2018-08-24来源:和谐英语

Gyri: Do you play any sports besides basketball?
格里:除了篮球以外你还做什么运动?

Viyasan: Basketball is my main sport. I used to play a little bit of volleyball when I was in high school and so I played the position of setter and so that was very fun. It took a lot of accuracy. I think if I had to be a little bit more talented, it would be at jumping because if I was able to jump a lot more, I would be able to fake my sets and just hit the ball down on the opponent's side. That would be a cool talent to have if I was able to jump maybe five to ten more inches higher than I usually did. I still remember that my vertical was 26 inches when I was in grade nine or grade ten and so maybe if I added a couple more inches onto that I would've been able to perform in more creative ways.
维亚森:篮球是我的主项。我高中时打过一段时间的排球,我的位置是二传手,那非常有趣。这个位置需要很高的精准度。我想如果我更具天赋一些,那我希望我能更擅长跳跃,因为如果我能跳得更高,那我就能假装传球,直接将球扣在对方场地。如果我跳跃的高度能增加5至10寸,那这会是一个非常酷的才能。我记得我在9年级或10年级时的纵跳高度是26寸,如果我的跳跃高度能增加几寸,那我在比赛中的发挥就能更具创造性。

Gyri: Yeah.
格里:对。

Viyasan: Yeah.
维亚森:嗯。

Gyri: Can you dunk a basketball?
格里:你能灌篮吗?

Viyasan: That depends on how high the rim is. If it's five feet or six feet, definitely, but on a standard regulation net, which is probably nine or 9.5 feet, I cannot.
维亚森:那要取决于篮筐有多高。如果篮筐只有五六英尺高,那我肯定能灌,但是如果是标准的9英尺或9.5英尺这个高度,那我不行。

Gyri: Okay.
格里:好。

Viyasan: But maybe if I had the talent of jumping extremely high, I would be able to dunk a basketball but no.
维亚森:不过如果我拥有那种能跳的极高的能力,那我就能灌篮,可惜我没有。

Gyri: Can you dribble with your left hand?
格里:你能用左手运球吗?

Viyasan: Of course. I can dribble with my let hand, I can dribble with my right hand, I can dribble between my legs. I've done a lot of different types of basketball drills when I was on the high school team and so yeah, I'm pretty good at handling the basketball. Shooting, driving to the net, and passing it a lot quite a bit, so yeah, pretty efficient with the basketball.
维亚森:当然可以。我可以用左手运球,可以用右手运球,还可以在两腿间运球。我高中时参加过多种不同的篮球训练,所以我非常擅长控球。投篮、带球上篮、迅速传球,这些我都没问题。

Gyri: Yeah, that's impressive.
格里:嗯,那令人印象深刻。

Viyasan: I just can't dunk.
维亚森:我只是不能灌篮。

Gyri: Okay, yeah. Can you shoot with your left hand?
格里:哦,好。你能用左手投篮吗?

Viyasan: Mm, no, I cannot. I can't shoot with my left hand. I can do a lay up with my left hand, but I can't shoot the ball naturally like a free throw or three point shot with my left hand.
维亚森:嗯,不能。我不会。我不能用左手投篮。我可以用左手上篮,不过我不能用左手罚篮也不能投三分球。

Gyri: Okay. What exactly is a lay up?
格里:好。什么是上篮?

Viyasan: A lay up is when you drive towards the net, you're allowed to take two steps while holding the basketball and so that's usually how people when they're very close to the net, they do a lay up or they're also able to convert a lay up into a dunk so they're able to take two steps and dunk towards the basketball net.
维亚森:上篮就是你带球接近篮筐,依据规则,在持球状态下可以移动两步,通常运动员在非常接近篮筐的情况下会选择上篮,或是把上篮转化成扣篮,运动员可以移动两步,然后将球扣进篮筐。

Gyri: Okay.
格里:好。

Viyasan: Yeah, that's a little bit of basketball knowledge for you.
维亚森:嗯,这是一些简单的篮球知识。

Gyri: Yeah, got it.
格里:嗯,我懂了。
