第二段

布雷达:哦,那很有趣。那你为什么不给我讲讲那些比赛?我们从第一次开始说起。
6 .Dan: Well, the theme was entitled ‘Domestic Life’.
丹:嗯,主题是“家庭生活”。
7 .Breda: I see – so it had to be something related to the home?
布雷达:我明白了,所以它必须与家有关?
8 .Dan: Yeah. I chose to take a photo of a family sitting round the dinner table having a meal, and, um, I didn’t win, but I did get some feedback.
丹:是的。我选择拍了一张家人围坐在餐桌旁吃饭的照片,嗯,我没有赢,但是我得到了一些反馈。
9 .Breda: Oh, what did the judges say?
布雷达:哦,评委们说了什么?
10 .Dan: That it was too ‘busy’ as a picture.
丹:他们说这张照片过于“繁忙”。
11 .Breda: Aha – so it was the composition of the picture that they criticised?
布雷达:啊哈,所以他们批评的是照片的构图?
12 .Dan: That’s right – and once they’d told me that, I could see my mistake.
丹:没错,他们告诉我后,我就明白了我的错误。
13 .Breda: So what was the theme of the second competition?
布雷达:那么第二次比赛的主题是什么?
14 .Dan: Well, my university was on the coast and that area gets a lot of beautiful sunsets, so that was the theme.
嗯,我的大学位于海边,那个地区有很多美丽的日落,所以主题就是日落。
15 .Breda: Oh, sunsets, that’s a great theme.
布雷达:哦,日落,那是个很棒的主题。
16 .Dan: Yes. The instructions were to capture the clouds as well – it couldn’t just be blue sky and a setting sun.
丹:是的。指导要求捕捉到云朵,不能只是蓝天和落日。
17 .Breda: Sure, cause they give you all those amazing pinks and purples.
布雷达:当然,因为它们会呈现出惊人的粉色和紫色。
18 .Dan: Yeah – and I thought I’d done that well, but the feedback was that I should have waited a bit longer to get the shot.
丹:是的,我觉得我拍得不错,但反馈是我应该再等一会儿拍。
19 .Breda: I see. So the timing wasn’t right.
布雷达:我明白了。所以时间选择不对。
20 .Dan: Yes – I took it too soon, basically. And then the third competition I entered was called ‘Animal Magic’.
丹:是的,我拍得太早了,基本上是这个原因。然后我参加的第三次比赛叫做“动物的魔力”。
21 .Breda: Well, that’s a difficult subject!
布雷达:嗯,那是个难题!
22 .Dan: I know! I had to take hundreds of shots.
丹:我知道!我拍了几百张照片。
23 .Breda: I’m sure – because animals move all the time.
布雷达:我相信,因为动物一直在移动。
24 .Dan: That’s what we had to show – there had to be some movement in the scene. I got a great shot of a fox in the end, but I took it at night and, well, I suspected that it was a bit dark, which is what I was told.
丹:我们必须展示出这一点,场景中必须有一些动感。最后我拍到了一只狐狸的好照片,但是我是在晚上拍的,嗯,我怀疑它有点暗,这也是我得到的反馈。
25 .Breda: Well Dan – you seem to be really keen and we’d be delighted to have you in our club. I’m sure we can help with all those areas that you’ve outlined.
布雷达:好的丹,你似乎对此非常热衷,我们很高兴有你加入我们的俱乐部。我相信我们可以帮助你改进你提到的所有领域。
