美国大选将近，大家都在讨论要投谁的票。刚刚成为美国公民的Amir就在跟他的妻子Sharon谈论要投票给谁，一起来听听吧! Professor: Amir just became an American citizen, and this year he is voting in his first American election. Today he is having breakfast with his wife, Sharon, and they're talking about the upcoming election. Amir: So honey, who do you think you're going to vote for in the election? I really like both the Republican and Democratic candidates, but I can't decide who to vote for. Sharon: You like both of them? I think they're both terrible. For me the question isn't who I like the most, but who I dislike the least! Amir: Well, I guess that's an interesting way to look at it. To be honest I don't care if Virginia is a blue state or a red state. I just want a moderate candidate who will do a good job. Sharon: Yeah, you're right. The only thing I care about is that whoever wins isn't too partisan. 看来Amir和Sharon都是moderate voters--温和的选民。不过我不明白，Amir说，他不在乎Virginia州变成blue state or red state，这是什么意思呢? Professor: In America, the color red represents the Republican Party, and the color blue represents the Democratic Party. |
