关于探险的英语对话篇3:Tales from the Lewis and Clark Expedition

ANNA: Hello and welcome to As It Isfrom VOA Learning English.

ANNA: I’m Anna Matteo in Washington, DC. And today we bring you a live Q&A for our listeners. For those who may have not heard that expression before, Q&A stands for “Questions” and “Answers.” I will be asking the questions, and my co-worker here atVOA, Kelly Jean Kelly, will be answering them.

Kelly has just returned from an exciting road trip, an expedition. And she’s going to tell us all about it. So, welcome to the studio, Kelly!

ANNA: Hi, Kelly. How are you?

KELLY: Great!

ANNA: And let’s just begin with our first question. What is an "expedition.” It’s a great word. Meriam-Webster dictionary defines it as a journey especially by a group of people for a specific purpose, such as to explore a distant place or to do research. But also the group of people who travel together are called an expedition. What was the purpose, Kelly, of your recent expedition?

KELLY: Well, we were actually reporting on another expedition! That expedition happened in 1805. It was led by two men. Their names are Lewis and Clark -- so, Americans sometimes call it the Lewis and Clark expedition.

KELLY: And Lewis and Clark were exploring the western United States. They traveled by boat and over land from St. Louis, Missouri. And you can picture a map of the United States … St. Louis is in the middle in today’s Midwest. And Lewis and Clark traveled from St. Louis all the way to the Pacific Ocean in what is now Oregon. So for our expedition we just traveled over the last part of their journey. We went to Montana and then on to the ocean in Oregon.

ANNA: For one thing that sounds fantastic, by the way. Tell us some of things you learned on this trip -- this expedition -- that made an impression on you. And that means, um, the things you remember because they were so different or so important.

KELLY: So, one of the things I learned was about the other people who traveled with Lewis and Clark. Lewis and Clark are pretty famous in U.S. history. But there was a whole group of people with them. And one of them was a young Native American woman. She was very young. She was maybe 15-, 16-, 17-years old. And she helped translate so Lewis and Clark could talk to the Native American tribe called the Shoshone in Montana. And the Shoshone were very important for Lewis and Clark because the Shoshone helped them get across the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific.

KELLY: This young woman is usually called Sacagewea. But one of the things I learned on this trip is that her name was probably actually pronounced, Sah-caw-gah-wee-ah.

ANNA: That’s very different than we learned in school. What was she translating?

KELLY: So, it was interesting. She was translating the Shoshone language for Lewis and Clark. But she didn’t necessarily speak English. And that was the only language that Lewis and Clark spoke. But she spoke her own language. She spoke a different Native American language. And she spoke some French. And her husband was French. So, she probably heard the Shoshone language, translated it into French, her husband translated into English for Lewis and Clark. There might have been maybe one or two other people involved in that chain of communication. So, you can imagine that any basic conversation could take hours!

ANNA: And you think what could have been lost in translation or perhaps misunderstood going through so many different people.

KELLY: Exactly. Exactly.

ANNA: Don’t go away. When we return we will hear more about Kelly’s trip and more about the Lewis and Clark expedition. You are listening to the VOA Learning English programAs It Is.

ANNA: Welcome back. I’m Anna Matteo here in our Washington, D.C. studio with VOA reporter Kelly Jean Kelly. Kelly has just returned from a road trip, or more formally, an expedition, from the American West. But before we continue, I have a language question: How is an expedition different from a road trip or business trip?

KELLY: Oh, that’s a good question. Well, a road trip is usually just for fun. And a business trip is usually for a specific purpose related to your job. So you might go on a business trip to attend a meeting or a conference.

KELLY: But an expedition is really more like an adventure. It’s usually longer than a business trip. And it usually is more for the purpose of learning new information. And in fact, we’ve been talking about the Lewis and Clark expedition -- another name for the expedition is the “Corps of Discovery.”

ANNA: The phrase “Corps of Discovery”: Can you talk about the word “corps.” Our listeners might think it is spelled quite differently than they’re hearing.

KELLY: Oh sure, yeah. Corps is spelled C-O-R-P-S, in this case, like the French word for “body.” And it usually means an organized part of a military group. So, it’s a military word. And that actually makes sense for the Corps of Discovery because it was a military expedition. Lewis and Clark were both soldiers. And most of the men who traveled with them were also soldiers. And the U.S. government paid for the trip. So, you can imagine it like a Special Forces operation.

ANNA: They also had this woman, Sacagawea, whose name we now know is pronounced …

KELLY: Sa-CAH-ga-wea.

ANNA: And she was for part of the trip pregnant. Is that correct?

KELLY: Yes! And that was also something I didn’t realize. And that was particularly meaningful to me because I, actually, am also pregnant, if I can share that with our listeners.

ANNA: Please do. How far along are you?

KELLY: Like Sacagawea I’m six months pregnant. And she was six months pregnant when she joined up with Lewis and Clark and the Corps of Discovery. And, in fact, Lewis and Clark actually helped deliver her baby. So for a good part of this trip she actually had an infant. And she carried him on her back over the Rocky Mountains and then along the Columbia River to the Pacific Ocean.

ANNA: That is fascinating. I actually had no idea as well. It’s almost as if the two of you were sharing a parallel experience while you were on your expedition, although, you probably had a more comfortable of a time.

KELLY: Correct. I thought fondly of Sacagawea as I was traveling in our rental car.

ANNA: So, what can look forward to and our listeners, what can they expect?

KELLY: Oh, we’re going to have a lot of great stuff. We’re going to have a video that talks about the Lewis and Clark expedition. And we’re going to have a lot of pictures. We’re going to have a slide show, including a slide show about Sacagawea. And we’re going to have some different articles about other things that were happening in the time. So, you can imagine and really understand why the Lewis and Clark expedition is so important in American history. It’s a great adventure story. And it’s interesting. And it’s a good character study. But it also really fits into a bigger narrative about U.S. history. So, we’d like to give all of that information to you.

ANNA: Well, thank you Kelly for sharing details, and we look forward to the finished product.

KELLY: Thanks, everybody! It was great to be here. Thanks, Anna!

关于探险的英语对话篇4:水上运动

Jana: So you mentioned hiking. I think South Africa must have a lot of outdoor activities, right?

嘉娜:你提到了徒步旅行。我想南非一定有很多户外活动,对吧?

Peter: Hmm.

彼得:对。

Jana: Some extreme sports?

嘉娜:极限运动吗?

Peter: Right, right. Yeah, it's, actually for a dry country it's interesting that it has so many water sports, people that really love water sports too especially on the eastern side of the country because it's tropical warm climate year round. The sea temperature is quite warm andat the same time it has a lot of really big waves so I think two of the world's biggest surfing events are held in South Africa yearly. The one is near Jeffreys Bay and the other one is near Durban and that's where all the world's surf champions come to surf and test their skills. But if you're not into surfing you can go wind surfing which actually on the eastern coast is really famous because of the strong winds over there and the relatively, not calm seas, but actually there's a lot of open plains to do wind surfing on so it's really famous for that. And then like skiing and water skiing of course really famous too. People really enjoy the water sports.

彼得:对,没错。一个干旱的国家有很多水上运动,这点很有意思,人们喜欢水上运动,南非东部地区的人们尤其喜欢水上运动,因为南非全年都是热带温暖气候。海水温度非常温暖,而且还有很多巨浪,所以世界两大年度冲浪赛事选在南非举行。其中一个赛事在杰佛瑞湾附近举行,另一个在德班附近举行,届时世界冲浪冠军都会来到这两个地方冲浪,测试他们的技巧。但是如果你不喜欢冲浪,你可以去玩帆板,东海岸的帆板运动很出名,因为那里有强风,海面相对不太平静,不过有很多开阔的地带可以进行帆板运动,那里非常出名。当然那里的滑冰和水上滑冰也很出名。人们非常喜欢水上运动。

Jana: Great. I also heard about diving.

嘉娜:太好了。我还听说过潜水。

Peter: Ah, yeah.

彼得:啊,对。

Jana: Diving in South Africa.

嘉娜:在南非潜水。

Peter: Yeah, that's, one, two interesting things. One is shark cage diving that people are really, have in recent years become interested in.

彼得:对,有两种有趣的潜水。其中之一是近年来越来越受欢迎的潜水观鲨。

Jana: That sounds scary.

嘉娜:听起来好可怕。

Peter: I think it is. One of the, actually the breeding colonies of the great white shark is in South Africa, I think the other one is in Australia, and people come there to go down in big steel cages to go and see some of these huge sharks and they dive with them and I think it's pretty dangerous but it's interesting for some people. Oh, the other thing that's really interesting diving in South Africa, also dangerous, is diving for treasure because of the ancient shipping route from Europe right past the Cape Point, the southern most shipping route in the world. There's a lot of ships that sank because of the terrible weather in centuries past, over the last, I guess, five hundred years ships have sunk around the tip of Africa and people, divers come there to dive and find out if they can get some, if they can get rich basically diving for treasure and you get a lot of historical excavation as well. It's pretty dangerous too because there are two converging sea...

彼得:我想是有点可怕。南非是大白鲨的其中一个繁殖地,另一个繁殖地应该是在澳大利亚,人们去那里潜入一个大铁笼子,观赏大白鲨,他们和鲨鱼一起潜水,我想那非常危险,不过对有些人来说很有意思。南非另外一种非常有意思的潜水也很危险,就是潜水寻宝,因为古代从欧洲出发的航线要经过好望角,那里是世界上航线的最南端。过去几个世纪以来,我想大概是过去500多年来,有很多船只因为恶劣的天气在非洲的南端沉没,潜水者会去那里潜水,寻找宝藏,希望能变得富有,那里也有很多考古挖掘工作。其实那非常危险,因为那是两个海洋汇集……

Jana: Currents.

嘉娜:水流。

Peter: Currents that meet and the one is warm and the one is cold so you have a really interesting combination of natural weather patterns at the same place so I guess a lot of ships sank because of all the storms in that area.

彼得:那是水流汇合的地方,其中一股水流是温暖的,另一股是寒冷的,两种气候模式在同一个地方结合在一起,所以我认为那个地区的风暴是造成大量船只沉没的原因。

Jana: Wow, so treasure diving or wreck diving sounds more fun than shark diving.

嘉娜:哇哦,潜水寻宝和打捞潜水听起来比潜水观鲨更有趣。

Peter: I think so too but it depends on your interest I guess.

彼得:我也是这样认为的,不过这要看你对哪个感兴趣。
