Podcast Number 2 — Australian Rules Football
播客第二期：澳式足球
Hi. Do you like sport? Australians, and particularly those who live in Melbourne, are crazy about sport. In Melbourne you can watch a large range of competitive sports. For example, I have been to see Australian rules football, rugby league, rugby union, cricket, basketball, hockey, Taekwondo, golf, tennis, car racing, motorcycle racing and athletics, just to name those which I have attended here in Melbourne. Now most cities in the world have lots of sports events, but in Melbourne we attend these events in large numbers. For example, the Grand Final of the Australian Rules Football competition in September of each year has around 100,000 sports fans attend the match. And we have the sports ground big enough to hold such a large crowd, the Melbourne Cricket Ground (popularly called 'The MCG', or 'The G'). In this podcast, I would like to talk about Australian Rules Football.
大家好。你們喜歡體育運動嗎？澳大利亞人，尤其是生活在墨爾本的澳大利亞人，非常癡迷于體育運動。在墨爾本可以觀看到很多種競技體育比賽。比如，我在墨爾本看過澳式足球、橄欖球大聯盟、橄欖球聯合會、板球、籃球、曲棍球、跆拳道、高爾夫、網球、賽車、摩托車比賽和田徑等各種各樣的比賽，這些只是我列舉的一些我在墨爾本看過的比賽。世界上大多數城市都會舉辦多種體育賽事，但是墨爾本的體育賽事總能吸引到大批觀眾。舉例來說，每年九月舉行的澳式足球總決賽會吸引約10萬名體育迷到現場觀看比賽。我們有足以容納這么多觀眾的大型運動場，比如墨爾本板球中心（通常被稱作The MCG或The G）。在本期播客中，我將介紹一下澳式足球。
Australian Rules Football (called 'Footy' by fans all around Australia) is around 150 years old. It is played with an oval shaped ball by two teams, each with 18 players. The team which kicks the most goals and points wins the game. It is a very physical game and it's main characteristics are speed, strong tackling, long kicking (up to 70 metres), long handballs (up to 30 metres) and high marks. A 'mark' is when someone catches a kicked ball.
澳式足球（澳大利亞球迷通常稱之為footy）距今已有約150年的歷史。澳式足球是兩個球隊用橢圓形球進行的比賽，每隊18名球員。進最多球、獲得最多分的球隊獲勝。澳式足球身體對抗激烈，主要特點是速度、強勢搶斷、長傳（最遠70米）、長距離手球（最遠30米）和高跳接球。“接球”是指球員接住被踢出的球。
