实战口语情景对话 第1312期:Do you think computers can replace teachers? 你认为电脑能代替老师吗?

Goron: Hi, I'm Goron from Italy.
高伦：嗨，我是戈登，来自意大利。

Michael: I'm Michael from Norway.
迈克尔：我是迈克尔，来自挪威。

Goron: So, the question is do you think computers can replace teachers?
高伦：我们要讨论的问题是，你认为电脑能代替老师吗？

Michael: That's a good question. No, and why I think that is because, you know, there's only that much you can make interactive without any discipline and I think teacher is the part there that really motivates the students to go further. A computer will never really motivates you, it will only tell you if you're doing good or bad while a teacher can really, you know, tell you about his or her experience, tell you what to do to become better and they will really give you a hint on how to improve yourself in a more humane way.
迈克尔：这是个好问题。我认为不能，因为电脑只是能在没有任何约束的情况下进行互动，可是我认为教师才能真正激励学生不断进步。电脑永远不能真正地激励你，它只会告诉你你做得好还是不好，而老师会向你传授他或她的经验，告诉你如何能变得更优秀，老师会给你提示，告诉你如何以更人性化的方式提高自己。

Goron: I agree with you, definitely.
高伦：我完全同意你的观点。
