不多是一样的。
A: OK, alright, thanks Steve.
好的，谢谢你，史蒂夫。
