聽力每日練習 listen 4396 Do you read a lot

2-- Yeah, that's right.

1-- So, do you read a lot?

2-- Yeah, I read a lot. In fact I don't have a television.

1-- Ah, you're the man.

2-- Seriously, I only read.

1-- Wow, how many books do you get through a week?

2-- A week! Ah, at least one a week, because I work all the time.

1-- Oh, that's pretty good.

2-- Yeah, but I enjoy reading because television doesn't give you imagination, yeah I prefer reading.

1-- Yeah, I hear you. It rots your mind, I think. Ah, also, what kind of books you like to read? What kind of genres?

2-- Well, let's see, I've got a lot of nonfiction, a lot of comedy.

1-- Cool, so actually, when you read, like where do you normally read?

2-- Where do I normally read? On the trains, actually. I'm always reading on the trains. I read because I'm always traveling to work. A lot of pleasure. And it's funny because I meet people on the trains when I'm reading, they look over at my book.

1-- That's cool. I love to read on the trains.

譯文：

1--嘿，Mark，我那天看見你在那兒讀書。

2--是，那是我。

1--那么，你經(jīng)常閱讀嗎？

2--是的，我經(jīng)常閱讀。事實上，我連一部電視機都沒有。

1--啊，你真厲害。

2--說真的，我只閱讀。

1--哇，那你一個星期要讀多少本書呢？

2--一個星期！啊，一個星期至少要讀一本書，因為我一直在工作。

1--哦，那相當不錯。

2--是啊，但是我享受閱讀，因為電視不能給你想象空間，因此我更喜歡閱讀。

1--嗯，你說的很對。我認為閱讀在腐蝕你的思想。對了，你喜歡看哪種類型的書呢？哪種體裁的呢？

2--嗯，我想想。我讀過很多非小說類作品和喜劇作品。

1--酷。那，當你閱讀的時候，你通常都在哪里呢？

2--通常在哪里閱讀？其實，一般都在火車上。我經(jīng)常在火車上閱讀。我閱讀是因為我總是要上班。其樂無窮。同時那也很有趣，因為當我在火車上閱讀的時候，會遇見很多人，他們會翻看我的書。

1--那很酷。我會愛上在火車上閱讀的。
