英語聽力頻道為大家整理的人人英語聽力網(wǎng)站:沒有母牛的新農(nóng)場,供大家參考:)
A man from up state had always dreamed of owning his own cattle ranch, and finally made enough money to buy himself the spread of his dreams in Texas.
有個人住在遠(yuǎn)離大城市的地區(qū),一直夢想著擁有一座屬于自己的養(yǎng)牛場。他最后賺夠了錢,在德州給自己買了一個夢想中的農(nóng)場。
"So, what did you name the ranch?" asked his best friend when he flew out to visit.
“那你給這座農(nóng)場取什么名字?”他的朋友搭機(jī)來探望他時問道。
"We had a heck of a time," admitted the new cowboy. "Couldn't agree on anything."
"的確有那么一陣子,"這個新牛仔承認(rèn)道:“大家一直無法取得共識?!?BR> We finally settled on the "big and beautiful Outback—but not too far outback—Texan ranch."
最后我們敲定“又大又美的內(nèi)地——但不是太遠(yuǎn)的內(nèi)地——德州人農(nóng)場”這個名字。
"Wow. That is a long name for a ranch," said his friend. "So where are all the cows?"
“哇,對農(nóng)場來說,這可是很長的名字哩?!彼笥颜f:“那母牛都跑哪里去了?”
"None of'em survived the branding."
“母牛身上烙印了農(nóng)場的名字后,一只都沒活下來?!?BR>
