We’ve got a story about naming things this week.
这周我们关注的是一个关于命名的故事。
Yes, you know how streets or buildings are often named after a famous or successful person from the past.
的确,你知道有相当一部分街道和建筑物以过去的名人或成功人士的名字命名。
Here at the BBC in London there is a part of the building called the ‘Peel Wing’, named after a famous radio presenter called John Peel.He also used to have a show on the World Service.Can you give us another example, Rosie?
伦敦BBC大厦的一部分叫做"Peel Wing",是以一个叫做John Peel的著名电台播音员的名字命名。他过去常常出现在World Service这一档节目中。你能列举出其他例子吗,Rosie?
I like Liverpool John Lennon Airport because normally streets and buildings are named after rather boring old figures from history who no-one really cares about any more.John Lennon who had a big cultural impact on the world we live in today.
我喜欢利物浦的约翰列侬机场,因为街道和建筑物常常以历史中的名人为命名,而人们对这些人一点都不感兴趣。而约翰列侬对我们现在生活中的文化都有重要影响。
Well, our story today is about a rather unusual thing to be named after a well-known person.
好的,我们今天的故事就与以名人的名字命名的非常不平凡的东西有关。
Not a street, building or an airport but a fish!
不是街道,建筑物或是机场,而是一条鱼。
That’s right,but before we get onto that we have our quiz questions.Are you ready?
没错但是在我们了解这个故事之前,我们先看看测试的问题。你准备好了吗?
Yes I am.
准备好了。
Well, I’ve already mentioned John Lennon and I am a massive Beatles fan,so it’s a perfect excuse for a Beatles-related question.It’s a really easy one.What was the Beatles first UK number 1 hit?a) Love Me Do.b) Please Please Me.c) Yellow Submarine.
好的,刚才提过了约翰列侬,我是披头士的超级粉丝。这真是提出关于披头士问题的完美借口。这问题相当简单。披头士第一支全英销量第一的单曲是什么?Love me doPlease Please meYellow Submarine
I think it was a) Love Me Do.
我想应该是 Love Me Do
We’ll find out at the end of the programme.So, we are talking about naming things after famous people.This week, the British biologist, Richard Dawkins has had a fish named after him.
