瓦萊里婭：我很好，你呢，丹尼爾，你好嗎?

Daniel: Very well thanks. I have a question for you.

丹尼爾：非常好，謝謝你。我有個問題要問你。

Valeria: OK, tell me.

瓦萊里婭：好，問吧。

Daniel: Since you're from Argentina, I'd have to ask you about soccer.

丹尼爾：你來自阿根廷，所以我想問和足球有關的問題。

Valeria: Yes, sure. What do you want to know about soccer?

瓦萊里婭：好啊。有關足球你想知道什么?

Daniel: Argentina is really famous for soccer.

丹尼爾：阿根廷的足球運動非常出名。

Valeria: Right.

瓦萊里婭：對。

Daniel: Because I've seen it from the news but I don't have the feeling or I don't really know how Argentinian people live football.

丹尼爾：這是我在新聞里看到的，可是我沒有這種感覺，我真的不知道阿根廷人這么熱愛足球。

Valeria: OK, let me tell you that for us, football is something like natural.

瓦萊里婭：好，我來跟你說一下，對我們來說，足球就像自然一樣。

Daniel: What do you mean by that?

丹尼爾：這是什么意思?

Valeria: It's like when especially if you are a boy, when you come back from school after having lunch what we do is like going with your friends to play soccer on the street.

瓦萊里婭：尤其是孩提時代，吃完午飯從學?；貋硪院螅覀兿矚g和朋友在街上踢足球。

Daniel: On the street?

丹尼爾：在街上?

Valeria: Yes. Like this, meaning that everybody has the experience of playing soccer.

瓦萊里婭：對。就是說所有人都有踢球的經(jīng)歷。

Daniel: Yeah, I have it myself too. I used to do that when I was a kid.

丹尼爾：好。我也踢過球。我小時候也踢過。

Valeria: So meaning that in Chile it's kind of the same?

瓦萊里婭：你是說智利也是這樣的嗎?

Daniel: Yeah, I think you, since you can run and kick the ball, I mean everyone practice football or soccer.

丹尼爾：對，奔跑、踢球，所有人都在練習踢球。

Valeria: How about the teams?

瓦萊里婭：那球隊呢?

Daniel: What about them?

丹尼爾：球隊怎么了?

Valeria: How you choose a team in your country?

瓦萊里婭：你怎么在你們國家選擇一個支持的球隊?

Daniel: That's, I think that's an issue. You have to choose just one team basically.

丹尼爾：這是個問題。你只能選擇一個球隊。

Valeria: What do you mean just one team?

瓦萊里婭：只能選一個是什么意思?

Daniel: You can't support several teams, it's just one.

丹尼爾：你不能支持很多球隊，只能支持一個球隊。

Valeria: I see and it should be the same through all your life or can we, or you can change?

瓦萊里婭：我明白了，就是一生中只能支持一個球隊，可以改變支持的球隊嗎?

Daniel: OK, you can change but it's not really, it's not allowed actually by your friends or your family.

丹尼爾：可以，不過你的朋友和家人不會允許你這么做。

Valeria: Sorry, does anybody change team?

瓦萊里婭：抱歉，那有人改為支持別的隊嗎?

Daniel: I've seen some people who have changed but they're not really like into soccer. If you're really into soccer you would never change it and not because of your group or not because of society, because if you're really into football that's if you choose a team, that's the team you support forever.

丹尼爾：我知道有些人改變了支持的球隊，不過他們不太喜歡足球。如果你真的很喜歡足球，你不會更改你支持的球隊，這并不是因為你所在的社交圈子，而是因為你真的很喜歡足球，如果你選擇支持一個球隊，那那支球隊就是你會永遠支持的球隊。

Valeria: Because in Argentina it is said there are two things that you cannot change, your mum and your team.

瓦萊里婭：在阿根廷，人們說有兩件事不會改變，你的母親和你支持的球隊。

Daniel: OK, that's good.

丹尼爾：好，這很好。

Valeria: No matter how bad things are for your team, you have to support, you will support the same team all your life.

瓦萊里婭：無論你支持的球隊情況有多糟糕，你也必須要繼續(xù)支持他們，你一生都只能支持這支球隊。

Daniel: Yeah, we don't have that saying in Chile but I think it's pretty much the same. You shouldn't change your team.

丹尼爾：好，我們智利并沒有這種說法，不過我想智利的情況也是一樣的。你不應該更改你支持的球隊。
