Life-Then and Now 生活-过去和现在
Todd: Hey Meg, so I thought we would talk about then and now, the present and the past.
托德:嘿,梅格,我们来谈谈那时和现在,现在和过去。
Meg: Sounds good.
梅格:听上去不错。
Todd: So, it's very easy to compare things, compare things now, and sometimes people think things were better in the past, or things were worse in the past, so let's see what you think. The first one is are you happier now than you were last year?
托德:现在很容易对事情进行比较,有时人们认为以前更好,也有人认为以前更糟糕,我们来听听看你的想法。第一个问题是,你现在比去年更幸福吗?
Meg: Am I happier now? I think I'm about the same happiness level, so last year I was happy with my job and my family and my friends and this year I'm still happy. What about you? Are you happier now than last year?
梅格:我现在更幸福吗?我想我的幸福程度和去年差不多,去年我对我的工作、家庭和朋友感到满意,今年我依然感到很满意。你呢?你现在比去年更幸福吗?
Todd: I am happier because last year I was still in college in graduate school and I finished.
托德:我今年更幸福,因为去年我还在读研究生,而现在我已经毕业了。
Meg: Congratulations.
梅格:祝贺你。
Todd: Yes, and I have more free time now and because of that, I'm happier this year. Less stressed.
托德:嗯,我现在的空闲时间更多,所以我今年更幸福。压力更少。
Meg: Less stressed always makes up happier.
梅格:压力少通常就会更幸福。
Todd: OK, so the next one is do you think you are healthier these days than you were before, say ten years ago?
托德:好,下一个问题是你现在比以前更健康吗?比如和10年前的健康状况相比?
Meg: Actually no. I think I am not healthier than I was about ten years ago. Lately I've been so busy that I haven't been taking enough time to exercise or cook healthy food, so I would say I was probably healthier ten years ago. What about yourself? Are you healthier now or before?
梅格:实际上并不是。我认为我现在并不比10年比更健康。最近我一直非常忙,没有足够的时间锻炼或烹饪健康的食物,所以我想我可能10年前更健康一些。你呢?你现在比以前更健康吗?
Todd: I think I'm healthier actually. Even though I'm a little fatter than I was ten years ago, I drink less and I eat more vegetables. I eat less fast food. I think I get more sleep, and I feel less stressed, so I think I am a little bit healthier than I was ten years ago.
托德:我认为我现在更健康。虽然我现在比10年前胖一些,不过我喝酒少了,而且我现在吃的蔬菜更多。我现在很少吃快餐。另外,我的睡眠时间更多了,我感觉压力少了,所以我想我现在比10年前更健康一些。
Meg: Yeah, that definitely sounds healthier.
梅格:对,听起来你现在肯定更健康。
Todd: But I'm older so that's ... you know.
托德:不过我年龄大了,你懂的。
Meg: Right, well older and healthier.
梅格:对,年龄大了,但是更健康了。
Todd: Right. OK, so how about stress? Are you more stressed now than you were five years ago?
托德:好。那压力呢?你现在的压力比5年前大吗?
Meg: That's a hard question. Probably I'm about the same, so I wouldn't say that I'm more stressed now, but five years ago I was finishing my master's degree, so that was also a stressful time, and lately I've been quite busy so I'm probably at the same stress level as five years ago. What about yourself? Are you more stressed now?
梅格:这是个很难回答的问题。可能我的压力差不多一样,我不会说我现在的压力更大,不过5年前我即将完成硕士学位,那时也是压力很大的时刻,而最近我一直很忙,所以我现在的压力程度可能和5年前一样。你呢?你现在压力更大吗?
Todd:I think I'm less stressed now actually because now I worry less than I did before, so before I was more stressed because I worried about everything, and now I've learned to let it go, let things go. I don't let them bother me.
托德:我想实际上我现在的压力更小,因为我现在担心的事情比以前少了,以前我压力更大,因为我对所有事情感到担心,而现在我学会了放手,让事情顺其自然。我不会再让那些事情烦扰我了。
Meg: That sounds like a good policy.
梅格:听起来是个不错的方法。
Todd: Yeah.
托德:对。
Meg: So, you think you're less worried now, but what about your future. Are you more worried about your future than before?
梅格:你认为你现在担心的更少了,那未来呢?相比于以前,你现在对未来更担心吗?
Todd: Ooh, you know what, yeah I do think I'm more worried about my future now because I'm older so I'm more worried about money. I'm more worried about what I'll be doing in ten years, job security, things like that, so sadly I am a little more worried about that.
托德:哦,你知道,我认为我现在更担心我的未来,因为我年纪大了,所以我对钱越来越担心。我对未来10年我要做的事情、还有就业保障等等感到越来越担心,不幸的是,我现在更担心这些事情。
Meg: There's a lot more to think about.
梅格:有很多要考虑的事情。
Todd: Yeah, so but I'm less worried about my life day to day. Everything happening around me, so I guess that's why I feel less worried than I was say five years ago.
托德:对,不过我现在对自己日常生活的担心比以前少了。现在我对周围所发生事情的担心更少了,我想这就是我的担忧比5年前少了的原因。
Meg: Right.
梅格:没错。
Todd: How about you? Are you more worried about your future these days?
托德:你呢?你现在对未来的担心比前多了吗?
Meg: I don't think so. I have a good job and I like where I live so I don't feel too worried about what I'll be doing next year or in five years, but probably I should plan ahead a bit more. Maybe I should be a little more worried, but I feel OK about the future.
梅格:我想并不是。我的工作不错,我喜欢我所生活的地方,所以我对明年或未来5年要做什么不太担心,不过可能我应该提前计划一下。也许我应该多担心一些,不过我对未来感觉还好。
Todd: Well, that's a very healthy attitude to have.
托德:嗯,这是一个非常健康的态度。
Meg: Yeah, it helps with the stress level as well.
梅格:对,那也有助于减少压力。
Media-Then and Now 媒体-那时和现在
Meg: Hey Todd, so continuing talking about thenand now, I was thinking we could switch to talkingabout just life in general.
梅格:嘿,托德,我们继续来讨论“那时和现在”,我想我们可以把话题转向日常生活。
Todd: Sounds good.
托德:听上去不错。
Meg: So my first question for you is are movies today more interesting than before?
梅格:我第一个问题是,你认为现在的电影比以前的电影更有意思吗?
Todd: Well. I'm gonna sound like an old guy, but I would say no, movies are not moreinteresting today. Movies were much better, twenty, thirty years ago. The stories were better. They were more interesting. These days movies just have too much special effects, and there'stoo many movies about superheroes. I hate movies about superheroes. So yeah, I think moviesused to be more interesting. What do you think?
托德:嗯。听起来我可能像上了年纪的人,不过我的回答是不是,现在的电影并不比以前的电影有意思。二三十年前的电影更好。以前的电影剧情更好,也更有意思。现在的电影加了太多特效,而且超级英雄类的电影太多了。我讨厌超级英雄的电影。所以我认为以前的电影更有意思。你怎么看?
Meg: I have the opposite opinion of you. I think movies today are more interesting than before. Maybe I'm too used to a lot of special effects, so when I watch some older movies, the storymight be interesting, but I get a little bored watching it and actually I love superhero movies.
梅格:我和你的看法不同。我认为现在的电影比以前的有意思。也许我已经很习惯大量特效场面了,所以我在看老电影时,虽然电影情节很有意思,不过在观看时我觉得有些无聊,实际上我很喜欢超级英雄电影。
Todd: Oh really?
托德:哦,真的吗?
Meg: So I would say that yes, any superhero movies - Spiderman or Batman especially is myfavorite so those movies for me are more interesting than in the past.
梅格:所以……对,我喜欢所有超级英雄电影……我的最爱是《蜘蛛侠》或《蝙蝠侠》,所以我认为这些电影比以前的电影更有意思。
Todd: OK, well we're talking about comparatives, so who's cooler Batman or Spiderman?
托德:好,我们来比较一下,蝙蝠侠和蝙蝠侠谁更酷?
Meg: Oh, Batman. Hands down.
梅格:哦,当然是蝙蝠侠。
Todd: I'm sorry. I think Spiderman's really lame. I've never liked Spiderman.
托德:抱歉,我认为蜘蛛侠很差劲。我从来没喜欢过蜘蛛侠。
Meg: He kind of whines a lot.
梅格:他经常发牢骚。
Todd: He looks like a kid in his pajamas.
托德:他看起来像穿着睡衣的孩子。
Meg: He is a kid in his pajamas.
梅格:他是穿着睡衣的孩子。
Todd: Maybe that's it.
托德:也许就是这样。
Meg: Whereas Batman has a lot of skills that he's developed himself, so.
梅格:相反,蝙蝠侠有很多技能,而且还会开发新能力。
Todd: True, true. OK, well how about Batman, so like who is better?
托德:对,没错。那就扮演蝙蝠侠的演员来说,你觉得谁演得更好?
Meg: Who is the best Batman?
梅格:谁是蝙蝠侠最佳扮演者?
Todd: Yeah, so who is better? Who was the last one? It was ...
托德:对,谁演的更好?上次扮演蝙蝠侠的演员是谁来着?
Meg: Well, the most recent Batman was Ben Affleck, but I didn't watch that one.
梅格:在最新一部系列电影中扮演蝙蝠侠的是本·阿弗莱克,不过我没看过那部电影。
Todd: OK.
托德:好。
Meg: So before that, there was Christian Bale.
梅格:在他之前,扮演者是克里斯蒂安·贝尔。
Todd: Oh, that's right.
托德:哦,没错。
Meg: So without having seen Ben Affleck, I would still say that Christian Bale was a betterBatman.
梅格:我没看过本·阿弗莱克版的蝙蝠侠,我认为克里斯蒂安·贝尔的演绎更好。
Todd: Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure. OK, so let's talk about other things. How about the news? Withnews are you more knowledgable these days than before, say five ten years ago?
托德:对,我也是,我也这么认为。我们来谈谈其他事情吧。新闻呢?就新闻来说,你现在比以前了解的新闻范围更广、更全面吗,比如和5年前相比?
Meg: Actually, I think I am less knowledgable than before. There's a lot of news out there, andit's easy to access the news but there's so much news coming from so many sources, I'm notsure which news service is more trustworthy, so I think it's more difficult now to find thecorrect news. The true news. What do you think?
梅格:实际上,我认为我现在比以前了解的更少了。现在有很多新闻,很容易获取新闻,但是新闻的来源太多,我不知道哪个来源更可信,所以我认为现在很难找到准确的、真实的新闻。你怎么看?
Todd: I agree. Sadly I think I am less knowledgable because before I would read thenewspaper, or I would read magazine articles or I would listen to better news stories on thenews. These days I just look at a Facebook headline and I don't even read the article, so I don'teven know what's going on sometimes. Which is terrible for a man my age.
托德:我同意。不幸的是,我认为我现在也比以前接触的新闻少了,因为以前我会看报纸,或是看杂志文章、收听新闻。而现在我只是看脸谱网头条,但是不会点进去看文章,有时我甚至不知道发生了什么事。对一个我这么大年纪的人来说,这太糟糕了。
Meg: Terrible for anyone I think.
梅格:我认为对所有人来说都很糟糕。
Todd: Yeah, I think it's because I think the news was more honest than before, than now, sorry. I think the news is less honest these days. It used to be more honest. I just don't trustthe news anymore.
托德:对,我认为以前的新闻比现在更真实。我认为现在的新闻不太真实。以前更真实一些。我只是不再相信新闻了。
Meg: Yeah, I don't really trust it either.
梅格:对,我也不相信新闻了。
Todd: Yeah, less trustworthy.
托德:对,可信性小了。
Meg: So along those lines, would you say social media makes life better or worse for people?
梅格:从这方面来说,你认为社交媒体是使人们的生活更好了还是更糟了?
Todd: I think it's both, like I think it's you know, three points better, two points worse, so it's anegative. It's better because you can keep track of so many family members, especially ifyou're far away, so I like how it connects people, yeah, it just makes people sad sometimes, ormakes them frustrated about their life maybe, so yeah, I don't think it makes life better. ButI'm an old guy, so...
托德:我认为两者都有,有些方面更好了,有些方面更糟了,我认为是负面影响。社交媒体使人们的生活更好了,是因为你可以和很多家庭成员保持联系,尤其是你在远方的时候,用社交媒体和家人联系非常方便,我很喜欢这点,但是有时社交媒体会让人感到伤心,或者是让人们对生活感到失望,所以我认为社交媒体并没有使生活变得更好。不过也许可能因为我年纪大了,所以……
Meg: Yeah, I think it's true. I think there are scientific studies to show that because of socialmedia, people compare themselves too much so it's quite appropriate that we are talkingabout comparison because people will see other people's lives on social media that look quitegood and they will compare themselves and feel bad about themselves, or for some people Ithink it has made it worse, but like you, I agree that some points are better like seeing picturesfrom my family.
梅格:对,我认为你说的没错。有科学研究表明,由于社交媒体的出现,人们进行了过多的比较,比较这个词非常贴切,因为人们可以在社交媒体上看到其他人的生活,别人的生活看起来非常好,他们会拿自己去比较,然后会觉得自己的生活很糟糕,对有些人来说社交媒体使他们的生活变得更糟了,和你一样,我同意的确在有些方面使人们的生活更好了,比如可以通过社交媒体看到家人的照片。
Todd: Yeah, so true.
托德:对,没错。
