标题:美语三级跳 Go English:015B 电视节目: 中级课程 听力内容: Will和Jane在约会时聊天,谈到了"sitcom", 也就是situation comedy - 情景喜剧。 Professor: Hey Winnie, have you ever watched any American sitcoms? 我以前看过Friends--“六人行”,这算是个sitcom吧? Professor: That's right! Now let's see what sitcoms Will and Jane like to watch. Will: So Jane, I know that you like watching reality TV. But what about sitcoms? Jane: I used to watch Friends religiously! I cried when it went off the air in 2004. Will: Oh yeah, Friends was a really popular sitcom. But wasn't it pretty unrealistic? None of the characters worked very often, but they had a huge apartment in New York city. Jane: Who cares? Sitcoms are supposed to be funny. They're not supposed to be like real life. 原来,Jane也是“六人行”的粉丝! 她说得对,sitcom追求的是搞笑、好玩儿,谁会在乎情节的真实性啊! 对了,professor, Jane说她以前watch Friends “religiously”,这是什么意思呢? Professor: It means she was very serious about watching the show. 哦,我明白了,如果做什么事情是本着"religiously"的态度,就表明你是雷打不动,一直在很认真地做。Jane看“六人行”一定是集集不落! 她还说,2004年这个节目went off the air -“停播”的时候,她都哭了! |
