地道美语听力练习:运动选拔赛

Marcela:All right, you're ready for these tryouts.

You've passed your physical.

You've trained for months. You're going to make that team.

Kenji:It's okay. I don't need a pep talk.

I'm just going to do the best I can.

Marcela:Yes, but you want to have your head in the right place.

You're going to dominate the field.

You're going to intimidate the other players.

Kenji:No, I only want to impress the coach.

I'm going to play hard and hold nothing back.

Marcela:Yes, that's fine, but you want to send a message to the other players that you're a force to be reckoned with.

Kenji:I'm going to have faith in my abilities, and hope for the best.

Marcela:At least try to look tough.

Try scowling at the other players like you can't wait to get them on the field so you can crush them.

Kenji:I tell you what, why don't you scowl for me?

I think you're much scarier than any player who's ever played this game.
