Y: 各位聽眾好,我是楊晨。歡迎您到美語咖啡屋。

J: Hello, I'm Jody. Welcome to American Cafe.

Y: Jody, 你最近忙嗎?

J: Pretty busy.

Y: 你在忙什么呢?

J: You know, work, spending time with my friends, oh don't forget about the tap dance.

Y: 沒錯(cuò)。最近我忽然覺得業(yè)余時(shí)間應(yīng)該學(xué)點(diǎn)什么,你覺得我學(xué)跳舞怎么樣?

J: That's a great idea. What type of dance?

Y: Flamenco!

J: Flamenco!? Did you say Flamenco?!

Y: 沒錯(cuò)。你干嗎那么吃驚,是不是覺得我學(xué)不會(huì)?

J: I'm sure you can learn Flamenco. But Flamenco, F-l-a-m-e-n-c-o. Flamenco comes from the Gypsies, you know.

(Flamenco music)

Y: 吉普賽舞蹈。太好了。

J: Yes, yes. And Flamenco is fiery! Like the Gypsies! And Flamenco, Yang Chen, is full of passion and excitement!

Y: 等一等,你冷靜一下,不要這么激動(dòng)。 不過仔細(xì)想一想也許你說的對(duì),我可能真的不適合跳這種舞。我看我還是放棄吧。

J: I have an idea. Listen to what my friend Marlene has to say about Flamenco. Marlene, take it away:

實(shí)錄1 Marlene: I'm Marlene English and this DC Dance Collective. And I am a Flamenco Dancer. I take classes here at DC Dance. Flamenco is probably different from mostly anything that you ever see. It is very, first, it's very fast. It's very loud. It's very fiery. The clothes alone are wonderful. There are a lot of ruffles and colors and it's very exciting.

Y: 熱情、浪漫、自由、奔放。我就向往這樣的生活! 哎,這個(gè)Marlene學(xué)跳舞有多長時(shí)間了呢?

J: About six years now. And she began studying Flamenco as an adult. She started out in ballet as a child but was deeply drawn to Flamenco when she saw it perform at the age 14.

Y: 她為什么不在小時(shí)候就開始學(xué)呢?

J: Let's hear Marlene explain it.

實(shí)錄2 Marlene: In this country, unfortunately, when I was younger it wasn't available. We did not see much of it. It wasn't very popular and it wasn't well known. I saw it one time when I was 14. And I loved it. But at that time I was in ballet as most American girls are. And I just always wanted to do it. But I wasn't able to ever really find where to do it or how to come to it until I actually was an adult.

Y: 噢,原來她小時(shí)候Flamenco并不流行,所以她一開始學(xué)的是芭蕾,長大以后才有機(jī)會(huì)學(xué)習(xí)Flamenco。

J: Let's listen to Marlene talk more about studying Flamenco:

實(shí)錄3 Marlene: I have been dancing my entire life. I came to Flamenco about 6 years ago. And I have to tell it's one of the hardest things I've ever done. It's a very difficult dance form. It's physically strenuous. What hardest to learn, however, are the complicated rhythms.

Y: 聽她這么一說,我倒真有點(diǎn)擔(dān)心。Marlene都練了這么多年了,還說很難,她還說這種舞蹈的節(jié)奏很難掌握。這是什么意思呢?

J: Maybe the best way to explain is to play some Flamenco music.

(Enter Flamenco music)

Y: 現(xiàn)在我明白了這種音樂的節(jié)奏確實(shí)比別的音樂要快得多。我覺得我光聽這個(gè)音樂我的膝蓋都要軟了。

J: Well nothing worthwhile is easy. Here is Marlene:

實(shí)錄4 Marlene: The challenge is hard but the rewards are wonderful. It is something that is a complete release of passion. You are so consumed by it that's it worth all of that. It's a wonderful reward for all the hard work.

Y: Marlene說的沒錯(cuò)。迎接挑戰(zhàn)才能享受成功的快樂。這個(gè)大道理我是懂,不過如果要吃太多的苦我可要重新考慮考慮。

J: Wait, Yang Chen. Before you say another word, listen to the advice Marlene gives you about Flamenco:

實(shí)錄5 Marlene: If you are interested in trying out Flamenco and doing it, it's great fun. There are great challenges but it is so fun and so rewarding. Don't let it scare you, even if you're older and you haven't danced. Do it anyway. Let your soul be free!

Y: Marlene說得太好了。Flamenco。

J: No, Yang Chen, say it louder!

Y: Flamenco?

J: Flamenco! Repeat after me.

J & Y: Flamenco!!!

Y: 請(qǐng)你給我的靈魂裝上翅膀,讓我自由地飛翔吧!

J: Way to go, my Gypsy Soul Sister!

Y: 哎, Jody, 我怎么受了你的影響,也變得瘋瘋顛顛了。

J: No more talking, it's time to dance. Thank you for joining us on American Cafe!
