你好呀，欢迎收听：英语考试Cat 🐱🐱🐱🐱
Have you ever been part of a sport team?
No, never. I'm really not into sports at all. In fact, I can't remember joining any sport teams growing up. I'm just terrible at pretty much every sport. For example, my friends would get so frustrated playing badminton with me because I could barely hit the birdie. It just wasn't an enjoyable experience for them or for myself.
- I'm really not into 我不太喜欢
- growing up 从小到大
- terrible at 不擅长
- frustrated 沮丧、泄气
- the birdie 羽毛球
- an enjoyable experience 一段愉快的经历
Are team sports popular in your culture?
Not really, though over the last decade or so they have become more popular. However, in saying that, sports like basketball and football have a significant following. And I would say that for basketball, probably the majority of teenagers and young adults have played at one time or another. Solo sporting activities, such as ping-pong, badminton, and even tennis tend to be more popular as far as people playing them. Lots of people also prefer casual solo activities like jogging or hiking instead.
- have become 已经变得

- the majority of 大多数
- Solo sporting activities 单人运动项目
- casual 休闲的
- jogging 慢跑
- hiking 徒步、远足
Do you like to watch team games? Why?
To be honest, not at all unless watching them live. Watching sports on TV, especially team sports, for me is really boring, but in a stadium is a different, forgive the pun, ball game. Though I might not fully understand all the rules and details of the sport, I adore soaking up the electric atmosphere of a live game. Earlier this month, for instance, I went to a college football match in an 80,000-capacity stadium, and it was incredible. Everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs, cheering for their team. It was like an extravaganza, so that made the whole event electrifying and exciting.
- watching them live 现场观看（比赛）
- a stadium 体育场
- forgive the pun 恕我玩个文字梗（pun 双关语）
- not fully understand 不完全理解
- soaking up the electric atmosphere 感受热烈激动的氛围
- football match 橄榄球赛
- 80,000-capacity stadium 可容纳 8 万人的体育场
- shouting at the top of their lungs 扯着嗓子呼喊
- cheering for their team 为他们支持的队伍加油
- an extravaganza 盛大精彩的活动
What are the differences between team sports and individual sports?
Team sports centre on collaboration. While individual talent matters, how well players cooperate as a group is equally vital. Individual sports are a different story as it all comes down to the player's own skill, stamina and mental strength. There's no teammate to rely on; success or failure falls squarely on the individual.
- centre on 以…… 为核心；围绕
- individual talent 个人天赋
- cooperate as a group 团队协作
- equally vital 同样重要
- a different story 另一回事、情况不一样
- all comes down to 归根结底在于
- mental strength 心理素质
- falls squarely on the individual 成败完全由个人承担
