Now Jennifer, would you like to help me with a little experiment?
对了Jennifer,你能帮我做个小实验吗?
Sure, what do you need me to do?
当然可以啊,要我怎么做?
Just stay there, don’t move.
站在那,别动。
OW! Why did you do that?
啊,你干嘛打我?
Did it hurt?
疼吗?
Of course it did!
当然疼啊。
All in the name of science and learning English Jennifer because today we’re talking about pain! And I wanted to find out if you have a high pain threshold.
呵呵,刚刚打你完全是以科学的名义,而且也是为了学习英语。因为我们今天讨论的话题和疼痛有关,我想看看你能否忍受高度疼痛。
Well you could have just asked – you didn’t have to hit me!
好吧,那你直接问我就好了,根本没必要打我嘛。
Ah, yes, I suppose I could have. Sorry about that. Anyhow, moving on, here’s today’s question.
呃,对,我想是该问问你。对不起。但不管怎样,我们还得继续做节目。今天的问题是这样的。
An anaesthetic is a drug or gas used to stop pain, particularly during medical procedures, but which language does the word come from?
麻醉剂是一种用于止痛的药物或气体,尤其在医疗过程中使用特别普遍。那么你知道这个单词的词源是哪里吗?
Greek, Latin or Old Norse? What do you think Jennifer?
是来自希腊语、拉丁语还是古斯堪的那维亚语?Jennifer,你觉得呢?
Well I think there are a lot of words from the Greek language when it comes to medicine and things like that so I’ll say Greek.
啊,我觉得吧,有很多医学类单词都是来自希腊语,所以我选第一个,希腊语。
OK, we’ll find out if you’re right at the end of the programme. Now Jennifer, do you think pain is a good thing.
好,节目最后我们将揭晓答案,看看你答对了没有。Jennifer,你觉得疼痛是件好事吗?
Well, I’d rather not have it, but I suppose it does tell us that something is wrong.
呃,我宁愿不疼痛,不过话说回来,我觉得疼痛确实表明身体出了问题。
Do you think it would be better not to be able to feel pain.
那要是感觉不到疼痛,是不是更好?
Well I think that would be great, particularly after the introduction to this programme!
嗯,我觉得不错,特别是今天刚刚介绍完节目的时候。

Steve Pete来自美国华盛顿,他天生患有一种罕见的疾病,就是感觉不到身上的疼痛。Steve Pete接受了BBC电台的采访,让我们来了解一下他的病情。你是什么时候被诊断出患有这种疾病的呢?
Well I was diagnosed with it at a young age. I was a toddler when I began chewing pretty much the whole front portion of my tongue off.
我很小的时候。那时我还是个蹒跚学步的小孩,我把自己的舌头前面整个部分全咬掉了。
