光阴长廊里的我们 第一卷 岁月静好(七十)英语辩论赛(六)

世界有那么多人 著

正方二辩邱毅站了起来，“We all know that making paper books requires raw materials. With the prominence of global ecological problems, there are fewer and fewer resources, but these problems do not exist in electronic products.”

(我们都知道，制造纸书需要原材料，随着全球生态问题的突出，资源越来越少。)

“We only need electricity and network, low consumption and no pollution. Please argue with each other. How can paper books  surpass  e-books in terms  of energy  conservation and environmental protection?”

(而电子产品就不存在这些问题，只需要电和网络，低消耗、无污染。请问对方辩友，在节约能源和保护环境上，纸质书如何能超越电子书？)

反方二辩是大三的陆霓，她曼妙的身材刚一起身，下面的观众席里就传来一片欢呼声。

王教授板着脸敲了敲桌子，回头狠狠瞪了瞪那几个起哄的同学。

有了这个插曲，陆霓显得有点不自然，“The current production technology can produce great value with small resources, and whether it is the production of paper books or electronic products, it will produce carbon emissions.”

(现在的生产技术可以做到用小资源生产大价值，而且无论是生产纸质书还是电子产品，都会产生碳排放量。)

“Paper books can also be reused. We have heard of e-waste, but we have not heard of paper waste. The recycling rate of paper books is much higher than that of electronic products.”

(纸质书生产出来还可以重复利用，我们听说过电子垃圾，却没听说过纸质垃圾，纸质书本的回收利用率远高于电子产品。)

晓玉优雅大方地站了起来，标准的英式英语发音在寂静的教室里回响，“In addition to energy issues, we should return to reading itself. The reading experience of paper books can also be realized in electronic products. ”

(除了能源问题，我们更应该回归阅读的本身，纸质书的阅读体验在电子产品上也能实现。)

“Moreover, as long as the e-book is downloaded in advance, it can be seen anywhere, not limited by the network. ”

“而且，电子书只要提前下载好，就能在任何地方看，不受网络限制。”

I would like to ask each other's debate friends.If a classmate wants to get on the plane today, do you think he will choose a bulky paper book or a convenient e-book?

(请问对方辩友，如果今天，有一位同学要上飞机，你得他会选择笨重的纸质书还是方便的电子书呢？)

“肯定会是电子书啊。”台下，好几个同学都不自觉脱口而出。

高凌眯着眼睛，反问句的辩论技巧用的不错，还有在调动现场观众的气氛方面，也有很大进步。

反方三辩是个皮肤黝黑的大三女生，她叫张霞，据说成绩很好，和陆霓有一拼。她的口语发音也很纯正，“I've personally experienced reading e-books for a long time on the plane. It's very uncomfortable. My neck is sour and my eyes are astringent. After our investigation, in fact, more people will choose to bring paper books instead of e-books."

(我亲身体验过在飞机上长时间看电子书，非常难受，脖酸眼涩，且经我们调查，其实更多的人会选择带纸质书而非电子书。)

“那是你，又不能代表大家。”

“怎么调查的呢？我都没收到调查问卷，这样说太没有说服力了。”

台下，很多同学议论纷纷。

陆霓又站了起来，她看向了晓玉，“In the information age, the popularity of electronic products has brought many problems. How to solve the problems of electronic radiation, myopia and teenagers' Internet addiction?”

(信息化时代，电子产品的普及带来了很多问题，请问对方辩友，如何解决电子辐射、近视问题，以及青少年网络成瘾问题呢？)

晓玉不慌不忙，“In the long run, technology is developing and science and technology is innovating. Even if electronic radiation cannot be eliminated, the harm will be minimized.”

(从长远来看，技术在发展，科技在革新，即使无法消除电子辐射，也会把危害降到最低。)

Moreover, the responsibility for myopia and Internet addiction is not entirely in e-books, which is also related to too long learning time and insufficient self-control.

(而且近视和网络成瘾责任不全在电子书，与学习时间过长、自控力不足也脱不了干系。 )

台下响起了热烈的掌声，晓玉面对陆霓的“以偏概全”，回答得很全面，碾压得很彻底。

瑜直眯起了眼睛，以后千万不能和贝贝吵架，可能永远也吵不过她。

张霞不甘落后，她引用了黑格尔的“存在即合理”这一哲理，指出纸质书已存在两千年，很多已经不能用价值来衡量。

晓玉反驳道，“There are many kinds of values. E-books, whether economic or humanistic, are very precious. They can produce huge economic benefits without production costs, which paper books can't do.”

(价值有很多种，电子书无论是经济价值还是人文价值，都很珍贵，不需要生产成本，就能产生巨大的经济效益，这是纸质书无法做到的。 )

台下又一次响起了掌声，这一次，评委们也都鼓起掌来。苏珊老师朝晓玉比起了胜利的手势。

晓玉笑了笑，心想，别着急，还有最后陈述阶段呢。

她清了清嗓子，“We believe that e-books will replace paper books because the carrier of E-reading development is in line with the trend of information development. In today's era of rapid changes in science and technology, the knowledge necessary for everyone is also changing, which needs to be stored by external media.”

(我方认为，电子书会替代纸质书，是因为电子阅读发展的载体符合信息发展的趋势。在当今科技日新月异的时代，每个人所必需的知识也在不断发生着变化，需要依靠外部媒介来存储。)

“Today, the update speed of the national database is several times that of ten years ago. When we face such a rapid development era, relying on the electronic carrier suitable for us for electronic reading is a better way for us to pursue the development of the times.”

(如今，国家数据库更新速度是十年前的数倍，当我们面对如此快速发展的时代，依靠适合我们的电子载体进行电子阅读，才是我们追逐时代发展的更好方式。)

当晓玉说完了最后一个单词，台下响起了掌声和欢呼声，杨霞和邱毅都很激动。

高凌也很欣慰，他最好的学生今天状态很好，几乎可以说是超水平发挥了。

轮到张霞做最后陈述，她显得有些紧张，脸涨得通红。

她从纸质书在深度阅读、传承文明、出版正规等方面具有极大的优势方面又进行了陈述，与刘江开头的阐述有所重复，在整体高度方面有所欠缺。

在等待评委评分的间隙，瑜直拉着晓玉走到了走廊尽头。

他搂着晓玉纤细的腰身，在她耳边轻语，“贝贝，我发现，你辩论越来越厉害了，以后要是我吵不过你了，怎么办啊？”

那透着委屈的语气，让晓玉哭笑不得。

“木头哥，你又逗我了？嗯，那你就让着我了呗，不行啊？”

晓玉眨了眨黑色的大眼睛，浓密的睫毛忽闪忽闪的，看着这个调皮的俏丽脸庞，瑜直感觉心尖猛烈的颤悠了一下，他炙热地吻上了晓玉的红唇，暗哑的声音在她耳边响起，“行，只准你一个人这样。”

浓情蜜意间，晓玉觉得身体变得软绵绵的，脑袋一片空白，彻底陷入了瑜直温暖的怀抱……
