如果我跟你说，fortnight，你会想到什么？
Well, that’s easy, Neil. A fortnight is a period of two weeks. 
好的，那很简单，尼尔。一个"fortnight"就是两周的时间。
Well, fortnight, spelt f-o-r-t-n-i-g-h-t, is indeed a period of two weeks. But Fortnite, spelt F-o-r-t-n-i-t-e, is an online computer game that has become incredibly popular in a very short period of time. 
好吧，拼写为f-o-r-t-n-i-g-h-t的"fortnight"，确实是两周的时间段。但是拼写为F-o-r-t-n-i-t-e的"Fortnite"，是在非常短的时间内变得非常流行的一款电脑网游。
As well as popular, it’s also very competitive. And you’re soon going to be able to make big money playing it. And you can even hire people to be your Fortnite coach. 
在流行的同时，它也非常有竞争性。而且玩这个游戏，你能很快挣大钱。并且你可以雇人当你《堡垒之夜》的指导。
Well, before we hear a little more about this topic, it’s time for our quiz. These days we play computer games on our phones, we can hold them in our hands. In1950 Bertie the Brain was the name of one of the very first computer games. It played a simple game of noughts and crosses, also called tic-tac-toe. But how tall was this computer? Was it… a) one metre tall; b) about four metres tall or c) about ten metres tall? 
好的，在我们听到更多主题内容之前，是我们测试问题的时间。现在我们在手机上玩电脑游戏，我们可以把它们拿在手里。在1950年Bertie the Brain是第一款电脑游戏的名字。它是简单画圈打叉游戏，也被叫做井字游戏。但是这个电脑有多高？ 是a) 1米高; b) 大约4米高 还是 c) 大约10米高 ？
Well, if it was the 1950s, computers were huge, so I’m going to go for ten metres. 
好吧，如果那是在20世纪50年代，电脑是巨大的，所以我会说是10米。
OK. Well, we’ll find out if you’re right at the end of the programme. eSports or computer games competitions are now a thing. In some markets they are huge and they are even discussing including them in the Olympic Games. Kyle Jackson is a 13-year-old gamer who’s been asked to join a team. How long does he say he’s been playing video games? 
好的。好吧，我们将会在节目最后揭晓你是否正确。电子竞技或者电脑游戏比赛现在是一种潮流。在一些市场，它们影响巨大并且甚至有讨论说将它们加入奥运比赛中。凯尔?杰克逊是一个13岁的玩家，他受邀加入一支队伍。他说他玩电子游戏多长时间？
I’ve played video games all my life, basically. I started playing competitively when I was around nine or ten. I got into like Halo, Call of Duty, games like that. And I just… I realised that I could probably like go to a pro (professional) level, if I keep playing at the level I am. 
基本上我一辈子都在玩电子游戏。我开始竞争性地玩是在我大约九、十岁的时候。我喜欢过《光环》、《使命召唤》那类的游戏。我只是……意识到如果以按我现在的水平来玩，我或许可以是职业玩家级别。
He said that he’s been playing computer games all his life. Now that might be a little exaggeration.But he’s probably been playing them ever since he can remember. When he was nine or ten he started playing competitively, which means he started playing in competitions against other people.
他说他一辈子都在玩电脑游戏。现在来看那或许有一点夸大。但是他或许从他记事起就一直玩电脑游戏。在他九岁或者十岁的时候就开始竞争性地玩，那指的是他开始和别人打比赛。
He talks about a number of games that he got into. This is a good expression. If you are into something, you are very interested in it. And "to get into something" describes the process of becoming interested in that thing.
