Daniel: So how about the weather in Argentina? 丹尼尔:阿根廷的天气怎么样?
Valeria: Well the weather in Argentina depends on the part of Argentina that we are talking about.
瓦莱里娅:那要看阿根廷的哪个地区了。
Daniel: Uh-uh.
丹尼尔:嗯。
Valeria: For instance, the north is very dry and extreme.
瓦莱里娅:比如,阿根廷北部地区的天气干燥又极端。
Daniel: OK.
丹尼尔:好。
Valeria: Like in summer, the temperature can go till forty, forty five and very dry.
瓦莱里娅:夏天的温度可以达到40或是45度,非常干燥。
Daniel: Wow.
丹尼尔:哇。
Valeria: Right and you can have like minus zeros, minus zero temperatures in winter as well but very, very dry. In the east it's tropical, mainly summer most of the year, a lot of rain, everything is green.
瓦莱里娅:嗯,冬天的温度在零下,但也非常干燥。阿根廷东部地区是热带气候,一年中大部分时间都是夏季,降水很多,到处都是绿色。
Daniel: Wow.
丹尼尔:哇。
Valeria: The center where Buenos Aires, the capital, is located is moderated but Patagonia which is the south of Argentina is very cold, dry and there is snow.
瓦莱里娅:布宜诺斯艾利斯位于阿根廷中部地区,气候温和,但是位于阿根廷南部的巴塔哥尼亚则非常寒冷、干燥,会下雪。
Daniel: OK.
丹尼尔:好。
Valeria: Which means that in the same moment we can be, if you are in the north it will be very dry and hot or it could be snowing or it could be raining in a rainforest.
瓦莱里娅:这意味着,在同一时间,北部地区天气非常干燥又炎热,而雨林地区则会下雪或下雨。
Daniel: Wow. Do you get, when you said extreme weather, do you get this thunderstorm, thunder lighting?
丹尼尔:哇。你刚刚说极端天气,那阿根廷有这种雷暴天气吗?
Valeria: It's not common, maybe it's like once in a while a thunderstorm.
瓦莱里娅:这种天气不太常见,可能偶尔会有一次雷暴天气。
Daniel: OK.
丹尼尔:好。
Valeria: But not more than this. We don't have El Nino and monsoon, this kind of things or rainy season. We don't have this kind of weather.
瓦莱里娅:但并不常见。我们没有厄尔尼诺现象,也不属于季风气候,没有雨季。所以没有这种天气情况。
Daniel: What happens when you get thunderstorms? What happens with the people? Do you like them? Do you get scared?
丹尼尔:那遇到雷暴天气会怎样?人们会怎么样?是喜欢这种天气还是会害怕?
Valeria: I think that if you are a kid, you get a little scared because you are not used to but if you are an adult you are cool.
瓦莱里娅:我想孩子可能会有些害怕,因为不适应这种天气,不过如果是成年人,那就没什么了。
Daniel: OK. How about you?
丹尼尔:好。那你呢?
Valeria: I had a very bad experience that was like I experienced a twister when I was a kid.
瓦莱里娅:我有过非常糟糕的经历,我小时候经历过龙卷风。
Daniel: Wow.
丹尼尔:哇。
Valeria: That was kind of unusual, very unusual in my country and so I get a little scared.
瓦莱里娅:这在我们国家非常罕见,所以我有点儿害怕。
Daniel: OK. I hope it doesn't really happen any more.
丹尼尔:好。我希望那不会再发生了。 |
