A:王先生,很高兴您能做客我们的节目。今天我们要聊的是科幻文学。人类有关想象的历史非常悠久,由此涌现出一大批优秀的科幻作品。对全世界的读者而言,他们也许更熟悉欧美作家的作品。那么王先生,您本人就是一名科幻作家,是否能给我们简单介绍一下中国的科幻作品,以及它

问题  
A: Mr. Wang, glad to have you here for our program. Today we’re talking about science fiction literature. Human beings have a long history of imagination, which leads to a great number of excellent science fiction. For readers worldwide, they’re probably more familiar with works written by European and American authors. So Mr. Wang, as a sci-fi author yourself, can you briefly introduce Chinese science fiction and how it’s received in China?
B:在中国,科幻文学起步比较晚,读者也并不多。这和科幻文学的特点有关。它涉及科学知识,有一定的专业性。一般的读者,除非对这一类别特别感兴趣,否则不会去主动关注它。但最近几年,越来越多的高质量汉语科幻小说和电影相继出现,再加上媒体的宣传,国内也开始关注科幻作品了。
A: That’s good news for authors. I’m also curious about one thing. Who’s your favorite sci-fi author, and how did they influence your career path?
B:我喜欢的科幻作家有很多,不同的人有不同的风格。不过对我影响最大的还是阿西莫夫。我小时候读过他的《基地》三部曲,印象非常深刻。就我所知,他在这部系列作品中提出的“机器人三定律”,对很多科幻小说和电影有很大影响。
A: Sorry to interrupt, but I’d like to explain the Three Laws of Robotics in a very simple way to those who are not very familiar with science fiction. They are: first, a robot should not injure a human being or allow a human being to be injured and do nothing about it; second, a robot must obey human beings’ orders unless the orders conflict with the First Law; third, a robot must protect itself as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. So back to our topic. Mr. Wang, in your view, how can sci-fi literature promote the development of human society?
B:科幻文学能够通过对未来的想象和对科技进步的预言,激发人们的创造力,引起人们对科技的兴趣。实际上,有很多科学家表示,阅读科幻文学是他们走上科研之路的第一步。科幻文学描绘的世界通常和现实有很大差距。这些来自未来的技术现在好像对我们没有什么帮助,但从长远来看,往往有着极大的意义。

选项

答案A:王先生,很高兴您能做客我们的节目。今天我们要聊的是科幻文学。人类有关想象的历史非常悠久,由此涌现出一大批优秀的科幻作品。对全世界的读者而言,他们也许更熟悉欧美作家的作品。那么王先生,您本人就是一名科幻作家,是否能给我们简单介绍一下中国的科幻作品,以及它在中国的接受度如何? B: Science fiction literature has a late start in China, and it doesn’t have a lot of readers, either. This is related to its features. Sci-fi literature involves scientific knowledge and is a bit professional. Readers will not pay attention to this genre unless they’re particularly interested in it. But in recent years, there have been more and more high-quality Chinese sci-fi novels and movies, and the media has also been promoting it. As a result, Chinese people start to pay attention to science fiction. A:这对科幻作家来说是个好消息。另外我很好奇,您最喜欢的科幻作家是谁,他/她对您的职业生涯有什么影响呢? B: I like many sci-fi authors, as different people have different styles. But it is Isaac Asimov who has influenced me the most. I read his Foundation Trilogy when I was little and I was deeply impressed by it. As far as I know, the Three Laws of Robotics he proposed in this series have a great influence on many sci-fi novels and movies. A:抱歉打断您一下,在这里和各位不太熟悉科幻作品的观众们非常简单地解释一下“机器人三定律”:第一,机器人不能伤害人类,或坐视人类受到伤害;第二,除非违背第一定律,否则机器人必须服从人类的指令;第三,只要不违背第一或第二定律,则机器人必须保护自己。那我们回到原来的话题。王先生,在您看来,科幻文学是如何推动人类社会发展的呢? B: Sci-fi literature can imagine the future and predict scientific and technological progress, which can boost creativity and generate people’s interests in science and technology. In fact, many scientists say that reading sci-fi literature is their first step towards scientific research. There’s usually a huge gap between the world described in sci-fi literature and reality. These technologies from the future seem to be unhelpful to us now, but in the longer term, they have great significance.
