VOA常速英语2020--远程学习（在线收听）

All right, let's get started. Hi, I'm Nour Roberts. I'm 14 and I go to Cooper Middle.My name is Rajan Agarwal and I'm currently a student at the University of Maryland.My name is Justin White. I teach 7th grade Social Studies.My name is Mohit Gupta and I'm 28 years old. And I'm an MBA student at Georgetown University, McDonough School of Business.I am on class with my Civics teacher and she's reviewing last week's assignments.My distance learning experience so far has been kind of lame.And that is because we're doing online school at our homes by ourselves.And you don't get to see your friends and your whole entire social life is missing.And teachers just assign work for you to do on your computer.I think for the most part, the University of Maryland has done a good job with getting everything kind of settled in and getting students to perform the best they can in an online environment.My experience so far has been pretty interesting.It has made it easier because when you have everything going on online and you can see your professor's screen,then everything becomes crystal clear and it's easier to learn, from my perspective.In a regular classroom setting, I have four classes, about an hour and 15 minutes in length for each class.We have about 25 students per class.So in a normal year, for this particular setting, you know,it can be a difficult challenge, meeting the needs of each of those students,but that's something as a teacher that you're used to.

好了，我们开始吧。嗨，我是诺尔·罗伯茨。我14岁了，在库珀中学上学。我叫拉詹·阿加瓦尔，我目前是马里兰大学的一名学生。我叫贾斯丁·怀特，教七年级的社会学。我叫莫西特·古普塔,我28岁了。我是乔治敦大学麦克唐纳商学院的一名工商管理硕士。我和我的公民课老师一起上课，她正在评介上周留的任务。到目前为止，我的远程学习体验有点糟糕。这是因为们自己在家里上网课。你无法见到你的朋友，你整个社交生活都不见了。老师只是在电脑上给你布置作业。我认为从大体上来看，马里兰大学做得很好，它把一切都安排好了，也让学生在网络环境中展现最好的自己。到目前为止，我的经历还是很有趣的。因为一切事情都在网上进行，这让我更加放松，而且你可以看到教授的屏幕，于我而言，一切都变得清晰明了，也更容易学习。在常规的教室设置中，我有四节课，每节课大约一小时十五分钟。每堂课大约有25名学生。所以在正常的一学年里，在这种特殊的情况下，很难满足每个学生的需求，但作为一个老师，你已经习惯了。

This is Coach White. I was just calling to check on your student.They've got a little bit behind this week on their assignments so I was just calling to see if I can be of any help,maybe, maybe encourage your child or answering questions you might have? Distance learning is quite the buzz kill, if you ask me.Testing is definitely hard.I had a math test the other day and I'm almost positive I failed.I think distance learning is a pretty good arrangement where people can switch over to the online version whenever possible and whenever it is required. Sometimes being at home, it's not always easy to focus.It's easier to get distracted at home because it is so much more comfortable. So as far as communicating with my classmates,it's not really like it was and nobody really shows their faces or talks because it's just not as easy.It's more awkward.You can be in it. You can include your parents or not.Yeah, she's on the list for a Chromebook pick up.It's a real struggle for many parents in this era that we're dealing with.It's really trying times for all of us.Homeschooling while teaching is certainly a challenge.I can understand how some parents are struggling with it.This whole quarantine and online learning has made it easier for me to have a little bit more time because a lot of my time is spent walking between classes or going different places in the day whenever I'm at school. But at home, I don't really have that.Going to the next class is just opening a new tab.Hi, I'm back and at first,distance learning was like, not really easy, but now it's kind of got up and rolling. I usually just have school in the morning and then I work out because my swim team has Zoom calls on Tuesday and Thursdays but sometimes I just work out by myself. Welcome to the 2020 Conferral of Degrees in Course by Georgetown University. I have my parents and my sister back in India.They were supposed to come to my graduation ceremony which is now an e-ceremony. So, I miss them.But it's okay.It's a part of the whole promise that we're making for a safer society in general. Do the honors of throwing my tassel on the air. So...one, two, three. Cheers!

这是怀特教练。我打电话来看看学生们的情况。他们这周的作业有点落后，所以我打电话来看看我能不能帮上什么忙，也许可以鼓励你们的孩子或者回答你们想问的问题？如果你问的话，远程教育真是个大麻烦。测试肯定很难。我前几天有一场数学考试，我可以肯定我没及格。我觉得远程学习是一个很好的安排，人们可以随时切换到在线学习，无论何时需要。有时待在家里，很难集中注意力。在家更容易分心，因为家里太舒服了。所以在与同学交流方面，事情并不是这样的，没有人真的露脸或说话，因为这并不容易。这很尴尬。你们可以参与进来，也可以邀请你们的父母一起。是的，她上了Chromebook公司的录取名单。在这种特殊时期，对许多家长来说，网上学习是一种斗争，这对我们所有人来说真的很难。一边教书一边在家上课当然是一个挑战，我能理解一些家长是非常挣扎的。整个隔离和在线学习让我更容易获得更多的时间，因为我在校的时候，我每天来往于课堂或者去其他的地方花了我太多的时间。但是在家，我完全不需要这样。上下一节课就是打开一个新的标签。嗨，我回来了。首先，远程学习并不容易，但现在有了一点起色。我通常早上上课，然后锻炼，因为我的游泳队会在周二和周四开Zoom会议，但有时我只是一个人训练。欢迎参加乔治敦大学2020年学位授予仪式。我的父母和姐姐都回到了印度。他们想要参加我的毕业典礼，现在都在网上办了。所以我想念他们。但没关系。这是我们为一个更安全的社会所做的一部分承诺。现在我要拨穗了。一、二、三，毕业快乐！
