接下来，我们看看珍妮怎么跟凯文介绍传统的台湾童玩。
Kevin: Hey Jenny, have you ever played with traditional Taiwanese children’s toys before?
凯文：嘿，珍妮，你以前有没有玩过传统的台湾童玩？
Jenny: Yeah, I used to play with a lot of them when I was younger. I remember playing with spinning tops, Chinese shuttlecocks, and poking lottery.
珍妮：有啊，我小时候常常玩。我记得玩过打陀螺、踢毽子和抽抽乐。
Kevin: A spinning top? What is it?
凯文：陀螺？那是什么？
Jenny: It’s a wooden or plastic toy that you spin on the ground using a string. You have to wind up the string around the top and then pull it quickly to make the top spin. It’s a lot of fun to see how long you can keep it spinning for.
珍妮：它是木制或塑胶制的玩具，用绳子让它在地上旋转。你要把绳子绕在陀螺上，然后迅速拉起来让陀螺旋转，看看你能让它转多久，很有趣的。
Kevin: That sounds really cool. What about Chinese shuttlecocks? I’ve heard of those before but I’m not sure what they are.
凯文：听起来很酷，那毽子呢？我有听过，但不确定那是什么。
Jenny: A Chinese shuttlecock is like a combination between badminton and soccer. It’s made of feathers and a rubber base, and you kick it back and forth with your feet. It takes a lot of skill to keep it in the air and do tricks with them.
珍妮：毽子像是结合了羽毛球和足球。它是用羽毛和橡胶底部做成的，用脚来来回回去踢它，需要很多技巧才能让它停在空中并做出许多花样。
Kevin: Wow. That sounds challenging. And what’s poking lottery?
凯文：哇，听起来很有挑战性呢！那么戳戳乐呢？
Jenny: Poking lottery is a game where you use a long bamboo stick to poke through a small hole that is numbered on a box. Each number represents a small prize, like candy or a toy. It’s also a lot of fun to see which prize you can get.
珍妮：戳戳乐是用一根长竹签去戳破盒子上有编号的小洞，每个数字代表一个小奖品，像是糖果或玩具，看看你能拿到什么奖品也是很好玩的。
Kevin: I’ve never heard of that one before. I’ll got to try it sometime.
凯文：我从没听过耶，我一定要去试试看。
Jenny: Definitely! There are so many different traditional Taiwanese children’s toys out there, and they’re all really unique and fun to play with.
珍妮：一定要的！有很多不同种类的传统台湾童玩，都很特别也很好玩。
