K: Julie, what's on the tube?

J: nothing but tons of commercials. These days the amount of commercials is amazing.

K: yeah. Maybe we can change to another channel. what about the sports channel? Let's see if there's a game on.

J: okay. Nope, it's a replay of yesterday's soccer match between Brazil and Spain.

k: it was a good game, but not good enough to watch again. Keep surfing.

J: alright. Hmm,this movie is a rerun...I don't know how many times I've seen this show...Commercial again...and a replay of the talk show...oh no,

this show is terrible, you don't wanna watch it.

K:ok, what is it?

J: it's a total rip-off of an American reality show, but the imitation 1 is unbearably 2 clumsy 3.

K: oh, I know this kind of shows. Sometimes they really piss me off. If I wanted reality,I'd go outside.

J: yeah...it seems what we have on TV now are either repeats, or commercials, or low-quality shows. There's really nothing to watch.

K: I don't get it. We have more than 100 channels and there's still nothing good on! Maybe we should just turn off the TV, get outside, and do something real.

J: cool.

朱莉,电视上演什么?

没什么,全是广告.最近广告的数量多得惊人.

是啊,或许我们应该换个频道.看看体育频道有没有比赛吧?

好啊,没有,现在在重播昨天巴西和西班牙的足球比赛.

比赛很精彩,但是我不想再看一遍.再看看其他的台吧.

好的,这个电影是重播的...这个节目不知道看了有多少遍了...又是广告...访谈节目的重播...啊,这个节目特别差,你肯定不想看.

恩,什么节目?

这个节目完全照搬美国一档真人秀,可是模仿的十分拙劣.

哦,我知道这类节目.我有时候看到这类节目就特别生气.如果我想看真人,我自己出去就是了.

是啊,看来现在电视上不是重播,就是广告,再不就是劣质的节目,真的没什么好看的.

真不明白,我们有100多个频道,可还是没有什么好看的节目,或许我们应该把电视关了,出去走走,做点有意思的事.

好的.
