Let’s Talk!
开始交流吧!
Walte: Where do you think we should go on holiday this summer?
沃尔特:你觉得今年夏天我们去哪儿度假?
Helen: I’d like to go to Australia。
海伦:我想去澳大利亚。
Walte: Don’t be so silly。 That’s too far away!
沃尔特:别犯傻了。那儿太远了。
Helen: I know it’s far to go, but I think it would be something different and special。
海伦:我知道挺远的。但是去澳洲度假会更特别。
Walte: I’d really like to go to the Garibbean。 We can relax on the beached and enjoy the sunshine。
沃尔特:我挺想去加勒比海的。我们可以在海滩上舒服地晒太阳。
Helen: There are beaches in Australia too, but I would prefer a more active holiday this year。 We could visit Ayers Rock and the Great Barrier Reef。 It would be so exciting。
海伦:澳洲也有海滩。我希望过一个活力四射的假期,我们可以去看艾尔斯巨石和大堡礁,一定很刺激。
Walte: But would it be relaxing? I’ll be quite tired from doing so much work。 The last thing I need is to use more energy racing around Australia。 I’d need another holiday to recover from the holiday!
沃尔特:这是放松吗?干这么多事情肯定很累。我最不愿意的就是花更多的精力绕着澳洲跑,之后还得花一段时间来恢复体力。
Helen: Oh, come on! A tour of Australia would be relaxing because you’d be doing something different and not working。
海伦:噢。别这样。去澳洲也是放松。因为你不用工作,可以干别的。
Walte: Do you think so? I’m not sure。 Anyway, tell me your plans for an Australian holiday。 How long do you think we should spend there?
沃尔特:是吗?我不太清楚。无论如何。告诉我你的澳洲计划吧。你觉得我们得在那儿待多久?
Helen: I think we should go for two weeks。 We could spend a week in Sydney and a week at the Great Barrier Reef, including a few days on the beach。
海伦:我想我们应该去两个礼拜。在悉尼玩一个礼拜,去大堡礁玩一个礼拜,这样可以在沙滩上放松几天。
Walte: That doesn’t sound too bad。 I’d certainly like to go diving。 That’s one reason I wanted to go to the Caribbean。
沃尔特:听起来不错。我想要潜水,这也是我要去加勒比海的一个原因。
Helen: We could hire a car and travel around for several days。 If we hire a car, we can go where we like。
海伦:我们可以租辆车四处旅游几天。有车的话,就可以想去哪儿就去哪儿了。
Walte: We’d have to plan our drive before we leave。 Let’s get a good guidebook from the bookstore when we go shopping tomorrow。
沃尔特:我们得在出发前计划一下行车路线。我们明天出去买东西的时候在书店买本导游手册吧。
Movie
电影大片
电影,也称映画。是由活动照相术和幻灯放映术结合发展起来的一种现代艺术。电影在艺术表现力上不但具有其他各种艺术的特征,又因可以运用蒙太奇这种艺术性极强的电影组接技巧,具有超越其他一切艺术的表现手段,而且影片可以大量复制放映。现在越来越多的投资大、制作成本高的电影片,多为题材重大、影响面广并有著名影星主演的电影片。

A movie, also called a movie or motion picture, is a series of still or moving images。 It is produced by recording photographic images with cameras, or by creating images using animation techniques or visual effects。 The process of moviemaking has developed into an art form and industry。
Movies are cultural artifacts created by specific cultures, which reflect those cultures, and, in turn, affect them。 Movie is considered to be an important art form, a source of popular entertainment and a powerful method for educating—or indoctrinating—citizens。 The visual elements of cinema give motion pictures a universal power of communication。 Some movies have become popular worldwide attractions by using dubbing or subtitles that translate the dialogue into the language of the viewer。
Movies are made up of a series of individual images called frames。 When these images are shown rapidly in succession, a viewer has the illusion that motion is occurring。 The viewer cannot see the flickering between frames due to an effect known as persistence of vision, whereby the eye retains a visual image for a fraction of a second after the source has been removed。 Viewers perceive motion due to a psychological effect called beta movement。
The origin of the name “movie” comes from the fact that photographic movie (also called movie stock) has historically been the primary medium for recording and displaying motion pictures。 Many other terms exist for an individual motion picture, including picture, picture show, moving picture, photo-play and flick。 A common name for movie in the United States is movie, while in Europe the term movie is preferred。 Additional terms for the field in general include the big screen, the silver screen, the cinema and the movies。
