Mike: Hey, Amanda, have you heard of the new online computer game? It's called Skullfire and it's all the rage right now!
邁克：嘿，阿曼達(dá)，你知道最新的在線電腦游戲嗎？它叫作Skullfire，是當(dāng)下最火爆的游戲！
Amanda: Actually, I have heard of it. Isn't that the game where you go around and just shoot people? It seems like a pretty pointless game to me.
阿曼達(dá)：其實(shí)，我聽說過它。是不是那個(gè)在里面拎著槍朝人四下射擊的游戲？對(duì)我而言，它沒什么意義。
Mike: You're kidding, right? I can spend hours playing that game. Besides, what better use is the Internet?
邁克：你開玩笑吧？我可以花幾個(gè)小時(shí)玩這個(gè)游戲。你有什么辦法更好地利用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)？
Amanda: Um, let's see, off the top of my head there's checking your e-mail and looking up current news headlines. You could even do some online shopping. The Internet is like a virtual library, where you can get your hands on almost any kind of information you're looking for. How can you be so ignorant?
阿曼達(dá)：嗯，我的第一選擇就是上網(wǎng)查看e-mail或閱讀當(dāng)前的頭條新聞。你還可以網(wǎng)上購物。此外，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)就像是一個(gè)虛擬圖書館，在那里你可以得到幾乎任何你想要的信息。你怎么這么孤陋寡聞？
Mike: Since you're such an expert, what sort of things do you suggest I look up?
邁克：既然你如此專業(yè)，給我點(diǎn)建議，看些什么比較好？
Amanda: Well, a considerable problem right now is a lack of natural resources and a rise in gas prices. Why don't you go online and try to understand the situation better? You should really try to keep up with current events.
阿曼達(dá)：自然資源匱乏和天然氣價(jià)格上升是當(dāng)前的一個(gè)熱點(diǎn)問題。你為什么不去上網(wǎng)更好地了解一下這個(gè)情況？你確實(shí)應(yīng)該一下關(guān)心時(shí)事。
Mike: I keep up with current events! I read the newspaper every day!
邁克：我關(guān)心時(shí)事了！我每天都看報(bào)紙！
Amanda: Does it still count if you only read the comics and skim the articles?
阿曼達(dá)：但是，像你那樣只看漫畫或粗枝大葉地瀏覽文章，能起什么作用呢？
Mike: It's not my fault that current events are boring.
邁克：那不是我的錯(cuò)，時(shí)事文章確實(shí)很無聊。
