Conversation One
對話一
W: I can't understand why there are so many extreme sports lovers nowadays.
女：我很難理解為什么現在有那么多極限運動的愛好者。
M: In the current society, more and more people are city-born and city-bred. They want to find a way to explore their potential and go back to nature. Extreme sports just offer this opportunity.
男：當今社會，越來越多的人生在城市，長在城市。人們迫切想要尋找一種方式激發自己的潛力，回歸自然。而極限運動就是個不錯的方式。
W: I see your point here. (8) But extreme sports are really dangerous; those who are not very skillful or experienced are easily get hurt, let alone...
女：我明白你的意思。可我覺得極限運動很危險，那些沒有豐富經驗的人很容易受傷，更別說......
M: Yes, you have a point here. On the other hand, that is the charm of the sports. (10) They are challenging and demanding. Extreme sports also provide more individualized ways of pushing the person to his or her limits.
男：你說的也有道理。可這也正在這項運動的魅力所在。這是一項富有挑戰性而且高要求的運動。極限運動能夠以獨特的方式幫助人們挑戰自己的極限。
W: But don't you think they are so individualized that they are easy to go on an abnormal way?
女：可是你不覺得極限運動過于個性化而容易讓人變得極端嗎？
M: Maybe we should be more optimistic about their future. And we have to admit that extreme sports can also enable people to face fears.
男：我覺得咱們應該樂觀點看這個問題。不得不承認，極限運動的確能夠幫助人們面對內心的恐懼。
W: That is only one part of the picture. These sports can also revel in individuals' isolation—they don't have to rely on anybody else.
女：這只是片面的看法。極限運動也會導致人們沉溺于孤立的個人主義之中——他們無須依靠任何人。
M: That is just how it works. There is no winning and losing, and each individual is really competing against himself.
男：這就是極限運動的作用。其實世上并無成敗，人們需要戰勝的是自己。
W: But in reality, we develop ourselves by working with and against others. Traditional sports provide a way for individuals to push themselves through the challenge of competition, or work together as a team. (11) Extreme sports only encourage a focus on individual performance, rather than pushing the limits of human achievement.
女：但在現實生活中，我們通過與人合作，超越別人來提升自己。傳統的運動能幫助人們通過激烈的競爭或者提高團隊協作能力。而極限運動只會增強人們的個人主義而不能激發人的潛能。
