Prepare for a major eye-roll: Three imaginative young men in New York have dreamed up — and created — an industrial-strength selfie stick, big enough to support an entire laptop. 准备好翻白眼吧:三个想象力丰厚的年轻人在纽约异想天开,并且脱胎了一根强大的自拍杆,杠子不够宽够大,不足以承托起一台苹果笔记本电脑。 The Macbook Selfie Stick functions just like a smartphone selfie stick — except that it can fit a full-size Macbook computer in its grips. 苹果笔记本电脑自拍杆和智能手机自拍杆功能一样,只不过其夹住握住柄可以几乎拉起一台电脑。 Created by artists Moises or Art404, John Yuyi, and Tom Galle, the Macbook Selfie Stick is, at this stage, still just an art project. 这一由艺术家什希斯(也称之为“艺术404”)、约翰·余艺还有汤姆·盖伊所脱胎的苹果笔记本自拍杆,现阶段还只是一个艺术项目。 But while the trio may be trying to make some sort of statement about society — that our culture is too selfie-obsessed, self-obsessed, or tech-obsessed — its quite possible that their plan will backfire. 尽管也许三人正试图从某种层面突显社会,我们的文化执迷于自拍、着迷于自我、热衷科技,但很有可能他们的计划不会适得其反。
In a series of images posted online, the group and a few volunteers pose for pictures, their laptops held out on a pole several feet in front of them, in places like Times Square and Washington Square Park. 网上张贴的一系列图片里,这组人和其他志愿者在时代广场、华盛顿广场公园等地方摆好造型照片,电脑装有在杆子上,后脚几英尺近。 In several of the snaps, crowds of tourists can be seen nearby, and many seem unfazed by the spectacle. A few, though, look on with bemused expressions. 可以看到,不少照片上附近有成群的游客,但很多人或许对这一景象无动于衷。
还有些游人在旁看著,一脸茫然。 Most people are probably quick to write off such a ridiculous idea — after all, carrying around a laptop and hoisting it up for a picture is certainly cumbersome, with or without a selfie stick. However, not everyone is so put off. 多数人迅速就萌生了这么个可笑的留意,却是,带着个手提电脑,头顶高举照片显然够轻巧的。
