美语情景对话 第1204期:How much TV do you watch? 你花多少时间看电视

Shon: Hello everybody, this video is for and my name is Shon from Uzbekistan.

肖恩：我是肖恩，来自乌兹别克斯坦。

Gaew: My name is Gaew from Thailand.

高：我是高，来自泰国。

Shon: Nice to meet you.

肖恩：见到你很高兴。

Gaew: Nice to meet you too. The question is how much TV do you watch? How much?

高：见到你我也很高兴。今天要讨论的问题是，你花多少时间看电视？多少时间？

Shon: Well actually to be honest, I don't really watch TV. I mean I watch TV when it comes to the special programs, probably I would say three or four hours a week, but not a day. I spend most of my time on internet in front of my PC.

肖恩：说实话，我不怎么看电视。我通常会看那种特别节目，我一周大概看三四个小时的电视，不是一天。我大部分时间都坐在电脑前上网。

Gaew: Yeah.

高：好。

Shon: Yeah. How about you?

肖恩：嗯。你呢？

Gaew: Well similar. I have a television in my room but I don't really watch TV that much. I usually watch TV in the morning when I'm preparing myself before I go to school, that early morning news and something like that because I don't really read newspapers and I also spend too much time on internet. So yeah it can be some hours a week.

高：我和你差不多。我房间里有电视，不过我不太常看电视。我一般早上在为去学校做准备时，会看电视，通常我会看早间新闻，因为我不看报纸，而且我大部分时间也在上网。我大概一周看几个小时的电视。

Shon: True and this might be for some young people they don't really watch TV. I don't know this is where you are, yeah.

肖恩：对，现在年轻人都不常看电视。不过我不清楚你们的情况。

Gaew: Yes.

高：对。
