Todd: So, Asako we're talking about Alaska. Now, in Alaska, obviously there's lots of wilderness. Some people say it's the most wild area left in the wolrd. Did you get a chance to go camping or hiking?
托德：麻子，我们来聊聊阿拉斯加州。阿拉斯加有很多原野。有人说阿拉斯加是世界上最原始的地区。你有去露营或是徒步旅行吗？
Asako: Oh, yeah. Camping almost every single weekend. That's a joke, but... Yeah, many times. I camped and of course people enjoy hiking, rock climbing. If you're not really an outdoor type, you can enjoy barbecuing, but yeah, some people do enjoy outdoor.
麻子：有。我基本上每周末都会去露营。开玩笑的，我去过很多次。我去过露营，人们喜欢徒步旅行和攀岩。如果你不喜欢室外运动，那也可以享受烧烤，不过有人非常喜欢室外活动。
Todd: Well, you know, Alaska is really famous for bears, so when you would go hiking or camping would ever see any bears?
托德：阿拉斯加的熊非常有名，你去远足和露营时有看到过熊吗？
Asako: Of course.
麻子：当然看见过。
Todd: Seriously?
托德：真的吗？
Asako: Yeah. Of course. Wolves. Bears. You can name it.
麻子：对，我看到过狼和熊。你能说出名字的基本都有。
Todd: Bears. Wolves.
托德：熊和狼。
Asako: Yeah.
麻子：对。
Todd: And people still go out there?
托德：那人们还是会到那些地方去？
Asako: Of course.
麻子：对啊。
Todd: Yeah, but aren't you afraid of the bears?
托德：那你们不怕熊吗？
Asako: Well, you have to know what you are supposed to do, but yeah.
麻子：你要清楚自己要怎么做。
Todd: Well, what do you do?
托德：那你会怎么做？
Asako: Well, you have to be careful about what you would do with your food. You know. You don't put your leftovers anywhere you like. You have to be really careful with that, and also you have to know how you are supposed to act when you actually meet a bear when you are hiking, but if you have the right knowledge, you should be OK. Of course, still there are accidents but you should be OK.
麻子：处理食物的时候要小心。不能把剩菜随便乱放。在这方面一定要非常小心，另外，你还要清楚在远足时遇到熊要怎么做，如果有正确的知识，那就不会有危险。当然是有事故发生，不过一般没什么危险。
Todd: Wow! So what do you they tell you to do if you see a bear?
托德：哇！那如果看到熊要怎么办？
Asako: Well, you're supposed to wave your hands.
麻子：嗯，要挥手。
Todd: Wave your hands. Up high?
托德：挥手，在空中挥手？
Asako: Up high.
麻子：在空中挥手。
Todd: So you seem taller?
托德：这样让你看起来更高吗？
Asako: You seem taller and also bears have never seen animals doing stuff like that, so they get scared and leave. That's usually but when bears are really hungry, then you still, yeah, so there are bears that are really hungry and maybe look crazy, so you're still taking a chance, but.
麻子：是看起来更高，而且熊从来没看到过动物这么做，所以它们会感到害怕，然后离开。一般情况下可以这么做，但是在熊非常饥饿的情况下，它们会变得非常疯狂，不过你也可以这么做去碰碰运气。
Todd: Well, what about a wolf? Or wolves? Do you do the same thing for wolves?
托德：那遇到狼或狼群呢？也像遇到熊那样做吗？
Asako: Well, actually, the only wolves I've seen was in the Denali Park. I was in a car, so I didn't have any problems, so I really don't know what I am supposed to do when I meet wolves.
麻子：我只在丹那利国家公园看到过一次狼。当时我在车里，所以没发生什么事，不过我真的不知道要是遇到狼群应该怎么办。
Todd: Now for the local people, what do they consider more dangerous, a wolf or a bear?
托德：那对当地人来说，熊和狼哪个更危险？
Asako: You don't see many wolves, but you do see a lot of bears so maybe bears.
麻子：一般不会看到太多狼，但是会看到很多熊，所以可能是熊更危险。
Todd: Oh, yeah. Well, they both sound scary to me.
托德：好，对我来说狼和熊都很可怕。
