Adam: Hi Sarah.
亞當：嗨，薩拉。
Sarah: Hi.
薩拉：嗨。
Adam: Today we're talking about bucket list. Things you want to do before you die. Do you have anything?
亞當：今天我們來談談遺愿清單。就是你在去世之前想做的事情。你有什么想完成的事嗎？
Sarah: Actually, no. I don't have a bucket list. And the reason why is because I've already done or I'm currently doing the things that I want to do. In addition, I like to live in the now, so like the present, like what's happening. So I really don't think of the distant future very much, just like what's in front of me. For example, I'm going to Singapore soon, in about 10 days. And I'm really looking forward to that and the new adventure and things that I'll get to do there.
薩拉：實際上，并沒有。我沒有遺愿清單。原因是我已經完成了我想做的事情，或者我正在達成我的目標。另外，我喜歡活在當下，享受當下，享受目前的狀態。所以我不太考慮遙遠的未來，只考慮眼下的事情。比如，我10天以后要去新加坡。我非常期待這趟旅行，我期待著新的冒險，期待我在那里要做的事情。
Adam: What sort of things do you have in mind to explore in Singapore?
亞當：你有想在新加坡體驗的事情嗎？
Sarah: First of all, swing dancing. My favorite kind of dance currently is Lindy hop swing dancing. And Singapore is one of the places in Asia that has several swing dance meet-up groups. So I look forward to dancing several of the nights while I'm there, but also trying all of the delicious food and just exploring a country that I've never been to.
薩拉：首先，我要嘗試搖擺舞。現在我最喜歡的舞蹈就是搖擺舞。新加坡是亞洲其中一個有擺攤舞聚會的地方。所以我在新加坡會有幾個晚上去跳搖擺舞，當然我也會品嘗當地美食，在這個我沒去過的國家參觀游覽。
Adam: Wow, great. What are some of the things that you have wanted to do in the past that you have accomplished already?
亞當：哇哦，真不錯。那有什么事是你之前想做而現在已經完成的？
Sarah: I think living in foreign countries. I've already lived in two foreign countries and I plan on living in foreign countries probably the rest of my life. So that's a big one. And I think just everyday things, like finishing college and getting two master's degrees and being able to support myself. It's all things that are important to me.
薩拉：我想在外國生活。我已經在兩個國家生活過了，我計劃余生一直在外國生活。這是一件大事。像日常生活、完成大學學業、獲得兩個碩士學位、能養活自己，這些對我來說都是重要的事情。
Adam: Yeah. Those are really great things. What are your two degrees in?
亞當：好。那些都是很重要的事情。你獲得了哪兩個學位？
Sarah: My first degree is in teaching English to speakers of other languages. This degree allows me to be able to live in other countries and to teach English. And then my other degree is in global studies. So it's like an inter-cultural degree where I learned about different cultures and religions.
薩拉：我第一個學位使我可以教母語非英語的人學習英語。這個學位讓我能在其他國家生活，可以教授英語。我另一個學位是全球研究。這是一個與跨文化有關的學位，我要學習不同的文化和宗教。
Adam: That's really great. Have you ever eaten anything exotic or had any really interesting experiences that most people might not have had when you're traveling to these different places and fulfilling your goals?
亞當：那真不錯。你在其他國家，完成你的目標時，有沒有吃過大部分人都沒吃過的食物，或是經歷過其他人沒經歷過的有趣的事情？
Sarah: I've definitely eaten a lot of different things, most of which I'm not really sure what a lot of it was. The strangest probably – jellyfish, maybe. I'd also gotten a chance to ride a lot of different animals. I've ridden a camel, donkey, horse, elephant, and even an ostrich. So that's pretty exciting.
薩拉：我吃過很多美食，其中大部分食物我都不知道是什么。我吃過的最奇怪的食物可能是水母。我還騎過很多動物。我騎過駱駝、驢、馬、大象、還有鴕鳥。那令人非常興奮。
Adam: Yeah. That's really interesting. Have you done any other extreme activities?
亞當：好。那真有意思。你還嘗試過其他極限運動嗎？
Sarah: Yeah. I've been skydiving before. I've been volcano boarding. I'm trying to think what else I have done. I haven't been bungee jumping. I think that's probably one of the only ones that I haven't done as of right now. But I really have no desire to do that one, so.
薩拉：有。我體驗過高空跳傘。我還嘗試過火山滑板。我在想我還嘗試過什么事情。我沒嘗試過蹦極。我想那可能是目前我沒有體驗過的運動之一。不過我并不想體驗蹦極。
Adam: Wow. That's great. You've lived a good life.
亞當：哇哦。不錯。你的生活很美好。
