  常用英文对话:The Big Mix

  Todd: So CleAnn, you're from Trinidad and Tobago and you were saying that your country has a verydiverse multicultural mix?

  托德:科勒安,你来自特立尼达和多巴哥,你说过你们国家是多元文化混合的国家。

  CleAnn: Yes.

  科勒安:对。

  Todd: Can you talk about that?

  托德:你能详细说说吗?

  CleAnn: Oh sure. Trinidad and Tobago mostly were made up of people from Africa (African descent) who came as slaves and Indians who came from India...mostly, I think we may also have some from parts of Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka, but they came as indentured laborers closer to when slavery was being abolished. These two groups actually make up the two largest ethnic groups in Trinidad. However, there is a lot of mixing. It's very difficult to find someone in Trinidad and Tobago who is extremely, purely of one ethnic group because everyone is sort of mixed. We have also a lot of whites or caucasians who are native to Trinidad and Tobago who speak exactly like me with my Caribbean accent and many people who find it very strange because they will walk around in Trinidad and think that they are tourists but realize that they are actually native Trinidadians. And many also come from Europe to settle in Trinidad after retirement and have their families here so this is how they came to stay here. We have a very large Chinese population and its growing because now the government is encouraging immigrants from China to come in to help us with our development, to build our capital city so we have a lot of Chinese. We have a lot of Colombians, Venezuelans, people coming from South and Central America migrating to Trinidad because Spanish is now being promoted as a second language for Trinidad so street signs in our capital city are in English and Spanish. So with all of this mixing of different people it's very, as I said, very difficult to find a person who is of just one ethnic group and it's reflected in our food, it's reflected in the kind of music we listen to, sometimes in the way we dress. For me, for example, I'm mostly of African descent but my dad is mixed with people from South American ethnicity and Chinese. So, as I said, although I'm mostly African, everybody still has a little bit of something in them.

  科勒安:哦,好的。特立尼达和多巴哥人口主要由来自非洲(非洲裔)的奴隶和印度人组成,也有孟加拉国人、巴基斯坦人、斯里兰卡人,这些人是作为契约劳动力来到特立尼达和多巴哥的,他们到来时奴隶制已经快被废除。这两个群体组成了特立尼达两大少数族群。不过基本上是混合族裔。在特立尼达和多巴哥很难找到纯种人,因为各族裔之间是相互混合的。特立尼达和多巴哥也有本土白种人,这些人的口音和我的加勒比口音非常像,很多人认为这很奇怪,因为他们以为这些人是游客,结果却发现这些都是本土特立尼达和多巴哥人。也有很多欧洲人在退休后来到特立尼达定居,因为他们在这里有家人,所以他们就留了下来。我们国家的中国人也很多,而且人数还在不断增加,因为政府鼓励中国移民帮助我们发展、建造我们的首都,所以我们国家有很多中国人。我们国家也有很多哥伦比亚裔和委内瑞拉裔等来自中南美洲的移民,因为现在西班牙语是特立尼达的第二语言,我们首都街头有很多标志都是用英语和西班牙语写的。我刚才提到过,因为各族裔混合在一起,所以很难在我们国家找到纯种人,这一点也反映在我们的食物、音乐和我们的服装上。举个例子,我基本上是非洲裔,而我爸爸是南美和中国的混血。所以,如我刚才所说,虽然我基本上是非洲血统,但是所有人身上都或多或少有其他族裔的血统。

  常用英文对话:Long Distance Relationships

  Alex: So how do you feel about long distance relationships?

  亚历克斯:你怎么看远距离恋爱?

  Maria: Not that good. I had two relationships by now and both of them ended after me going somewhere. First time I was in Denmark but like I lived on a school in another city and while I was there for four months like I think two months after I went home to him and broke up and then came back to the school and just didn't really care. And then the second time I went traveling and I missed him so much and I came back and realized that there was nothing left. I'd lost everything while I was away so I don't, after one month, after two months, I think it just doesn't work for me if it's not really special.

  玛丽亚:不太好。我谈过两次恋爱,这两次恋情都是在我搬到其他地方以后结束的。第一次恋情,当时我在丹麦,我住在另一座城市的学校里,我在那里待了四个月的时间,我记得应该是两个月以后,我回家去和他分手,然后回到学校继续学习,当时我并没有那么在乎。第二次,我在旅行的时候非常想他,我回来以后发现什么都没留下。我离开的时候失去了一切,我认为,在一两个月以后,如果不是那么在乎我,那就不适合我。

  Alex: Yeah, I guess you're kind of like me. I have to see the person.

  亚历克斯:对,我想你和我一样。我必须要见到那个人。

  Maria: Exactly.

  玛丽亚:没错。

  Alex: Almost, you know, daily.

  亚历克斯:而且差不多每天都要见。

  Maria: Exactly and you can have conversations online and on the phone but if there's no, I don't know, it doesn't have to be much, just like be close, see each other in the eye.

  玛丽亚:没错,虽然可以在网上聊天或者打电话,可是那没有亲眼见到那个人那样亲密。

  Alex: It's a big difference, yeah. I did a month when I went home to Australia away...

  亚历克斯:有很大的区别。我回澳大利亚的时候和她分开了一个月。

  Maria: This summer?

  玛丽亚:今年夏天吗?

  Alex: Yeah, this recent summer and like Skype is just not enough. Do you know what I mean? You can see the person, you can talk to them, you know you can kiss the camera if you want but it's not...

  亚历克斯:对,就是夏天,用Skype视频通话根本不够。你懂我的意思吗?你可以见到那个人,你们可以聊天,如果你想你也可以亲吻镜头,可是……

  Maria: If you want.

  玛丽亚:如果你想。

  Alex: You know it's not the same but that's not to say I don't think, some people can do it.

  亚历克斯:你知道那并不一样,不过我知道,有人可以做到。

  Maria: I figure if it's a very, like if the relationship is very, it's very passionate',event)">passionate or you've been going on for a long time because both of my relationships were under one year I think. The first one was one year and the second one was half a year. So if we're used to staying together then I think you can work it out. I'm just too impatient.

  玛丽亚:我想,如果一段恋爱充满激情,而且恋爱关系维持了很长时间,是可以做到的,不过我的两段恋情都没有超过一年就结束了。第一段恋情维持了一年,第二段只维持了半年。如果我们习惯于待在一起,那是可以坚持下去的。我太没有耐心了。

  Alex: Yeah, I guess under a year you haven't really learned to depend on the other person all the time.

  亚历克斯:对,我想不到一年的时间,你们还没有学会要一直互相依靠。

  Maria: Exactly.

  玛丽亚:没错。

  Alex: Or...

  亚历克斯:或者……

  Maria: Still going by the passion and if you can't see the person every day or like whenever you want, then the passion just slowly fades.

  玛丽亚:至于热情,如果你们不能每天都见面,或者不能随时见面,那热情也会渐渐消退的。

  Alex: Yeah, agreed.

  亚历克斯:没错,我同意。

  Maria: But this is your first relationship right?

  玛丽亚:这是你的初恋,对吧?

  Alex: Yes it is and I did one month when I went home away from the person and it was just...

  亚历克斯:没错,我回家的时候和她分开了一个月的时间……

  Maria: And that was the first time you ever went away from the person?

  玛丽亚:这是你们第一次分开吗?

  Alex: Yeah and it was just aah horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible.

  亚历克斯:对,感觉非常糟糕,非常可怕,非常不好。

  Maria: I remember the first time I like traveled while my boyfriend was still at home and it was a week and I was devastated so it's, if it's passionate',event)">passionate it's...

  玛丽亚:我记得我第一次外出旅行而男朋友留在家里的那一星期,我感觉极度不安,如果热情……

  Alex: Well I did Christmas away from them when I went to Christmas, I did India for Christmas last year.

  亚历克斯:我圣诞节的时候有和女朋友分开过,我去年去印度过的圣诞节。

  Maria: OK.

  玛丽亚:好。

  Alex: And two weeks was bad enough and then a month and I was just pulling my hair out, do you know? So.

  亚历克斯:当时我们分开了两个星期,那已经够糟糕了,而这次分开了一个月,我简直要抓狂了,你懂那种感觉吗?

  Maria: Yeah, it's hard.

  玛丽亚:对,非常难。

  Alex: It, yeah, it certainly is.

  亚历克斯:对,当然很难了。

  Maria: Yeah.

  玛丽亚:对。

  常用英文对话:Food for Good Skin

  Mike: Hey, MJ, I heard that herbal tea is good for your complexion?

  迈克:实际上,我的皮肤和你相反。因为夏天快到了,所以我的皮肤现在非常干,我一直在用保湿霜,可是没什么效果,所以我想也许我应该尝试下花草茶。

  MJ: Yeah, you should cause, a long time ago my face was kind of dry like you, but after drinking herbal tea, which my roommate recommended to me, and you really help your skin to be more bright and energetic. My skin no more dry. It's really good.

  MJ:你应该尝试一下,很长时间以前我的脸也像你一样干,不过我在室友的推荐下喝了花草茶以后,我发现花草茶能帮助皮肤变得更亮更有活力。现在我的皮肤已经不干了。非常不错。

  迈克:除了茶,还有什么食物对皮肤有益吗?

  MJ: I think garlic is really good for your complexion.

  MJ:我认为大蒜对皮肤有好处。

  Mike: Oh, I heard about that as well.

  迈克:哦,我也听过这种说法。

  MJ: Yeah, most Korean girls, they have such good skin, especially on their face, I think because they're eating kimchi which the main ingredient is garlic.

  MJ:对,大部分韩国女孩的皮肤都很好,尤其是脸部皮肤,我认为这是因为她们经常吃以大蒜为主要原料的泡菜。

  Mike: Right, that's a big problem for me because I don't like garlic. I don't mind it if it's fried with vegetables, but I don't like the raw taste of garlic. Garlic's out for me, so are there any other stuff I can try?

  迈克:好,对我来说这是个大问题,因为我不喜欢大蒜。我并不介意炒菜里面放大蒜,但是我不喜欢生吃大蒜。大蒜我就不考虑了,还有其他我可以尝试的食物吗?

  MJ: You know tomato? It is low calorie and it is a vegetable which tastes like fruit but is a vegetable that is really good for your complexion as well so if you like tomato, just try to take as many tomato as you can.

  Mike: Fresh tomato?

  迈克:新鲜的番茄?

  MJ: Fresh tomato.

  MJ:新鲜的番茄。

  Mike: What about like tomato based stuff like pasta? Is that OK or is that no?

  迈克:番茄批萨怎么样?这样吃也可以吗?

  MJ: That is OK but when you cook the tomato, there are vitamins just goes away, so the fresh one is better.

  MJ:可以,不过番茄烹饪以后,其含有的维他命会流失,所以新鲜的番茄更营养。

  迈克:新鲜的番茄。好,好,我知道了。

  MJ: By the way, what about Singapore? Like do girls eat special food for their skin?

  Mike: Good question. I don't know that much, but there's always this thing about eating tofu and for my dad, he doesn't even cook it. He eats it like ... he just eats tofu without cooking it. And my dad has great complexion. My mom, she drinks a combination of Bali Green. It's just a green substancefrom the bali plant, and she basically blends them together with garlic and one other fruit, and a little bit of honey and apple cider, so it's just a few ingredients together and then she mixes it with juice and she drinks it like every morning, but I've tried it but I don't like raw garlic so I couldn't stomach that, but my mom's complexion is good, but these are not only good for your complexion, this is just good for overall health.

  迈克:这是个好问题。对此我了解不多,不过我们经常吃豆腐,我爸爸甚至会生吃豆腐。他会吃未经烹饪的豆腐。我爸爸的皮肤很好。我妈妈会喝绿色蔬菜汁。就是从植物里提取的绿色物质,她会在里面加入大蒜和其他水果,再放一些蜂蜜和苹果汁,她把几种原料混合在果汁里,她每天早上都喝,我试过,可是因为我不喜欢生大蒜的味道,所以我喝不了,我妈妈的皮肤也很好,这种蔬菜汁不仅仅是对皮肤有好处,对整个身体健康都有好处。
