今天的這段對(duì)話，在討論俄勒岡州，
 
俄勒岡州的人與鄰居加州、華盛頓州的人相處怎么樣
 
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
 
A: So where are you from?
 
你來(lái)自哪里？
 
B: I'm from Oregon. It's right above California. It's on the West Coast of America.
 
我來(lái)自俄勒岡州。俄勒岡州位于加利福尼亞州北面。是美國(guó)西海岸的一個(gè)州。
 
A: So the State of Oregon.
 
俄勒岡州。
 
B: It's on the West Coast between California and Washington.
 
是美國(guó)西海岸的一個(gè)州，位于加州和華盛頓州之間。
 
A: So you're neighbor states, say California in the south, do you guys get along? Are you good neighbors?
 
加州在俄勒岡州的南面，這兩個(gè)是相鄰的州，你們兩個(gè)州的人相處的好嗎？你們是相處不錯(cuò)的鄰居嗎？
 
B: Well, we get along a little bit with Northern California. They have similar thinking. But Souther California, they kind of have different thinking. They think a bit more about money. And also, they are moving a lot up into Oregon, and they have different thinking and they are moving into Oregon and they are kind of changing things.
 
我們和北加州的人相處的不錯(cuò)。我們有相似的想法。不過(guò)南加州的人和我們有不同的想法。他們更看重錢(qián)。而且他們中有很多人搬到了俄勒岡州居住，因?yàn)樗麄兊南敕ú煌运麄儼醽?lái)以后，改變了一些事情。
 
A: So do you get a lot.... are you patriotic towards your own state of Oregon?
 
那你們……你們愛(ài)你們的家鄉(xiāng)州俄勒岡州嗎？
 
B: A little bit. We just like to keep things the way they are just a little bit. Californians move up because they can sell their homes in California for a lot of money. They move up there and then they tend to be more conservative.
 
有點(diǎn)。我們希望維持現(xiàn)狀?？墒羌又萑税崃诉^(guò)來(lái)，他們高價(jià)賣(mài)出了他們?cè)诩又莸姆孔印Ｋ麄儼醽?lái)俄勒岡州生活，他們更保守一些。
 
A: So, if I was to meet you and call you a Californian, would you get mad at me?
 
如果我見(jiàn)到你以后稱你是加州人，你會(huì)不會(huì)生我的氣？
 
B: I wouldn't get mad at you, no. I would think that he must think I was from Northern California.
 
我不會(huì)生你的氣。我會(huì)想你一定是認(rèn)為我來(lái)自北加州。
 
A: So do the Californians feel the same way about the people from Oregon? Is that a mutual emotion to dislike the Oregon people as well?
 
那加州人也和俄勒岡州人持一樣的想法嗎？加州人會(huì)不會(huì)也不喜歡俄勒岡州人？
 
B: I don't think so because there's been a lot of them moving up. You know they move up there to retire and they move their kids up there, so I think they like Oregon and Oregonians tend to be pretty friendly.
 
我不這么想，因?yàn)橛泻芏嗳税岬蕉砝諏輥?lái)生活。他們?cè)谕诵莺蟀醽?lái)俄勒岡州，也會(huì)把孩子帶過(guò)來(lái)，所以我認(rèn)為他們喜歡俄勒岡州，而且俄勒岡州人一向很友好。
 
A: And how about the North, your northern neighbor? Washington?
 
那你們北邊的鄰居呢？華盛頓州怎么樣？
 
B: Washington and Oregon are pretty similar as far a culturally.
 
華盛頓州和俄勒岡州在文化上很相似。
 
A: So if I call you a Washington — if I say your are from Washington you don't mind as much as being called Californian?
 
那如果我說(shuō)你來(lái)自華盛頓州，你是不是不會(huì)像被稱為加州人那樣介意？
 
B: Ah, that's true. Yeah, that's for sure.
 
嗯，沒(méi)錯(cuò)。的確是這樣。
