variety show: 杂耍

在国际足坛，贝利和马拉多纳谁是第一球王一直充满了争议，而且他们关系不佳，两人甚至不愿意出席同一个颁奖仪式。不过最近阿根廷13电视频道为马拉多纳量身定做的《10号之夜》的正式开播为这段恩怨画上了一个句号。贝利作为嘉宾出席了马拉多纳主持的这套电视节目。请看外电报道：

In his debut¹ as a TV talk show host, Diego Maradona headed a ball with fellow former soccer star Pele and hobnobbed with movie stars and entertainers.

Pele strummed a song on a guitar and Maradona sang the lyrics² to a tango amid flashing strobe lights and the applause of a raucous³ studio audience in Maradona's debut Monday night as a weekly television variety show host on a local network.

文中variety show是"杂耍"的意思。此处的"show"means a theatrical⁴ performance or a television or a radio programme which is entertaining rather than serious（演出；节目）。如上面第一句中的talk show意思是"(电视、无线电)访问节目, 座谈节目"，又如：chat show（电视台）现场访问节目；dumb show哑剧；手势；quiz show智力竞赛节目等等。
