A retro TV set
You too can be on TV
Neil
: This is Real English from BBC Learning1 English. I’m Neil.

Helen: And I’m Helen.

Neil: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.

Helen: 在 Real English 节目中,我们要来了解和学习一些英国英语语言中新出现的新词汇和短语。

Neil: It’s very important to stay up-to-date2 with English as new words and expressions enter the language all the time.

Helen: Neil, 我们今天的新词是什么呢?

Neil: Today’s expression is ‘reality TV’.

Helen: Reality TV. 现实电视?怎么讲?

Neil: Well, reality TV is a type of TV programme. It means that real-life people, not actors, are followed and filmed in a real situation, or game.

Helen: 这就是所谓真实电视,reality TV, 又称“真人秀”,就是把电视镜头对准没有受过专业训练的志愿演员,将他们的言行、个性和品质,在规定的环境中拍摄下来做成节目播放。

Neil: Yes. In the UK, there is a programme called Big Brother. Real people live in a house and they are filmed 24 hours a day.

Helen: 这种真人秀在我们中国拍摄播出以后也是迅速走红起来了。

Neil: Yes. Maybe you saw ‘Wise Man Takes All’ on TV in China. It was very popular.

A: Are you going to watch ‘Big Brother’ tonight?

B: No, I hate reality TV programmes! They’re boring.

Helen: Why is reality TV popular in the UK?

Neil: Reality TV shows real people in real situations, so people like it I suppose.

Helen: Do you?

Neil: Not so much. I prefer a good film to reality TV. It gets boring after a while.

Helen: Do you think so?

Neil: Yes, and now there are so many reality TV shows it’s not interesting anymore.

Helen: I agree they are quite boring nowadays.

Neil: Yes, I have enough reality every day. I don’t want to watch it on TV when I get home!

Helen: 是的,不管你对 reality TV - 真实电视或者真人秀是爱还是恨,我们都不可否认它确实是现在风靡一时的电视节目形式。And that’s all we have time for today.

Neil: Yes, that’s all. You’ve been listening to Real English from BBC Learning English. Join us again soon for more up-to-the-minute Real English. Bye.
