South Korean students hoping to get in shape and improve their discipline braved the sweltering summer heat on Wednesday… attending a boot camp run by a special commando group.
希望能有健康和改善纪律的韩国学生，周三冒着酷暑….参加由特种部队所办的新兵训练营。

Instead of relaxing during the annual summer break, more than 200 students joined the marine-style boot camp in Buchon, west of Seoul.
不再是每年暑假放松休闲，200多名学生参加了西部首尔－富川的陆战队风格式新兵训练营。

The camp aims to test their physical and mental endurance through eight hours of daily activities such as dragging parachutes, running with rubber boats on their shoulders, and jumping from a 40 foot tower.
训练营的目标，是藉由每天8小时的活动，考验他们的身体与心理的承受力，例如拖行降落伞、扛着橡皮艇在肩膀上跑步、还有从40英尺高的塔台跳下。

[Oh Young-Jae, 17-Year-Old Student]:
“Defensive falls were a very hard part of the training and trench battles were interesting. After this four-day training, I will be ready to march toward my aim with better preparedness."
[Oh Young-Jae，17岁学生]：
“防守性跳落是训练中很困难的一部分，壕沟战斗则很有趣的。经过4天的训练后，我更准备好向前迈向我的目标。”

In the afternoon the temperature began to heat up.
下午气温开始升高。

[Lee Seung-eun, 17-Year-Old Student]:
“It’s tough and sometimes I lose my temper, but I feel I get something out of it. It’s difficult to train, but I know I can get over my limitations with very good physical exercise."
[Lee Seung-eun，17岁学生]：
“这很难，有时我会发脾气，但我觉得有从中得到东西。训练很难，但我知道有了很好的体格锻炼，我可以克服自己的局限。”

The army has been running these boot camps since 2003, with approximately 17,000 participants.

[Lt. Col. Cho Jae-man, South Korean Army]:

“透过这个由特种部队办的训练营，我们军方，我们喜欢表现强大但亲切，并且希望我们的参加者，有一个宝贵的机会，可以得到信心、自制力、精神和爱国心。”
