something that affects all of us 我们聊聊和所有人相关的事 the weather that's because across the UK 就是天气，全英范围内 we've had a hot and dry summer 刚经历了炎热干燥的夏天 some areas are finally starting to see more rainfall 部分地区终于迎来更多降雨 but it's already impacted many areas of our lives 但已影响到我们生活的方方面面 including farming 其中就包括农业 I've been speaking to some of you to find out more 我采访了一些民众了解详情 have you noticed the grass or plants near you 你有没有注意到身边的草木 are they dry brown crispy 是不是发黄发干、一碰就碎 we've had a long hot summer with very little rainfall 这个夏天漫长炎热，降水极少 which has led to drought being declared in England 英格兰已宣布进入干旱状态 and all of Wales 威尔士全境也是如此 look at some of these 看看这些 yeah and we obviously have to cut that 对，这个我们肯定得切掉 because that's too 因为它太 small and just like 小了，而且还 it's curvy 弯了 yeah it's so curved that's not right isn't it 对，弯得太厉害了，不合格对吧 you can see all the white mold 你能看到上面全是白霉 oh yes you can 哦，确实是 I've come to meet Primrose 我今天来见普丽姆罗丝 on her family farm in East Suffolk to find out more 到她位于东萨福克的家庭农场了解情况

had a lot of hot weather recently 对，最近天气特别热 haven't we and not 对吧，而且 the loss of rain 降水太少 how has it affected your farm 这对你们农场有什么影响 well now everything's just like brown 现在所有作物都发黄了 it's just like crispy now 干得发脆 everything's now so small 所有作物个头都很小 because it's not getting watered as much as it needs to 因为浇的水不够 we water in say 比如说我们给 celery for 2 hours and that could do with like 4 hours 芹菜浇2小时，本来得浇4小时 but you can only 但我们只能 do it for 2 hours 浇2小时 because everything else needs watering 因为其他作物也需要浇水 drought happens when there's a shortage of rain 干旱指的是长时间 for long periods of time 降水短缺的现象 water is essential for growing crops and plants 水是作物和植物生长的必需品 so farms like these 所以这类农场 are really feeling the effects of the droughts 正深受干旱影响 and it's not just in Suffolk 而且不止萨福克郡是这样 we spoke to some of you in the most affected areas 我们采访了重灾区的一些民众 to find out what it's been like 了解当地的情况 where you live 究竟如何 the crops my dad planted in the spring 我爸爸春天种的庄稼 have barely had any rain at

how her crops are being affected 看看她的作物受了什么影响 this one is growing cool yet but because it's so hot 这株本来长得不错，但天太热了 they're either massive or they're absolutely tiny 它们要么长得超大，要么特别小 they're not the right size 大小都不合格 the leaves are also impacting the plants 叶子也影响了作物生长 because the leaves are 因为叶子本来 supposed to like almost feed the plants 是要给作物提供养分的 and 而且 because they're not getting enough rain from the soil 土壤里雨水不足 it's not being able to give the courgettes and 没法给西葫芦还有 pumpkins their water that they need 南瓜提供所需的水分 the dry conditions 干旱的环境 affect farmers and what they can grow 影响农民的种植产量 which then

humans laugh well our residents 人类为什么会笑？我们的常驻 CBC docs have this one CBC专家会为大家解答 take it away Christians and 有请克里斯蒂安… why do humans laugh and Chris is going to answer it 人类为什么会笑？克里斯将为大家解答 come on well the truth is no one's entirely sure 其实啊，没人能完全确定 exactly why we laugh 我们发笑的确切原因 what we do know is that 但我们可以确定的是 all human cultures have laughter 所有人类文化中都有笑声 that we learn to laugh 我们学着发笑 or we start laughing 或者说我们开始笑的时候 it's actually a reflex before we can even talk 那其实是我们还不会说话时的本能反应 and one of the reasons that 其中一个原因是 particularly babies may laugh 尤其婴儿会笑的原因 is it brings us closer together with them 是笑声能拉近我们和他们的距离 it's a way of bonding even before you can speak 这是你还不会说话时的情感联结方式 so it seems that 所以看起来 laughter is a way of humans sharing an experience 笑是人类分享经历的一种方式 of sharing their emotions 也是分享情绪的方式 and bringing 还能 ourselves closer together with other people 拉近我们和他人的距离 because we are fundamentally social animals 因为人类本质上是社会性动物 there we go that is a very good answer 太棒了，这个回答非常好 Christian did you know 克里斯蒂安，你知道吗 there are actually scientists whose job it is 其实有科学家的工作就是 to pickle animals and make them laugh 挠动物痒痒，逗它们发笑 because other animals laugh 因为其他动物也会笑 and that's how they research laughter 他们就是用这种方式研究笑的 what a good answer Chris that's amazing 克里斯答得太好了，太精彩了 I'll tell you why else people laugh 我再告诉你人们发笑的另一个原因 when they're tickled 就是被挠痒痒的时候 thanks Kristens and I hate being tickled
