在线学习就是一场教室革命，但在种类庞杂的信息中，如何利用好这个资源，还需要书呆子来给你讲讲。别瞧不起书呆子，学渣将来都要给人打工。

- And then, in 2006, I met that guy. His name is Ze Frank.
- 然后，在2006年，我遇见了这个家伙。他叫泽·弗兰克。
- I didn't actually meet him, just on the Internet.
- 其实我们没有真正见面，只是在网上。
- Ze Frank was running, at the time, a show called "The Show with Ze Frank," and I discovered the show,
- 当时他在做一个名叫“泽·弗兰克秀”的节目，我发现了这个节目，
- and that was my way back into being a community learner again. Here's Ze talking about Las Vegas:
- 从此我便回归了学习社团。下面是泽·弗兰克在介绍拉斯维加斯：
- Las Vegas was built in the middle of a huge, hot desert.
- 拉斯维加斯建于一片广阔炎热的沙漠中心。
- Almost everything here was brought from somewhere else -- the sort of rocks, the trees, the waterfalls.
- 这里的一切几乎都是从别处运来的--像这些岩石，树木，瀑布。
- These fish are almost as out of place as my pig that flew.
- 这些鱼出现在这儿，就像猪会飞一样奇怪。
- Contrasted to the scorching desert that surrounds this place, so are these people.
- 这一切与周围酷热的沙漠形成了鲜明的对比，这里的人也一样。
- Things from all over the world have been rebuilt here, away from their histories,
- 世界各地的景观在这里重建，失去了历史的沉淀，
- and away from the people that experience them differently.
- 人们对它们的感受变得单一。
- Sometimes improvements were made -- even the Sphinx got a nose job.
- 有时景观还会被改进--比如斯芬克斯（狮身人面像）竟然隆鼻了。
- Here, there's no reason to feel like you're missing anything.
- 这里应有尽有，你不会感觉失落。
- This New York means the same to me as it does to everyone else.
- 这里的纽约在你我眼里都是一样的。
- Everything is out of context, and that means context allows for everything: Self Parking, Events Center, Shark Reef.
- 一切都脱离了原有的环境，意味着这里的环境可以包容一切：自助停车，活动中心，鲨鱼礁。
- This fabrication of place could be one of the world's greatest achievements, because no one belongs here; everyone does.
- 拉斯维加斯的建造，也许是世界上最伟大的成就之一，因为无人属于这里，而人人都属于这里。
- As I walked around this morning, I noticed most of the buildings were huge mirrors reflecting the sun back into the desert.
- 今早我四处闲逛的时候，我注意到大多数建筑物就像巨大的镜子一样将阳光反射到沙漠里。
- But unlike most mirrors, which present you with an outside view of yourself embedded in a place, these mirrors come back empty.
- 但它们又与镜子不同，因为镜子会反映出你和你周围的景象，而这些建筑反映的只是一片虚无。
- Makes me nostalgic for the days when you could see the pixels in online video.
- 让我回想起那些旧时光，当时的在线视频居然还能看出像素点。
