中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng) 2017-10-23 17:31
原來(lái)網(wǎng)站新用戶(hù)注冊(cè)只用簡(jiǎn)單填個(gè)表格就可以了,現(xiàn)在注冊(cè)還需要提供電話(huà)號(hào)碼、郵件地址,有些時(shí)候還需要身份證明。網(wǎng)上匿名的面紗正被掀開(kāi),網(wǎng)絡(luò)行為因此可以得到更規(guī)范的管理和監(jiān)督。
I've been away a lot these past few weeks, filming the latest entries in the Good Luck China series of videos.
過(guò)去幾周,我一直忙碌于《好運(yùn)中國(guó)》系列片最新作品的拍攝工作,很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間都在外地。
There's been some unforgettable experiences - most notably floating down the Lijiang River with a pair of cormorants on a traditional bamboo fishing raft - but it's also meant spending extended periods of time far away from home.
拍攝過(guò)程中有許多難忘的經(jīng)歷。例如,印象最深的便是乘竹筏順漓江而下時(shí),竹筏上還有一對(duì)鸕鶿。但這也意味著要長(zhǎng)時(shí)間遠(yuǎn)離我家。
Luckily, my fiancee bought me an e-reader recently, which not only gives me something to occupy my mind during the long journeys, but also makes it easier than ever to catch up on my reading. And catch up I have!
十分幸運(yùn)的是,我未婚妻最近給我買(mǎi)了一個(gè)電子閱讀器。有了它,漫長(zhǎng)的旅途終于不再無(wú)所事事,終于可以更加輕松地趕上我的閱讀進(jìn)度了。是的,我趕上了!
Previously, I could only rarely be seen with a book in hand - my excuse always being that, after a day of reading for work, the last thing I wanted to do is read some more once I got home. When stuck inside a plane, train or automobile, however, I soon change my tune.
我以前很少有時(shí)間看書(shū),我的理由是——在單位看了一天的東西,回到家一點(diǎn)其他的內(nèi)容都讀不進(jìn)去。然而當(dāng)我窩在飛機(jī)、火車(chē)或者汽車(chē)上時(shí),我又變了主意。
Street of Eternal Happiness by Rob Schmitz was my book of the summer. I read it from cover to cover while on the road filming back in July and was absorbed by the characters' stories, all of which are connected by a single Shanghai street.
今年夏天我讀了羅伯?施密茨寫(xiě)的《長(zhǎng)樂(lè)路》。七月拍攝返程時(shí)我把這本書(shū)從頭到尾讀完了,沉浸在人物故事中不能自拔,這些故事都發(fā)生一條上海的街道上。
Next on my reading list was something completely different, however - the sci-fi adventure Ready Player One.
然而,我之后讀的《玩家一號(hào)》則是風(fēng)格則完全不同的科幻冒險(xiǎn)小說(shuō)。
Not only had I heard that it was riveting, I was also keen to explore the virtual world created by its author Ernest Cline before it appears on the big screen next spring, courtesy of Stephen Spielberg.
這本書(shū)引人入勝,明年春天史蒂芬?斯皮爾伯格導(dǎo)演將把它搬上大屏幕,我迫不及待想在電影上映之前,探秘作者恩斯特?克萊恩一手創(chuàng)造的虛擬世界。
The plot revolves around a favorite topic of mine: virtual reality and artificial worlds. Yet something rather odd occurred to me as I plowed my way through its 385 pages - this story, set in the year 2044, already seems a little dated.
這本書(shū)討論的正是我喜歡的話(huà)題:虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)與人工世界。然而,在閱讀這本385頁(yè)書(shū)的過(guò)程中,我發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些稀奇之事——這個(gè)設(shè)定于2044年的故事,現(xiàn)在看倒有點(diǎn)過(guò)時(shí)。
Ready Player One was only published six years ago and, in many ways, the future it portrays is pretty relatable. Our technology might not be as advanced as that in the book, but what's described is at least believable.
《玩家一號(hào)》在六年前才出版發(fā)行,從許多角度來(lái)說(shuō),它塑造的未來(lái)是有跡可循的。也許未來(lái)人類(lèi)的科技發(fā)展不會(huì)像書(shū)中那樣先進(jìn),但起碼書(shū)中的描寫(xiě)是可信的。
Yet a key element of the plot, which I believe I can share without giving too much away, is the protagonist's ability to remain anonymous online - a quality that is increasingly becoming a thing of the past.
然而,在不劇透的情況下,我可以透露一點(diǎn)的是,這個(gè)故事的關(guān)鍵一環(huán)便是主人公可以在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上一直保持匿名狀態(tài)——對(duì)于我們來(lái)說(shuō),網(wǎng)上匿名已經(jīng)逐漸成為過(guò)去時(shí)了。
Websites that once allowed new users to sign up by doing little more than filling in a form now require phone numbers, email addresses and, in some cases, formal ID.
原來(lái)網(wǎng)站新用戶(hù)注冊(cè)只用簡(jiǎn)單填個(gè)表格就可以了,現(xiàn)在注冊(cè)還需要提供電話(huà)號(hào)碼、郵件地址,有些時(shí)候還需要身份證明。
The veil of anonymity is being lifted, so that online behaviors can be better regulated and policed.
網(wǎng)上匿名的面紗正被掀開(kāi),網(wǎng)絡(luò)行為因此可以得到更規(guī)范的管理和監(jiān)督。
Here in China, as of the first of this month, internet companies and service providers now have to ensure users complete real-name registration before they are allowed to post comments online.
這個(gè)月開(kāi)始,中國(guó)首次實(shí)行全網(wǎng)實(shí)名制,互聯(lián)網(wǎng)公司和服務(wù)商必須確保用戶(hù)在網(wǎng)上發(fā)表言論前完成實(shí)名登記。
I wouldn't be surprised to see similar moves made elsewhere, by private companies if not the governments themselves.
如果其他國(guó)家的政府或者私人企業(yè)也采取了類(lèi)似措施,我一點(diǎn)也不意外。
It truly seems that the Web's Wild West phase is drawing to a close, and whatever follows is unlikely to mirror Mr Cline's vision of our shared virtual future.
互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上“狂野的西部世界”似乎將不復(fù)存在,不管我們共同的虛擬空間未來(lái)如何發(fā)展,都不再會(huì)像克萊恩描寫(xiě)的那般了。
