实战口语情景对话：蝙蝠 Bats

Todd: I usually get home from work at about 6:30 and when I get home the first thing I like to do is go jogging. Fortunately, my apartment is near a river and I go jogging on the river at night. It's really beautiful. It's really green. There's lots of trees and fields along the river and it's quite beautiful. The worst thing about my jog though are the dogs. There are river dogs that live along the river and they don't have a home and they're a little bit dangerous. Sometimes they threaten to chase you or bite you and when you jog by they often growl. Sometimes I have to keep a bottle of water to throw on them or maybe a stick so they don't attack, but so far nothing's happened. The best thing about the jog are the bats. When you jog at night there are bats that fly and they eat insects. This is right at sunset, as the sun goes down, and it's really, really beautiful to see them, and when you jog amazingly they'll fly at the same pace as you, I think because the insects maybe are attracted to the joggers body heat, but the bats will not get too close to the jogger, to me, they will only get about 4 or 5 feet from me, but they fly at the same pace. As I jog I can see them and it's really, really beautiful to see them when I run.

托德：一般我下班到家的时间是6点半，我到家以后喜欢做的第一件事就是慢跑。幸运地是，我的公寓附近有条河，我晚上会沿着河慢跑。风景特别美。周围都是绿色的景物。河边有许多树木和田地，非常漂亮。最糟糕的事情是我慢跑的路上有狗。那些是河狗，就是住在河边的狗，它们没有家，这些狗有些危险。有时它们会威胁你，追着你或咬你，你跑过它们旁边的时候他们经常咆哮。有时我不得不拿瓶水扔向它们，或是用棍子扔它们，这样它们就不会发动攻击，不过到目前为止并没有发生什么事。慢跑过程中最棒的事情就是蝙蝠。你在夜里慢跑的时候会看到蝙蝠飞来飞去，吃昆虫。这是在马上就要日落的时候，太阳落山时，它们看起来非常非常美，最神奇的是，你慢跑的时候，它们会和你用一样的速度飞翔，我想可能是因为昆虫被慢跑者的体温吸引了，不过蝙蝠不会离慢跑者太近，对我来说，它们会和我保持4或5英尺的距离，不过它们会和我用相同的速度飞舞。我慢跑的时候可以看到它们，我在跑步的时候能看到它们真的很美好。
