　　想要突破雅思口語，掌握技巧很關鍵，雅思給大家?guī)淼氖茄潘伎谡Z備考素材：讓你笑的電視節(jié)目。希望以下內(nèi)容能夠為同學們的雅思備考提供幫助。

　　Would you watch a live broadcast of a seven-hour train trip? How about a weeklong cruise ship or hours of a fire burning in a fireplace? These might seem like unlikely candidates for primetime programming, especially in today's landscape of viral videos and on-demand viewing, but they're part of a hit phenomenon in Norway known as "slow TV."

　　你會看7小時火車旅行的直播節(jié)目嗎?那為期一周的游輪之旅或木柴在壁爐里燃燒好幾個小時的直播呢?在如今熱門視頻和自主觀影的大環(huán)境之下，這類節(jié)目似乎都不可能放到黃金時段播出。但在挪威，這類叫做“慢電視”的節(jié)目卻火得不得了。

　　Next up for slow TV: an evening of minute-by-minute knitting, Time Magazine reports.

　　根據(jù)《時代》雜志報道，慢電視下一期的節(jié)目內(nèi)容是：直播針織大衣的所有過程。

　　In 2009, public broadcaster NRK aired "Bergensbanen," a program documenting a seven-hour train journey across the country from Oslo to Bergen, in primetime. The show was surprisingly successful, and a new Scandinavian reality TV trend was born.

　　2009年，挪威公共廣播公司在黃金時段播出《卑爾根鐵路》，一檔記載火車穿越挪威從奧斯陸到卑爾根全程7小時的節(jié)目。這檔節(jié)目收視異常成功，從此斯堪的納維亞記錄現(xiàn)實的慢節(jié)奏節(jié)目誕生了。

　　More than 3 million viewers (more than half of Norway's population of 5 million), tuned in for "Hurtigruten: Minutt for Minutt," a five-day live 2011 broadcast of a cruise ship traveling up the Norwegian west coast, according to Time.

　　《時代》雜志稱，有超過300萬的觀眾(挪威500萬總人口的一半還多)收看《海達路德：分分秒秒》，這檔挪威2011年新出的慢節(jié)目，直播一艘游輪在挪威西海岸航行五天的所有記錄。

　　According to the Wall Street Journal, NRK is also considering a 24-hour live feed of construction workers building a digital clock out of wood.

　　據(jù)《華爾街日報》報道，挪威廣播公司正策劃一檔24小時的直播慢節(jié)目，記錄建筑工人如何使用木頭制作數(shù)字時鐘。

　　It seems like Norwegian television executives are trying to come up with the most boring ideas possible, so why are they breaking ratings records?

　　看起來挪威電視節(jié)目的主管在想盡辦法把節(jié)目做得越無聊越好，但為什么這類節(jié)目還屢破收視率記錄?
