实战口语情景对话 第56期:摄影 Photography

 Theodore: Hi! my name's Theodore and I'd like to talk to you a little about photography. When I first started studying photography I bought myself a fairly good film camera but since then digital cameras have been getting better and cheaper and recently I bought a somewhat¹ expensive digital camera which I think can do just about as well as most film cameras for most things. I'm particularly into photo-journalism so digital is fast and it gives me all I need for photo-journalism. And some people say that it's starting to get better quality than films, so I think digital is the way forward in the future. 嗨，我叫希欧多尔，我要讲讲有关摄影的事儿。在我刚开始学习摄影的时候，我自己买了一部很棒的胶片摄像机，但从那以后数字摄像机越来越好，越来越便宜，所以，最近我又买了一部有点儿贵的数字摄像机，我认为胶片摄像机绝大多数的功能，这款数字摄像机都能实现。我正在练习成为一名摄影记者，数字摄像机使用快捷能为我提供一切摄影记者需要的功能。有的人说现在数字摄影比胶片摄影质量更好，所以我认为数字摄像是未来的发展趋向。

Todd: OK, Great. Thanks a lot, Theodore. 好的，很棒。十分感谢你，希欧多尔。
