今天的這段對話,在討論服裝走秀,
 
哈佛舉行的萬圣節(jié)服裝走秀都有什么獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)?"原始尖叫"是什么
 
來聽今天的講解:

 
A: Are you free this afternoon?
 
今天下午有空嗎?
 
B: Yes. Why?
 
有啊,怎么了?
 
A: I want you to help me choose clothes.
 
我想讓你幫我選衣服。
 
B: So, you admit that I’m an excellent judge of clothes?
 
所以,你承認(rèn)我選衣服很有眼光嘍。
 
A: What I‘m going to buy are not ordinary clothes. I’ll wear them on Halloween.
 
我要買的可不是普通衣服,要在萬圣節(jié)上穿。
 
B: Oh, I see. You have to dress up as ghosts, skeletons, witches, or devils. Does Harvard have such a tradition to celebrate Halloween?
 
哦,我明白了。你們要打扮得像鬼呀、骷髏呀、女巫或魔鬼一樣。哈佛有慶祝萬圣節(jié)這個(gè)傳統(tǒng)嗎?
 
A: How can Harvard miss such a big event? Every year, Harvard will host Halloween Costume Catwalk, in which students dress up as anything they like and to compete for glory.
 
哈佛怎么能錯(cuò)過這么大的節(jié)日呢?每年哈佛都會舉行萬圣節(jié)服裝走秀,學(xué)生們可以任意打扮,爭奪榮耀。
 
B: It’s a competition? What awards are there?
 
是個(gè)比賽?都有什么獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)?
 
A: Best Impersonation, Best Couple, Best Group, Most Creative, and Most Scandalous.
 
最佳裝扮獎(jiǎng)、最佳雙人組含獎(jiǎng)、最佳團(tuán)體獎(jiǎng)、最佳創(chuàng)意獎(jiǎng)、最不體面獎(jiǎng)。
 
B: Quite formal.
 
挺正式的。
 
A: Students like it very much. Some feel they were kids again.
 
學(xué)生們都很喜歡,一些人感到又回到了童年。
 
B: Everyone seems to value this chance very much. You must dress yourself with elaborate care.
 
每個(gè)人似乎都很珍視這個(gè)機(jī)會,你一定要盛裝打扮。
 
A: That’s why I ask you to help me.
 
所以我才讓你幫我。
 
B: I think you’d better design the costume yourself. Maybe you can win the Most Creative.
 
我覺得你最好自己設(shè)計(jì)服裝,說不定還能臝最佳創(chuàng)意獎(jiǎng)呢。
 
A: I don’t have confidence.
 
我沒有信心。
 
B: You can count on me. By the way, it’s almost the end of the term. How is your study? Do you have time to prepare for this?
 
包在我身上。隨便問一下,快期末了,你學(xué)習(xí)怎么樣了?有時(shí)間準(zhǔn)備這些嗎?
 
A: Speaking of this, I,m eager to see the Primal Scream.
 
說起這個(gè),我很想去看看"原始尖叫"。
 
B: What’s that?
 
那是什么?
 
A: If Costume Catwalk is featured by splendid finery, Prime Scream is famous for the boldness of students who should wear no clothes!
 
如果說服裝走秀的特點(diǎn)是盛裝,那原始尖叫就是因?qū)W生們有膽量不穿衣服而出名。
 
B: Naked? Crazy! What the hell do they do?
 
裸體?真瘋狂!他們到底都干什么?
 
A: Every semester the night before finals,hundreds of students go in droves to Harvard Yard to do one of two things: to run around the Yard completely naked or to watch eveiyone else running around the Yard completely naked.
 
每學(xué)期期末考試前一晚,上百名學(xué)生成群結(jié)隊(duì)地到哈佛園去做兩件事:繞著哈佛園裸奔,或者,觀看其他人裸奔。
 
B: Completely naked? Don,t they feel cold in such a cold winter?
 
全裸?這么冷的天他們不冷嗎?
 
A: Ok, ok, most of them do wear shoes and no one wants frostbitten toes. But no shirts, no pants, no nothing covering their private parts.
 
好吧,好吧,大部分人的確穿著鞋,沒人想凍傷腳趾。但沒穿T恤,沒穿短褲,沒有遮住隱私部位。
 
B: Totally crazy! Why is it called Prime Scream? Do they scream? Why do they do such a crazy thing?
 
完全瘋了!為什么叫原始尖叫呢?他們尖叫嗎?為什么要做這么瘋狂的事呢?
 
A: As they run, they scream at the top of their lungs in order to release pent-up energy after being cooped up in the library for so long and to express their frustration about the looming exam period.
 
他們邊跑邊歇斯底里地叫,在圖書館里悶了這么久,就是想發(fā)泄一下,把氣撒在即將到來的考試身上。
 
B: Do a lot of people go to watch it?
 
很多人去看嗎?
 
A: A good number of student watch . I’m curious about it. But it‘s a little embarrassing to watch those naked students running.
 
挺多的。我很好奮,但又覺得不好意思去看人裸奔。
 
B: I think so. I can hardly imagine it. American people are indeed very open. How do you see it? You said it’s a tradition at Harvard. Most students must understand and support it.
 
我想也是。很難想象,美國人果然很開放。你怎么看待這件事?你說這是哈佛的一項(xiàng)傳統(tǒng),那肯定大部分學(xué)生都理解和支持了。
 
A: Not necessarily. A lot of American students don’t like it, not to mention me. Once Iasked my roommate whether he would join in the activity this year. He said no.
 
也不一定。很多美國學(xué)生都不喜歡,別說是我了。有一次我問我室友他會不會去參加今年的裸奔,他說不。
 
B: Why? Did he give any reason?
 
為什么?他的理由呢?
 
A: He said“ I want to try such a crazy thing, yet it’s impossible to ignore the hundreds of people gathering around to watch, the cameras hashing, the video-cameras recording. Now imagine, what with the Internet and all, millions of people could have access to these photos and footage. Creepy, right?"
 
他說:“我想嘗試這么瘋狂的事,但不能對圍觀的幾百號人及拍照的照相機(jī)和錄像的攝像機(jī)視而不見。想想,因?yàn)橛辛司W(wǎng)絡(luò)和其他東西,會有幾百萬人看到這些照片和錄像。不寒而栗,對吧?”
 
B: Yes. If they want to give vent to their pressures, they can find a more mild way. It’s really creepy to find oneself naked on YouTube.
 
是的,如果他們想發(fā)泄的話,可以找一些更溫和的方式。在YouTube上發(fā)現(xiàn)自己裸著的樣子,真可怕。
