⊙ By Anna
12月正是滑雪的好季節(jié),當(dāng)然也是學(xué)習(xí)滑雪詞匯的好時(shí)機(jī)啦。學(xué)幾個(gè)基本詞匯,到滑雪場上秀一下你的本領(lǐng)吧。
Today we’re going to go through some very basic vocabulary for when you are skiing or snowboarding.
So, let’s go through the equipment. Of course, you have a pair of skis. One ski, two skis, a pair of skis. Or you might have a board, a snowboard. On both boards and skis the places where you put your feet and lock yourself in are called bindings. And of course, you have to have special boots for the bindings, so you have ski boots or snowboarding boots.
Then you’re going to have to wear the right clothing. So on your bottom half you wear salopettes. I’ve got some nice bright green salopettes. And then you are also going to need a ski jacket,usually waterproof[防水的], with lots of pockets, and tight around the wrists and around the middle to stop snow from going inside. And you’re gonna need a pair of gloves. You’re also going to need a neck scarf. You might need a facemask to keep your face warm.You’re also going to need a pair of goggles, and a helmet to protect your head. Some people don’t wear a helmet. They just wear a woolly hat to keep their head warm, but a helmet is safer.
And then when you get up onto the mountain, hopefully you’ll have snow and hopefully the snow won’t be so hard that is turned into ice, and the places that are set out for you to ski, the roads for skiing are called piste, so you ski on piste. If you decide to go off the road for skiing, then you’re skiing off-piste so you’re going off-piste. It can be dangerous going off-piste if you don’t know what you’re doing.
You have the mountain peaks. And to get you to the top of the mountain, you’ll take a chair lift, which is a lift that you sit in. You pull the bar down in front of you. Sometimes you’ll get what’s called a bubble lift, which is a lift that you get inside of that protects you from the elements[惡劣天氣]. And if you’re unlucky, you may have to take the drag lift, which is just a rope that you hold onto. You put between your legs and it drags you up. It’s quite hard work.
So that’s our short vocabulary lesson for today. I hope you found it helpful. Now, I am going to board down the mountain and get the chair lift back up and hope that I don’t fall over.
