1、标题:美语三级跳 Go English:006A 音乐单元: 初级课程听力内容:Ernie和Beth是大学同学,俩人想组个乐队。 不过,他们要先了解一下彼此的音乐口味是否相同。Professor: So, lets find out what kind of music they like.Ernie: So Beth, what kind of music do you listen to?Beth: I listen to a lot of hip hop. What about you?Ernie: I mostly listen to pop music, but I like a l
2、ot of different stuff.Beth: Yes, me too. I mostly listen to hip hop, but there are many genres of music I like.Professor: So Winnie, did you hear the music genres each of them likes?Professor Bowman, 我正想问您,genre是什么意思啊?Professor: It means style or kind. For example, you can say a music genre or a mov
3、ie genre.噢,原来 genre g-e-n-r-e就是类型,流派的意思。这么说,Beth 常听的是hip hop,也就是嘻哈音乐。而Ernie常听pop,流行乐。Hmm .我觉得他们的口味差得挺远的。Professor: But are those the only kinds of music they listen to?那倒不是。他们俩人都喜欢很多其它类型的音乐,也许还是能找到共同之处的。Professor: Well, lets see. In the next section listen for the phrase to get into something, which
4、 means to start to like something.Ernie: How did you get into hip hop?Beth: Well, all my friends listen to it, so I became a big fan too.Ernie: Who is your favorite hip hop artist?Beth: Im a big fan of Snoop Dogg.Professor: Winnie, why does Beth like hip hop?她说,她喜欢上嘻哈乐是因为她的朋友都爱听这种音乐。而且,她还是Snoop Dogg
5、 “史努比狗狗”的粉丝。我可不喜欢Snoop Dogg,我觉得他早就过时了。Professor: Well, even though you dont like him, Snoop Dogg is still popular. Now lets find out why Ernie likes pop music.Beth: What about you, Ernie? How did you get into pop music?Ernie: Well I always hear it on the radio, so I started to get into it.Beth: Yeah
6、, if something is on the radio it must be really good.Ernie: I totally agree!Professor: So did you hear how Ernie got into pop music, Winnie?他呀,是因为老听广播里播的流行歌曲,所以就喜欢上了。要让我说啊,他跟Beth都没有什么音乐鉴赏能力,只会跟着别人走,人云亦云。Professor: So if they started a band, you wouldnt go to see them?肯定不会!不过,我们还是先来听听他们喜欢什么乐队吧!Beth:
7、 What are the pop groups that you like?Ernie: Oh, there are so many good ones! I loved the Spice Girls. They were so cool!Beth: I agree! I cried for a week when they broke up.Ernie: I was really sad too, but at least I can still listen to their CDs.什么什么? Ernie最喜欢的乐队居然是辣妹组合!他们俩的音乐品味还真是有问题。不过,Professo
8、r Bowman, 一个乐队难道也能像情侣那样break up, 分手么?Professor: Yes. When a band decides not to play together anymore, you can say it broke up.我明白了,break up在这里是 “解散”的意思。难道Ernie就没想到,辣妹组合解散是因为她们太烂吗?Professor: I dont know . some of their songs were good.Wait, professor Bowman, 难道你也是她们的粉丝?Professor: Of course not! I wa
9、s . uh . just listening to some of their songs to prepare for this class.Sure .Beth: You know Ernie, it seems we both like the same artists.Ernie: Yes, we do. I think we have the same musical tastes.Beth: But if were going to start a band, we have to be able to sing and dance. Can you do that?Ernie:
10、 Im not a very good singer, but Im a really great dancer! I love hip hop dancing.Beth: Great! Ill sing, and you can dance in our band.Professor: Winnie, is Ernie a better singer or dancer?他说自己歌唱得一般,可舞跳得特别棒。不过,我看Beth和Ernie的音乐品味都不怎么样,肯定没人去看。Professor: Well, well have to listen next time to find out!这次的美语三级跳就播送到这里。
