四、课堂讨论题
1. 老师,讲稿里说彗星 'ejected into the emptiness of space',这个 eject 除了弹射,在日常生活中还能用在啥地方?比如那个 eject button 是干啥的?
2. 文中提到 'stray visitors' 并解释 stray 是 'lost, without a home',那 stray bullet(流弹)和 stray dog(流浪狗)里的 stray 意思一样吗?都是指 '迷路' 吗?
3. 为什么作者说彗星 'smack into something solid' 时要用 smack 这个词?它和普通的 hit 或者 crash 有啥区别?听起来是不是特别响?
4. 文中说 'It is headed for... Manson, on Iowa',这里 'of all places' 到底想表达啥?是强调地点很特别,还是在吐槽这个地点很离谱?
5. 结尾提到太阳系之外 'nothing, and a great deal, depending on how you look at it',这句话是不是在玩文字游戏?怎么理解既 '什么也没有' 又 '有很多东西'?
五、Discussion Questions (English)
1. Teacher, the script says comets are 'ejected into the emptiness of space'. Besides 'ejecting' a projectile, where else do we use 'eject' in daily life? Like, what does that eject button do?
2. The text mentions 'stray visitors' and explains 'stray' as 'lost, without a home'. Does 'stray' in 'stray bullet' (runaway bullet) and 'stray dog' mean the same thing? Is it always about being 'lost'?
3. Why does the author use the word 'smack' when saying a comet 'smack[s] into something solid'? How is it different from 'hit' or 'crash'? Does it imply a loud sound?
4. The script says 'It is headed for... Manson, on Iowa', using the phrase 'of all places'. What does this phrase really convey here? Is it emphasizing the uniqueness of the location or complaining that it's ridiculous?
5. At the end, it says about space beyond the solar system: 'nothing, and a great deal, depending on how you look at it'. Is this a play on words? How can it be both 'nothing' and 'a great deal'?
六、听力 / 讲稿全文
1
00:00:05,490 --> 00:00:08,910
Sometimes they are ejected into the emptiness of
2
00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:10,990
space,never to be seen again.
3
00:00:11,370 --> 00:00:14,650
Ejected 就是弹射出去。
4
00:00:14,930 --> 00:00:19,430
刚才说了有一些彗星脱离了原来的轨道,
5
00:00:19,550 --> 00:00:20,850
那它们会怎么样呢?
6
00:00:21,070 --> 00:00:25,450
有的时候它们会弹射到浩瀚的宇宙空间,
7
00:00:25,590 --> 00:00:28,710
从此就白白再也看不到它们了。
8
00:00:29,050 --> 00:00:31,570
Eject,我们看一下图片吧。
9
00:00:31,570 --> 00:00:34,940
这就是弹射还有
10
00:00:35,160 --> 00:00:40,480
我们看一下这里哪一个按键是 eject 按键呢就是
11
00:00:40,990 --> 00:00:44,870
这个第六个把它按一下这个 eject button if you push
12
00:00:44,870 --> 00:00:50,730
the eject button 然后这里的 DB D 舱就会弹出来 but
13
00:00:53,070 --> 00:00:57,550
sometimes they fall into a long orbit around the sun 有
14
00:00:57,550 --> 00:01:03,470
的时候他们就开始进入绕太阳运行的这个很长的一个
15
00:01:03,470 --> 00:01:08,230
轨道 Ab out three or four of these a year 每
16
00:01:08,550 --> 00:01:14,530
年会有三四颗这样的彗星出现我们把这些彗星叫做长
17
00:01:14,530 --> 00:01:18,230
周期彗星 Long period comets Ab
18
00:01:18,740 --> 00:01:23,120
out three or four of these a yearpass through the inner
19
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:30,460
solar system 它会来到内太阳系被我们观测到 Just
20
00:01:31,260 --> 00:01:32,140
occasionally Originally,
21
00:01:32,380 --> 00:01:36,000
these stray visitors smack into something solid,
22
00:01:36,220 --> 00:01:40,770
like earth.Stray means lost,
23
00:01:41,090 --> 00:01:43,610
without a home,or accidental.
24
00:01:44,390 --> 00:01:45,950
For example,stray bullet,
25
00:01:46,670 --> 00:01:47,010
榴弹。
26
00:01:47,250 --> 00:01:50,290
A stray dog means a homeless dog,
27
00:01:50,770 --> 00:01:51,410
流浪狗。
28
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,200
时不时的会有这样的不速之客,
29
00:01:55,300 --> 00:01:57,120
这些迷失的造访者,
30
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,060
他们会 smack into something solid.smack 是一个相声
31
00:02:01,060 --> 00:02:08,100
词就是怕的一声撞上了比较坚硬的东西 solid 可以是
32
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:12,820
指固体也可以指硬实的比如说地球这
33
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:25,380
就是我们
34
00:02:26,910 --> 00:02:29,670
要跑到这儿来的原因因为
35
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:40,400
我们来看的这个卫星卫星突然突然一头栽到栽向太阳
36
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:46,000
系的中心朝着太阳系的中心一直栽下去 It is headed
37
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,240
for of all places,Mans on,
38
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:57,150
Iowa Head for 表示朝着哪个方向 Of all places 意思是那
39
00:02:57,150 --> 00:03:01,270
么多地方不去偏偏就挑中了 Manson,
40
00:03:01,430 --> 00:03:05,890
Iowa Iowa 是美国的爱荷华州 It
41
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,660
is going to take a long time to get there 不
42
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:15,420
过呢好消息是他不会这么早就到达地球还要好久呢
43
00:03:15,420 --> 00:03:19,780
Three or four million years at least 至少还要三四百万
44
00:03:19,780 --> 00:03:24,100
年 So we'll leave it for now and return to it much later in
45
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:28,320
the story 所以我们现在暂时先把这个话题放下
46
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,800
等到这本书写得差不多了再来讨论这个问题还来得及
47
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:34,020
呢
48
00:04:14,340 --> 00:04:17,920
10 公里的距离,距离 40 公里一秒。
49
00:04:18,180 --> 00:04:22,320
它开始了一辈子的旅行进入我们的太空系统的核心。
50
00:04:25,730 --> 00:04:28,610
我们认识这些巨大的雪球以另一个名字。
51
00:04:31,060 --> 00:04:32,360
这是一颗星球。
52
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,720
当它向太空飞行,它温暖起来,
53
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,740
出现了一阵子的氧气和垃圾。
54
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,340
一个巨大的颜色飞行在它背后。
55
00:04:53,900 --> 00:04:58,940
但这颗星球,并没有触碰太空。
56
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,800
太陽的重力太弱,雷霧會慢慢地滑動。
57
00:05:51,140 --> 00:05:56,000
任何飛機都不可能達到老天爐。
58
00:05:56,220 --> 00:05:58,100
太遠了。
59
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,440
這就是今天的節目的結尾。
60
00:06:01,420 --> 00:06:05,960
有點短,但接下來的會比較長。
61
00:06:06,970 --> 00:06:10,070
這就是你的太陽系統。
62
00:06:10,210 --> 00:06:11,650
那其他東西呢?
63
00:06:12,170 --> 00:06:13,810
太陽系統的外面呢?
64
00:06:13,790 --> 00:06:16,970
Well,nothing,and a great deal,
65
00:06:17,130 --> 00:06:22,990
depending on how you look at it 这句就是下一个部分的
66
00:06:22,990 --> 00:06:29,070
第一句了这里是一个从上起下的两个句子 So,
67
00:06:29,130 --> 00:06:32,730
that's your solar system 也就是我们前面讲的都是
68
00:06:32,730 --> 00:06:37,250
solar system 都是太阳系我们前面讲了五课了 And
69
00:06:37,540 --> 00:06:38,600
what else is out there?
70
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,420
Beyond the solar system 在太阳系以外还有别的什么
71
00:06:43,420 --> 00:06:43,640
呢?
72
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,840
这就说明,文章从这里开始就不再讲太阳系了,
73
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,660
而是讲太阳系之外的东西了。
74
00:06:52,370 --> 00:06:54,390
Well,nothing and a great deal.
75
00:06:54,670 --> 00:06:57,430
可以说太阳系之外什么也没有。
76
00:06:57,790 --> 00:07:01,070
也可以说太阳系之外有很多东西。
77
00:07:01,250 --> 00:07:03,470
Depending on how you look at it.
78
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:08,290
这全看全部都取决于你如何去看待它了。
79
00:07:08,810 --> 00:07:11,410
这就是下一次要解决的问题。
80
00:07:11,410 --> 00:07:11,890
You
81
00:07:14,870 --> 00:07:20,030
can read the rest of the chapter 2 and try to answer this
82
00:07:20,030 --> 00:07:21,310
question Could
83
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,020
these crop circles be created by aliens?
84
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,340
Why and why not?
85
00:07:28,140 --> 00:07:29,140
Crop circles
86
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,900
这些叫麦田圈在很多地方
87
00:07:33,060 --> 00:07:35,500
庄稼地里一觉醒来
88
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:41,840
发现庄稼地里出现了一些奇怪的图形他们把庄稼岛幅
89
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,180
这样形成这样的从高空看就是这种奇特的图形很多人
90
00:07:46,180 --> 00:07:52,940
认为这是 aliens 外星人所为到底是还是不是呢如果是
91
00:07:52,940 --> 00:07:54,040
又
92
00:07:54,260 --> 00:07:58,860
是为什么如果不是又有什么理由 I'm looking forward
93
00:07:58,860 --> 00:08:01,700
to meeting you again and discussing these questions
94
00:08:01,700 --> 00:08:03,920
with you Bye bye everybody
