实战口语情景对话 第1210期:What type of famous person would you like to be? 想成为哪种名人

Tlotlo: Hi, my name is Tlotlo and I am from Botswana.
特罗特洛：嗨，我是特罗特洛，来自博茨瓦纳。

Resse: Hey, I'm Resse from Botswana as well.
里斯：嗨，我是里斯，同样来自博茨瓦纳。

Tlotlo: So our question is would you rather be a famous singer, actor, athlete or a politician?
特罗特洛：我们要讨论的问题是，你更想成为哪种名人，著名歌手、演员、运动员还是政治家？

Resse: I think I'd rather be a famous actor because you get a lot of money.
里斯：我想成为著名演员，因为可以挣很多钱。

Tlotlo: OK.
特罗特洛：好。

Resse: You're famous but you don't do that much. If you're an athlete you have to work hard and you are always tired.
里斯：你很出名，而且不用做太多事。如果当运动员，那要努力运动，而且一直会很累。

Tlotlo: What about learning scripts? That sounds like a really difficult job to me.
特罗特洛：那记台词呢？对我来说那听起来是很难的工作。

Resse: But you learn bit by bit because shooting is over a long time so maybe it's not so hard.
里斯：你可以一点一点记，因为拍摄会持续很长时间，所以可能不是那么难。

Tlotlo: I would really say I think being an actor is actually pretty hard. There's a lot that comes with it. It's a part that sometimes you are not very familiar with and that should take a lot out of you, you know, so it should be a hard job.
特罗特洛：我认为做演员非常难。有很多要承担。有时你可能会遇到不太熟悉的事情，那会让你消耗很多，所以那应该是很难的工作。

Resse: You just need to be good at being fake.
里斯：你只要擅长伪装就行了。

Tlotlo: You could put it that way. Well I think I'd rather be a famous singer. I wish I was good in singing though but that's what I'd be. I'm really all about spreading the love and sharing my thoughts with other people and just expressing my mind and I think singers have that opportunity to share what's in their mind, express themselves, share the love, you know, and I think that's what I'd much rather do just spread the word. I'm all about words. I think words have a very, very big effect on people. What you say really does matter. So being a singer could actually say a lot and touch so many people's hearts. That's my destiny of life, I want to touch many hearts, so a singer for me.
特罗特洛：也可以这样说。我认为我更想当著名歌手。我希望我能擅长唱歌，我想当歌手。我想四处去传播爱，和其他人分享我的想法，表达我的看法，我认为歌手有机会分享他们的思想，表达自己，传播爱，我更愿意做的是传播这些信息。我相信言语的力量。我认为言语可以对他人产生非常大的影响。你所说的话很重要。当歌手可以表达很多，可以感动人心。那是我的人生目标，我希望能感动很多人，所以我要当歌手。
