Jeff: So you do winter camping and the place you live, do you get a lot of snow there?
杰夫：你进行过冬季露营，你生活的那个地方会下很多雪吗？
Tim: We get quite a bit of snow but it's mostly just up in the mountains.
蒂姆：我们那里雪很多，不过主要是在山上。
Jeff: So, lately there's been a lot of talk about global warming. So where you live, do you find that you can see the affects global warming, say with less snow?
杰夫：最近大家都在谈全球变暖。你有发现你们那里受到了全球变暖的影响吗？比如降雪减少等问题？
Tim: I think you can. I think there's been less snow. That is not quite a noticeable as the glaciers that are on the mountains have gotten smaller and smaller, so I think there has been less snow although it's not real noticeable cause ski resorts are still open and there's still snow out there but to snow shoe but every summer the glaciers seem to be getting smaller and smaller.
蒂姆：我觉得可以这么说。降雪量的确减少了。虽然不是很明显，不过山上的冰川面积越来越小，所以我认为降雪量的确减少了，不过不太明显，因为滑雪度假村仍在开放，而且山上仍然有积雪，仍可以进行雪地行走，不过看起来每年夏天冰川的面积都在逐渐减小。
Jeff: So you are about — what — 35 now?
杰夫：你现在有35岁吗？
Tim: Ah, younger than that actually.
蒂姆：我还不到35岁。
Jeff: Really. So in your thirties, but when you were a boy, when you were young like 5 or 6 and you were playing in the snow, was there more snow back then?
杰夫：是吗？你现在是30来岁，在你小时候，大概五六岁在雪地里玩的时候，是不是降雪比较多？
Tim: I think there probably was. One thing is — I told you the snow is in the mountain — and there used to be a lot more snow in the valley where I live and I can't remember the last time we got snow in the valley.
蒂姆：我想可能是这样的。我刚说过山区降雪很多，以前我生活的那个山谷也有很多降雪，可是我已经想不起来上次山谷下雪是什么时候的事了。
Jeff: Really! So global warming, you think may be is getting worse?
杰夫：真的吗？那你认为全球变暖现象会越来越严重吗？
Tim: I would say so. I think one of the biggest affects is we seem to be getting more rain actually. The weather patterns have switched a little bit and it seems like it's been dumping rain. There's been more flooding, so we're actually getting more rain and less snow.
蒂姆：我想是这样的。我觉得全球变暖最大的影响之一就是导致降雨量增加。天气模式有了些改变，看起来降雨量一直在增加。这样会引发更多的洪水，我们现在是降雨多降雪少。
Jeff: Oh, really. OK. Interesting.
杰夫：哦，是吗？好，挺有意思的。
