帆船冲浪出海日光浴...这是长岛的夏天

我们前面讲了夏令营讲了度假,眼花缭乱的,那如果足不出户,就在家附近,有什么有趣的事情干嘛?

L:Of course, there are many. However, we Long Islanders(长岛人) love the beach the most. The beach and ocean is our favorite place to go. My dad loves to pack home made drinks and food in a cooler (冰桶)and we spend hours there.


Q: what makes beach so fascinating?

L: The ocean is beautiful. The water is blue, cool, and refreshing. The sand is soft and makes a perfect setting to relax. The sky is clear and and the sunshine always warms our bodies.

Q:蓝色的大海,柔软的沙滩,温暖的阳光,这使人放松。大家做什么呢?


L:My sister and I love jumping up and down in the ocean’s waves. Sometimes we see crabs and other small ocean life. Seagulls (海鸥) hover low in the sky. We once saw whales (鲸鱼)swimming not too far away from us. My mom loves reading under an umbrella.  People can walk along the beach, play volleyball or frisbee (飞碟), or chat with friends. We all find something interesting to do. The ocean provides a wonderful setting for different activities.


Q: 长岛人最喜欢去海滩晒太阳,聊天,散步,读书,游泳,打球,玩飞碟, frisbee is 飞碟。小孩子们喜欢在水里逐浪,看偶尔冒出海滩的螃蟹,有壳的小动物,海鸥低低地飞,还偶尔会有鲸鱼呢!这太有趣了。

L:The beach is open to all people. Long Island is surrounded (围绕)by water. People can get to their favorite beach in only 20 minutes by car, most of the time. We love the beach so much that we would like to spend all possible time there. We all get tanned(皮肤晒黑成阳光色) during summer.

Q: Aren’t you afraid of sunburn(晒伤)?

L: We apply layers of sunscreen(防晒) before we go out, and reapply (重新涂上)again and again. It does help a lot. Plus the breeze (微风) cools down the temperature, so it doesn’t feel burning hot(灼热).

Q: have you tried water sport?

L: My mom once signed me up for a water sport summer camp. We learned how to sail a boat. Younger kids have smaller boats while older kids have bigger boats. We learned how to set up and steer (掌控方向)a sailboat. It was hard and took a lot of work. But the instructor followed us in a motor boat to make sure we are all safe.


Q: 长岛有很多水上活动, 驾驶帆船就是很流行的一样,在长岛最东边面对一望无际的大西洋也是冲浪Surfing运动的圣地。很多家庭还喜欢出海钓鱼,也可以朋友们合租大一些的船在日落时候出海尽赏海上落日的美景。

在海边长大是长岛孩子的幸福。这一期,我们专门拿出来说海滩生活。毕竟,夏日与大海密不可分。
