A: So Sorie, talking about ocean sports and being on the ocean. Maybe youcould talk about your ocean swimming experience in Ogasawara.
索里,我们来谈谈海上运动以及在海上游玩。也许你可以谈谈你在小笠原群岛游泳的经历。
B: Yeah, I love swimming, you know. It's so peaceful to be there in theocean. And the ocean in Ogasawara was very clear and you could see so manyfishes and I'd love to go swimming and immersed in the ocean. It was likeanother world. It was very beautiful. But there was one time—oh, that time.
B: My friends had come to visit and so, we went fishing. But before theystarted fishing, I decided to go for a swim. And I swam, and I could see all theway to the bottom of the ocean. And I see this fish but they're actually notfish, they were sharks. They were white-tipped sharks.
B: There were four of them at the bottom of the ocean. And I just rememberthat one you have to do is to keep calm. So I did that. I swam out. I told myfriends, "There are four sharks down there, so get me out of here." So they gotme out of there but my heart was beating so fast. I was so scared.
B: Well, they're not dangerous. They might be able to like bite a finger offbut I didn't want that to happen either. So as soon as I saw them, I came out ofthe place. Yeah, but that was so scary.
A: Wow. Oh as far, it sounds beautiful and amazing and dangerous all the sametime.
哇哦。目前来看,美丽又迷人的景色和危险交织在一起。
B: That's right. So Mark, what about you? Do you have any encounters withfish?
没错。马克,你呢?你遇到过鱼儿吗?
A: With fish? Well, I remember fish in—don't you remember when we saw ittogether? We were swimming in that beach called Kominato, and we swam out aroundthose rocks where we always went. How am I looking a pair of snorkels on it, sopeaceful and pretty and like just tranquil and I'm looking at all the fish. Andthen suddenly, that freaky fish, it started staring at us. Do you rememberthat?
A: Huge eyes, and then he started coming towards us.
眼睛很大,然后它开始向我们游过来。
B: That's right. So in the middle of the ocean, we decided, okay, let's justsplit.
没错。当时我们在海中央,所以我们决定分开。
A: We were swimming away from it and it was swimming after us, this littlefish.
我们从那条鱼所在的地方游开,而它就在后面追我们,那是只小鱼。
B: It was very small. It was like 30 centimeters long but they're reallyscary.
对,是只非常小的鱼。大概只有30厘米长,不过它看上去非常可怕。
A: Yeah, we were quite far out from the beach and we did split, didn'twe?
对,我们离海滩很远,而且我们还分开了,对吧?
B: And then what happened?
然后发生了什么?
A: I went that way and you went that way. And just guess which way itwent?
我往一个方向游,你往另一个方向游。猜猜那只鱼游去了哪个方向?
B: My way.
我的方向。
A: And it just chased you all the way into the sea, into the beach.
它一直在海里追着你游,把你逼回了海滩上。
B: That's right. So I was swimming really quickly. I'm trying to get out ofthe beach and it was very close to me. And I thought it would bite my toes. Butit didn't do anything. But I can't forget that time that a small fish got me outof the ocean.
