那是最大的？

对，那是最大的！总共算下来，挪威有四百五十多万人。

Todd: That must be nice being from a small country, I mean big in land but small in people.

来自一个小国家一定很不错，我的意思是土地很广但人却很少的国家。

Christian: It's nice. It's not as crowded as Tokyo to put it that way.

是不错。这样说来，它应该没有东京人口多。

对，东京人口差不多是挪威的三倍。

Christian: Three times the population of the country, yeah.

对，是这个国家人口的三倍。

哇！那太令人难以置信了。挪威最好的是什么？

Christian: The best thing about Norway, the clean air, the blond² girls, and the mountains.

挪威最好的一点是有着清新空气，金发女孩还有壮丽山河。

Todd: Do you go in the mountains a lot? Do you mountain climb or hike?

你经常去山上吗？你是爬山还是远足？

Christian: I ski. I ski as often as I can. Probably once a year I go, try to go skiing when I home, and it's great, I enjoy it, I've been doing it all my life so, yeah.

我滑雪。我只要有时间就会去滑雪。我在家的时候，也许一年会去一次。真的很好，我非常喜欢滑雪，我会一直坚持下去。

Todd: So this is downhill skiing.

那么这就是滑降滑雪？

Christian: Downhill skiing, yeah.

对，滑降滑雪。

Todd: Do you ever do cross-country skiing?

你玩过越野滑雪吗？

Christian: Sometimes, I used to do a lot of cross-country skiing when I was younger, but as I got older, it was more downhill skiing. It's a bit easier. Less physical.

偶尔会的，小的时候经常玩，但我长大后玩的更多的就是滑降滑雪了。这个容易一些，而且不用耗太多的体力。

Todd: OK, thanks Christian.

好的，谢谢你，Christian.
