The manner in which TV series in the UK are aired can be highly frustrating at times. Sometimes you only get three episodes of a show and then nothing else for a couple of years.
英剧的播出方式偶尔会令人心情跌到谷底,有时只只播出前,之后便沉寂数年。
While waiting for more episodes is frustrating, it does allow a lot of interesting ideas to make it onto TV screens, thus always offering audiences something exciting to watch.
虽然追剧是件令人抓狂的事,但这样一来,也为荧幕上的一些奇思妙想提供了沃土,从而不断为观众带来惊喜。
One such exciting idea is the mini-series Black Mirror. Aired on Channel 4 in the UK, it’s a series of three unrelated one-hour short movies that all offer a twisted commentary on technology.
迷你剧《黑镜子》便是这样一部令人欣喜的作品。这部在英国第四频道播出的剧集由三个时长一小时的独立短片构成,全部反映出对于科技的一种几近扭曲的注释。
For those not familiar with the series, let’s take a look at some of the intriguing yet strange topics of the previous episodes so that you can get an idea.
有人可能还不熟悉该剧,我们来“科普”一下前几集里妙趣横生,而又匪夷所思的主题。
In one story, an unknown person kidnaps a British princess and posts a ransom video on YT. The video says that the princess will be set free if the British prime minister performs an indecent act with a pig on live TV.
其中一集中,匿名人士绑架了英国公主,接着在视频网站YT上发布勒索视频。视频中,绑匪要求英国首相公开在电视上与一只猪进行一段不雅表演以换取公主的平安归来。
Another story is set in a future where people must pedal bikes in order to generate power for the world and earn money that they can spend only on food, skipping TV ads, other entertainment and to change their online avatar.
另一个故事架构于未来世界,在那里人们必须通过骑车发电来维持世界的运转,同时为自己赚取消费点数。这些“货币”只能用来够买食物、跳过电视广告、参加其他一些文娱活动以及更换自己的虚拟形象。
In the third and final episode of season two, which aired on Feb 27, a computer-generated character from a TV show is jokingly put forward to become a member of Parliament.
作为本季的收官之作,《黑镜子》第二季的第三集于2月27日播出。在这集中,一档电视节目中的'虚拟人物仿佛开玩笑般地提出要竞选国会议员。
One of the joys of watching Black Mirror is that as an anthology series it changes its setting, characters and theme in each episode, always leaving viewers unsure about what to expect in the next installment.
观看《黑镜子》的乐趣之一就在于:像这样一部多段式剧集故事集,每集都会有着不同的故事背景、人物以及主题,观众永远不知道下一集会是什么内容。
But the series presents a world in which anything is possible thanks to technology — a hard, cold fact that is less joyous to digest.
而该剧却为人们呈现出一个“科技无所不能”的世界,这个严酷而不争的事实一时令人难以接受。
The stories, often through extreme situations, explore the human anxieties that surround technology: when we enjoy science but ignore morality, will we suffer a disaster?
这些故事往往通过极端的状况来探寻被科技包围的人们内心的焦虑:当我们享受科技而忽视道德时,我们是否在自掘坟墓?
Charlie Brooker, creator of the series, described Black Mirror as being about “the way we live now — and the way we might be living in 10 minutes’ time if we’re clumsy”.
该剧的编剧查理布鲁克称《黑镜子》展现的就是“我们现在的生活方式——或者如果我们还是这样继续冥顽不灵的话,这将是我们十分钟后的生活方式。”
I’ve always enjoyed TV series and movies that make people think. Black Mirror is undoubtedly a thought-provoking experiment and a refreshing change from other programs on the schedule.
我一直很对这种发人深省的影视剧情有独钟。《黑镜子》无疑是一次引人深思的尝试,不同于同档的其他一些节目,令观众耳目一新!

9月28号,终于等来了盼望已久的这个学期的第一次电影课了。听说要看《驯龙高手》这部电影的时候,我更兴奋了,嗯,至少是部动画片。
当电影一开始,它一说到“维京人”的时候,我就觉得特别耳熟。原来,“维京人”就是北欧海盗,敢大胆地抢劫当时海上第一大国西班牙的商船。看完这个电影,更觉得他们大胆了,他们居然敢跟龙接触。这个电影讲的就是海盗首领的儿子小嗝嗝和一条号称龙里面最凶猛的夜煞接触,然后一起找到龙总是抢劫的原因,最后和海盗、一些龙一起打败不给它食物就要吃龙的巨龙。
我觉得这部电影的亮点有两处。一是各式各样的.龙,二是主人公和夜煞合作击败巨龙那一段。我一直都挺喜欢龙的,觉得它们挺好玩儿的,看这个电影刚好满足了我的愿望。这里面的龙不是那种普通的全都长成一个样子的,有两个脑袋的、超级无敌大脑袋的、能自己着火、没有肉、全身都是骨头、尾巴上带着锤子的……
这部电影就是借龙来说明,当你看到一个有丑恶一面的可怕的东西时,要想到这并不一定是它的本性,你要找到它变得凶猛的原因,你也许就会发现它纯真、善良的本性。好多电影都是想说明这样的道理,你不要轻易地给某种事物定性,而是要找到解决问题的办法。
今天我们去音乐厅观看了电影《驭龙高手》。
它是讲很久以前龙的部落和维京海盗部落经常互相攻打。一天,一个维京小男孩在林子里发现了一只龙,他本来想刺死它,但是他发现龙受了伤不能飞了,这可怎么办呢?于是他用纸制作了一个东西安装在了他的尾巴上,结果龙飞了起来。后来,小男孩驯服了那条龙,并把那条龙起名叫无牙。他们齐心协力打败了残暴的龙大王,维京人也和龙成了好朋友,那个男孩成了大英雄,他就是小嗝嗝。
我觉得小嗝嗝很勇敢、很善良。他用他的.善良之心把凶猛的夜煞驯服成温顺的龙,并帮助了维京人。要是没有残暴的龙大王,人是可以和龙做朋友的,是可以和平共处的。
不管是人还是动物只要有善良之心,就不会有战争存在。
