地道美語聽力播客706: 體育中的優(yōu)勢（雙語）

Tammy: What are you doing this year to give your team an advantage?

湯米：這一年你會做些什么來讓你的隊伍處于優(yōu)勢?

Phillip: I have a few tricks up my sleeve. We’re going to have a winning season.

菲利普：我有一些巧計。這一賽季我們會贏。

Tammy: Are you going to start Wang?

湯米：你打算從王開始?

Phillip: No, I’m redshirting Wang. I want him to sit out his first year so he can sharpen his skills.

菲利普：不，我打算讓王當(dāng)紅衫運動員(退出校代表隊競賽一年，以便提高技術(shù)再歸隊的回歸運動員)。第一年不讓他參加比賽，讓他再磨練一下技能。

Tammy: I’m really surprised. Wang is already a great player and too good to sit on the bench.

湯米：我很驚訝，王已經(jīng)是很優(yōu)秀的隊員了，太優(yōu)秀以至于需要在場外坐冷板凳。

Phillip: Trust me, I know what I’m doing. He’ll get an extra year of eligibility and be even better next year.

菲利普：相信我，我知道自己在做什么。他將獲得額外一年的資格，來年他會做的更好。

Tammy: If you say so. What about Schwartz?

湯米：如果你這么說，那史華茲怎么辦呢?

Phillip: He’s out for the season. He’s hurt and won’t be able to play.

菲利普：他不參加賽季比賽，他受傷了，不能參加比賽。

Tammy: That’s a major blow! He’s your star player, right?

湯米：那真是一大問題，他是你的最佳球員，對嗎?

Phillip: He’s a loss, but I have a secret weapon.

菲利普：他是我們一大損失，但是我有秘密武器。

Tammy: Oh, yeah?

湯米：哦，是嗎?

Phillip: This new player, Pierre, is going to give the other teams a run for their money.

菲利普：這是新隊員——皮爾，他是個很具挑戰(zhàn)性、難應(yīng)對的球員。

Tammy: Who is he?

湯米：他是誰?

Phillip: Just somebody I recruited. Let’s just say he’s talented beyond his years.

菲利普：他是我新招募的隊員，他的天賦過人，超過他那個年紀(jì)應(yīng)該有的能力。

Tammy: Huh? You mean he’s a ringer? You’re bringing in a ringer?

湯米：嗯?你是說他是個替身隊員?你招進(jìn)來一個替身隊員?

Phillip: Of course not. He’s just a little more experienced than my other players and he’ll be a force to be reckoned with.

菲利普：當(dāng)然不是，他只是比其他隊員更多一點經(jīng)驗，他將會是很強勢的力量。

Tammy: Only if nobody catches on.

湯米：除非沒人知道會發(fā)生什么。

Phillip: Catches on to what?

菲利普：發(fā)生什么問題?
