英文原文
Conversation 2
對話2
Our school is replacing printed textbooks with e-textbooks next semester. I can't wait.
我們學校下學期要用電子課本代替紙質(zhì)課本了。我等不及了。
Really? What about the cost? Not only buying all those tablets but the software, an electronic infrastructure that goes with it. Not to mention retraining all the teachers and administration staff.
真的嗎?那成本呢?不僅要買平板電腦,還要買軟件,以及配套的電子基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。更不用說還要重新培訓所有的教師和行政人員了。
Sure, the initial expenditure will be high, but much lower afterwards. Besides that, tablet prices continue to drop and are becoming increasingly affordable anyway.
當然,初期的投入會很高,但之后會低很多。而且,平板電腦的價格還在持續(xù)下降,越來越買得起了。
Tablets help students learn up to 80% faster. Not necessarily. Tablets have too many distractions. Students may pay attention to apps, games and websites instead of their teachers.
平板電腦可以幫助學生提高高達80%的學習速度。那可不一定。平板電腦有太多讓人分心的東西了。學生可能會更關(guān)注應(yīng)用程序、游戲和網(wǎng)站,而不是老師。
In fact, research suggests that people who read printed text comprehend more, remember more, and learn 30% more than those who read digital text.
事實上,研究表明,閱讀紙質(zhì)文本的人比閱讀數(shù)字文本的人理解更多,記憶更多,學習效果高出30%。
Yes, but tablets contain many technological features that are not found in printed textbooks. Think about it, students are able to highlight and edit text, write notes, and search for information much more quickly than they can with printed textbooks.
是的,但是平板電腦包含許多紙質(zhì)課本所沒有的技術(shù)功能。想想看,學生能夠在平板電腦上更快地高亮和編輯文本、做筆記和搜索信息,這比紙質(zhì)課本快多了。
And what about all those trees that are cut down to make printed books? Actually, manufacturing tablets is environmentally destructive and dangerous to human health. The health impacts from making one electronic reader are 70 times greater than those from making a single printed book.
那么,為了制作紙質(zhì)書而被砍伐的那些樹呢?實際上,制造平板電腦對環(huán)境的破壞是巨大的,而且對人類健康也有害。制造一個電子閱讀器的健康影響是制造一本紙質(zhì)書的70倍。
A lot of minerals are extracted from the earth to make electronic readers. It does far more damage to the environment.
為了制作電子閱讀器,需要從地球上開采出大量的礦物質(zhì)。這對環(huán)境的破壞要大得多。
Yes, but the software for electronic readers can be updated instantly, without the need for buying a whole lot of new books. That's better for the environment.
是的,但是電子閱讀器的軟件可以即時更新,而不需要購買大量的新書。這對環(huán)境更好。
But the core curriculum doesn't change that much. Printed textbooks that are not brand new still contain the basic, relevant information of core subjects.
但是核心課程的變化并不大。不是全新的紙質(zhì)課本仍然包含核心科目的基本相關(guān)信息。
Well, I'm looking forward to the change. I'll stick with my printed books.
好吧,我很期待這個改變。但我會堅持用我的紙質(zhì)書。
