【流行美语】254:输给我;输不起的人(1/2)


Larry和李华在纽约参加长跑比赛。李华今天要学两个常用语,eat my dust(输给我)和sore loser(输不起的人).

只需要听写文中出现的【男生说的】英文部分,中文对话部分(包括里面个别的英语词组)不需要听写!!
Hints:
Li Hua

When someone says "eat my dust," they are saying to their competitors in a race situation that they are confident they are going to win the race, leaving everyone else far behind.
Well, when you run, you kick up dust from the road. So, if I run very fast and you are behind me, you'll be getting my dust in your face and eating my dust.
But I've been running for years, and I've been in many races. And most of the time, the other runners end up eating my dust.
Now that I think about it, Li Hua, I prefer to think of myself as the cheetah of the running world. As the fastest animal on land, all the other animals eat the cheetah's dust.
Actually, Li Hua. I am just joking. I'm not really the cheetah of the running world. There are so many runners in this race, I am pretty sure I will be eating someone else's dust.
You are right, Li Hua. And since this is a race for charity, it doesn't matter if you eat my dust or I eat yours. In the end, everybody wins.LL: It's a good thing you've been training for this race, Li Hua. But you are still going to eat my dust.
LH: Eat your dust? Yuck. 吃你的土?这是什么意思啊!
LL: When someone says "eat my dust," they are saying to their competitors in a race situation that they are confident they are going to win the race, leaving everyone else far behind.
LH: 赢比赛跟让别人吃土又有什么关系呢?
LL: Well, when you run, you kick up dust from the road. So, if I run very fast and you are behind me, you'll be getting my dust in your face and eating my dust.
LH: 噢,我明白了,跑在前面的人掀起的尘土,会落在后面人的脸上,原来是从这儿来的。不过,Larry, 我为今天的比赛已经训练两个多月了,也许你会eat my dust呢!
LL: But I've been running for years, and I've been in many races. And most of the time, the other runners end up eating my dust.
LH: 那也许你能象环法自行车大赛七连冠阿姆斯特朗一样,让其他人都ate his dust.
LL: Now that I think about it, Li Hua, I prefer to think of myself as the cheetah of the running world. As the fastest animal on land, all the other animals eat the cheetah's dust.
LH: 你还真自信!大话说出来,可千万别落在别人后面噢。
LL: Actually, Li Hua. I am just joking. I'm not really the cheetah of the running world. There are so many runners in this race, I am pretty sure I will be eating someone else's dust.
LH: 输赢并不重要,重在参与嘛!
LL: You are right, Li Hua. And since this is a race for charity, it doesn't matter if you eat my dust or I eat yours. In the end, everybody wins.
LH: 对呀,比赛收益全都要用来帮助无家可归的人。Okay, Larry. 准备好,你要eat my dust了!
