Hello. Children's Engineering Workshops.
你好,儿童工程工坊。
Oh hello. I wanted some information about the workshops in the school holidays.
哦,你好。我想了解一些关于学校假期期间工作坊的信息。
Sure.
好的。
I have two daughters who are interested. The younger one's Lydia, she's four – do you take children as young as that?
我有两个女儿很感兴趣。小女儿莉迪亚,她四岁了,你们接受像她这么大的孩子吗?
Yes, our Tiny Engineers workshop is for four to five-year-olds.
是的,我们的小型工程师工作坊是为四到五岁的孩子开设的。
What sorts of activities do they do?
他们都做些什么活动?
All sorts. For example, they work together to design a special cover that goes round an egg, so that when it's inside they can drop it from a height and it doesn't break.
各种各样的。例如,他们共同设计了一种特殊的覆盖物,里面放着一颗鸡蛋,这样当他们把它从高处扔下来时它不会碎。
Well, sometimes it does break but that's part of the fun!
有时也会碎,但这也是乐趣的一部分!
Right. And Lydia loves building things. Is there any opportunity for her to do that?
没错。莉迪亚喜欢建筑。她有机会做吗?
Well, they have a competition to see who can make the highest tower. You'd be amazed how high they can go.
他们有比赛,看谁能造出最高的塔。你会惊讶于他们能造出多高的塔。
Right.
没错。
But they're learning all the time as well as having fun.
但他们在愉快玩耍的同时也在学东西。
For example, one thing they do is to design and build a car that's attached to a balloon, and the force of the air in that actually powers the car and makes it move along. They go really fast too.
例如,他们所做的一件事是设计和制造一辆附着在气球上的汽车,空气动力实际上驱动汽车向前移动。它们跑得也很快。
OK, well, all this sounds perfect.
好的,这一切听起来都很完美。
