美语情景对话 第610期:TV Shows 电视节目

Wendi: OK, so the next thing was when I was young, I used to watch this TV program. It was called the "Wonder Years". And I had such a crush on that kid Fred.

温迪：我小的时候看过《纯真年代》这部电视剧。当时我非常喜欢演孩子的弗莱德。

Ken: Fred Savage was it?

肯：是弗莱德·萨维奇吗？

Wendi: Yeah, yeah, Fred Savage. What was his name in that show?

温迪：对，弗莱德·萨维奇。他在戏里面叫什么？

Ken: I actually never really watched that show. No, I've seen a couple of reruns.

肯：其实我没怎么看过那部剧。不对，我看过几次重播。

Wendi: I know he had a crush on some girl names Wendi but I can't recall what his name was, but I has such a huge mad crush on him.

温迪：我记得他很喜欢名字是温迪的女孩，不过我想不起来他在戏里的名字了，我当时真的非常喜欢他。

Ken: It's that show with the little kid, but like someone else, like the adult's like recounting his childhood.

肯：那是一部讲述一个孩子成长的故事，里面是主角成年以后对自己童年时期进行的回忆。

Wendi: Yeah, I think so.

温迪：对，是这样的。

Ken: Like there's a narrator in the back.

肯：电视剧中有旁白。

Wendi: I think so. Yeah. I think so. But then, that whole thing just broke down when I saw Austin Powers, and "Mole, Mole, Mole, Mole".

温迪：是的，对。我记得也是。可是在我看了他出演的《王牌大贱谍》之后一切都结束了。

Ken: Was that him?

肯：那是他吗？

Wendi: Yeah.

温迪：对。

Ken: That was him?

肯：真的是他？

Wendi: It's the same guy and he's an adult and he's not attractive or cute whatsoever and so I just feel really betrayed. OK, so I told you about an actor I had a crush on when I was young. So what show did you grow up on that you totally had a crush on — one of the actresses?

温迪：对，是他，成年后的他不再那么吸引人，也不再可爱，我有种被背叛的感觉。我刚告诉了你我小时候喜欢的演员。你小时候有没有非常喜欢的节目和女演员？

Ken: Unfortunately. Unfortunately, I was banned from watching TV as a child.

肯：不幸的是，我小时候家里不让我看电视。

Wendi: Are you serious?

温迪：真的吗？

Ken: Yeah, so.

肯：对。

Wendi: Were you really?

温迪：真的？

Ken: I did not grow up watching TV. Yeah. I was not raised on TV.

肯：小时候不能看电视。我不是看着电视长大的。

Wendi: You weren't raised on TV at all?

温迪：你小时候完全不能看电视吗？

Ken: Not at all.

肯：对，完全不能看。

Wendi: So, were taking Monday to Friday, no TV?

温迪：周一至周五不能看电视？

Ken: I'm talking I had to, like while my mom was cooking dinner, I could like turn the volume really low on a nine inch black and white TV and maybe catch five minutes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or something.

肯：我妈妈做晚饭的时候，我可以把那台九英寸黑白电视的音量调低，大概能看五分钟的《忍者神龟》或其他节目。

Wendi: Are you serious?

温迪：你说真的吗？

Ken: That's how bad it was.

肯：真实情况就是这么糟。

Wendi: That's shocking.

温迪：这太令人震惊了。

Ken: That is, yeah.

肯：是这样的。

Wendi: Yeah, so then at like what age did you, because you know how to work a computer quite well, when did you learn all this stuff?

温迪：你什么时候开始……你擅长电脑操作，你是什么时候开始学习这些的？

Ken: I guess once my brother and sister started growing up, then my mom, you know, let me have a little bit more freedom.

肯：我的兄弟姐妹渐渐长大以后，我妈妈就给了我一定的自由。

Wendi: Yeah. Yeah.

温迪：嗯。

Ken: We got our first computer. I was more into computer than TV, initially.

肯：我们买了第一台电脑。最初，比起电视，我对电脑更感兴趣。

Wendi: Yeah.

温迪：好。

Ken: And the first TV show I watched regularly must have been like the Simpsons, probably.

肯：我看的第一个电视节目可能是《辛普森一家》。

Wendi: How old were you?

温迪：当时你几岁？

Ken: I can't remember. Probably, seventh, eight grade.

肯：我记不清了。可能七年级或八年级。

Wendi: Oh, yeah.
