M: Hey, Sue. Did you catch the game last night?
W: Uh, what game? Ms Baltimore defeated Texas by 17 points!
W: Um… and what sport are we talking about here?
M: Football of course!
W: Oh, football. Football is cool. I usually try to catch the World Cup finals.
M: No, I’m talking about American football. The World Cup is soccer.
W: Oh, I understand. I can’t say I’m a big fan. In my country, football doesn’t have a really big following over there.
M: So you prefer soccer to football?
W: Yes, I think so. But to be perfectly honest, I’m not really a sports nut (狂热者). When I was in high school, I played on the school volleyball team. Are you a diehard (顽固的) football fan?
M: Oh, certainly. I wouldn’t miss a game for the world. My girlfriend says I have an addiction. And actually, if I had to choose between her and my game, I’d probably pick football.
W: It seems Americans are very passionate (热爱的) about sports. Is this just a part of your culture?
M: Oh, yeah! I think the love of sports starts when kids are very young. Americans come from many different backgrounds, so I guess sports are something we can all enjoy together.
W: So sport is a way for people to bond?
M: Yeah. During holidays like Thanksgiving, my family will sit around in front of the television and watch a football game together. It’s a social occasion to enjoy the game and each other’s company.
W: That sounds good. Much more than a sport.
M: I think in America people are often loyal to their regional team. In college you root (用欢呼支持) for your school’s team, and then when you settle down somewhere you follow that area’s team.
W: So what’s your favorite team?
M: I actually have two favorites. I grew up in New York, so I’m first and foremost a New York Jets fan. But I went to school in Baltimore, so I also like the Baltimore Ravens.
W: What happens when the teams play against each other?
M: I usually support the New York Jets. But if the Ravens wins, it’s not too bad.
W: I have to confess (承认) I don’t actually understand how American football works. It kind of looks like a war to me.
M: Actually, football is like a war. Each team tries to advance the ball through the enemy territory to the end zone. It evolved from the English game of rugby, which is also kind of like a battle between two armies.
W: I have to admit that you are a real sports fan and know a lot about it. Thanks for your sharing!
