实战口语情景对话 第907期:Salsa Dancing 萨尔萨舞

Jana: Hey, Peter, are you interested in dancing by any chance?
嘉娜：嗨，彼得，你是不是对跳舞感兴趣？

Peter: Yeah, I do. I like dancing. Why?
彼得：对。我喜欢跳舞。怎么了？

Jana: That's great. Well there is a salsa class in Oita City tomorrow night and a few of us are going but it's mainly we have a group of girls, five girls, so we need some guys to come along so I was wondering if you would like to come?嘉娜：太好了。明天晚上大分市有一个萨尔萨舞蹈班，我们几个人打算去，可是我们5个人都是女孩，所以我们想找个男孩和我们一起去，你想来吗？Peter: Sounds interesting but will I be the only guy?
彼得：听起来很有趣，不过只有我一个男生吗？

Jana: Oh no, there are other people who come along but because it's four of us from the university we thought it would be nice if we get some more people.
嘉娜：不是，还有其他人要一起去，不过因为我们四个是大学同学，我们想如果叫上更多的人一起去会更好。

Peter: OK. It sounds interesting. What kind of class is it, how does it work?
彼得：好，听起来很有意思。那是什么班，都教些什么？

Jana: Well it sort of varies but the teacher comes in once a month and teaches different styles, salsa or merengue, a different Latin dance. Have you ever tried?
嘉娜：嗯，很多，老师一个月过来一次，教不同种类的舞蹈，有萨尔萨舞、梅伦格舞、拉丁舞。你跳过吗？

Peter: I've tried I guess in different places but never been taught before or I've never really been shown how to.
彼得：我在其他地方跳过，不过我以前没有学过，我没有跟老师学过动作。

Jana: So you would already be an expert?
嘉娜：那你已经是专家了？

Peter: I don't know about that.
彼得：我并不这么认为。

Jana: Well don't worry, it's a really basic level but the teacher will show us some basic steps and then we'll practice in pairs and you dance with different people. It's quite a lot of fun.
嘉娜：别担心，这只是基础班，老师会教一些基本舞步，然后我们分组进行练习，你可以和不同的人跳舞，非常有意思。

Peter: OK. What time does it start?
彼得：好。几点开始上课？

Jana: It starts around six thirty
.嘉娜：6点半。

Peter: And how long does it last for?
彼得：上多长时间？

Jana: Usually the class goes on for about an hour and there is free social dancing afterwards so you can stay longer.
嘉娜：通常是1个小时，之后还有交际舞课，你可以多待一会儿。

Peter: OK.
彼得：好。

Jana: And practice, have a drink.
嘉娜：就是练习，然后喝水休息。

Peter: It sounds quite nice. Do I have to wear anything special or have...?
彼得：听起来很不错。我要穿特殊的衣服吗还是……？

Jana: No, just whatever you're comfortable in. Some people wear or girls wear special shoes I guess but you don't have to worry, just something comfortable.
嘉娜：不用，就穿舒服的衣服就可以。有些女孩会穿专用鞋，不过你不用担心，穿舒服的就可以。

Peter: So shoes, any shoes are fine?
彼得：鞋，什么鞋都可以吗？

Jana: Any shoes, yeah, any shoes are fine.
嘉娜：什么鞋都可以。

Peter: OK. It sounds pretty nice actually. So does it cost anything, do I have to prepare money?
彼得：好。听起来很不错。那要交费吗，我用准备钱吗？

Jana: Yeah, it's ten dollars per lesson and you get a free drink with that.
嘉娜：用，一节课10美元，包含免费饮料。

Peter: OK. Free drink, that sounds good. Where are you guys meeting, which station?
彼得：免费饮料，听起来真不错。你们在哪儿集合，地铁站吗？

Jana: We can meet at Oita station. It's only about a ten minute walk from there so maybe we can meet around six fifteen?
嘉娜：我们可以在大分站集合。从那里走过去只要10分钟，我们6点15分见怎么样？

Peter: OK. That's sounds fine. I'll give you a call sometime just to make sure.
彼得：好，听起来不错。我会给你打电话再确定一下。

Jana: All right, great. See you then.
嘉娜：好，很好。到时候见。

Peter: All right, thanks.
彼得：好的，谢谢。
