6页英语基础口语练习:视频游戏Todd: So, Eli, you”re young and you”re into Manga, so I take it you like video games? 托德:伊莱,你很年轻,你喜爱日本漫画,所以我想你喜爱视频嬉戏吧? Eli: Mm-hm, I do very much. It”s my other hobby. Um, almost an obsession sometimes. I think my friends get quite worried about me sometimes, the amount I play, but yeah I”ve always since I”ve been little liked computer games. I think my dad on his old macintosh forced us into it originally, so I blame it all on him, but that sort of developed into obviously in my field that I do which is animation. It”s very close connected to it, and I”d like to maybe work making computer games one day, uh. 伊莱:嗯,我特别喜爱。
这是我的另一个爱好有时甚至会入迷我想有时我的朋友特别担忧我,由于我玩的太多了,不过我从小就始终很喜爱电脑嬉戏我想是我爸爸用他那台麦金塔电脑把我们带进了嬉戏的世界,所以我始终怪他,不过是动画让我更加的深入了两者有特别严密的联系,我盼望有一天我能制作电脑嬉戏 Todd: What”s a really good game? What do you think is the best game? 托德:有什么好嬉戏?你认为哪个嬉戏是的? Eli: My favorite games are I think a split between two, the Final Fantasy series, which is a spread of lots of different games which are RPG which are role playing games, where you are, you”re a character, or party of characters and you run around talking to people, discovering things, fighting battles, lots and lots of puzzles, lots of secrets. That”s what I like. 伊莱:我最喜爱的嬉戏有两个,一个是《终极梦想》系列,它集中出很多不同的嬉戏,属于角色扮演嬉戏,你会扮演一个角色,或者是一个组织,你会去四处和人们交谈,发觉事情,进展打斗,有很多难题,很多隐秘。
这就是我喜爱的 Todd: Is the setting now or the future or the past? 托德:那嬉戏设定的背景是现在、将来还是过去? Eli: The setting”s always in some fantasy world, but you don”t know about. That”s kind of, that”s one of the nice things about computer games, it”s almost escapism. You can escape the reality of the real world and go and run around in some fantastical world I mean, now that the graphics and computer games are getting so advanced it really does feel like your going into a new world of your own actually,and that you”re there running around, so yeah, that”s great and I think my other favorite game would have to be the SIMS series, which is,started with SIM city, which is a little city building game, where you”re the mayor of the city. 伊莱:设定都是在梦想世界里,不过你并不清晰。
这就是电脑嬉戏的好处之一,总是躲避现实你可以逃离现实世界,去一些梦想世界里,我的意思是,既然图像和电脑嬉戏这么先进,就像你进入了一个自己的新世界里,你在那里奔驰,那特别棒,另一个我喜爱的嬉戏是《模拟人生》系列,是在一个模拟城市进展的,是一种建立城市的嬉戏,你是那里的市长 Todd: You”re the mayor! 托德:你是市长! Eli: You”re the mayor of the city and you have to build up your city over hundreds of years and advance it, and then from that they made the SIMs which actually goes into the houses and you control the lives of the little SIM people in the houses. It”s almost like playing dolls houses, but very, very advanced and they have their own wants and needs and they fall in love and they go to work and it”s basically just determining the destinies of your little character and furnishing their houses at the same time, which is always fun. 伊莱:你是那座城市的市长,你必需要建立拥有百年历史的城市,然后还要进展这个城市,而模拟人生嬉戏实际上就是进入一个房屋,你掌握嬉戏中房屋里的人。
这就像玩娃娃屋一样,不过这个很先进,他们有自己的欲望和需求,他们会谈恋爱,也会去工作,根本上就是打算你那个角色的命运,同时还要为他们的房屋布置家具,这特别有意思 Todd: Wow, what a game! So actually, shows how old I am, you said, “computer games!“ So you don”t say video games anymore? 托德:哇,多好的一个嬉戏啊!那实际上,这说明白我的年纪,你说的是“电脑嬉戏!”所以你不管那个叫视频嬉戏吗? Eli: Well, the SIMS and SIM City, I mean the first SIM City series I played on, probably the Mac had only just got a hard drive, um, really old when I was about, sort of seven or eight, even younger than that, so yeah, those PC games, mac games, and also video games, video games are Play Station, the ones that you play on the TV. 伊莱:嗯,《模拟人生》嬉戏和《模拟城市》嬉戏,我玩的第一个《模拟城市》嬉戏是在只有一个硬盘的苹果计算机上玩的,那是台特别老的电脑,当时我只有7、8岁,或者还要小,那些单机嬉戏,Mac嬉戏,还有视频嬉戏,视频嬉戏其实就是嬉戏机,就是在电视上玩的那种。
Todd: Which to you prefer a play station or an actual arcade game to play on? 托德:你更喜爱哪种,是嬉戏机还是街机嬉戏? Eli: Uh, I never actually got into arcade games, cause you got to put money in to play them so, and I don”t think my, our parents ever wanted us to sort of waste money like that so. 伊莱:嗯,我从来没有玩过街机嬉戏,由于玩那些嬉戏需要付钱,我想我的父母不盼望我们在那上面铺张钱 Todd: What kind of player do you have: a play station? 托德:那你有嬉戏机吗? Eli: I have a play station, and a Dreamcast, and an X box, and a Game Cube, and an N64 and a Gameboy. 伊莱:我有台嬉戏机,有一台Dreamcast嬉戏机,还有一台X box嬉戏机,一台Game Cube嬉戏机,还有一台N64和一台Gameboy嬉戏机。
Todd: Wow, I don”t even know what those are. 托德:哇,我甚至都不知道那些是什么 Eli: And a PC! 伊莱:还有个人电脑! 。
