Football 美式橄榄球
A: Wow, American football is more exciting than I thought.
B: You’re in America now, my British friend. We just call it football.
A: Oh, right. So, I can’t quite follow what’s going on…who’s winning?
B: The Giants are up by three points because of the field goal they kicked, but the Redskins have the ball and there pretty close to the end zone.
A: Wow!  What a hit!
B: Yeah, he tackled him so hard his helmet came off.
A: Is he ok?
B: It looks like it, he’s getting up.
A: I guess he hit him too hard; the referee just called a penalty on the home team.
B: The Giants?
A: Yeah.
B: Well, here we go again.
A: What happened? Why did everyone get so quiet?
B: The Redskin’s quarterback just threw a touchdown pass for seven points.  We’re losing again.
A: 哇，美式足球可比我想象的刺激多了。
B: 我的英国朋友，你现在可是在美国，我们叫它橄榄球。
A: 哦，对了。哦，我不知道情况怎么样了，谁赢了？
B: 因为射门得分，巨人队领先3分。但现在是红人队控球，而且很接近底线区了。
A: 哇，瞧这球！
B: 是呀，他拼命抢球头盔都掉了。
A: 他没事吧？
B: 好像是，他站起来了。
A: 我猜他强得太凶，裁判判罚主队。
B: 你是说巨人队？
A: 是呀。
B: 哦，又继续打了。
A: 怎么回事？大家都不说话了。
B: 红人队的四分卫触地板回了7分，我们又输了。
