作為慢跑愛好者你多久慢跑一次，通常慢跑多久，在哪里慢跑
 
來聽今天的講解:
 
A: Now, Shona, you said that you jog.
 
夏娜，你說過你有慢跑的習慣。
 
B: Yeah, I do.
 
對，沒錯。
 
A: I'm a jogger too.
 
我也喜歡慢跑。
 
B: Oh, are you? Fantastic. How often do you do it?
 
哦，是嗎？太好了。你多久慢跑一次？
 
A: Well, actually try to go every day.
 
我努力做到每天都慢跑。
 
B: Oh, OK. How long for?
 
好。那慢跑多長時間？
 
A: Between thirty minutes and an hour, depending on the day. And you?
 
30分鐘到1個小時之間，這要取決于當天的情況。你呢？
 
B: It depends on the day as well. Today it was only like half an hour, but I try to get out for an hour, maybe like four or five times a week, but I used to be like a lot fitter and I just realized today that I'm not as fit as I used to be, so I'm probably gonna pump it up a little bit and do a little bit more, but yeah.
 
我也是要看當天的情況而定。今天我只跑了半個小時，不過我會盡量跑1個小時，每周大概慢跑四五次，我想我以前要健康的多，我今天才發(fā)現(xiàn)我不像以前那么健康了，所以我可能會加量，加強鍛煉。
 
A: So you said you're not fit. What happened? Did you stop running?
 
你剛說你健康狀況不太好。你怎么了？你要停止跑步嗎？
 
B: Yeah, I guess like I've not been doing as much as I used to recently cause I used to do more than just jogging. I went to the gym as well. I did yoga. You know it was like more of a varied workout, but when you just stick to like one exercise alone, like, it tends to kind of make your fitness, like, drop a little bit if you are used to doing like a lot more sports.
 
對，我最近的運動沒有以前那么多，以前我除了慢跑以外，還會去健身房，也會做瑜伽。以前我會做多種運動，不過在只做一種運動以后，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)健康狀況會有點下降，因為你已經(jīng)習慣了做更多運動。
 
A: Right.
 
對。
 
B: So I need to vary it a little more.
 
所以我會增加運動方式。
 
A: Well, actually, where do you run? Do you run on the river?
 
你一般去哪里慢跑？沿著河慢跑嗎？
 
B: Yeah, I run down the river. Just along it, to the right-hand side. Just as far as, like fifteen or twenty minutes, and then back.
 
對，我會沿著河跑步。我一般只沿著河的右側(cè)慢跑，大概跑15或20分鐘以后就掉頭再往回跑。
 
A: Actually, there's a really nice park near here that has a really nice running trail.
 
我知道有個公園有條適合跑步的路線。
 
B: Oh, really.
 
哦，真的嗎？
 
A: That I highly recommend. Yeah. But you got to take the train, and it's, you know, a little... it's four stops. You have to pay a little money, but it's worth it.
 
我強烈推薦那里。不過要坐火車過去，有點……要坐四站地。要花些錢，不過很值得。
 
B: Oh, wow. Cool. You'll have to tell me where it is.
 
哦，哇，真酷。你一定要告訴我在哪里。
 
A: Sure. I can draw you a map.
 
當然。我可以畫張地圖給你。
 
B: Oh, OK, cool.
 
哦，好，太酷了。
 
A: How about, when you run, do you have an ipod? Do you listen to music?
 
你跑步的時候會帶著ipod嗎？你會一邊聽音樂一邊跑步嗎？
 
B: Yeah. Of course, I take my MP3 players, and it's like, I could not, like, jog without music. On ocassion, I've went out the door, like to go for a jog, and I've just like, I've not been able to. Like I can't. I need music. Otherwise it's just so boring, and to be honest, you know, like it depends if it's a scenic route, like I can cope without music, like I enjoy listening to the birds or whatever, like it's beautiful or what, but if it's like, in the city, or you know, like... I need my music.
 
當然了。我會帶著MP3跑步，要是不聽音樂我沒法跑步。有時我出門跑步的時候會感覺，我無法跑步，因為我需要音樂。沒有音樂太無聊了，說實話，這也要取決于跑步的路線，如果有鳥鳴的聲音或者那條路線特別美，那我可以不聽音樂，但是如果在城市里跑步，那我就需要音樂。
 
A: Oh, I totally agree. I don't know what I would do without my ipod. —Um, what kind of music to you listen to when you jog?
 
哦，我完全同意你的話。要是不帶著ipod我也沒法跑步。一般你慢跑時都聽哪種類型的音樂？
 
B: When I jog actually, it's different music than I listen to normally cause I like with a heavy beat, so I listen to dance music, or some kind of sixties music or something with lots of melody, and I tend to like longer songs as well because it keeps me going longer. If it's shorter songs then it stops. It keeps stopping. I seem to like lose my pace or something, so I like kind of steady, long beats.
 
我慢跑的時候會聽不同類型的音樂，我喜歡重節(jié)拍音樂，所以我會聽舞曲、六十年代的音樂還有旋律明顯的音樂，另外我喜歡時間長些的歌曲，這樣我可以跑的時間更長些。如果歌曲時長太短，那就會經(jīng)常有停頓，這樣我的節(jié)奏就會被打亂，所以我喜歡平穩(wěn)、節(jié)奏長的音樂。
 
A: Oh, cool, well I'll be sure to get that map to you. You definitely should go jogging in that park. Cool.
 
哦，真酷，我一定要把地圖給你。你一定要去那個公園跑步。很酷。
 
B: Cool. What music do you listen to when you go jogging?
 
太好了。你慢跑時會聽哪種音樂？
 
A: Actually, I listen to also music I normally don't listen to. I listen to more hip-hop. I'm older, you know, I'm 37, but it definitely keeps me going when I run.
 
我會聽我一般不會聽的音樂類型。慢跑時我會聽嘻哈音樂，你知道我已經(jīng)37歲了，不是那么年輕，不過嘻哈音樂會讓我跑步時更有動力。
 
B: Yeah, it's to do with the beat, yeah.
 
對，和節(jié)拍有關(guān)。
 
A: Right, right. especially when I start. Like I need a couple of good songs to keep me going.
 
對，沒錯，尤其是剛開始的時候。我需要一些節(jié)拍強的音樂幫助我堅持下去。
 
B: Totally, so, not yeah.
 
是的。
