新概念雙語(yǔ):臉書CEO推《三體》:年度書單有哪些
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s 2015 new year’s resolution was to read an important book every two week and discuss it with the Facebook community.
臉書CEO馬克·扎克伯格2015年的新年決心就是每?jī)蓚€(gè)禮拜讀一本重要的書,并且在網(wǎng)站的社區(qū)上討論。
Zuckerberg’s book club, A Year of Books, has focused on big ideas that affect society and the business community. He has broken up those heavy books with some lighter science fiction, Liu Cixin’s “The Three-body Problem.
扎克伯格的讀書俱樂(lè)部“讀書之年”聚焦影響社會(huì)和商界的偉大想法。他已經(jīng)舍棄內(nèi)容沉重的大部頭書,取而代之的是輕松愉悅的科幻小說(shuō)——劉慈欣的《三體》。
It was first published in China in 2008, and the English translation that came out last year, won the 2015 hugo award for Best Novel.
《三體》出版于2008年,其譯本去年問(wèn)世,獲2015年雨果獎(jiǎng)最佳長(zhǎng)篇小說(shuō)。
Zuckerberg sci-fi picks can be lighter fare than his other options, but they all have some cultural significance.
比起馬克··扎克伯格選的其他書籍,科幻類相對(duì)內(nèi)容輕松,但都頗具文化意義。
Zuckerberg, who learned Mandarin, has been a student of Chinese and chinese culture in recent years as he tried to persuade the Chinese government to give its 1.4 billion inhabitants access to their social networks.
馬克·扎克伯格學(xué)過(guò)普通話,因?yàn)橄胝f(shuō)服中國(guó)政府讓其14億居民上他的社交網(wǎng)站,近幾年學(xué)起了中文和中國(guó)文化。
On his private Facebook page, he said: “the Three-body Problem” will be “a fun break from all the economic and social sciences books I’ve read recently.”He added that he will increase the pace of his book picks.
在他臉書個(gè)人頁(yè)面上,他寫道,“近來(lái)我讀經(jīng)濟(jì)和社會(huì)科學(xué),而‘三體問(wèn)題’內(nèi)容輕松有趣,可以作為調(diào)劑。”他補(bǔ)充說(shuō)道,他會(huì)加快選書的節(jié)奏。
《三體》英文版譯者劉宇昆留言,表示“希望你喜歡這本書”。
