【双语对话】

Riley: Woo this feels so refreshing. How often did you come here when you were living in the city?

嚯感觉好清爽。你还住在这座城市时，多久来跑一次？

Coco: I would say about twice a week? I usually come on weekday mornings and not so much on the weekends. I get distracted very easily when there are people passing me all the time.

我估计一周两次？我一般工作日的白天来，周末一般不来。当总有人经过我时，我很容易走神。

Riley: You are not a slow runner. How come you get people passing you?

你跑得不慢。怎么会总有人超过你？

Coco: Oh I meant people in general, not just runners. There are a lot of bikers in the park as well. It’s pretty scary when there are bikes whooshing past you without giving you a warning first.

哦我是泛指的所有人，不是说跑步者。公园里也有很多骑行者。当他们没给你警告，突然从身边嗖嗖路过时，很吓人。

Riley: Yeah, that is annoying. You know what else annoys me? Those runners who take themselves way too seriously, and the big groups of dudes who run half naked.

啊是挺烦人的。你知道还有什么让我恼火吗？那些特那自己当回事儿的跑者，和半身赤裸的一组男性跑者。

Coco: Oh my god I hate the naked guys! They probably don’t realize it, but they reek!

天啊我讨厌光膀子的男人！他们应该意识不到，他们很臭！

Riley: Fingers crossed that naked guys don’t come running on a Tuesday.

祈祷一下光膀子男人们周二不会来跑步。
