Living for today not tomorrow 活在當(dāng)下
Adam: Hi Sarah.
亞當(dāng):嗨,薩拉。
Sarah: Hi.
薩拉:嗨。
Adam: Today we're talking about bucket list. Things you want to do before you die. Do you have anything?
亞當(dāng):今天我們來談?wù)勥z愿清單。就是你在去世之前想做的事情。你有什么想完成的事嗎?
Sarah: Actually, no. I don't have a bucket list. And the reason why is because I've already done or I'm currently doing the things that I want to do. In addition, I like to live in the now, so like the present, like what's happening. So I really don't think of the distant future very much, just like what's in front of me. For example, I'm going to Singapore soon, in about 10 days. And I'm really looking forward to that and the new adventure and things that I'll get to do there.
薩拉:實(shí)際上,并沒有。我沒有遺愿清單。原因是我已經(jīng)完成了我想做的事情,或者我正在達(dá)成我的目標(biāo)。另外,我喜歡活在當(dāng)下,享受當(dāng)下,享受目前的狀態(tài)。所以我不太考慮遙遠(yuǎn)的未來,只考慮眼下的事情。比如,我10天以后要去新加坡。我非常期待這趟旅行,我期待著新的冒險(xiǎn),期待我在那里要做的事情。
Adam: What sort of things do you have in mind to explore in Singapore?
亞當(dāng):你有想在新加坡體驗(yàn)的事情嗎?
Sarah: First of all, swing dancing. My favorite kind of dance currently is Lindy hop swing dancing. And Singapore is one of the places in Asia that has several swing dance meet-up groups. So I look forward to dancing several of the nights while I'm there, but also trying all of the delicious food and just exploring a country that I've never been to.
薩拉:首先,我要嘗試搖擺舞?,F(xiàn)在我最喜歡的舞蹈就是搖擺舞。新加坡是亞洲其中一個(gè)有擺攤舞聚會(huì)的地方。所以我在新加坡會(huì)有幾個(gè)晚上去跳搖擺舞,當(dāng)然我也會(huì)品嘗當(dāng)?shù)孛朗常谶@個(gè)我沒去過的國家參觀游覽。
Adam: Wow, great. What are some of the things that you have wanted to do in the past that you have accomplished already?
亞當(dāng):哇哦,真不錯(cuò)。那有什么事是你之前想做而現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)完成的?
Sarah: I think living in foreign countries. I've already lived in two foreign countries and I plan on living in foreign countries probably the rest of my life. So that's a big one. And I think just everyday things, like finishing college and getting two master's degrees and being able to support myself. It's all things that are important to me.
薩拉:我想在外國生活。我已經(jīng)在兩個(gè)國家生活過了,我計(jì)劃余生一直在外國生活。這是一件大事。像日常生活、完成大學(xué)學(xué)業(yè)、獲得兩個(gè)碩士學(xué)位、能養(yǎng)活自己,這些對我來說都是重要的事情。
Adam: Yeah. Those are really great things. What are your two degrees in?
亞當(dāng):好。那些都是很重要的事情。你獲得了哪兩個(gè)學(xué)位?
Sarah: My first degree is in teaching English to speakers of other languages. This degree allows me to be able to live in other countries and to teach English. And then my other degree is in global studies. So it's like an inter-cultural degree where I learned about different cultures and religions.
薩拉:我第一個(gè)學(xué)位使我可以教母語非英語的人學(xué)習(xí)英語。這個(gè)學(xué)位讓我能在其他國家生活,可以教授英語。我另一個(gè)學(xué)位是全球研究。這是一個(gè)與跨文化有關(guān)的學(xué)位,我要學(xué)習(xí)不同的文化和宗教。
Adam: That's really great. Have you ever eaten anything exotic or had any really interesting experiences that most people might not have had when you're traveling to these different places and fulfilling your goals?
亞當(dāng):那真不錯(cuò)。你在其他國家,完成你的目標(biāo)時(shí),有沒有吃過大部分人都沒吃過的食物,或是經(jīng)歷過其他人沒經(jīng)歷過的有趣的事情?
Sarah: I've definitely eaten a lot of different things, most of which I'm not really sure what a lot of it was. The strangest probably – jellyfish, maybe. I'd also gotten a chance to ride a lot of different animals. I've ridden a camel, donkey, horse, elephant, and even an ostrich. So that's pretty exciting.
薩拉:我吃過很多美食,其中大部分食物我都不知道是什么。我吃過的最奇怪的食物可能是水母。我還騎過很多動(dòng)物。我騎過駱駝、驢、馬、大象、還有鴕鳥。那令人非常興奮。
Adam: Yeah. That's really interesting. Have you done any other extreme activities?
亞當(dāng):好。那真有意思。你還嘗試過其他極限運(yùn)動(dòng)嗎?
Sarah: Yeah. I've been skydiving before. I've been volcano boarding. I'm trying to think what else I have done. I haven't been bungee jumping. I think that's probably one of the only ones that I haven't done as of right now. But I really have no desire to do that one, so.
薩拉:有。我體驗(yàn)過高空跳傘。我還嘗試過火山滑板。我在想我還嘗試過什么事情。我沒嘗試過蹦極。我想那可能是目前我沒有體驗(yàn)過的運(yùn)動(dòng)之一。不過我并不想體驗(yàn)蹦極。
Adam: Wow. That's great. You've lived a good life.
亞當(dāng):哇哦。不錯(cuò)。你的生活很美好。
Bucket List 遺愿清單
Sarah: So Adam, we're talking about bucket lists, so things that you would like to do before you die. Sowhat's your number one thing on your bucket list?
薩拉:亞當(dāng),我們來談?wù)勥z愿清單,就是你在去世之前想完成的事情。你遺愿清單上的第一條會(huì)寫什么?
Adam: Oh, difficult question. Number one, I'dprobably have to say, oh, skydiving maybe. I'vewanted to do it for a long time. And I went bungee jumping in New Zealand. That was fun but Istill have not yet been sky-diving. And jumping out of the plane just sounds like an awesomeidea to me.
亞當(dāng):哦,這個(gè)問題很難回答。第一條,我可能會(huì)寫高空跳傘。這件事我想做很長時(shí)間了。我在新西蘭玩過蹦極。那很有意思,不過我還沒嘗試過高空跳傘。對我來說,從飛機(jī)上跳下去聽起來非常棒。
Sarah: What other kind of adventure sports have you done?
薩拉:你還嘗試過其他冒險(xiǎn)運(yùn)動(dòng)嗎?
Adam: This summer, I was – what did I do? Sand boarding in Peru. That was fun. When I wasyounger I did a lot of snowboarding and skateboarding. And yeah, I really enjoy extremesports. I ride a motorcycle currently. If I could I'd love to race cars professionally, although Idon't know how good I'd be at it. But it just looks like so much fun.
亞當(dāng):今年夏天,我做了什么來著?我去秘魯玩滑沙了。那非常好玩。我年輕時(shí)還玩過單板滑雪和滑板。我非常喜歡極限運(yùn)動(dòng)?,F(xiàn)在我騎摩托車。如果可以,我想?yún)⒓勇殬I(yè)賽車比賽,雖然我不知道我的水平怎么樣。不過賽車比賽看起來很好玩。
Sarah: Yeah. Well, it's never too late to start something you want to do, so you should add thatto your bucket list. So tell me what else is on your bucket list?
薩拉:好。開始做你想做的事,永遠(yuǎn)都不會(huì)晚,你應(yīng)該把賽車加到你的遺愿清單上。那你的遺愿清單上還會(huì)有什么內(nèi)容?
Adam: I really want to write a book. Be the author of a novel. I'm always in the process ofwriting something down but it never seems to come to complete book type end result. Butmaybe eventually, all of these little things that I have written down will come into a book formand I can publish it and complete my goal.
亞當(dāng):我很想寫一本書。我想成為小說作家。我一直在堅(jiān)持寫作,不過我從來沒完成過一本書。也許總有一天,我隨手寫下的小文章能組成一本書,然后我可以發(fā)表這本書,完成我的目標(biāo)。
Sarah: What kind of things do you write? Like what kind of genre or is that kind of all thesame or do you write many different styles?
薩拉:你寫的是哪種類型的文章?哪種體裁?你寫的文章都是一個(gè)類型的還是不同類型的?
Adam: I wrote a lot of different things. One thing that I write is travel stories from my travelsabroad or anecdotes that I come across when I'm traveling. Recently, I've been writing jokes. I really enjoy watching stand-up comedy and have got kind of inspired from them to writesome stuff down, although I've never really presented it. And I also write, I guess, fantasystories as well. I have a few short stories but it's been difficult for me to try to put them intobook, like a longer version of them. The details are tricky to write down.
亞當(dāng):我寫了很多不同的文章。其中一篇我記述了我在國外旅行時(shí)發(fā)生的趣事。最近我在寫笑話。我非常喜歡看脫口秀,我從脫口秀節(jié)目中得到了一些靈感,所以我把靈感寫了下來,雖然我從來沒有發(fā)表過。我也寫一些奇幻故事。我寫過幾篇小故事,不過對我來說把它們編成書很難,因?yàn)橐獙戦L篇故事??墒羌?xì)節(jié)很難描寫。
Sarah: Wow! That's really interesting. Hopefully, one day, we'll be able to read a book writtenby you.
薩拉:哇哦!那太有意思了。希望有一天我們能看到你寫的書。
Adam: Yeah. That'd be great.
亞當(dāng):好。那就太好了。
Sarah: Yeah. So tell me what else is on your list?
薩拉:嗯。你還會(huì)在遺愿清單上寫什么?
Adam: The other things would be traveling to Europe, which I plan to do hopefully nextsummer, so I can cross that one off the list. I've always wanted to go to Europe especially Italyand Spain. So I'm excited to get that one done. And I'd also really like to go to Africa and go ona safari and see, you know, lions, tigers in the wild, in their natural habitat. I've also heard thatyou could see sharks, Great White sharks in South Africa on the coast. I had some friends thatwent and sat in a cage in the water and had Great White swim by. That sounds like a terrifyingand once-in-a-lifetime experience. I'm terrified of sharks but it would be quite amazing tosee.
亞當(dāng):另外一件我想做的事是去歐洲旅行,我計(jì)劃明年夏天完成這個(gè)目標(biāo),所以我可以把這個(gè)目標(biāo)從清單上劃掉了。我一直很想去歐洲,特別是意大利和西班牙。能完成這個(gè)目標(biāo)讓我非常興奮。我也很想去非洲,想?yún)⒓佑潍C旅行,我想看看野生獅子和老虎,看看他們的自然棲息地。我聽說在南非海岸還能看到大白鯊。我有朋友去南非時(shí),在海邊坐在籠子里觀賞大白鯊游來游去。那聽起來很可怕,但同時(shí)也是千載難逢的經(jīng)歷。我很怕鯊魚,不過我想觀賞鯊魚一定很美妙。
Sarah: Yeah. I am terrified of sharks as well, so I probably will not be adding that to mybucket list. But yeah, I hope you get to do everything that's on your list there.
薩拉:對。我也害怕鯊魚,所以我可能不會(huì)把觀賞鯊魚加到我的遺愿清單中。我希望你能完成你的遺愿清單。
Adam: Thanks. Me too!
亞當(dāng):謝謝。我也是這么希望的!
Dream Time 做夢時(shí)間
Sarah: So do you dream a lot? Do you rememberyour dreams?
薩拉:你經(jīng)常做夢嗎?你還記得你做的夢嗎?
Todd: I usually do. Although, I have to admit, nowthat I'm older, I don't dream so much. It's prettyrare that I have a dream. But I will have dreams ifI'm really stressed or if I'm really sick. So usually, every time I get sick, I notice I'm sick because I have a dream. And I'll wake up in the middleof the night from some crazy dream and then I'll notice, oh wow, I'm sick. So yeah, that'sabout it.
托德:我經(jīng)常做夢。不過我得承認(rèn),現(xiàn)在我年齡大了以后,我不常做夢了?,F(xiàn)在我很少做夢。不過,如果我壓力很大,或者是生病時(shí),我還會(huì)做夢。每次我生病,是因?yàn)槲易隽藟粑也虐l(fā)現(xiàn)我生病了。我會(huì)因?yàn)榀偪竦膲艟吃诎胍贵@醒,然后我就會(huì)意識到,哦,我生病了。就是這樣。
Sarah: That's very interesting.
薩拉:這真有意思。
Todd: Yeah. Although, you know, when I was younger, I used to have all these dreams relatedto work. I guess they were stress related. And the craziest dream was, I was a waiter at a veryfast-paced restaurant, and it was very stressful. And you had to wait on about 10 tables, andpeople would come in and you have to get their food fast. And if you didn't, you'd get yelled atby the boss or the customers would be upset. So I used to have this dream – and this is when Iwas in college, that I would be sleeping and there would be a table in my room and thecustomers would be sitting there watching me sleep, and they would be furious because Iwasn't bringing their food. I was like just sleeping in the bed right next to their table. And itwas the same nightmare I had for – like again and again and again. It was crazy.
托德:對。我年輕的時(shí)候,我做的夢通常和工作有關(guān)。我想那是因?yàn)楣ぷ鲏毫Υ筇?。我做的最瘋狂的一個(gè)夢是,我在一家快餐廳當(dāng)服務(wù)員,那個(gè)工作壓力非常大。你要為10個(gè)餐桌服務(wù),客人進(jìn)來以后,你要快速為他們點(diǎn)餐上菜。如果做不好,那老板就會(huì)罵你,或者客人會(huì)生氣。我以前會(huì)做這種夢,我上大學(xué)的時(shí)候,我房里里有個(gè)桌子,而我睡覺的時(shí)候,客人會(huì)坐在桌子那里看著我睡覺,他們非常生氣,因?yàn)槲覜]有給他們上菜。而我就在他們餐桌旁邊的床上睡著了。我一次一次地夢到這種可怕的情況。非常瘋狂。
Sarah: That's really interesting. And kind of funny, too.
薩拉:這很有趣。有意思。
Todd: Yeah, I know. And it's weird how you have the same recurring dream. I used to haveanother dream, a nightmare when I was young. And it would be – I was riding a bicycle up likea mountain and the mountain was – like had a path that just kept going around and around themountain. And you had to be really careful or else your bike would fall off the cliff. And then, my bike of course would go off the cliff and I would fall, fall, fall and you would wake up rightbefore you hit the ground. I had that dream many, many times when I was a little kid.
托德:我知道。一直做重復(fù)的夢非常奇怪。我年輕的時(shí)候還做過一個(gè)噩夢。我騎著自行車上山,那座山有條盤山路。你要非常小心,否則你的自行車就會(huì)掉下懸崖。當(dāng)然,我夢到的就是我的自行車掉下了懸崖,我也摔了下去,在我摔到地上以前我就會(huì)醒過來。我小時(shí)候做過很多次這個(gè)噩夢。
Sarah: Wow.
薩拉:哇哦。
Todd: Yeah.
托德:對。
Sarah: Yeah.
薩拉:嗯。
Todd: Do you ever have nightmares or any dreams like that?
托德:你做過噩夢嗎?
Sarah: Yeah. I don't dream very often but I have this one reoccurring dream also where I am inschool and it's at the end of the semester and I suddenly realized that there's one class that Ihaven't been going to the entire semester and I'm going to fail it. So I panic and I'm runningaround like trying to find my professor to like try to figure out what I need to do or what Ineed to study for the final exam so that I don't fail this class. But what's really interestingabout this dream is I found out a few years ago that my father has the same reoccurring dream.
薩拉:做過。我不常做夢,不過我上學(xué)時(shí)也有一個(gè)做過很多次的夢,當(dāng)時(shí)是學(xué)期末,我突然意識到有一門課我一整個(gè)學(xué)期都沒上過,那門課我可能會(huì)過不了。所以我很恐慌,我去找教授,試圖弄清楚我要做些什么,為準(zhǔn)備期末考試、通過這門課我應(yīng)該學(xué)習(xí)什么內(nèi)容。不過這個(gè)夢有意思的地方在于,幾年前我發(fā)現(xiàn)我父親也做過這個(gè)夢。
Todd: Wow. You know, this is going to sound crazy. I've had that dream, too. I've had a dreamof like I registered for a course in college and I never went to the course, and I'm going to getan F. And I don't even remember when I registered or where the class is but I didn't finish theclass. Is that the same dream?
托德:哇哦。這聽起來可能很瘋狂。我也做過那個(gè)夢。我曾夢見我在大學(xué)時(shí)選了一門課,可是我從來沒去上過課,我那門課的成績很可能是F。我甚至不記得我是什么時(shí)候選的課,或者那門課在哪里上,不過我沒有完成那門課。和你的夢一樣嗎?
Sarah: Exact same dream.
薩拉:完全是一樣的。
Todd: Wow. I wonder what it means.
托德:哇哦。我想知道那意味著什么。
Sarah: Me too.
薩拉:我也想知道。
Todd: Maybe there's somebody out there that really knows what it means and they're like, "Uh-oh, those two people are doomed."
托德:也許有人知道這意味著什么,他們可能會(huì)說:“哦,那兩個(gè)人是天生一對。”
Sarah: There must be a lot of people with that dream.
薩拉:一定有很多人做過這樣的夢。
Todd: Yeah. And maybe that's it, like there's certain structures. Like I know that the bikedream that I have about falling off the cliff, I've heard that many people have that. Yeah. Haveyou ever heard about the dream – I had it a couple of times, a dream where you're in class andthen you suddenly notice that you don't have any clothes on and you're afraid that people aregoing to notice you don't have any clothes on?
托德:對。也許存在特定的情況。比如我剛說的那個(gè)自行車掉下懸崖的噩夢,我聽說很多人都做過這樣的夢。我有幾次夢到我在教室里,然后突然發(fā)現(xiàn)自己什么衣服都沒穿,很害怕其他人發(fā)現(xiàn)自己沒穿衣服,你有沒有做過這樣的夢?
Sarah: No, I've never had that one.
薩拉:沒有,我從來沒做過那樣的夢。
Todd: Yeah. That was one when I was really, really little, but yeah.
托德:好。那是我非常小的時(shí)候做過的夢。
Sarah: I've heard that some people – a lot of people have dreams about their teeth falling outand that this means that like they're afraid of losing something in their life.
薩拉:我聽說有很多人夢到自己的牙掉了,這表明他們害怕失去生活中的一些東西。
Todd: Really?
托德:真的嗎?
Sarah: Something that's really important to them.
薩拉:一些對他們來說非常重要的東西。
Todd: Oh wow. So if you're teeth are falling, you're going to lose something.
托德:哇哦。如果夢到牙掉了,那就表示會(huì)失去一些東西。
Sarah: Yeah.
薩拉:對。
Todd: Wow.
托德:哇哦。
Sarah: Or you're afraid of losing something because most people, their teeth are reallyimportant to them.
薩拉:或者是你害怕失去某樣?xùn)|西,因?yàn)閷Υ蠖鄶?shù)人來說,牙非常重要。
Todd: Yeah. Interesting. Well, I don't have any nightmares anymore. It's pretty rare. Howabout you?
托德:對,這很有意思。我現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)不再做噩夢了。我很少做噩夢。你呢?
Sarah: Yeah. Same as me. Thank goodness.
薩拉:我也是。謝天謝地。
Todd: Yeah. Maybe it's just a young thing.
托德:嗯。也許年輕人才會(huì)做夢。
Sarah: Maybe.
薩拉:也許吧。
