（单词翻译）

 　　Simon: Hi! What's your name?

　　Nathan: My name is Nathan Curtis Gildard. Well, my name is Nathan but people call me Nate, so.
　　Simon: OK. What do you do in your free time?
　　Nathan: I do a lot of different things. I like to travel around, I like to go to places I've never been. I like to play guitar in a band, which I'm not in right now. I like to play soccer. I play soccer a lot, and I play futsal too.
　　Simon: Futsal, what's that?
　　Nathan: Futsal is a 5 a side soccer game, so it's played on a small court about the size of a basketball court, and the ball is smaller than a soccer ball, it's kind of heavy, and you have five people so there are 4 players and one keeper1, goalie.
　　Simon: Oh, interesting. Is it similar to soccer in other ways?
　　Nathan: Well, it's similar in ways that you pass the ball but it's different in ways that for example you have a stop clock in the international futsal games, and professional2 games, so there's a stop clock. The way you move around is very different, you know, you have positions like midfield, forward, defense3, but often a defender4 can find themselves playing forward which is kind of fun because defenders5 get a chance to score too.
　　Simon: OK, here is the last question, which do you prefer, soccer or the big football or futsal?
　　Nathan: Ah, that's a difficult question. I think at the moment I enjoy futsal a little bit more because it is a harder pace6. You're running a lot faster. There's more chances to score. It's a really challenging7 game. It takes a lot of energy, and the five guys that you play with, there's only five people so you really depend on each other to do well so it's a real team sport. You really need each other.
　　Simon: Thank you.
