I cycle.
我骑自行车。
I didn’t know that! Somehow I hadn’t imagined you as a cyclist.And where’s all your bike gear?
我都不知道!不知怎么,我想不到你骑自行车的样子。你的骑车装备在哪?
Well, I sneak in the mornings, have a shower, and get changed. That’s my bike in the corner over there.
每天早上我偷偷进来,冲个澡,换个衣服。自行车就放在那个角落。
Oh, you’ve got a foldaway bike – which means it folds up so it’s easy to carry or put away. Do you wear lycra, Neil?
哦,你有一辆折叠自行车啊,折叠自行车可以折叠起来,易于携带和存放。那你穿莱卡了吗?
Yes, I do… it’s very comfortable.I wear lycra as often as I can.Lycra by the way is a stretchy fabric used in tight-fitting sports clothes.
当然,穿上非常舒服。只要有机会穿我都穿莱卡。莱卡是紧身运动衣常用的一种弹性纤维。
Well, I’ll have to see if I can catch you on your way into the building– I’m intrigued about this sporty Neil I didn’t know about!
我一定要在你偷偷溜进大楼时抓住你一次。我很好奇你穿运动衣的样子,之前我都不知道。
’Intrigued’ means to be very interested in something. Well, Alice, I’m flattered. And today’s show is about commuting – or travelling between your home and your work.So how did you commute this morning, Alice?
好奇是指对某事感兴趣。爱丽丝,我表示受宠若惊。今天的节目是关于通勤,也就是来往于家和办公室的这段路程。所以今早你是怎么来的呢?
I got the Tube – that’s the subway system here in London, also known as the underground – and it was a nightmare. We stopped in a tunnel for so long that people started talking to each other.
我乘地铁来的,伦敦的地铁系统简直是噩梦。我们在一段隧道里停了好长时间,人们不得不开始互相交谈。
And for those of you who aren’t Londoners, that’s unusual! Do you ever talk to people on the train?
对于你们这些非伦敦人来说,这太不正常了。你之前在火车上有跟其他人聊天吗?
No. People think you’re crazy if you talk to strangers.
没有。和陌生人聊天,其他人会觉得你疯了。
Well, maybe now’s a good time to talk about today’s quiz question, Alice.What question do you have for me?
也许我们现在应该谈一下今天的问题。你准备了什么问题给我?
Alright then. I know you like my questions, Neil. So here we go: What did the word ’commuter’ originally describe? Was it someone who…a) travelled with other people?b) paid a reduced fare to travel?Or c) travelled by train to work?
好吧。我知道你很喜欢我的问题。今天的问题是:’commuter’这个词最初是指什么?a)和其他人一起出行的人?b) 买打折车票出行的人?还是c) 乘火车上班的人?
Oh, that’s easy. I’m going to go for c) travelled by train to work.
这很简单。我选c) 乘火车上班的人。
Well, we’ll find out later whether you’re right or not.Now let’s listen to a commuter in Nairobi who takes a matatu to get to work.These are minibuses used as shared taxis in East Africa. Can you spot a word that means being quick to notice things going on around you?
之后我们再看你回答得是否正确。现在我们听一听在内罗毕乘马踏途(matatu)上班的人怎么说。马踏途是东非一种小型公交,类似共享的士。注意听一个词,表示快速留意周边事物。
When I’m stuck in the matatu there is a lot of strange things happen around you, so you have to be alert in Nairobi. When you open… when you leave your window open somebody can run away with your belongings. You may be speaking… using the phone… somebody just snatch your phone… you may expect the unexpected!
困在马踏途上,周边会有很多奇怪的事情发生。你在内罗毕必须保持警惕。当你窗户开着时,会有人拿着你的东西跑掉。你讲电话时,可能会有人抢走你的手机……你会遇到各种不可思议的事。
The word used by this commuter in Kenya is alert. And in these noisy, crowded buses you need to be alert in case someone runs away with your belongings– belongings are the things that you own.
这个肯尼亚的上班族所说的词是警惕。在嘈杂拥挤的公交上,你必须保持警惕,以防有人拿走你的所有物,也就是你拥有的东西。
