实战口语情景对话 第366期:Futsal and Soccer 五人制足球和足球

Simon: Hi! What's your name?
西蒙：你好，你叫什么名字？

Nathan: My name is Nathan Curtis Gildard. Well, my name is Nathan but people call me Nate, so.
内森：我叫内森·柯蒂斯·吉尔达德。我的名字是内森，不过大家都叫我内特。

Simon: OK. What do you do in your free time?
西蒙：好。你空闲时间都做什么？

Nathan: I do a lot of different things. I like to travel around, I like to go to places I've never been. I like to play guitar in a band, which I'm not in right now. I like to play soccer. I play soccer a lot, and I play futsal too.
内森：我会做很多不同的事情。我喜欢四处旅游，我喜欢去以前从未去过的地方。我喜欢在乐队里演奏吉他，目前我并没有乐队。我也喜欢踢足球。我非常喜欢踢足球，我也喜欢玩五人制足球。

Simon: Futsal, what's that?
西蒙：五人制足球，那是什么？

Nathan: Futsal is a 5 a side soccer game, so it's played on a small court about the size of a basketball court, and the ball is smaller than a soccer ball, it's kind of heavy, and you have five people so there are 4 players and one keeper, goalie.
内森：在五人制足球中，每支球队有5名队员上场比赛，所以要在一个小型的场地进行，大小和篮球场一样，五人制足球的用球要比足球小。不过比赛很激烈，因为是5个人参加比赛，所以有4名球员和1名守门员。

Simon: Oh, interesting. Is it similar to soccer in other ways?
西蒙：哦，真有意思。那其他方面都和足球类似吗？

Nathan: Well, it's similar in ways that you pass the ball but it's different in ways that for example you have a stop clock in the international futsal games, and professional games, so there's a stop clock. The way you move around is very different, you know, you have positions like midfield, forward, defense, but often a defender can find themselves playing forward which is kind of fun because defenders get a chance to score too.
内森：嗯，传球之类的是一样的，但是也有不一样的地方，比如，在国际比赛和正式比赛中会配备秒表，会使用到秒表。而且五人制足球的移动方式非常不同，你知道，五人制足球也有中场、前锋、防守等位置，不过通常防守球员会发现他们其实在踢前锋，这也是一种乐趣，因为防守球员也有进球的机会。

Simon: OK, here is the last question, which do you prefer, soccer or the big football or futsal?
西蒙：好的，我还有最后一个问题，足球和五人制足球你更喜欢哪个？

Nathan: Ah, that's a difficult question. I think at the moment I enjoy futsal a little bit more because it is a harder pace. You're running a lot faster. There's more chances to score. It's a really challenging game. It takes a lot of energy, and the five guys that you play with, there's only five people so you really depend on each other to do well so it's a real team sport. You really need each other.
内森：啊，这是一个很难回答的问题。我现在更喜欢五人制足球，因为五人制足球的速度更快。你跑得速度更快。有更多的进球机会。这是一项非常有挑战性的比赛，需要大量能量，而且只有五个人一起比赛，所以你们必须互相依靠，这是一个真正的团队运动。你们真的互相需要。

Simon: Thank you.
西蒙：谢谢你。
