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!
周末,我看了《飞屋环游记》这部电影,它十分让我感动……每一个细节深深的印在我的心里,每一个情节都是那么扣人心弦。
卡尔和他的妻子艾利有一个梦想,就是住到仙境瀑布去,可是直到妻子病逝,他也70岁时这个梦想一向都没有实现。之后,城市里造了高楼大厦,工人们要把卡尔的房子拆了,并把他送到敬老院去。就在这时,他遇见了一位叫罗素的小男孩,他十分开朗,只剩下帮忙老人章没有,可是卡尔拒绝了他的帮忙。当卡尔把气球都放出来,已经升上天空时,才发现罗素也跟了上来。
途中他们遇见了积雨云,卡尔睡着了,醒来时已经到了南美洲,卡尔想让罗素回家,却发现这就是仙境瀑布,并遇到了大鸟凯文和小狗逗逗。可是,他们看到了冒险家蒙兹,蒙兹抓住了大鸟凯文。罗素要去救凯文,抛下了卡尔,虽然卡尔住到了瀑布旁边,实现了自我和爱妻的梦想,可他并不欢乐,因为,他失去了伙伴。卡尔救回罗素、凯文和逗逗,和他们过着开心的生活,罗素也得到了帮忙老人章。
卡尔为了妻子这个梦想,他选择了远行,完成这个愿望。实现梦想有一点艰难,他们一开始存钱就为了那个梦想,可是生活的需要阻挡大家。停止他们前行的`步伐,一次次的砸存钱罐,一次次地满了钱罐,岁月飞快地离去,艾利已经坐上了轮椅,无法开始远行的计划,留下梦想和回忆,直到艾利死去。
佚名说过:“在许愿时,必须要深信不疑。如果你不相信自我有本事让愿望成真,你的愿望就会飞走,再也看不见。但那正说明了最重要的一点。如果你所期望的是有可能实现得了的,那么你有可能会不惜一切地去实现它。最大的魔力不在于许愿,而在于去做。”每个人的都有属于自我的梦想,大多数人都觉得它很虚幻,将它埋在心底,连机会都不给它,这样,梦想不会开出花儿。
梦想的力量无穷,它让多少人获得期望,继续奋斗,取得成功。莱特兄弟因为梦想,发明出了飞机。爱因斯坦有了梦想,创造出了电灯。司马迁靠着梦想,写出《史记》……人必须要有梦想,这样的人最有难以破灭的精神,坚持不懈地去取得成功,我们必须要去勇敢应对困难才行。柳岩也说过:“梦想”是一个多么“虚无缥缈不切实际”的词呀。在很多人的眼里,梦想只是白日做梦,可是,如果你不曾真切的拥有过梦想,你就不会理解梦想的珍贵。”卡尔就是因为有梦想支持者他才实现了。
我也有自我的梦想,就是成为一名教师,用趣味的方法教别人知识,我必须要向这个梦想前进!我必须会努力,让我的这份梦想实现,像卡尔的飞屋一样飞起来的!

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。
