Now Harry, have you ever taken a ’selfie’ – that’s a photo of yourself, usually with your mobile phone?
哈里，你有没有自拍过，就是说用手机拍自己的照片。
Yes, I have. I’ve taken them all over London with my children – of course selfies are very easy to take with your smartphone and recently we’ve seen some famous selfies featuring well-known people such as the one taken by actor, Ellen DeGeneres at last year’s Oscars ceremony.
当然有，在伦敦的时候，我经常和孩子们自拍。用智能手机自拍非常方便。最近我们还看到一些很有名的名人自拍，像去年奥斯卡颁奖典礼上艾伦·德杰尼勒斯的那张自拍照。
Yes, it seems that there are no limits to the places where you can capture yourself in a photo.But there is a limit on how far you can stretch your arm out and take a snap – a quick photo – of you and your friends.
恩，似乎没有地方限制自拍。但是你和你朋友伸胳膊拍快照时会不方便。
That’s true, so thank goodness for the selfie stick – an expanding pole to put your smartphone on which gives you a wider view.This means you can take in more of the background. Sounds like a good idea.
是的，所以得亏有自拍杆——把手机放在自拍杆的一端，举起拍照时，可以得到更广阔的风景。也就是说，照片的背景会更广。这真是一个好发明。
It does, but it’s also causing a problem in some places around the world.More on that in a moment but let’s not forget I have a question to ask you Harry.
确实。但是在世界的一些地方，自拍杆会带来一些困扰。针对这个还有很多要说的，不过我要先问你一个问题。
OK Neil.
好的，尼尔。
Well, we know some people love to take photos of themselves but perhaps not as much as Patrick Peterson. According to Guinness World Records he has taken the most ’selfies’ in one hour – but do you know how many? Is it:
我们知道一些人喜欢自拍，但肯定没有帕特里克·彼得森拍得多。根据吉尼斯世界纪录，他创下了一小时内拍照数量最多的记录，你知道达到多少张吗？
a) 449
a) 449
b) 1,449
b) 1,449
c) 2,449
c) 2,449
Well, I guess he’s gotta move and be in a different position so I’m not going to go for the highest one. I’m gonna say1,449.
我猜他是移动拍摄，在不同的位置拍。所以我不猜最多的那个。我选1449.
OK, well, we’ll find out the answer at the end of the programme. But now let’s talk more about the dangers of the selfie stick! They can certainly be useful for taking photos from a different viewpoint and it does mean that you get more people in your photo.
好的，节目的最后我们会公布正确答案。现在我们来谈谈自拍杆的危险。自拍杆确实可以帮助我们从不同的角度拍照片，这也意味着你的照片中涵盖的人会更多。
