A：Hey, Jimmy, you've been sitting in front of the TV all day. Anything interesting on TV?喂,吉米,你在電視機前坐了一天了,電視上有什么有意思的節(jié)目嗎?

B：Not really. Quite boring right now, actually. Mostly infomercials and public serveice announcements.沒有啊.其實現在挺無聊的,凈是長篇的購物廣告和公共服務通知.

A：Why don't you turn off the TV and get outside? You need to get some fresh air.那位什么不把電視關了出去走走呢?你需要呼吸點新鮮空氣.

B：I know, I know.But my favorite show is on in a couple of minutes. It's the series finals, and I wouldn't miss it for the world!知道了知道了.不過我最喜歡的節(jié)目幾分鐘后就要開始了,是這部戲的大結局,我無論如何都不會錯過的.

A：Really? What's the series about?是嗎?這部戲是關于什么的呢?

B：Well, it's about how an immigrant girl achieve her dream in America. It's a sitcom but really quite smart and really funny. I think you'd like it.是講一個移民到美國的小女孩實現夢想的故事.雖然是情景喜劇,可是拍的很有內容也很有意思.我覺得你可能會喜歡.

A：It sounds interesting, but I am not a big fan of TV shows. They're time consuming and don't have much depth.聽起來挺有意思.不過我不太喜歡看電視劇,我覺得電視劇花太多時間,而且沒有深度.

B：I believe some shows are quite informative and interesting. Take this show for example, it examines American xenophobia and how it might conflict with the American dream, with hilarious results.我認為有一些節(jié)目的信息量還是挺大的,也挺有意思.那這個電視劇來說,它就審視了美國人對外來移民的抵制心態(tài),還講了這種心態(tài)如何與美國夢之間產生矛盾,以及這種矛盾帶來的滑稽后果.

A：Really? that's interesting!真的?聽起來挺有意思的.

B：Yeah.Oh, here it comes! why don't we watch it together? they are going to have a court debate in this episode. It should be good.是這樣的.哦,開始了,我們可以一起看啊.這一集里他們要在法庭上辯論,應該挺好看的.

A：OK, I'll give it a go.好的,那就看看吧.
