Y 大家好，我是杨晨。

P 我是Patrick。

Y & P 今天我们...

Y Patrick，你不要跟我抢着说话，这是犯规。要是赛跑你这就是抢跑，false start!

P I apologize.

In track and field, if an athlete committed two false starts, he/she will be disqualified.

Y 哇，好严格。两次 false starts，就要被罚下场。所以短跑要先练习起跑。在起跑线，我们会听到发令员喊:

“各就位”

P On your marks,

Y 预备

P Get set,

Y 没有发令枪发令员就喊“跑”

P ：Go!

Y: 正式比赛当然都用发令枪了。

P ：A starting gun is used in official track meets.

Y :起跑对短跑运动员很重要，尤其是百米赛这样的短跑项目。

P：A runner's start is crucial, especially for sprinting events like the 100-m-dash. You need to react to the gun fast， but not too fast; otherwise you will commit a false start.

Y 枪响了要迅速冲出去，但起跑太快，据说快于0.1秒就是抢跑了。 信不信我跑得比你快。

P 不相信。

Y 那我们出去比一比！Lets race.

P OK. Lets race and see what happens. Announcer: On your marks, get set, go......

Y： I win, I win!!!

P: No, you didn't, you cheated! False start.
