BBC Learning English - Emmet’s Christmas Interview 圣诞节专访Emmet

　　Feifei: 印刷术。

　　Emmet: And I can’t think of another right now.

　　Feifei: OK, the other three are: the compass 指南针，gunpowder 火药，and paper 纸。Now question number four: 地理, geography. Can you name three provinces, 省份, in China?

　　Emmet: Yeah, I think so. Fujian, Hunan and Xienjing, Xinjong …

　　Feifei: 新疆。

　　Emmet: Xinjiang.

　　Feifei: Very good. All right, last question. How do you say ‘computer’ in Chinese?

　　Emmet: I think it’s 电脑。

　　Feifei: Good! Very well done, this -

　　Emmet: I really like this word because it’s an interesting word how such a modern word literally translates as ‘electric brain’ – is that right?

　　Feifei: Yeah, it is. So this time you got four and a half out of five. Congratulations Emmet.

　　Emmet: Thank you.

　　Feifei: Big progress!

　　Emmet: Cheers.

　　Feifei: 虽然我们录制这期节目还没到圣诞节，不过这个节目会在圣诞节期间跟大家见面。So Emmet, what are you doing for Christmas this year?

　　Emmet: I’m going home for Christmas. I’m gonna fly home early morning Christmas Eve and I love doing this because everybody’s in good form in the airport and it’s just a great atmosphere around the place.
