随身英语Mobiles at the movies 在电影院里玩手机 Play audio file你每次去电影院期待看到什么？新上映的大片？或是坐你旁边的人边看电影边玩儿手机？本期《随身英语》探讨为什么现代人在影院里都不肯放下手机。你觉得在电影院里使用手机应该被禁止吗？ 课文内容词汇: Behaviour 行为、举止 Something I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema – the movies – to watch a great film. It's two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life. But when I kick-back in my seat to enjoy the film and tuck into my box of popcorn, I'm often irritated by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still, talking to someone. It's no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such outrage, that the company had to withdraw the idea. People said it was 'the worst idea ever'! Surely, going to watch the latest blockbuster is just that – watching not dual-screening. And if you're out with a friend it seems very antisocial or just rude. I certainly get distracted by the click-click on someone's mobile keyboard as they text and the glow of the bright small phone screen – why aren't they concentrating on the big screen?! |
