英文原版对话1000个:927 Net Ball（在线收听）

Dai: So Naomi, you’re from Wales and you’re eleven. So what does an eleven-year old girl do for fun in Wales?

Naomi: I do music. I play the piano and the violin and I play sports: netball.

Dai: Netball? What’s that?

Naomi: Yeah, it’s like a basketball a bit, but mostly girls play it. You have to...you have two teams and you have to try and get the ball in each others’ nets.

Dai: Oh OK, so it’s just like basketball? You bounce it around and...

Naomi: Well, you don’t really bounce it that much. You can only bounce it once.

Dai: Oh really?

Naomi: Yeah.

Dai: Oh OK, I see. And you play it indoors then or...?

Naomi: Yeah mostly indoors - in the summer sometimes outdoors.

Dai: Oh OK, sounds good. Yeah so, you can only bounce it once?

Naomi: Yeah, there’s three different passes you can do. One is you use a bounce called “bounce pass” and you can only use a bounce once.

Dai: OK, to pass it to your teammate.

Naomi: Yeah.

Dai: OK, and what are the other passes?

Naomi: There’s “chest pass”.

Dai: And what’s that?

Naomi: It’s just sort of a straight pass from your chest to the other person’s chest.

Dai: Oh OK.

Naomi: And “shoulder pass” which is sort of a lob.

Dai: Like a lob, you throw it over your shoulder kind of thing. And so, it’s just...well like basketball then somebody throws it in the net and how many points do you get?

Naomi: It’s one point for every net - every ball that you get in the net.

Dai: Oh OK. and how long is a game of netball?

Naomi: Probably about an hour.

Dai: Oh really? So like half an hour each side or...?

Naomi: Yeah, I think so.

Dai: OK, and how many people are there on a team?

Naomi: Seven.

Dai: Seven?

Naomi: Yeah.

Dai: OK, nice.
