Conversation 1
Janet:
Hi, it‘s me again, Janet Li. I‘m still a student
at the University of
Oxford in England.
But I
‘
m not in Oxford right
now. And I haven
‘
t
gone
back
home
to
China
either.
It
‘
s
the
long
vacation
now,
and
believe
it
or
not,
it
‘
s
the
middle
of
summer.
I
‘
m
spending
my
summer in one of the
world
‘
s greatest cities.
I
‘
m in London, home
to
the
Houses
of
Parliament,
Big
Ben,
Tower
Bridge
…
and
the
double-decker bus. I
want to find out what it
‘
s
like to live in this
busy, lively city.
So I
‘
m working for London
Time Off, a website
about
what
‘
s on in London. This is
Joe
…
,
he
‘
s my boss, and this is
Andy, who is a reporter. And
what
‘
s my job? Well, I
don
‘
t know yet,
because it
‘
s my
first day. But I
‘
m meant to
be shadowing Andy, oh,
what I mean is,
I‘m
going to be helping him.
So can you tell me
something about
London, Andy?
Andy:
It
‘
s the greatest city in
the world. .
Joe: Except for New York!
Andy: New York?
Don
‘
t make me laugh!
Joe: And your point
is
…
?
Andy: Look,
if you want my opinion, London is greater than New
York
…
Joe: No, I
don
‘
t want your opinion,
thank you very much. It
‘
s a
fact.

Janet
：
So when did
you start working at London Time Off?
Andy: About a year ago.
Janet:
And
I
hope
you don‘t
mind
my
asking
,but
do
you
like
working
here?
Andy: Yes, I love it.
I mean, Joe and I get along quite well. He drives
me
crazy sometimes, because he‘s
m
y boss, and I wish I earned a bit
more money, but…I think my job is
really cool, because I get to
see
everything that‘s happening in London. And I
didn‘t want to
join the rat race.
Janet: What do you mean by the rat
race?
Andy:
You
know,
doing
the
same
thing
day
in
day
out,
and
not
doing
anything
creative,
or
having
any
time
to
enjoy
life.
It‘s
the
last
thing I want to do.
Janet: So do you mind telling me what
you do exactly?
Andy: Basically, we
check out new events on the London
music scene,

you
know,
new
clubs,
the
latest
plays
and
films,
as
well
as
exhibitions
in
galleries
and
museums.
Then
we
go
and
film
interviews
with
the
musicians
or
the
actors,
or
anyone
who
has
anything to do with the event.
Janet: Ok, then what happens?
Andy: We edit the interviews, and then
we upload it all onto the website.
We
get 200,000 hits a week. We‘re London‘s biggest
listings site.
Janet: Can I
ask you something else?
Andy: Fire
away.
Janet: What are we going to do
now?
Andy: I need to go back to my
flat, and get my researc
h. Then
we‘
ve got
an interview to
do. Let‘s get the tube back to my
place.
Janet: And what about
Joe?
Andy: Well, he‘s supposed to be on
his way to the National Theatre, to do
an interview with the director of a new
play. But I kind of hope he
gets
lost
on
the
way.
Then
he‘ll
discover
what
a
great
place
London is.
Janet: I don‘t
understand.
Andy: I‘m
joking! Come on, let‘s go!

是，我非常喜欢。我的意思是，乔跟我相处得挺好的。虽然
有时我
快被他搞疯了，
因为他是我的老板，
而且我又希望能
多赚点钱，
但
…
我认为我
的工作是十分有趣的，
因为我能够
看到伦敦正在发生的事情。<

再说，
我不愿意自己处在商业中
无意义的
竞争里。
珍妮特：你说的商业中无意义的竞争是什么意思？
安
迪：
<
/p>
你知道，
日复一日地做着同样的事情并且不做任何有创意的
事或拥有任何可以享受生活的时间。这是我最不想做的事
情。
珍妮特：那你介意告诉我你具体都做些什么吗？
安
迪：
<
/p>
基本上，除了新的俱乐部、最新的戏剧和电影，还有美术馆
和博物
馆里的展览，
你知道，
我们会关注伦敦乐坛的新动向。
然后，
我们去采访音乐家或演员或任何与此事件有关的人并
将此采访的内容录下来。
珍妮特：好的，那接下来呢？
安
迪：
<
/p>
我们编辑这些采访然后将它们全部都上传到网站上。
我们一
周就取得了二十万个网路点击数。
我们是伦敦最大的数据站

安
迪：

他现在应该在去国家剧院的路上。
他要去给一位新戏剧的导
演做个采访。但我有点儿希望他在途中迷路。然后，他将会
发现伦敦是
多么棒的一个地方。
珍妮特：我不明白。
安
迪：
我是在开玩笑！快点，我们走吧！

Happiness
is
not
what
most
students
have
in
mind
when
they
think
of school. Yet a school in Germany has developed a
novel way to
raise the morale of its
students, by teaching happiness in classes.
Students
at
Heidelberg
‘
s Willy Hellpach
School of Economics are learning how to
achieve
happiness
as
an
official
subject,
alongside
mathematics
and
languages.
This
is
the
first
school
in
Germany
to
develop
a
happiness
course, intended
for 17- to 19-year-olds preparing for university
entrance
exams.
Ernst
Fritz-Schubert,
the
school
‘
s
principal,
is
on
a
mission
to
change things.
Ernst Fritz-
Schubert: It was my
idea-I
‘
ve been at this
school for
word
文档
可自由复制编辑
31 years, and I feel that school and
happiness have to be reunited. These
are
two
terms
which
are
not
considered
together,
because
one
does
not
connect
school
with happiness.
In
some
cases
school
comes
behind
the
dentists
on
the
popularity
scale
and
we
should
try
to
push
schools
‘
popularity a bit.
It has
been proved by science that a happy student can
learn more
than an unhappy one, Unhappy
students can concentrate for a while but
do not use all their potential. The
happiness classes are intended to help
students fulfill their potential. They
will help the students live happy and
prosperous lives.
The
classes aim to help students in achieving a
positive state of
mind, by using all
their own resources and boosting their self-
esteem. In
addition,
they
hope
classes
will
increase
self-awareness
and
physical
comfort.
Happiness
classes
are
also
intended
to
make
students
more
aware
about
their
environment
and
society
as
a
whole.
During
classes
students
are
encouraged
to
express
themselves
and
observe
their
peers
‘
behavior.
The
classes
are
taught
by
Bjoern
Bonn,
an
actor
and
visiting
lecturer.
Bjoern
Bonn:
One
of
the
exercises
I
do
is
to
have
one
of
the
students
walk
across
the
classroom,
with
the
others
copying
his
walk.
Through
this
exercise,
I
hope
they
learn
something
about
themselves.
Why do I move
like this? How do others see my way of walking? I
hope

that
with
a
higher
body
awareness
they
ideally
–
of
course
it
will
take
time-achieve a higher
self-consciousness which could lead to happiness.
Wolfgang
Lang:
We
give
these
classes
to
students
to
help
them
find
happiness.
Now
the
question
is:
How
do
I
define
happiness?
Happiness
is
for
example
a
strengthening
of
the
personality.
We
are
providing
helpful
suggestions
to
make
stronger
people.
People
that
ask
“
Who am I as a
person? Am I really happy?
‖
Pascal Gemble: It takes time and
everybody has to find happiness
for
themselves. You cannot go into a coaching lesson
and say teach me
happiness.
One
can
only
get
indications
from
teachers
or
the
visiting
lecturers. There are also happiness
scientists, if we could talk to one of
those, I am sure he would have some
hints.
Yosma
Pinar
Cetinkaya:
You
would
think
that
the
teachers
are
writing
definitions
on
the
board.
Not
true.
Those
who
want
happiness
have to find it for themselves, you
cannot really learn that.
So what does it take to be happy and
can you learn it at school?
当学生想起学校，快乐不是多数人想到的。目前，德国一所学校

Ernst Fritz-

学校的校长，肩负着变革的使命。
Ernst Fritz-Schubert
：
“这是我的想法
—
我已经在
这所学校呆了
31
年，
我认为学校和快
乐必须被重组，
这是不被认为该在一起的两部分，
因为学生不把
学校与快乐联系起来。
在某些情况下，
学校在受欢迎程
度上落后于牙医，我们应该努力推动学校的受欢迎度。
科学已经证明一个快乐的学生能比一个不快乐的学生学到更<

多。
不快乐的学生能在一段时间内集中注意力，
< br>但不能发挥他们所有
的潜力，
这些快乐课程致力于帮助学
生发挥他们的潜能，
能帮学生生
活在快乐繁荣的生活中。
‖
这种课程旨在帮助学生们通过用他们自己
的特长和激励他们的自
尊来达到思想的积极状态。
另外，
他们希望课程会增加自觉意识和身
体素质，
快
乐课程还致力于让学生意识到环境与社会是作为一个整体
存在。
课堂期间学生被鼓励表达自我和关注同伴的行为，
课程由演员
和
客座讲师
Bjoern

讲授。
Bjoern Bonn
：
“我做的其
中一个练习是让学生走过教室，其他学
生模仿他的步伐。
通过这

我希望他们从自己身上学得一些东
西

我希望
伴随着更高的身体意识他们原则上

当然这需要时间
——
实现更
高的抵达快乐的自我意识。
”
Wolfgang Lang
：
“我们
为学生们开设这些课程来帮助他们找寻快
乐，现在问题是：我该如何给快乐下定义？比如
快乐是个性的加强。
我们正提供有帮助的建议来使学生更强健，
学生会问：
我是一个怎样

的人？我真的高兴吗？”
Pascal
Gembe
：
“这需要花时间，每个人必须为自己找寻快乐，
你不可能去一个训练课说：
‘教给我快乐’
。
一个学生只能从教师或客
座讲师那得到暗示，
另外也有
研究快乐的科学家，
如果我们能与他们
之一交流，我确信他能给
一些暗示。
”
Yosma Pinar Cetinkaya
：
“你会认为老师在黑板上写下快乐的定
义，那不正
确。
哪些想得到快乐的学生必须为他们自己寻找，你不能
真正通
过学习得到。
”
既然如此，得到快乐的代价是什么？你能在学校学到它吗？

Interviewer:
Can
you
tell

how
do

have

as

things have had a major influence
on
you?

:
Well, let
me
think
…
I
suppose going
to
university
had
a
big impact on my life. It
made me much more open-minded.
I met so
many different types of people there with weird
and
wonderful ideas and it changed the
way I see the world. I
‘

much
more
tolerant
now

made

more

forming your character?
Speaker 1:
I
guess that
‘
d have to be my
grandfather. I was very close to
him,
and
he
taught
me
to
stand
up
for
my
beliefs.
He
was
always telling me about
this
…
Interviewer: So what people or events
have had an impact on your life?
Speaker 2:
I
think that traveling my gap year made me grow up
and see
both the beauty of the world
and, well
…
just the
generosity of
ordinary people. I
traveled a lot around Asia and you know, I
found
that
in
some
of
the poorest
countries,
like
Cambodia
and
Laos,
people
share
whatever
little
they
have,
and
they
possess
a
real
joy
for
life.
It
‘
s
probably
made
me
a
less
selfish
person.
Interviewer:
Interesting
…
so
you
would
recommend
that
young
people
take
a gap year to discover themselves and the world?

you

opportunity

about

world beyond the one you grew up in and
I found it really

Could
you
tell
me
what
things
in
your
life
have
had
the
greatest influence in forming your
personality?
Speaker 3:
Well
…
a couple of years ago I
was on a reality TV show where
a group
of young people all lived in a house together.
Each
week some one was voted off by the
audience. I got down to
the final
three! I suppose being on the show and seeing how
word
文档

the
other
contestants
behaved
made
me
realize
how
selfish
and
spiteful some people can be just to get what they
want. I
also realized
it
‘
s best to just be
yourself in life. If you pretend
to
be
someone
different
people
will
eventually
see
through
the
lies.
Interviewer:
Right
…
And
how
did
you
feel
when
you
were
eventually
voted off?
Speaker
3:
Relieved,
to
be
honest
with
you.
But
you
know,
a
slight
regret that I
didn
‘
t win because I kind
of
…
Interviewer:
So you can tell me, what
one thing do you think that has
had the
biggest impact on your life?
Speaker
4:
Hmm,
that
‘
s
a
difficult
question.
But
I
think
helping
victims of the tsunami in 2004 had a
very great impact on me.
I

m
half
Thai

I

just
arrived
in
Thailand
for
a

When
I
heard the
news
I
knew
I
had to
help-you couldn

not. I ended up acting as an interpreter for

group
of
volunteer
doctors.
It
was
an
incredibly
difficult
time
but
you
know,
even
in
the
middle
of
such
a
horrific
tragedy there is still a huge amount of

kindness.

Passage two
Tony: Talking to
us today in our Life Choices series is Joan
Robinson, an
academic counselor at
Manchester University. She gives advice to
school students on choosing the right
subject to study at university.
Joan,
welcome to the show.
Joan:
Thanks Tony.
Tony: So Joan, what do our
listeners need to think about when choosing a
course? It‘s a huge, potentially
life
-chang
ing decision,
isn‘t it?
Joan:
Yes.
I
generally
give
students
advice
in
two
areas.
Firstly,
know
yourself, and secondly,
think to the future.
Tony: When you say
―know yourself‖ what do you mean?
Joan:
Basically,
I
mean
evaluate
your
own
personal
strengths
and
weaknesses, your personality traits and
the things you like.
Tony: I see…So how
can our listeners do this?
Joan: Well, start by asking yourself
questions to help reflect on your life
so
far.
For
example,
what
subjects
are
you
good
at?
Are
you
an
organized
and
self-disciplined
person?
Are
you
confident
and
outgoing?
Do
you
like
working
with
others
in
a
team
or
do
you
prefer
working
alone?
These
kinds
of
questions
will
help
you
discover
more about yourself.
Tony:
Sounds like good advice. How about your second
point regarding
the future?
word
文档
可自由复制编辑
Joan: Well, your choice of major
subject is likely to have a significant
impact on your future career so it‘s
important to look into this
carefully.
I recommend you check not only which academic
subjects will help you get into a
particular area of work, but also
look
carefully at what universities offer. Each
university has its
strengths so try to
choose one that is the best in your chosen field.
Find out what links the department has
to related industries and
leading
companies in it.
Tony: Good point. Now
I‘d like to take some calls from our listeners.
First up we have James on the line. Hi,
James! How can we help?
James: Hi. I‘m
interested in career in IT and I‘d like to ask
Joan whether
she thinks it‘s better to
go to a h
ighly respected university,
like
Oxford, or to study somewhere that
has more of a vocational focus?
Joan:
Well, James, you know it really depends on what
you expect to get
out of a university
and how you see your future. Basically a
handful of the brightest graduates are
picked from the top
universities around
the world to join the leading IT companies. So
I‘d say if you‘re a
high
-flyer then this is the route that
might be for
you. But if you are
looking for a more mainstream career then you
should consider a course that helps you
acquire practical,
transferable skills
that you can use in the workplace…and look at
which universities have the best levels
of graduate recruitment for

the kind of job you are aiming for.

大学里如何去选择正确的
学科的建议。乔恩

那么乔恩，
我们的听众在选择课程时需要考虑些什
么？这是一
个重大的，可能改变生活的选择，对吗？
Joan
：是的。我一般给学生们两个方面的建议。第一，要了解自己；
第二，要对未来持有看法。
Tony
：你说的“了解自己”

Joan
：基本上，我的意思是要评价自己的优缺点、性
格特征和兴趣。

采访人：噢，太令人伤心了！那么你们离开学校那天怎么样？是什么
情况？
伊娃：
我
当时百感交集。
我记得我走在回家路上时有一种惊人的自由
感。
你知道的，再也没有规矩，再也没有专横的老师们。但我
还是非常难过，
因为我也有过非常开心的时刻，
我在一个互相

伙伴到外面去庆祝，并且玩得很开心！

Janet: Really?
What did you do?

I

I worked on Pygmalion by George Bernard
Shaw
Janet: If I remember correctly. That

Toby: Yes,
It

s a kind of cabaret, with
a series of variety acts set in a kind
of circus, but
it

s very contemporary,
extremely well produced and
huge fun..
Andy: Tell me more about the acts.
Toby:
Well,
there

a

swallower

La

ue
和我们近期在伦敦西区看的表演略微有点不同，能
就这一点
和我们谈谈吗？
Toby:
好的，
这算是一种余兴节目
,
在某种马戏表演中穿插一系列演出
,
但这些演出都是
非常有时代性的，制作精良，而且很有趣。
.
Andy:
能更多地谈谈那些演出吗？
Toby:
好的，其中有杂耍演员在高空钢丝上的表演、有木
偶表演、吞
剑表演、
魔术表演、
还有个
柔韧性很好的人从一个网球拍中成

Andy:
听起来确实很特别。
Toby:

Outside View
The
Mona
Lisa
, the
most
famous
painting
in
the
world,
was trully
revolutionary
even
in
its
time.
While
he
was
painting
the
Mona
Lisa
,
Leonardo da
Vinci broke all the rules, even his own. In spite
of the fact
that
Leonardo
and
other
aritists
believed
that
women
should
only
be
portrayed
with
eyes
gazing
slightly
down.
Leonodo
painted
the
Mona
Lisa
looking
directly
at
the
viewer.
The
positon
of
her
body
is
another
innovation. While her face looks
straight ahead, her body is slight turned,
word

a
pose
that
creates
a
sense
of
movement
and
tension.
In
another
break
from tradition, the Mona Lisa is not
wearing any jewellery or adorments.
Finally,
backgrounds
in
portraits
usually
indicated
a
real
place
but
the
landscape
in Leonardo
‘
s portrait seems
almost imaginary.
A:One of the things I
like to do is, um, think about her face and why,
what is she trying, why, what is she
trying to say with her face and I used
to think that her face told more than
one story. For instance, if I covered
up
one
side
of
her
face,
it
seemed
like
she
might
be
a
little
sad
or
resevered, almost
secretive.
S:Her eyes are,
they
‘
re kind of looking at
us or around us, through
us
perhaps.
I
think
with
that
painting
she
is
the
viewer
and
we
are
the
subject in a way. And she has this look
that she knows somehting that we
don
‘
t know.
A:And then when I coverd up
that side and looked at the other side,
she seemed happier, um, more satisfied.
And togher, it created sort of the
mystery about her that, um, made
interpreting her face very enigmatic.
S:There
‘
s
speculation
that
the
Mona
Lisa
is
a
self-
portrait
of
Leonardo and I,
I believe that it is, there, there, the
features do line up
between
the
Mona Lisa
and sketches
of Leonardo.
Scott
McMahon
and
Anne
Pfaff
are
both
portrait
artists.
They
believe that portraits
can tell a story and make people think, just as
the
Mona Lisa has done for so many
years.

A:When I was young, um, I was
always interested in, um, reading
books
about
people
and,
and
the
dynamics,
different
kinds
of
relationships they had
and so when I became a painter it was natural for
me
to
be
interested
in
painting
poeple
and
looking
for
similar
kinds
of
stories to tell about them that you
might read in a book.
S:Uh,
most
of
my
work
consists
of
photographic
self-
portraiture.
Um,
I
‘
m
interested
in
using
myself
as
th
subject,
um,
not
only
as
the
creator of the image but
as the, the character, or the performer of, of the
images.
So in my
portraits I
‘
m trying to
capture, um, a deeper essence of a
person, um, more or less.
This work here is done with a pinhole
camera, which requires a very
long
exposure so, with a portrait you can get this
feeling of time passed.
It
‘
s not a,
it
‘
s not an instant, per se,
it could be five minutes of exposure.
A:So
this
is
another
project
I
‘
m
working
on.
I
‘
m
almost
finished
with it but I still need to work on the
reflections in the water, um, and the
face of the boy before
it
‘
s finished.
S:I often work with multiples and, you
know, using a mirror or the
same
image
twice
and
what
I
wanted
to
do
was
link
the
two
portraits
together with the
string. It
‘
s kind of the
string of thought or this idea of
remembering or the resilience of
memory.
A:I
don
‘
t just paint from
photographs. I try to make a work of art.

Um, I try to make a painting that goes
beyond a mere photographic image.
I
try
to
capture
something
about
the
soul
of
the,
or
the
essence
of
this
person.
S:This
piece
here
is,
uh,
it
‘
s
called
The
Measure
of
Decay
and
behind the piece there
are portraits, again, of me I have this clay
covering
on that has cracked and so
it
‘
s,
it
‘
s kind of like the
process of decay. So as
each portrait
goes around you can, you can see the image in a
different
focus. I love painting
portraits.
A:I love
painting but portraits are very special because
they
‘
re about
people.
S:I
‘
m fascinated
by portraiture in general, and the human body and
how
the
image
lives
over
time.
I
like
to
capture
what
is
unique
and
special about an individual in paint. <

蒙娜丽莎，
作为世界上做最著名的画，
在
当时的时代是完完全全
颠覆性的。列奥纳多·达·芬奇在创作这幅画的时候突破了一切的
规

在达芬奇创作的这幅画中，尽管他
其他广
大艺术家都认在画像中妇女只能以眼睛微向下看的姿态出现，
可是他
仍然将蒙娜丽莎画为直视着看画者。
她的身体则是另
外一个突破。
当
她的脸是对着正前方的时候，
< br>她的身体略微转过一个角度，
这个姿势
将一种动感和张力
结合到了一起。
另外一个突破传统的就是蒙娜丽莎
没有佩戴任何
的珠宝或者是装饰品。

的。
安普法夫：我喜欢做的一件事情
是，恩，思考她的脸还有为什么
她是这样的姿态，
她想通过她的
脸传达什么，
我曾认为她的脸告诉我
们不止一个故事。比如说，
如果我遮起她的脸的一边儿，她看起来会
有些悲伤或者说是沉默
寡言的，几乎是遮遮掩掩的。
斯科特麦克马洪：
她的眼睛是那种像看着我们，
又像看着我们周
围，或
许还是穿过了我们。在一定程度上，我想在这幅画中，她是旁
观者，
而我们却成了画的主题。
她的这种表情仿佛表示出她知道某些
我们不知道的事情。
安普法夫：
而
后当我遮起她的另一边脸看刚才一边的时候，
她看
起来快乐一些
，恩，或者说更满足的。整体一起看的时候，它又有一
种关于她的神秘感，恩，让理解她
的脸变的难以捉摸。
斯科特麦克马洪：
有一种猜测说蒙娜丽莎这幅画是达芬奇的自画
像，而我认为，这些特点是集合了蒙娜丽
莎还有达芬奇的素描。
斯科特麦克马洪和安普法夫都是肖像画
艺术家。
他们认为肖像画
可以讲述一个故事而且令人深思，
就像多年前蒙娜丽莎这幅画的作用
一样。
安普法夫：当我年轻的时候，恩，我喜欢，恩，读关于人的书，
还有关于人的相互关系的，
他们之间各种各样的关系，
所以当我
成为
一个画家的时候，
很自然地我会去关注画人还有在书中找寻
相似的故
事去讲述它们。
斯科特麦克
马洪：恩，我的大部分工作由摄影自画像组成。恩，

我很乐意将自己作为主题，恩，不仅仅是画的创作者，而且是
画的主
角或者是表演者。所以在我的肖像画作品中，我试图去抓住，恩，或
多或少一个人的更深层的本质。
这儿的这个工作需要借助针孔摄像机
完成，
它需要很长的曝光时间，
所以你可以在这
个肖像画的过程中感
受到时间的流逝。它并不是，并不是一个瞬间的，它本身可以是五分
钟的曝光时间。
安普法夫：这是我正
在进行的另一个作品。我几乎快要完成了，
可是在真正完成之前仍然有一些工作，比如说
水的反射，恩，还有这
男孩儿的脸。
斯科特麦克马洪：你知道的，我工作的时候经常和倍数打交道，
还有用镜子或者相同的东
西两次，
我所想要做的是将两幅肖像用一根
线联系起来。那是一
种思想的线，或者说是记忆，还有记忆的重现。
安普法夫：<
/p>
我不仅仅是按照图片作画。
我试图做关于艺术的工作。
恩，
我试着画一种超越了仅仅是图片的画。
我试着
捕捉一些关于人的
灵魂或者是关于人的本质的东西。
斯科特麦克马洪：这里的东西，恩，叫做衰退的测量，在这张陶
土的后面
是一些肖像，再一次，我将陶土中间弄碎，所以它是，它像
是一种衰退的过程。所以，当
每一幅肖像转动的时候，你可以，你可
以在不同的焦点上看这些画。
安普法夫：
我喜爱画肖像画。
我
喜欢画画但是肖像画是非常特殊

Listening in conversation 1
Lily:
So what
was the highlight of your trip to (South)Korea?
Hugh:
Well that's…let me
see...it's g
ot to be going to see
Nanta.
Lily

What on earth is Nanta?
Hugh
：
It's this
amazing live show-part theater-part dance-part
music.
Lily:
Sounds really interesting. But
why‘
s it so brilliant?
Hugh:
I
think
it's
the
energy
of
the
performers.
Also
it
has
a
unique
concept.
It's a mixture of traditional Korean music,
percussion and
drums, into a western
style performance
Lily:
I've never heard of it. Has it ever
been performed in the West?
Hugh: Yeah,
it's been a sell-out. They've toured in over 30
countries since
the show began in 's a
non-verbal performance so there are
no
language
barriers.
That's
what's
made
it
an
international
success.
Lily:
What else
makes it so special then?
Hugh:
Well...the other thing is that all the action
takes place in the kitchen.
You
see
these
four
chefs
preparing
the
food
for
a
wedding
reception.
The
performers
use
knives,
dustbin
lids
and
various
other
kitchen
utensils
to
create

literally flies everywhere! It's
hilarious.
Lily:
That
sounds
quite
funny
I
must
admit.
Is
there
an
actual
story
though?
Hugh: Oh yes, there
is a story. The four chefs have to prepare the
meal by
6
o'clock
and
they
also
have
to
give
the
manager's
nephew
cooking
lessons
too,
which
adds
to

fun.
There‘
s
loads
of
audience
participation
and
despite
there
being
no
language
involved you get completely engrossed.
It's really quite wacky!
Lily:
And what about the
audience? I suppose they start throwing food
around…
?
Hugh:
Not
quite!
But
they
are
totally
involved
in
what's
going
on-
everyone loves it. It's a really great family
show. In fact it's one
of the best
shows I've ever seen. Jim, my friend, says he
takes all
his visitors. He's seen it
about eight times and still loves it.
Lily:
I bet it's
popular with tourists then.
Hugh:
Well
apparently
over
a
million
foreign
tourists
in
(South)Korea
have seen the show and it's had a run
on Broadway too. It first got
popular
after they appeared at the Edinburgh Festival. Now
they

Asia
where

By the way what does

mean?

额。

Nanta
这件事吧。
丽莉：到底什么是
Nanta?
休：
他是
个很精彩的舞台剧，应该说是戏剧，舞蹈以及音乐的大综
合吧。
丽莉：那听起来挺有意思啊。不过它为什么那么精彩？
休：
我想
应该是因为演员们的活力吧。
还有就是这个舞台剧本身包
含一个
很独特的概念。
它是一种将传统朝鲜音乐，
打击乐器和
鼓融合进西方风格的表演
丽莉：我从来没有听说过她，这个节目在西方国家上映过么？
休：
当然
，而且场场爆满。自
1997
年这个节目正式开始表演以来，<
/p>
Nanta
的表演团队已经游遍了三十多个国家。
Nanta
是一个非
语言类的表演，因此演员与观众之
间不存在语言交流的障碍，
而这恰恰就是让它在全球范围内取得成功的原因。
丽莉：它还有什么让它变得如此特别的亮点？
休：
额。
。
。说道其他的特点的话，应该就是表演中所有的事情都发
生在厨房。你会看到
4
个主厨在厨房中为准
备婚宴餐点而忙
碌。
演员们用刀具，
垃
圾箱的盖子以及其他各式各样的厨具来

制造出令人着迷的音效。
舞台上的各种食物简直就是在飞来飞
去，这很有意思的。
丽莉：我承认，
这听起来很有趣。但是表演内容中有没有一个完整的
故事？
休：
有啊，那四个主厨必须在
6
点之前准备好婚宴晚餐
，同时又要
给经理的侄子上烹饪课，
这些元素都使整部节目充满
笑点。
节
目中还包含大量观众参与互动的环节，
尽管节目与语言毫不相
关，但每个人都全神贯注于其中。这真的有点古怪，不是
么？
丽莉：来谈一谈观众们的反应吧，我猜他们一定开始四处
仍食物了
吧？
休：
并非
完全如此。但他们确实全都沉浸在整部节目中，毕竟每个
观众都喜爱它。这是一部非常适
合家庭成员一起观看的表演。
说实话，
他是我所看过的节目中最
好的节目之一。
我的一个朋
友
Jim<
/p>
说，他会带他所有的客户来看这节目。他已经看过约
8
次了，却仍不厌烦。
丽莉：我打赌它肯定很受旅客们的喜爱
休：
恩。
。
。显然，成百上千到韩国旅游的游客都看过这部节目，而
且
nanta
也在百老汇上演过。当初，<

Nanta
在爱丁堡的庆典上
开始受到世
人的瞩目。而现在，

是什么意思？

Kathy Richards is a specialist art tour guide.
Kathy-can you
tell us what trends
you've noticed in recent years?
Kathy:
Well,
one
of

biggest
phenomena
I've
noticed
is
a

a
growing
interest

modern art in general.
Interviewer: What do you think the
reason is for that?
Kathy:
Well,
there
are
several
reasons,
I
think.
The
most
important
ones
are
firstly,
that
some
new
contemporary
art
galleries
have opened which
have had a lot of publicity, and secondly
the
younger
generation
feel
more
comfortable
with
modern
art
so
the

of

is
changing.
Finally,
the
new

of

have
become
