The Soccer Stadium

足球场
Kathy and Evan take a look at Amsterdam's soccer stadium.
K:Man, this place is big!
E:It has to be. Soccer is the number one sport throughout Europe. In the States we have the Big Three: baseball, football, and basketball, but there's only the Big One here in Europe: soccer.
K:Can you play soccer, Evan?
E:I never have. I think my high school had a team, but I went out for baseball. Did you join any sports teams in school, Kathy?
K:In high school I went out for track. The 400- and 800-meter runs.
E:Wow! Those are tough races.
K:Yeah. That's probably why I didn't do very well at them.
E:It's more important to enjoy the game and get stronger from sports than to perform well in them.
K:Were you a good baseball player?
E:I was so-so. Anyway, let's exercise a little. Last one to the goal post there is a rotten egg!

凯西和艾凡参观一下阿姆斯特丹的足球场。
凯西:天啊,这地方真大!
艾凡:它一定得这么大。足球是欧洲最受欢迎的一项运动。在美国,我们有三大运动项目:棒球、美式足球和篮球,但是在欧洲只有一大运动项目:足球。
凯西:艾凡,你会踢足球吗?
艾凡:我从来没踢过。我想我念的高中有一支足球校队,但是我加入了棒球队。凯西,你有没有参加学校的任何运动队伍呢?
凯西:高中时我加入了田径队──四百公尺和八百公尺赛跑。
艾凡:哇!那些都是蛮艰辛的速度竞赛。
凯西:没错。那可能是我没办法在这两项运动中表现优异的原因。
艾凡:享受运动的乐趣和藉此强身比在运动项目上表现优异更为重要。
凯西:你棒球打得很好吗?
艾凡:我打得普普通通。不管怎样,咱们来运动一下吧。最后一个跑到终点的人是王八蛋!
