美語(yǔ)咖啡屋 Lesson 3: Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree

J: Hello I'm Jody and welcome to American Cafe.

Y: 各位聽(tīng)眾好， 歡迎您到美語(yǔ)咖啡屋。我是楊晨。

J: You know, Christmas is just around the corner and I am already starting to feel Christmas all around me.

Y: 你是說(shuō)商店里現(xiàn)在擠滿了搶購(gòu)禮物的人，還有電視上不停地在播放圣誕節(jié)的廣告，對(duì)不對(duì)？

J: No, no! I ignore all of that stuff. No, what I mean, is I'm starting to hear and smell Christmas. OK, Close your eyes, Yang Chen, and think about Christmas and tell me what you hear and smell.

(Silence. Long pause)

J: Yang Chen? Yang Chen, anything yet? You know people are waiting.

Y: 哎呀，你等一等。我正在豎著耳朵聽(tīng)呢，還得使勁聞一聞。你不是說(shuō)要我閉著眼睛尋找感覺(jué)嗎？呣,我找到了。 在一個(gè)美麗的夜晚，星星在閃耀，我站在雪地里，聽(tīng)到了雪橇那悅耳的聲音。對(duì)，就是這種感覺(jué)，你覺(jué)得怎么樣？

J: That's okay. But I was thinking more like ... chainsaws.

Y: Chainsaws? 啊呀，你真是掃我的興啊。原來(lái)你說(shuō)的聲音是電動(dòng)鋸的聲音。太不浪漫了。

J: Well, I know it's not romantic, but I love the sound of a chainsaw and the smell of a pine tree being cut. The Christmas tree tradition is one of the best things about Christmas.

Y: 對(duì)。真正的圣誕樹(shù)用的是松樹(shù)？

J: Right, pine tree.
