Are you alright, Neil? Are you playing on your smartphone again, are you?
你还好么？你又在玩手机对不对？
Err... what was that? Yeah, sorry, Rob… just doing something on my smartphone,you know, the kind of phone which allows you to go online.
额，怎么了，对不起，我就是看看手机，你懂得，手机可以上网就..
Oh I can see that. But are you waiting for a call? 
我懂， 你在等电话么？
No. No, I just carry it with me at all times. Where I go, the phone goes. No phone, no Neil!
不，我只是随时都带着，我去哪儿手机去哪儿，手机在，人在。
OK, but why do you need your phone so much? 
这样，你为什么离不开手机啊？
Why?! What if I need to need to go somewhere? How will I find my way?What about the weather? Will it rain today? I need to know these things.
为什么？万一我需要去某个地点，不认得路怎么办？天气什么样的？会不会下雨？这些我都需要了解。
Why don’t you just look up in the sky and see if it is cloudy?
为什么不抬头看看天，有没有乌云呢？
Look up to see if it is going to rain?! I have an app - which is short for an application, which is a computer programme for a specific purpose. My app tells me the weather... and this one does all the maths I need… and here’s one for translations, and this one here... can tell me what I’m going to…
看看天然后判断会不会下雨？ 我有一个手机应用，就是一个专门的应用程序。这个程序会告诉我天气状况，还有的可以做计算器，还有一个可以翻译，这个程序可以告诉我线路图。
OK, OK, OK, I get the point. Today we’re talking about computers - and we’ll bring you some words connected with the digital age.
好的好的我明白了，今天我们就来谈谈电脑，也会介绍一些相关词汇。
Connected - to connect - we use this verb a lot. It means ’to link, or join, one thing to another thing. In this case, connected means ’linked to the internet’.
这个词语经常用，意思是把什么东西连接、加入到什么中去。在这里，指的是连上网络。
OK, I can see you are very excited about computers. So that’s what my question is all about. The first commercially produced "desktop computer" was designed and produced by the Italian company Olivetti and presented at an event in New York.When did it happen? Was it in:a) 1955b) 1965 orc) 1975 
我发现你对电脑很感兴趣。我的问题来了，第一台台式电脑是意大利 Olivetti公司设计生产的，第一次亮相于美国纽约是哪一年呢？选项有：a)1955年b)1965年c)1975年
Well, I think it’s (a) 1955.
好吧我猜是a) 1955年。
Very interesting. You’ll get the right answer at the end of the programme. Now, let’s talk about computers. You can’t live without them but American technology writer Nicholas Carr, the author of a book called ’The Glass Cage - where automation is taking us’, thinks they might cause problems.
答案将在节目后期揭晓。接下来我们聊聊电脑，电脑对于人们生活必不可少，然而美国科技作家Nicholas Carr——著有《玻璃箱》，却有不同看法，认为在控制我们并将产生问题。
Problems?! They cause us problems when they crash - that’s what we say when our computer suddenly stops working.
