地道美語聽力播客948：再恐高，也沒招！

Christine: Help me! I’m going to fall!

克里斯汀娜：幫我!我要掉下去了!

Asahi: You’re not going to fall. I’ve got you.

朝日：掉不下去，我抓著你。

Christine: Sorry, I have a fear of heights. I sometimes have panic attacks when I’m high up off the ground.

克里斯汀娜：抱歉，我恐高。 我有時離開地面的時候會有恐慌癥。

Asahi: Okay, but we’re not very high up.

朝日：好，可是我們現(xiàn)在的位置還不是很高。

Christine: I know. My phobia is totally irrational.

克里斯汀娜：我知道，我恐高總是這么無厘頭。

Asahi: That explains a lot, like why you live on the ground floor of your apartment building and why you didn’t want to go hiking near the cliffs.

朝日：恩，這下我明白了,為什么你住在公寓一樓,為什么不想去懸崖附近遠足。

Christine: That’s right. I try to avoid any situations that will trigger my fear.

克里斯汀娜：沒錯。我試圖盡量避免任何會引發(fā)恐懼的情況。

Asahi: So how do you travel? Do you ever fly?

朝日：那你如何旅行呢?坐過飛機嗎?

Christine: The one time I flew in an airplane I experienced vertigo and I hyperventilated until we landed. I was really agitated because I thought I was going to die. It wasn’t pretty. That’s why I normally drive or take a train.

克里斯汀娜：有一次我在飛機上經(jīng)歷了眩暈，直到降落我還不斷喘粗氣。我當(dāng)時非常激動，還以為我會死。那可不是什么光彩的事。我這就是為什么我通常都會選擇開車或者搭乘火車。

Asahi: So I’m guessing no skydiving for you.

朝日：我猜你肯定也不敢跳傘。

Christine: Not unless you want to find out how my stomach reacts to heights!

克里斯汀娜：除非你想知道我的胃是對高度做出什么反應(yīng)!
