實(shí)戰(zhàn)口語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話：流利英語(yǔ) Good English

Todd: Now, Christian, you're English is amazing. Perfect actually.

Christian，你英語(yǔ)說(shuō)的真好，簡(jiǎn)直太棒了。

Christian: Thank you.

謝謝。

Todd: And many people from Norway have excellent English. What is the secret about Norway?

很多來(lái)自挪威的人英語(yǔ)都很棒。到底是有什么秘訣呢?

Christian: I don't know. I actually heard that before that I meet a lot of people and they say,"Oh, you're from Norway.

我不知道。只是之前，我碰到很多人的時(shí)候他們都會(huì)說(shuō)，“哦，你來(lái)自挪威。”

Norwegian people speak such good English. Why is that?"

挪威人能說(shuō)得一口流利的英文。這是為什么呢?

Personally I think it's because we get a lot of exposure to English, through TV, music, media, everything, and we don't dub movies and TV programs like they do in many other countries.

我個(gè)人覺得是因?yàn)槲覀兩L(zhǎng)在英語(yǔ)的大環(huán)境下，電視，音樂(lè)，媒體，一切的一切都是英文的，而且不同于其他國(guó)家，電影以及電視節(jié)目都是沒有配音的。

We get subtitles. And the same with music. English music is very, very popular.

我們有字幕。音樂(lè)也是一樣的。英文歌也是非常流行的。

Probably more popular that Norwegian music, and I guess as well the education system provides us with really good, you know, teaching so, I mean all those combined together, you know, creates, how to say.

也許更出名的是挪威樂(lè)曲，而且我想校方也提供了相當(dāng)棒的音樂(lè)課，所以我的意思是，所有的這些加起來(lái)就造就了我們。恩怎么說(shuō)呢，你知道的。

Todd: Super speakers!

一流的演說(shuō)家!

Christian: I don't know super speakers. It's a good combination, I guess in term of learning the language, so, you know, and a lot of Norwegians travel as well and they have time to practice as well, which is important if you want to speak English well.

我不知道什么一流演說(shuō)家。但這是個(gè)很好的融合，我想，單是從學(xué)語(yǔ)言方面考慮，很多挪威人出去旅游，同時(shí)會(huì)有更多的時(shí)間說(shuō)英語(yǔ)，練習(xí)英語(yǔ)。如果你想學(xué)好英語(yǔ)這一點(diǎn)是很重要的。

Todd: Sure, well, how difficult is it to learn Norwegian?

當(dāng)然，那學(xué)習(xí)挪威語(yǔ)會(huì)有多難呢?

Christian: That is probably more difficult that English, I'd say, but it's interesting I have a private Japanese student at the moment and he went to Norway on exchange from his university here in Japan

我不得不說(shuō)那可能會(huì)比英語(yǔ)更難，但有趣的是我現(xiàn)在有個(gè)日本學(xué)生，他從他學(xué)校來(lái)挪威做交換生。

and he didn't speak a word of Norwegian before he went but he spent the year there, and he now can have a decent conversation with me in Norwegian.

而且他來(lái)之前不會(huì)說(shuō)一句挪威語(yǔ)但他在這兒呆了幾年，現(xiàn)在跟很熟練地跟我用挪威語(yǔ)對(duì)話了。

That's three years ago since he went there, but still he speaks pretty well.

他來(lái)這兒才三年，但挪威語(yǔ)仍然講得很好。
