现代的马戏团也在圆形场地中演出，因此演变成“马戏团”的意思。马戏的主要内容是动物表演，之所以被称为“马戏”，是因为早的表演的主角是马，以后才陆续出现其它的动物演员。

情景对话:
A: Hi, Kelly. What a happy coincidence to meet you here!
B: Oh, Tom. Nice to meet you, too. Did you also watch the circus performance just now?
A: Yeah. Did you enjoy the performance?
B: You bet. The acrobatics is marvelous. The acrobats'
stunts are really breathtaking. When the girl was doing the tightrope walking, I held my breath the whole time.
A: So did I. And the animal acts are also wonderful, like the"dog tricks" and "elephants dancing". In my opinion, the"lion training" is the highlight of the whole performance.
When the animal trainer put his head into the mouth of the lion, the audience gasped.
B: Yeah. At that moment, I was so frightened that I closed my eyes.
A: Besides, I like those clowns very much. They made faces,ran on stilts around the ground and made us laugh with their funny behaviors.
B: Yeah, very interesting. I want to watch it again.
A: Me, too! Let's come here again tomorrow.
参考译文
A:嗨.凯莉，在这儿遇见你真是太巧了!
B:噢，汤姆。我也很高兴见到你。你刚才也看马戏表演了吗?
A:是啊。你喜欢刚才的演出吗?
B:当然啦。杂技太棒了，特技表演太惊险了。当那个小女孩走钢丝的时候，我几乎一直都屏住呼吸。
A:我也是.“狗耍把戏”“大象跳舞”等动物演出也很好看。在我看来，“驯狮表演’是整场演出的亮点。当驯兽师把头伸进狮子的嘴里的时候，观众们都倒吸一口凉气。
B:是啊.那时，我也非常害怕，甚至闭上了眼睛不敢看。
A:另外，我非常喜欢那些小丑的表演.他们扮鬼脸、绕场踩高跷。不停地用滑稽的动作来逗笑观众。
B:是呀，非常有意思。我还想再看一遍。
A:我也是。我们明天再来看吧。
