主持人照本宣科出题And(and是无厘头，And什么是用来发问或评论而言，其实这里应该是Next，或直接说Well,the next topic for youis…),the topic for your speech is…LastJuly,( 中国人喜欢把时间地点状语放在句子前面，是因为汉语的格式习惯了，英语不是为了强调一般都放在后面。此处最好总结一下这个topic,直接清晰告诉参赛者这个topic是什么。而不是没有衔接地转入一个故事。
这里要概括一下Well,the next topic for you isthe deathlychallenge.
)a college student from TsinghuaUniversity(college几乎是多余，清华不会养小学生，这里直接说)a Tsinghuastudent言简意洁)
was killed in a mountain climbingaccident.The accident （这里如果不用it就还是汉语翻译过来的模样）brought back memories of a smiliaraccident two years ago when(in which) five students from Peking Universitydied while scaling(中国人最容易翻译错的这个字，scale不是攀爬而是已经攀爬到顶了，完成了登顶) a mountain in Himalayas.How do youvalue (这个value不是简单的think)the challenge that(这个that太没必要)they set themselves?
【牛津才子评论】Well,the next topic for you is thedeathly challenge.A tsinghua student was killed in a mountainclimbing accident last July.It brought back memories of a smiliaraccident two years ago ,in which five students from PekingUniversity died while climbing a Himalayas mountain.Well,how do youthink of thedeathly challenge they set themselves?
女评委:Thank you very much(中国人用烂了的very much,此处评委没必要加重语气太感谢一个参赛者，除非帮了她，后面说wonderful speech就够感谢了) for your speech.I think you areright. (这句话才是评委说的话)Life is precious.But accidentshappen(ed) (事情发生了，太翻译了).But when someone dies, (太翻译了，脱节了，一个人追梦而死，其实英语就是die for one’sbeliefs即可)pursuing a dream or an ambition,should it not be seen as something positive?What if he has notdied?He will be a hero. (英语人第一是时态，第二是语态，一直在意义上跑，这里的死，英美人会用到位，而不是一个died就翻译完了的。)
【牛津才子评论】Thankyou,thank you for your wonderfulspeech. I think you are right.Life isprecious.Anyway,it has happened.But,is dying for one’s beliefssomething positive?What if he had survived the accident?He wouldhave been a hero.
