实战口语情景对话 第149期:挪威的夏天 Norwegian Summer

 Todd: Christian¹ can you talk about the summers in Norway.

Christian，你能谈谈挪威的夏季吗？

Christian: Yeah, a lot people think the summers in Norway are really cold, but actually they're not. Maybe everything, the weather is changing because of El Nino effect, I don't know, but we've had, for the last four or five years, we've had pretty warm summers. It gets close to 30 degrees centigrade², and which is enjoyable I guess, and there's no humidity³. It's nice and dry and it's just pleasant weather really. Yeah, and what we do in the summers is different. Some people have a house on small islands on the coast, or some people have a house on the mountains, and you can either go to the mountains and enjoy the lakes, the forests, or you can go to the coast and enjoy the beach, the water, go fishing, so there's plenty of things to do in the summer, yeah, and we get a lot of tourist coming in the summer though, because it's not that hot. It's just pleasant and enjoyable.

好的。很多人都认为挪威的夏季是非常冷的，但实际不是这样的。大概是由于厄尔尼诺现象，一切都在变，至少天气是在转暖。我也说不好，但在过去的四五年中，夏天确实比较暖和。都快接近30度了，我想这个温度刚好会让人觉得很舒服，而且不是很潮湿。天气不错也干燥，是很宜人的。对了，我们在夏天还有很多不同的活动。有些人会在海岸边的小岛上搭建一所小房子，而有些人会在山上搭房子。你可以爬爬山，欣赏下湖泊，看看树林，或者你可以去海边，河边，钓钓鱼，总之就是在夏天会有很多可以做的事儿。而且挪威的夏天会迎来很多游客，因为天气还不算很热，刚好会让人感到很舒服。

Todd: Wow, sounds like a good place.

哇，听起来像个不错的地方。

Christian: Yeah, it is.

对，就是个不错的地方。
