 談論電視上的布袋戲節目 Talking about a puppet show on TV
|
Jane: So, what did you think about the puppet theater TV show?
Ian: To be honest, I'm amazed. I thought it was fantastic.
Jane:I told you you'd like it.
Ian:I know, but I didn't believe you. The puppet shows we have in England are not very entertaining. They were popular about 200 years ago, but nobody watches them now.
Jane: Taiwanese puppet theater has a very long history too, but the art has adapted over time. I guess that's why it's still popular.
Ian: You might be right. This puppet show used lots of special effects that didn't look old-fashioned at all.
Jane: And the puppets are quite intricate, so they appear quite lifelike when you see them.
Ian: Yeah, but the best part was the story. English puppet shows use silly stories, so it was great to see the performance tell a serious story with lots of action in it.
Jane: That's great. I'm really glad you liked it!
珍：那麼，你覺得電視上播出的布袋戲怎麼樣？
伊恩：老實說，我很驚訝耶，太精彩了。
珍：我就說你一定會喜歡。
伊恩：我知道，可是我那時候不相信啊。我們英格蘭的偶戲沒什麼意思，200年前是很流行啦，現在已經沒人要看了。
珍：台灣的布袋戲歷史也很悠久喔，而且也一直有在跟上時代，我猜這是布袋戲仍然不退流行的原因吧。
伊恩：你說的可能是對的喔。那齣布袋戲運用了大量的特效，看起來一點也不過時。
珍：而且那些戲偶做得好精緻，看起來栩栩如生。
伊恩：對，但是最棒的還是布袋戲的故事。英國的皮偶戲演的故事都很愚蠢，所以看到布袋戲把一個正經的故事配上那麼多動作來表演，真的很棒。
珍：太好了，真高興你喜歡布袋戲。 |
