大家好，歡迎收聽英語六分鐘。我是凱瑟琳。

Li:AndI'mLi.Andtodaywearetalkingaboutwomen'srights.Catherine,doyouthinkwomen'srightsarewellcoveredbythemedia?

我是李。我們今天要討論的話題是女權(quán)。凱瑟琳你認(rèn)為媒體對(duì)女權(quán)的覆蓋足夠全面嗎？

Catherine:Coveredmeans'talkedabout'.AndIwouldsayitcouldbebetter,tobehonest.Manywomen'smagazinesareallaboutbeautytips,fashionandhowtopleaseyourman.Now,I'minterestedintherealissues.Onethingthemediadoesn'ttalkaboutmuchiswhattheroleofchildlesswomen,likemyself,is.Andchildlessmeans'havingnochildren'.

覆蓋到是指討論到。說實(shí)話，我覺得還不夠。許多女性雜志的內(nèi)容都是一些美麗小貼士，服飾以及如何討自己男人歡心。而我感興趣的是實(shí)質(zhì)性的問題。媒體沒有過多涉及的一個(gè)問題是無子女的女性，例如我，的角色。無子女的就是沒有孩子的。

Li:Yes.Insomesocieties,theroleofwomen—role,thewaytheyareexpectedtobehave—istohavechildren.Iftheydon't,it'slikethere'ssomethingwrongwiththem,andtheyaresupposedtobeunhappy.

是的。在一些國家，婦女的角色就是生育小孩（一個(gè)人的角色是指這個(gè)人被別人期待應(yīng)當(dāng)有的行為）。如果她們不這樣做的話，人們會(huì)認(rèn)為她們有什么問題而且不幸福。

Catherine:IhavenochildrenandI'mveryhappy.Anyway,womeninvariouscountriesaroundtheworldwanttodiscussproblemswhichareclosetohome.Andthat'swhytheBBChasorganisedaseriesofprogrammestodiscusssomeissuesthataffecthalftheworld'spopulation.Theseriesiscalled100Womenandit'sthethemeofthis6MinuteEnglish.

我沒有孩子但是我很幸福啊。總之，世界各國的婦女想要討論的話題都是與家庭緊密相關(guān)的。所以，BBC主辦了一系列的節(jié)目來討論影響著全球一半人口的一些問題。該系列節(jié)目叫做“100Women”，它是我們今天節(jié)目的主題。

Li:Thediscriminationagainstwomenhappensindifferentwaysindifferentcountries.

在不同的國家，婦女受歧視的情況不同。

Catherine:Discriminationmeanstheunjusttreatmentofpeoplewhobelongtodifferentgroups—inthiscase,maleandfemale.MaybeLi,morewomenshouldbeinpositionsofpower.Andthat'swhattoday'squizquestionisabout.Li,howmanyfemaleheadsofstateorgovernmentdowehavearoundtheworldnow,in2015?Isit:a)9？b)19？orc)29？

歧視是指對(duì)其他團(tuán)體人士的不公正對(duì)待，這里指的是男人對(duì)女人的歧視。李，或許應(yīng)該有更多的女性掌權(quán)者。我們今天的測(cè)試題目就是關(guān)于這個(gè)的。李，現(xiàn)在，2015年，世界上的國家或政府領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人中共有多少名女性？有a)9個(gè)？b)19個(gè)？還是c)29個(gè)？

Li:Well,I'mgoingtoguessc)29.

我猜是c)29個(gè)。

Catherine:That'sveryoptimisticandwe'llfindoutlaterifyou'reright.Now,let'stalkabouttheBBC's100Womenseason.TheseasonwillincludeprogrammesacrossalltheBBCplatforms—includingradio,online,TVandsocialmedia.AndtheBBC'sTammiWalkerisworkingonthesocialmediaoffer.Heresheis,explainingwhataudiencescanexpect.

你很樂觀，我們稍后揭曉你的答案是否正確?，F(xiàn)在我們來說一說BBC的這一季“100Women”節(jié)目。這一季的節(jié)目將會(huì)在BBC的各個(gè)平臺(tái)上播出，包括電臺(tái)、網(wǎng)絡(luò)、電視和社交媒體。在BBC的社交媒體平臺(tái)工作的塔米·沃克在這里為我們介紹了觀眾即將在節(jié)目中觀看到的內(nèi)容。

Withintheseasonwe'vegotbigdebates.Oneis"Isnewsfailingwomen?",whichisobviouslyatthecoreofwhatwearetryingtogetto.AndthatwillbealivedebateheldinLondonbutwe'regoingtohavepeoplespeakingindifferentcountriesaboutthat.Andwe'realsodoingabigdebatecalled"Whatdoesitmeantobeagoodgirloranidealwoman?".Decemberthe1stwehavethreetopics—leadership,relationshipsandimage—andwe'regoingtodothreelivedebatesonthatday.Andwe'vesentoutpackstoover100women'sgroupsaroundtheworld,sothatonthedaytheyallgetinvolved.

這一季我們組織了大型辯論。其中一期的辯題是“新聞媒體讓女性失望了嗎？”，這顯然是我們迫切想要弄明白的一個(gè)問題。這場(chǎng)辯論將在倫敦現(xiàn)場(chǎng)直播，但是我們會(huì)請(qǐng)不同國家的人來進(jìn)行辯論。我們的另一場(chǎng)大型辯論的題目是“做一個(gè)好女孩和一名理想女性意味著什么？”12月1日節(jié)目的三個(gè)話題是：領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力、人際關(guān)系和個(gè)人形象，我們會(huì)在當(dāng)天直播三場(chǎng)辯論。我們的記者已經(jīng)被分派到世界各地超過100個(gè)女性團(tuán)體當(dāng)中，以讓她們參與其中。

Li:Soatthecoreoftheproject100Womentherewillbelivedebates.Bytheway,theword'core'means'thecentralpartofit'.

那么，“100Women”節(jié)目的核心內(nèi)容是現(xiàn)場(chǎng)辯論。順便說一下，核心的意思是最主要的部分。

Catherine:Indeed.AndasyouknowLi,insomecountries,womenfacesomefairlybasicproblems.Here'sTammiWalkeragain.Andthistime,whatwordmeans,well,youknow,whatyoudowhenyougotothetoilet?

是的。如你所知，李，在一些國家女性面臨著一些相當(dāng)基本的問題。讓我們?cè)賮砺犚宦犓住の挚说慕榻B。在她所說的內(nèi)容中，哪個(gè)詞的意思是“去廁所”？

WearetyinginwithWorldToiletDay,withtherighttopee.ForexampleinIndia,womenarecharged25rupeestogotothetoiletwhereasmenobviouslycangoanywhereforfree.Youdon'thavetopaytogo!

我們所關(guān)注的問題與世界廁所日一致，即人們?nèi)臋?quán)利。例如：在印度，女性去廁所需要交費(fèi)25盧比，而顯然在任何地方男性去廁所都不需要交費(fèi)。去廁所不用交費(fèi)！

Li:Yes.WomeninIndiahavetopaytopee—itmeanstourinate,topasswater—whilemencangoanywhere.Itisamatterofpublichealthtoo.

是的。女性在印度小便需要付費(fèi)，而男性在任何地方都是免費(fèi)的。這一問題還涉及到公共衛(wèi)生。

Catherine:Mostdefinitely.Now,thisisthethirdBBC100Womenseason.LasttimeitpromptedabigdiscussioninIran.Let'shearwhatSanamDolatshahihastosay.She'saproducerfromBBCPersian.Andcanyouunderstandwhatthewordsexismmeans?

當(dāng)然。現(xiàn)在BBC的“100Women”播出到第三季了。上一季節(jié)目在伊朗引起了廣泛的討論。讓我們聽一聽薩納姆·多拉查西的說法。她是BBC伊朗頻道的制片人。你知道“性別主義”的意思嗎？

Manypeoplearefamiliarwithother'isms'youknow—forexample,racism.Whenyousay'racism'peopleknowwhatitmeansinIran.Butnotnecessarilysexism.Manypeopleconfuseditwithsex.Sosomepeoplewereaskingus:Airyourprogrammesaboutsexismafterthewatershed,after9pm,youknow,sothatthechildrenwillnotwatch.

很多人對(duì)其他以“主義”結(jié)尾的短語很熟悉，比如種族主義。一提到種族主義人們知道說的是伊朗。但是性別主義不見得如此。很多人會(huì)把它與性混淆。因此一些人要求我們?cè)谕砩暇劈c(diǎn)之后再播出節(jié)目，這樣孩子們就不會(huì)看了。

Li:Sexismmeanstohaveaverystrictideaofwhateachsexcanorcan'tdoanditisaformofprejudice.Sometimespeopleareprejudicedandtheydon'tevenknowit.

性別主義是指認(rèn)為每種性別的人應(yīng)該做什么、不應(yīng)該做什么應(yīng)該有嚴(yán)格劃分的觀點(diǎn)，這是一種歧視。有時(shí)候人們受到歧視后
