 　　Reality TV

　　实境电视
　　After several auditions1 and screenings, Shane and Eliza were going to be on a reality TV show. The show was called Double Dare. They were going to have to test their courage by performing daredevil stunts2.
　　经过几次试音和试镜后，夏恩和伊莉莎即将参加一个名为“勇气十足”的实境电视节目。他们会进行一些不怕死的惊险动作，来考验他们的勇气。
　　The day of the show, they were both antsy. What were they going to have to do? They soon found out! The host of the show told them they had to run through a swamp that was filled with electric eels4. Eliza couldn’t believe it. It was crazy.
　　节目开拍那天，他们两个都显得坐立不安。他们到底要做什么呢？答案很快揭晓！节目主持人叫他们跑过一座满是电鳗的沼泽。伊莉莎简直不敢相信，这根本是疯了。
　　What if they were electrocuted? They rolled up their pants and when the host said, “Go!” they ran as fast as they could. About midway across, Shane stepped on an eel3. The eels hissed5 and bit his ankle. Shane fell into the water. Eliza stopped running, “Come on, Shane,” she shouted. She went over to him and helped him out. He was limping now.
　　万一他们被电死该怎么办？他们卷起裤管后，等主持人一说“开始！”，便全力冲刺。夏恩跑到一半左右踩到了一只电鳗，结果那只电鳗发出嘶嘶声，然后咬了他的脚踝。夏恩掉到水里，伊莉莎跑到一半也停了下来，大叫道：“快点，夏恩。”她跑过去帮他，他现在得跛着脚前进了。
　　They made it across the swamp in less than 10 minutes, which was the fastest time of all the contestants6. They won ten thousand dollars, but Shane had to be rushed to the hospital to have his ankle looked at.
　　最后他们不到十分钟便通过沼泽，是所有参赛者中最快的。虽然他们赢得了一万块奖金，但夏恩得赶紧到医院给医生看看脚踝才行。
