It is not about violence, but about how television gives children a false sense of reality.Applebaum博士最近完成了一项关于电视节目对儿童影响的调查报告。(这种影响)不是暴力,而是电视节目给孩子们造成对现实的错觉。notbut 不是而是Dr
4、. Applebaum told me, The greatest danger of television is that it presents a world to children that doesnt exist, and leads them to expect things that never happen.Applebaum博士告诉我:电视对孩子的最大危害是它呈现了一个非真实的世界,使得他们期盼着永远也不会发生的事。I dont understand, Doctor, I said.Well, let me give you one example. Have you ev
5、er seen a television show where a person in a car doesnt immediately find a parking place on the very first try?where a person in a car doesnt是定语从句,修饰a television showparking place 停车位on the very first try:头一次(试做某事)very 常用来强调某些形容词的最高级形式以及像first,last,same等词。Come to think of it, I said, I havent.Come
6、to think of it:相当于汉语的真的,想想还真是如此。Not only is there always a parking place, but the driver doesnt even have to back into it. There are two parking spaces for him when he needs one. Children are being led to believe that when they grow up they will always be able to find a parking place available when
7、and where they want it. You can imagine how bad they will feel when they discover that in real life they can drive around a block for three hours and still cant find a place to park their car.“那里不但总有一个空车位,而且开车的人还不必费事把车倒进去。当他需要一个车位时,总有两个车位空在那里。这样,孩子们就被引导着相信当他们长大后,无论何时何地想停车,他们都能找到车位。你可以想象到当他们在现实生活中绕着一
8、个街区开了三个小时的车还找不到一个车位时,会是多么糟糕。”Not onlybut (also)I never thought of it, but its true. What else do they show on television which gives a distorted picture of the real world?“我从来没有想到过,但的确是真的。还有哪些电视节目扭曲地反映了现实生活?”Have you noticed that whenever a person walks out of a restaurant or office building and say
9、s to the doorman, Get me a taxi, the taxi immediately arrives? I have never seen a TV show where the doorman has said, I m sorry. I cant get you a taxi. Youd better take the bus. “您注意到没有,不管一个人何时从餐厅或办公楼出来对门卫说:给我叫辆出租车,出租车就会招之即来?我从没在电视上听到过门卫说:很抱歉,先生。我叫不到车。你还是坐公共汽车吧。”Of course, I said, I never noticed t
10、hat. There is always a yellow taxi waiting somewhere off the TV screen.的确是,我说,我从来没有注意到这一点。“荧屏外总有一辆黄色的出租车待命。”Now, said Applebaum, have you ever said to a taxi driver, Follow that car and dont lose him?那么,Applebaum博士说,你有没有对出租车司机说过跟上那辆车,别让那人溜了?Not really.Well, if you had, the driver would have told you
11、 not to talk nonsense. No taxi driver wants to follow another car because that means hes going to get into trouble. But on TV every taxi driver looks as if he had nothing better to do than to drive 90 miles an hour through rain-swept street trying to keep up with a carful of gangsters. And the worst
12、 thing is that the kids believe it.“如果你真要这么对司机说,他一定会叫你别胡扯。没有哪个出租车司机愿意跟踪别的车,因为这会惹麻烦。但在电视节目里,出租车司机好像没有别的事可干,个个都情愿以每小时90英里的速度在大雨滂沱的马路上奔驰,尾随满载歹徒的车辆。最糟糕的是孩子们都相信这是真的。”have nothing better to do than to do 除了做以外没有别的事可干Henry seems to have nothing better to do than to tell jokes.除了说笑话,亨利好像就没别的事可干了。I think som
13、e old people have nothing better to do than to complain about their unhappiness.我觉得有些老人除了抱怨自己不愉快的事情之外就不知道做别的。What else have you discovered?Kids have a false sense of what emergency wards of hospitals are really like. On TV shows they take a kid to an emergency ward and four doctors come rushing down
14、 to bandage his leg. In a real life situation the kid would be sitting on the bench for two hours before he even saw a nurse. On TV there always happens to be a hospital bed available when a kid needs it. What the kids in this country dont know is that sometimes you have to wait three days to get a
15、hospital bed and then you have to pay 500 dollars down before they give it to you. “孩子们对医院里急救室的真实情况也产生错觉。电视里,当人们带着孩子去急救室时,会有四名医生急冲冲地过来给孩子包扎腿部。在现实生活中这孩子会坐在长凳子上等两个小时才能见到一位护士。电视里,当一个孩子需要床位时,总是恰好有一个床位留着给他用。这些孩子不知道:在美国,有的时候你不得不等上三天才能等到一个床位,而且得先交500美元的首付款才能得到它。”pay down 首付If you move into the house now, y
16、ou have to pay 5,000 yuan down.如果你现在搬进这座房子,你得先交5,000元。This is only the down payment and you are to pay the rest by the end of the year.这只是首期付款,余下的要在年底付清。Applebaum said the cruelest lie of all is when TV shows a lawyer defending someone innocent of a crime. Applebaum说,最残酷的谎言就是电视节目表现一位律师为一无辜的被告辩护。 On
17、the screen the lawyer spends day and night looking for evidence to prove the person is innocent. In real life the lawyer says to the defendant, Look, Ive got 20 minutes. Tell me your story and then Ill plead you guilty and make a deal with the D.A. The defendant might say, But Im innocent. The lawye
18、r would say, So what? I cant afford to find that out. Im not Perry Mason.“荧屏上律师夜以继日地查找证据以证明被告无罪。而在现实生活中,律师往往会对被告说:我现在有20分钟的时间。赶紧把你的情况告诉我,我按你有罪为你辩护,然后与地方检察官做笔交易了事。被告会说:但是我是清白的啊。律师就会说:那又怎么样?我可赔不起时间去给你查清楚。我可不是佩里梅森。”Then what youre saying, Dr. Applebaum, is that it isnt the violence on TV but the unreal
19、ity that is doing harm to children. “那么,Applebaum博士,你的意思不是说电视中的暴力画面给孩子造成了危害,而是电视里的非真实性对孩子造成了危害?”Exactly. Even the advertisements are harmful. “确实是这样。即使是广告也非常有害。Children are led to believe that when they grow up if they use a certain mouthwash theyll find the mate of their dreams. When they dont find
20、 him or her after washing their mouth all night, they fall into a difficult situation and many of them never come out of it.they fall into a difficult situation and many of them never come out of it:他们就会陷入苦闷之中,其中不少人永远也不能摆脱出来。三、语法与练习常用短语:notbut 不是而是(连接的句子成分形式必须一致) It is not that he wants to tell lies
21、 but that he dare not speak the truth. 不是他愿意说谎,而是他不敢说实话。(连接两个从句) We study English not to please our parents but to become a more useful person.我们学英语不是为了取悦父母,而是为了更有作为。(连接两个不定式)not only but (also) 不但而且 cite an example 引用一个例子,举例 on the first try 第一次尝试 think of 考虑,想想;想到,想起 grow up 长大,成长 get into trouble

34、wing Passage into English.将下面短文译成英语。阿普尔鲍姆博士认为电视对孩子们最大的危险是其不真实性。电视向他们展现的是与现实不符的虚假情况。比如,在荧屏上出租车司机都很礼貌,你想上哪里就送你去哪里。而现实生活中,这样的司机是很难找到的。此外,现实生活中,在医院里你根本得不到荧屏上所显示的那样好的服务。还有,荧屏上的律师与现实生活中的律师也大相径庭。现实生活中没有哪个律师会夜以继日地寻找证据来证明他们的当事人(client)无罪,除非当事人能出大价钱。最后阿普尔鲍姆博士得出结论说,要是孩子们在这种虚幻的情况(unreality)下长大成人,他们以后就不能应付困难的处境。
