Hi, Michael. What's that you're listening to?

嗨，Michael。你在听什么音乐?

Hm? Oh, this? It's Miles Davis. His last album.

嗯?这个吗?这是迈尔斯·戴维斯的上一张专辑。

Oh. You like jazz, do you?

哦。你挺喜欢爵士乐的。

Oh, yeah, in a big way. You?

对啊，相当喜欢。你呢?

Well, I like some kinds of jazz. I like big band music,for example.

嗯，有几种爵士乐我还满喜欢的，像我就蛮喜欢大乐团音乐。

But classical music's more my thing. I like going to chamber music concerts.

不过，古典乐就不太合我的意了。我喜欢听室内音乐会。

Oh, me, too, but I like going to listen to jazz trumpet.

噢，我也是。不过我喜欢听的是爵士喇叭。

Oh, yes? Do you play?

噢，是吗?你会吹吗?

Yes, a bit, unfortunately for my neighbors! You?

会一点，不过邻居就倒霉了。你呢?

I played the violin when I was a kid, but I stopped when I left school.

我小时候会拉小提琴，不过离开校园生活以后就没再拉了。

Oh, right. Oh, listen to this. Wow, it's really exciting!

我明白。噢，天哪，你听听这个。哇，真令人兴奋!

Isn't it? Just listen to that bass.

可不是吗，听听里面的低音。

Oh, yes. I like it. It's hard to describe, but it's kind of…uplifting?

噢，听到了，我喜欢。它很难形容，不过让我觉得很舒服?

It's funky, man! Funky!

那是放克音乐，嘿!放克!
