Going to a Baseball Game英语短文阅读带翻译

 　　Going to a Baseball Game去看棒球比赛

　　Mike was sitting at home with Maria one Saturday afternoon. The two of them were feeling bored. The television was on in front of them but there wasn't anything interesting to watch. Suddenly a commercial began to play. "Come this Saturday evening to watch the Los Angeles Dodgers play against their rivals," the voice in the commercial said. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking," Mike asked Maria. "Let's go to the baseball game tonight?" Maria asked. Mike smiled and nodded his head.

　　一个星期六的下午，迈克和玛丽亚坐在家里，坐在电视机前的他们两人感到无聊，没有什么有趣的东西看，突然播出了一段广告。“这个星期六晚上将有一场洛杉矶队对他们的对手的比赛。”广告里说。“你知道我在想什么？”迈克问玛丽亚。”今晚我们去看棒球赛吧？”玛丽亚问。迈克笑着点了点头。

　　Mike had never gone to a baseball game and neither had Maria. Baseball is known as America's favorite pastime. Mike liked watching baseball on television from time to time. He had always wanted to go to a stadium to witness a game firsthand. He had heard from his co-workers that it was a lot fun going to a baseball game. Although Maria did not like watching sports as much as Mike did, she was still excited about going to a stadium to watch a baseball game. She was curious about how much tickets were, so she asked Mike the question."

　　迈克从未去过棒球场，玛丽亚也没有。棒球是美国人最喜欢的消遣活动，迈克每当在电视上看棒球时，他一直想去一个体育场见证一场比赛。他从他的同事那里听到，这是一个非常有趣的棒球比赛。虽然玛丽亚不像迈克一样那么喜欢看体育，但她对去体育场看棒球比赛还是感到蛮兴奋的。她很好奇门票大概多少钱，于是她问迈克这个问题。

　　Are baseball tickets expensive, Mike?" she asked. "They're not cheap unfortunately," Mike answered. Mike then told her not to worry because he had been saving money for an occasion such as this one. As the day progressed, Mike and Maria did some chores around the house, and changed into their clothes for the night. The baseball game started in a few hours. Mike and Maria had to leave early to buy the tickets.

　　“棒球票贵吗，迈克？”她问。“不幸的是，不便宜呢。”迈克回答道。迈克然后告诉她不要担心，因为他为这样重要的场合攒了些钱。时间一点点过去，迈克和玛丽亚正在家做家务活，为那晚准备些衣服。这场棒球比赛还有几个小时就要开始了。迈克和玛丽亚不得不提前出门去买票。

　　They soon took off to the stadium. The line was long when they got to the stands where they sold tickets. Mike and Maria got in line and waited for nearly one hour before they bought their tickets. After they bought their tickets, they went inside the stadium and went to their seats. Their seats were rather close to the baseball field. Mike thought they had the best seats in the stadium. The game didn't start for another thirty minutes.

　　他们很快就到了体育场。到达后，他们看到排了一条很长的队伍。迈克和玛丽亚在排队等待了近一个小时才买了他们的票，买了票后，他们进了体育场，坐在了座位上。座位非常接近棒球场，迈克认为他们在球场上最好的位置。比赛还有不到三十分钟就要开始了。
