地道美语听力播客875：划船事故

Liset: I should never have gotten on this boat. We’re going to sink. I know it!

Liset:我真不应该上这艘船!我们要沉下去了!我就知道会这样。

Mark: Calm down. The water is a little rough today, but there’s nothing to worry about. You have your life jacket on, right?

马克：镇定。今天有点风浪，但是不要担心。你穿上救生衣了，是吗?

Liset: Oh my God, water is splashing into the boat. We need to start bailing right now!

Liset:天呀。水在拍打船。我们现在立刻需要求救。
 

Mark: Don’t be ridiculous. That’s just a little sea spray. Sit down and relax.

马克：别胡言乱语了!只是溅了点小波浪。坐下来放松。

Liset: Look out! There’s another boat over there!

Liset:小心!那有一条船!

Mark: It’s just passing by. We might feel its wake, but we’re not going to capsize. I promise you that.

马克：它只是路过。我们可能感觉震动点，但是不会翻船的。我保证。

Liset: How long do you think we can survive adrift on the water?

Liset:你认为我们会在水面上漂着，会活多久?

Liset: I wonder how long we’ll be marooned on an island. I hope to see my family again someday.

Liset:我想我们会在岛上困多久啊。我希望在未来的某一天能见到我的家人。

Mark: All right, we’re return to the shore. It’s clear that you’re not enjoying this.

马克：好吧。我们现在就回到岸上去。很明显，你不享受现在的状态。

Liset: I didn’t know we’d be sailing in the middle of a squall.

Liset:我不知道我们会在暴风中航行。

Mark: There’s a gentle breeze today, that’s all. I’m sorry I didn’t wait for a completely calm day to take you out on your first boat ride.

马克：今天只是有点威风。很抱歉。你第一次乘船，我应该挑个风平浪静的日子。

Liset: My first and last!
