較長的英語情景對話1
Todd: So, Greg, you have a new book out, and you're book has lots of controversial topics,and one of the topics is organ donation. So first can you explain what organ donation is?
托德：格雷格，你出了本新書，這本書涉及了很多爭議話題，其中一個就是器官捐贈。首先，請你解釋一下什么是器官捐贈?
Greg: Sure. Organ donation is when a person living or dead allows his or her organs to beused in another person.
格雷格：好的。器官捐贈是指活人或死人將器官捐贈給另一個人的行為。
Todd: So for example like you donate a liver, or kidney or something like that.
托德：舉例來說，就是捐贈肝、腎等器官的行為。
Greg: That's right.
格雷格：沒錯。
Todd: And usually they have to get it... the person who dies, they have to get it soon.
托德：實際上，他們要……人死了之后，他們要立即取出捐贈的器官。
Greg: Yes, that 100% right.
格雷格：對，完全正確。
Todd: So is this something that's common in most countries?
托德：這是大多數(shù)國家的通常做法嗎?
Greg: Well, actually some countries do not allow organ and tissue donation, or they allow onlysome organs, some tissues and not allow others.
格雷格：實際上有些國家不允許器官捐贈和組織捐贈，或者只允許一些器官和組織的捐贈，其他的不允許。
Todd: You know, your book is about controversial topics. What is controversial about organdonation?
托德：你的書里涉及了很多爭議話題。那器官捐贈有什么爭議?
Greg: Oh, there's a lot of controversial aspects to organ donation. Again, as I mentionedthere are differences in every country. Some countries do not allow organ donation. Someallow some organs and won't others and there are also cases where say maybe a thousandpeople need a kidney but there's only fifty kidneys. Who is gonna get it? Should the kidney goto the sickest person but who might die? Should it go to the oldest person? Should it go to theyoungest person? Should it go to the richest person? How do you decide? What's a fair way todecide?
格雷格：器官捐贈有很多爭議。就像我剛才提到的，每個國家對器官捐贈有不同的規(guī)定。一些國家不允許器官捐贈。還有些國家只允許特定器官的捐贈，不允許其他器官的捐贈，也許需要腎移植的人有1000人，可是只有50個腎臟可以移植。那誰能進行手術?這些腎臟是要移植給那些生病最嚴重、可能會死亡的人?還是要移植給最年長的人?還是給最年輕的人?或是給最富有的人?要怎么決定?怎么公平地做決定?
Todd: Now, also I think in your book you were talking about medical tourism. Can you explainwhat that is?
托德：我想你的書中還提到了醫(yī)療旅游。你能解釋一下嗎?
Greg: Medical tourism is when people go to a country for the purpose of medical treatmentwhich they can't get in their country either cause the treatment is not allowed or it's tooexpensive. You know, relating back to the question of controversy, there are lot of countries inthe world which are very poor, and people are willing to sell their organs actually, so you haverich Arabs, rich Americans, rich Japanese, rich British people, people from any rich country,can't get an organ in their own country, and they'll go to a poor country to buy organs frompoor people. Is that right? In some places it's illegal. There are also laws in many countriesthat say someone must, before they die, give permission for the body parts to be used, butthose body parts are sometimes taken from people after their death without permission.
格雷格：醫(yī)療旅游是人們以醫(yī)療為目的前往另一個國家的行為，因為他們在本國無法接受治療，或是治療方法在本國不被允許，或是醫(yī)療費用太高。我們再回到剛才的爭議問題上，世界上有許多國家非常貧窮，這些國家的人想賣器官掙錢，而有錢的阿拉伯人、美國人、日本人、英國人，那些有錢國家的人在自己的國家無法得到捐贈的器官，他們就會去貧窮的國家，從窮人那里買器官。這種做法對嗎?在有些地方這種做法是非法的。許多國家的法律明確規(guī)定，活人捐贈器官必須得到許可，而有時死人捐贈身體器官是未經許可的。
Todd: Yeah, that's pretty controversial stuff. That's pretty deep.
托德：對，這是備受爭議的問題。是非常嚴肅的問題。
Greg: Yeah.
格雷格：對。

Greg: Hi, Todd.
格雷格：你好，托德。
Todd: Hey, Greg.
托德：嗨，格雷格。
Greg: Hey, thanks a lot for interviewing me and letting, I don't know, the world know about mybook.
格雷格：嘿，非常謝謝你采訪我，讓世界了解我的書。
Todd: No, problem. It's a good book.
托德：不客氣。這是本好書。
Greg: Yeah, I've noticed you don't have any topics like these on your web site. Why not?
格雷格：嗯，我注意到，你的網(wǎng)站上沒有這種話題。這是為什么?
Todd: Right. I don't have too many controversial topics. There's actually technical reasons.One is it just takes too long for people to talk about a controversial topic, so for example ifyou really want to get into controversy, you know, it leads to long conversation and peopleexpressing their view and arguing and the way that the audio is set up on elllo, it's kind ofshort. I try to keep it under three minutes, so that's one reason. But actually the main reasonis because, you know, when people come in, I don't know them a lot of the times I don't knowthe speakers very well and so they're not really comfortable arguing with me or arguing withsomebody else they don't know about something that's controversial, so we tend to not dothat.
托德：對。我們網(wǎng)站上沒有太多爭議話題。這其實是技術原因。其中一個原因是，討論爭議話題需要很長時間，如果要討論爭議問題，那就會進行很長時間的對話，人們要表達他們的觀點和主張，可是ello網(wǎng)站上的音頻都很短。我盡量將每期節(jié)目的時長控制在3分鐘以內，這是其中一個原因。不過主要原因是，大多數(shù)時候我不認識錄制節(jié)目的嘉賓，我不太了解他們，所以如果他們和我或是其他他們不認識的嘉賓就爭議話題進行辯論的話，他們可能會感覺不舒服，所以我們盡量不這么做。
Greg: OK, alright, it's something you might want to think about. I mean, I think there are lotof people in the world who are really interested in controversial topics.
格雷格：好，這可能是你要思考的事情。我的意思是，世界上有很多人對爭議話題感興趣。
Todd: Well, I think there are some, like with you we talked about some like income disparityand medical issues, and I'm comfortable talking about that but I am not comfortable talkingabout let's say homosexuality, religious beliefs, abortion, politics. Things like that I just don'tfeel comfortable doing.
托德：我和你談論了收入差距和醫(yī)療問題，我覺得談論這種話題還是很自在的，可是我不想談論同性戀問題、宗教信仰、墮胎、政治問題。談話這些話題我會感覺不自在。
Greg: OK, it's your site: your right to do whatever you want, but I just think maybe ... maybesome of your listeners would appreciate that and maybe you could have ... my suggestion isthat you have a little one page, controversial page, or something. Just, you know, try it out,and if you get a lot of good reaction, you might want to continue and if it doesn't work outstop it.
格雷格：好，這是你的網(wǎng)站，你有權利做你想做的事，不過我認為也許……也許一些聽眾會希望你……我的建議是，增設一個爭議問題網(wǎng)頁。你可以試試，如果良好的反應很多的話，你可以繼續(xù)做下去，如果反應不好，那就可以關掉這個網(wǎng)頁。
Todd: Well, actually, I'll give you an example of one I did recently. I had a woman come in,Stella, she did a great job on the videos, and one of her videos was about an usual sport in yourcountry and hers was on cock fighting, and she explained cock fighting, or hen fighting, inKenya, and right off the bat I knew that was going to be a problem because that's illegal insome countries and some people — animal activists — would be offended, but on the otherhand, it's her culture and I don't feel comfortable saying — you know — what's right or what'swrong about someone else's culture so I just ended up not putting it on just because I didn'twant to have to take a side. You know, I think you can kind of see the problem, that sometimesyou can put stuff up and it's so easy to alienate maybe a small portion of your audience and Ijust don't want to do that. You know, I don't have a side about the issue but I just don't wantto alienate people. I don't want people on one side of an issue to feel upset so I just play itsafe, and I don't talk about it.
托德：我給你講一個例子吧，是我最近錄的一期節(jié)目。那期節(jié)目請的是一個女嘉賓史黛拉，她做了很多很棒的視頻，其中一個視頻是她們國家的常見運動，她講的是斗雞，她在視頻里解釋了肯尼亞的斗雞運動，我馬上就意識到這個話題可能有問題，因為這項運動在一些國家是非法的，動物保護者可能會感到很生氣，不過另一方面，這是她的文化，我不太好去評價其他人的文化是對還是錯，所以最后我沒有把這期節(jié)目放在網(wǎng)站上，因為我不想偏袒哪一方。你看，像這樣的問題很容易會使一小部分聽眾疏遠網(wǎng)站，我不想這樣。我在這個問題上不支持任何一個觀點，我只是不想讓聽眾疏遠我的網(wǎng)站。我不想讓在這個問題上持某個觀點的聽眾感覺苦惱，所以我要謹慎行事，不去討論這個問題。
Greg: OK, well, you seem to have a lot of listeners who are very happy so don't worry aboutchanging it.
格雷格：好，看起來你的很多聽眾都很開心，不要擔心改變。
Todd: I hope so. I hope so.
托德：希望如此，希望如此。
