实战口语情景对话 第59期:电视 TV

Todd: Marika let's talk about television. 茉莉，我们来聊聊电视。

Marika: OK. 好的。

Todd: Do you like to watch a lot of TV? 你喜欢经常看电视吗？

Marika: Yeah, I watch a lot of TV. 是的，我经常看电视。

Todd: Now you've been in Japan for awhile. Do yo watch TV in English or in Japanese? 你现在在日本已经有一段时间了。你是看英语电视节目还是看日语电视节目？

Marika: I watch TV in Japanese, but if it's on in English I will watch it in English. Yeah, I'm the same way. 我看日语节目，但如果有英语的我就看英语节目。是的，我也是。

Todd: Um, how good is your comprehension? How much can you understand? 你的日语对话能力怎么样？你能听懂多少？

Marika: If it's a drama I can understand most of what's happening, and definitely the story, but if a talk show and there's young people on and there're speaking fast, with a lot of slang, I don't really understand a lot of what they're saying, although I might know what topic they're discussing, I won't know what exactly their stand is. 如果是戏剧，我能看懂，明白故事情节，但如果是脱口秀节目，而且有年轻人在节目上说得很快，用很多俚语，我就不太懂他们在说些什么了。虽然我能大致明白他们所讨论的节目主题，但我不明白他们是什么立场。

Todd: Do you think that TV is bad for people? 你认为电视会对人有坏的影响吗？

Marika: Yeah, I think that TV is bad for people. It's really bad. 是的，我认为电视对人会产生不好的影响，很坏的影响。

Todd:Why? 为什么？

Marika: Because instead of reading a book or doing something outside, or doing something productive you just sit in front of a TV and absorb bad information or things that don't really help, help you learn anything probably, although Japanese television I think does have a lot of good documentaries and a lot of informative television programs. 因为人们不再读书，进行户外运动，或者做其他富有成效的事，而是坐在电视机前吸收一些没有帮助的信息，吸收那些你学不到任何东西的信息。但我认为日本电视节目中有许多好的纪录片和有意义的电视节目。
