托福TPO/Official 39 Con 1听力原文What are two characteristics of Grotowski's theater that the speakers mention?【新东方在线】

旁白：请听一段学生和戏剧学教授之间的对话。

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a theater professor.

教授：嘿，我好像在昨天的《芳心之罪》的演出上看到你了？

Professor: Hey, didn't I see you at the performance of Crimes of the Heart last night?

学生：是的。实际上是我舍友在其中演了一个角色。

Student: Yeah. Actually my roommate had a small part in it.

教授：真的吗？那场演出很是惊艳了我。

Professor: Really? I was impressed with the performance.

There sure are some talented people here.

学生：你知道，贝斯·亨利是一个还可以的剧作家。

Student: You know, Beth Henley is an okay playwright.

她写了一些高大上的东西，但是就是有点太过传统了，有一点太过平常了，尤其是考虑到我正在做的研究。

She has written some decent stuff, but it was a little too traditional, a little too ordinary, especially considering the research I'm doing.

学生：是一个关于波兰剧导演耶日·格洛托夫斯基的研究。

Student: On the Polish theater director Jerzy Grotowski.

教授：格洛托夫斯基。他是有一点背离主流戏剧的特点。

Professor: Grotowski. Yeah, that's a little out of the mainstream.

Student: That's what I wanted to talk to you about.

我有一个关于我们的论文和演讲的问题。

I had a question about our essay and presentation.

学生：好的。有一些格洛托夫斯基的观点是很难理解的。

Student: Yeah. Some of these ideas, uh, Grotowski's ideas are really hard to understand.

而且，我觉得如果我通过演出他的戏剧来阐释它，我的同学可能更能理解。

And, well, I thought the class would get more out of it if I acted out some of it to demonstrate.

学生：好吧，我在写论文上尽力了，别的要通过演出来补充。

Student: Well, I will do the best I can with that, but supplement it with a performance.

教授：好的。但是我们现在在谈什么呢？

Professor: Alright. But what exactly are we talking about here?

格洛托夫斯基，我肯定你是知道的，他的职业生涯可以被分成几个阶段。

Grotowski, as I'm sure you know, had several phases in his career.

学生：我主要是对于他20世纪60年代晚期的思想感兴趣：极简剧院。

Student: I'm mainly interested in his idea from the late 1960s: a poor theater.

你知道，这就是一个反对使用太多道具、灯光、华丽服装的运动。

You know, a reaction against a lot of props, light, fancy costumes, and all that.

所以这个对于我们要在教室里的演出很有用。

教授：是的。我确信你的很多同学对于格洛托夫斯基并不熟悉。

Professor: Yes. I'm sure a lot of your classmates are unfamiliar with Grotowski.

学生：是的，这就会导致……我认为他的极简剧院时期和其它的时期有重叠，在他考虑到表演者和观众的关系的时候。

Student: Right. And this leads...I think there's overlap between his poor theater phase and another phase of his, when he was concerned with the relationship between performers and the audience.

我也想对于这个多读一些材料，多写一些文章。

I also want to read more and write about that.

教授：你知道，我几年前看过一场表演。

Professor: You know, I saw a performance several years ago.

你知道，我们已经习惯了单纯地看剧，坐在后排，但是这场演出，采用了格洛托夫斯基的原则，变成了带有一点对抗性的，稍微有一点让人不舒服。

You know, you are used to just watching a play, sitting back, but this performance, borrowing Grotowski's principles, was really confrontational, a little uncomfortable.

演员会直接直视观众的眼睛，甚至在我们周围走动，把我们也卷入表演中。

The actors looked right in our eyes, even moved us around, involved us in the action.

学生：是的。我希望我可以在给班级同学表演的时候也做到这样。

Student: Yeah. I hope I can do the same when I perform for the class.

我有一点担心，因为这场表演动作很多。

I'm a bit worried since the acting is so physical.

That there's so much physical preparation involved.

教授：一些演员甚至花费一生来研究这种戏剧，所以不要期待在短短几周之内获得大的进展。但是我确信你还是可以发现一些的。

Professor: Well, some actors spend their whole lives working on this, so don't expect to get very far in a few weeks, but I'm sure you can bring a couple of points across.

如果你需要延长课程时间的话，就告诉我。

And if you need some extra class time, let me know.

学生：不用。我觉得我可以在规定时间里完成。

Student: No. I think I can fit it into the regular time for the presentation.

教授：好的。我认为这个表演可以引发很好的讨论，关于观众及其与戏剧的关系的讨论。

Professor: Okay. I think this will provide for some good discussion about these ideas and other aspects of the audience and their relationship to theatrical productions.

What does the student imply when he talks about the play he recently attended?

What are two characteristics of Grotowski's theater that the speakers mention?

Why does the professor mention a play she attended several years ago?

What does the professor imply about the acting the student wants to do?
