Todd: Actually I still enjoy newspapers somewhat. I like to eat my lunch and read the newspaper or maybe have a newspaper when I'm taking the bus or the train, so I have something to read, but I don't buy them as much as I used to.

托德:其实我仍然非常喜欢报纸。我喜欢一边吃午饭一边看报纸,也喜欢在坐公交车和火车时看报纸,虽然我仍然在看报,但我不像以前那样买报纸了。
Monica: Yeah, that's true, I really like the idea of having a newspaper in paper form and I do enjoy opening it up and having a coffee in the morning and reading the newspaper, but I don't actually do that now.
莫妮卡:是这样的,我喜欢印刷的报纸,也喜欢早上打开报纸,一边喝咖啡一边看报纸,不过我现在基本上不这么做了。
Todd: So how often do you actually start and finish a book?
托德:你多久能看完一本书?
Monica: Well, I've been reading maybe one or two books a week, recently which is quite a lot for me.
莫妮卡:嗯,我基本上一周看一到两本书,最近我看的更多。
Todd: Yeah, that's pretty good.
托德:嗯,真不错。
Monica: As I said earlier, it's really because I have a bit more spare time than I used to so that has changed my reading habits. And when I'm traveling I love reading, so if I'm on a train I love reading a book and if I'm on a plane I prefer to read a book than watch a movie, for example, so I get a lot of enjoyment out of reading books, still. Having said that I do listen to e-books on the computer...
莫妮卡:我之前说过,因为我现在的空闲时间比以前多,所以我的阅读习惯发生了改变。我喜欢在旅途中看书,我喜欢在火车上看书,如果我坐飞机的话,我更喜欢看书,而不是看电影,看书给我带来了很多乐趣。虽然如此,不过我也会在电脑上听有声电子书。
Todd: Oh, I love e-books.
托德:哦,我喜欢电子书。
Monica:...which I love because it's very therapeutic I think listening to someone reading to you, a bit like when you were little and your mom used to read you a book. I like to do that when I'm really tired and I don't want to actually physically read a book and I don't want to even check my e-mail. I just want to lie down and basically listen to a story. Yeah, so I have enjoyed doing that recently and technology has had a big part to play in how much I do that.
莫妮卡:我喜欢听有声电子书是因为我觉得那令人精神放松,听其他人给你读书,就像小时候听妈妈讲故事一样。我非常累的时候,不想看书甚至不想检查电子邮件时,我就会听电子书。我只想躺下来听故事。我最近很喜欢听电子书,科技对我的阅读习惯产生了很大的影响。
