今天的这段对话，在讨论保龄球，

你的保龄球比赛打得怎么样？为什么保龄球会这么流行

来听今天的讲解:

A:So, Joel, how was the bowling match?

乔尔，你的保龄球比赛打得怎么样？

B:Not bad, I won the first one but I lost the second one.

挺好，我第一局赢了但却输掉了第二局。

A:Yeah. How's your arm feeling?

哦。那你的胳膊怎么样了？

B:Not bad. My hands are a little tired but my arms' fine.

不错。我的手虽然有点累但胳膊还好。

A:OK, so, are you going to go home and put some ice on it or?

好的，那你准备回家用冰敷还是？

B:No, I don't think so. I think I need to get a beer.

不，我不这么认为。我认为我需要一瓶啤酒。

A:A beer. OK, actually as soon as we finish this I'll be right with you. Why is bowling so popular do you think?

一瓶啤酒。好的。事实上等我一弄完这个我就跟你一块儿去。你说为什么保龄球会这么流行呢？

B:It's cheap and you can spend as much time here as you want. That's what I like about it. I noticed like, we can sit there and talk and we're not under a time limitor anything. We can just take our time. And you don't need any special skills to play it. Anybody can do it.

这项运动很便宜而且只要你想在这儿玩多久都可以。这就是我会喜欢它的原因。我发现像，我们可以坐在那儿聊天，完全不受时间或其他的限制。我们可以慢慢来。而且打保龄球不需要任何特殊的技巧。任何人都可以玩。

A:Yeah. How long have you been bowling?

恩。你打保龄球多久了？

B:Not long. Maybe I've only been ten or fifteen times in my whole life.

不是很长时间。大概只打过十或十五次。

A:Oh, really. (Yeah) Well you look pretty good for only ten or fifteen times.

哦，是嘛。仅仅是十或十五次你就打得相当不错了。

B:Not so good.

也不是很好。

A:OK.Thanks a lot, Joel.

好的，非常感谢。

B:Thanks.

谢谢。
