※ [本文转录自 NBA 看板] 作者: BullShits (拨穴大师) 看板: NBA 标题: [外电] danger的故事 时间: Tue Oct 28 23:13:47 2008 这篇的主角是 妙丽.葛兰杰!!!!! 呵呵 不是啦 是 绰号 "DANGER" 的 溜马新看板人物 "DENNY GRANGER" If it hadn’t been for an unusual growth spurt, Danny Granger could have been one of the civil engineers designing sports arenas like Conseco Fieldhouse instead of one of the basketball players performing in them. Funny how things turn out. 如果不是不平凡的身体成长.GRANGER或许会变成一位土木工程师.设计出像是溜马主场 Conseco Fieldhouse的建筑.而不是成为在球场里打球的球员. For as long as he can remember, Granger had designs on becoming an engineer -- a civil engineer, to be exact. He recalls heading straight to the computer with his sister immediately after they returned home from school. The pair decided they would both become engineers (his sister studied to become a computer engineer). His natural knack for math and science also played into his decision. 就GRANGER所记得的.他计画成为一位专业的土木工程师.他回想起以前放学後 总是立刻回家跟着他姊姊埋头用电脑.他们俩都决定要当工程师(他姐姐想当电脑工程师). 其中GRANGER精通数学及科学也是他考量的一部分. “I always wanted to be a civil engineer,” said Granger, who began studying the field at Bradley University and continued after transferring to New Mexico. “That was my goal. I’m still passionate about it.” GRNAGER说:我就是想当个土木工程师.从在Bradley念大学开始.一直到转到New Mexico. "这就是我的目标.直到现在我还是非常的热衷" However, a growth spurt back in ninth grade sent him soaring from 6-2 to 6-7 within months. It seemed a good indicator of the path the now 6-9 forward would be taking. 然而.在他九年级後.几个月内突然从6尺2长到6尺7.这正说明了为什麽眼前是一个6尺9的 前锋在说话. Height wasn’t the only thing that played into his talent on the court. He credits his father, whom he describes as a very good basketball player, for introducing him to the game when he was young. “He raised me up playing the game,” said Granger, who had also tried football. 身高并不是他现在这麽强唯一的理由.他感谢他的爸爸.GRANGER描述他爸爸是个不错的 篮球员.从小就指导他打篮球.GRANGER说"他鼓舞了我玩这场游戏".GRANGER同时也是对 美式足球有兴趣的. His physique clinched his decision to pursue basketball as a sport. “I was pretty fast, but my body is better built for basketball,” he said. 他的体格是他决定打篮球重要的因素.他说"我很快.所以我的身材更显得我适合打篮球" While he excelled at the game, Granger still had his Plan B. Or, in his case, Plan A. He advises youths wanting to make it as a professional player to work hard at their goal no matter the outcome. 正当GRANGER在球场发光发热时.他仍然有着自己另一个目标.甚至对他来说. 这是主要的目标.GRANGER建议想当打球的小毛头.仍然要为了自己目标努力. 不要在乎结果. “Realistically, making it to the NBA is a very difficult goal,” Granger said. “If you look at the numbers, percentage-wise, you see how many people actually make it. It takes a lot of hard work and determination. And even if you don’t accomplish that goal, you can still be successful while striving for that goal. I wanted to be a civil engineer and I was using basketball as my ticket to get a degree.” "真的.靠着这专业进NBA是很难达成的目标"GRANGER说."但是你看看在这里面的人. 你可以看到很多人真的办到了.需要很多的努力以及决定.也许你不能实现你的目标 但是在这追寻的过程你仍然是成功者.就像我想当个土木工程师.我没达到.但我仍然 靠着篮球让我拿到学位." These days, Granger feeds his passion for engineering by putting things together at his home. 这些日子.GRANGER靠着在家里装修来满足当个土木工程师的欲望. “I’m still into electronic things,” said Granger, who installed a complex music system in his house and did the wiring for his flat-screen TVs. “I like just fooling with stuff in the house. I probably could hire somebody do it for me, but I end up doing it myself. 他说.我会试着弄电子产品.他刚安装了个复杂的音响系统.而且还拉线把平版电视 搞再一起."我无聊就会在家闲晃着.我是可以请个人来帮我弄.可是我还是选择自己尝试" However, he completed the tasks and enjoys the fruits of his labor by indulging in one of his other passions whenever he has the time. 然而.他还是做好了这些工作并且享受着流汗的快感.因为这些时光是做他有兴趣的工作 In his spare time, he enjoys playing video games on his Xbox 360 such as John Madden and NBA Live, where he is able to play as himself because he is featured in the game. You might also find him at home indulging in his favorite food, banana pudding. He has an incredible recipe handed down by his uncle, who is a cook.”It is the most amazing banana pudding you will have ever tasted,” he said. “It is unbelievable.” 在GRANGER的休闲时间.他喜欢打电动(XBOX360).像是JOHN MADDEN或是NBA Live等游戏 因为他可以用他自己.因为他在电动里很强哩.你也可以发现他再家沉溺於美味的食物中 -香蕉布丁.他叔叔是个厨师.传授给他一个很不可置信的烹饪秘诀."你不会相信的" "这一定是你吃过最好吃的香蕉布丁"GRANGER说. Granger also enjoys watching movies. GRANGER也喜欢看电影 A self-professed movie buff, Granger figures he owns at least 2,000 movies. In his most recent attempt to count them, he was able to number about 1,500 right off the bat without counting the ones in other rooms. 在他自己的电影收藏里.他说他最少有两千部电影.而且在他最近一次去算. 他没有去算别的房间.就计算了1500部了. His favorite movie of all time: "Gladiator," which stars Russell Crowe. 他最喜欢的电影是 神鬼战士 罗素克洛演的. “No matter how many times I see that movie, I’m still drawn to it,” Granger said. “That’s the real test of a great movie.” A worthy runner-up is "Armageddon," starring Bruce Willis. His favorite genre tends to be action, drama and films with a message. "不管是第几次看这部电影.我总是可以接下去叙述他"GRANGER说. "对我来说.这是对部好电影的好考验" 他第二喜欢的是 世界末日 布鲁斯威利演的 他喜欢的电影类型是动作片科幻片. Granger’s love of movies dates back to his college days. He and his girlfriend would head out to the theater early in the day on Saturdays and watch three movies in a row. They often wouldn’t get back to their dorm rooms until about 10 p.m. “We didn’t want to pay every time,” he said with a laugh. “Money was tight.” GRANGER喜欢电影是从大学开始.他和他女友会在礼拜六提早去电影院.然後看三部电影 他们通常不会在晚上10点前回到家."而且我们每次都不会付钱"他笑着说"因为手头很紧呗" When asked if he would ever consider taking on a role in Hollywood, Granger has some serious doubts. “I’m not afraid of public speaking, but acting?" he said. "Not my cup of tea.” 当有人问GRANGER说 你会考虑去好莱发展吗? GRANGER很认真的怀疑说 "我是不怕在大众面前演讲啦.但是你要我去演戏?" "我是没啥兴趣啦" Even so, he leaves room for the possibility. “Who knows?” he said. 即使如此.他还是留下着可能讯息 "不过谁知道呢?" Indeed, who knows what the future holds for a young man who set out to become a civil engineer and made it the NBA? 不过确实的.谁会知道一个未来想当土木工程师的小夥子现在会在NBA呢? 第一次翻外电.翻的烂的话请多包涵喔 -- ▁▁ ▕拨大▏ ▕穴师▏ ￣￣ --
