口語原文及翻譯
I sometimes wonder what life will be like in the future. Life has changed so much in just the past few years. I'm sure that there are still big changes that are coming. Do you think we'll still drive cars? Maybe we'll get into computerized vehicles that we won't have to drive. We'll just push a few buttons and the vehicles will take us to wherever we have to go.
我有時會想未來的生活會是什么樣子。短短幾年間,生活發(fā)生了巨大的變化。我相信未來還會有巨大的變化。你認為我們還會開車嗎?也許我們會進入計算機化的車輛,我們不需要開車。我們只需按幾個按鈕,車輛就會帶我們去任何我們要去的地方。
Maybe there won't be roads; you might just fly through space to get where you want to go. Instead of telephones, we'll just use our computers. We'll be able to see each other when we talk. That type of thing is already happening. Maybe we won't have to cook our meals. We might be able to push buttons to order whatever we want. A nice roast beef dinner or an ice cream sundae might just pop out of a machine.
也許不會有道路;你可能只需飛越太空就能到達你想去的地方。我們不用電話,只需使用電腦。我們說話時就能看到對方。這種事情已經(jīng)發(fā)生了。也許我們不需要做飯。我們只需按一下按鈕就可以訂購任何我們想要的東西。一頓美味的烤牛肉晚餐或一份冰淇淋圣代可能會從機器里自動出來。
It would be nice to have a robot to clean the house for you. In the past few years, computers have been extremely important. People used to write to each other through the mail. Now people communicate so much more frequently through email. Most of my friends own computers. If we had all of these things to do the work for us, what would we do?
如果有一個機器人幫你打掃房子就好了。在過去的幾年里,電腦變得非常重要。人們過去通過郵件互相寫信?,F(xiàn)在人們通過電子郵件交流的頻率要高得多。我的大多數(shù)朋友都有電腦。如果我們有所有這些東西來為我們工作,我們會做什么?
We would still need people to program the computers. We could spend more time being creative, rather than doing everyday chores. The future holds many surprises. I'm sure that technology will become even more and more amazing. When my parents were young, they had never even seen a color television. Nobody owned a computer. It doesn't take long for things to change a lot. Who knows what amazing things are in store for us?
我們仍然需要人來編程計算機。我們可以花更多的時間進行創(chuàng)造性工作,而不是做日?,嵤隆N磥沓錆M驚喜。我相信技術會變得越來越神奇。當我的父母年輕的時候,他們甚至從未見過彩色電視。沒有人擁有電腦。事情很快就會發(fā)生很大的變化。誰知道我們會遇到什么奇妙的事情呢?
