TED演講-口語練習(xí)：成為街頭圖書管理員

在TED演講節(jié)目中，演講者清晰的口語表達(dá)及其內(nèi)容的寫作手法都是值得我們學(xué)習(xí)借鑒的。在本期的TED演講中，演講者將通過舉例講述成為街頭圖書管理員的方法和意義。請(qǐng)結(jié)合視頻內(nèi)容，開始口語練習(xí)吧！

原文及翻譯

A book desert is an area or a community with limited access to books and reading materials. I slowly realized that I wasn't going to meet my neighbors who needed most inside libraries' walls, so I quit my job and took to the streets, becoming a radical street librarian. It's a term I use to refer to anyone doing work to increase literary access outside of traditional settings. 

書荒是指一個(gè)地區(qū)或一個(gè)社區(qū)，那里的書籍和閱讀材料獲取渠道有限。我慢慢意識(shí)到，在圖書館里，我無法遇到最需要幫助的鄰居，所以我辭去了工作，走上街頭，成為一名激進(jìn)的街頭圖書管理員。我用這個(gè)詞來指代任何在傳統(tǒng)環(huán)境之外努力增加文學(xué)獲取渠道的人。

In case you're wondering how to be a street librarian, here's what you can do: first, be radical. Share books in extraordinary ways and think outside the box. Perhaps host a block party book swap or a story time at a local laundry map (2nd B Street). Second, connect with your neighbors. Talk to people in your community. And third, embody the spirit of a librarian. Get your library card and match books to readers by considering their interests and experiences. 

如果你想知道如何成為一名街頭圖書管理員，你可以這樣做：首先，要激進(jìn)。以非凡的方式分享書籍，跳出思維定勢(shì)。也許可以在當(dāng)?shù)氐南匆碌辏˙ 街 2 號(hào)）舉辦街區(qū)圖書交換會(huì)或故事會(huì)。其次，與鄰居聯(lián)系。與社區(qū)里的人交談。第三，體現(xiàn)圖書管理員的精神。獲取借書證，并根據(jù)讀者的興趣和經(jīng)歷為他們匹配書籍。

I believe everyone is a reader; they just haven't found the right book yet, and that's where librarians step in. Many want to read but don't know where to get started, and visiting the most magical place on earth, the library, can be intimidating for non-library goers. We must meet them where they are and guide them along that journey.

我相信每個(gè)人都是讀者；他們只是還沒有找到合適的書，這時(shí)圖書管理員就可以介入了。許多人想讀書，但不知道從哪里開始，而參觀世界上最神奇的地方——圖書館，對(duì)不去圖書館的人來說可能是一種威脅。我們必須在他們所在的地方與他們見面，并引導(dǎo)他們踏上這段旅程。
