【趣味雅思】TED名人演讲稿：12岁的APP开发者 点课台前言：雅思听力对于很多烤鸭来说都是一道难关，大家都在苦苦思索，怎样的雅思听力。今天，点课台老师给大家整理了TED演讲，附演讲稿与视频，希望可以帮助到正在备考的考生。TED是美国的一家私有非盈利机构，该机构以它组织的TED大会著称，这个会议的宗旨是“用思想的力量来改变世界”。大家在锻炼雅思听力的时候，也可以学习一下里面的主角们的思维模式，论述方法，希望还能对大家的雅思写作有所启迪。 I’ve always had a fascination for computers and technology, and I made a few apps for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. I’d like to share a couple with you today. 我一直都对计算机与科技很入迷， 我研制了一些适用于Iphone, iTouch以及iPad的应用。 今天，我想与大家分享一些我研发出的应用。 My first app was a unique fortune teller called Earth Fortune that would display different colors of earth depending on what your fortune was. My favorite and most successful app is Bustin Jieber, which is ??? (Laughter) ??? which is a Justin Bieber Whac-A-Mole. 我最先研制出的应用是一个叫Earth Fortune的运势测试器， 它能根据你的运势 呈现不同颜色的地球图形 我个人最喜欢、也是最成功的应用叫Bustin Jieber 它是一个---(笑声) 它是一个贾斯汀·比伯攻击器 ( Whac-A-Mole原意为“打地鼠”游戏) I created it because a lot of people at school disliked Justin Bieber a little bit, so I decided to make the app. 在学校里， 我的很多同学都不太喜欢贾斯汀·比伯， 所以我决定开发这样一个应用。 So I went to work programming it, and I released it just before the holidays in 2010. 于是我就开始写这个程序， 并且在2010年圣诞假期和新年来临之前发布了这个应用。 A lot of people ask me, how did I make these? A lot of times it’s because the person who asked the question wants to make an app also. 很多人都问我，是怎样开发出这些应用的? 很多情况下，那些问这个问题的人， 其实也想开发应用。 A lot of kids these days like to play games, but now they want to make them, and it’s difficult, because not many kids know where to go to find out how to make a program. 如今，很多的孩子都喜欢玩游戏， 但是，现在他们也想制作游戏。 这是很困难的， 因为很多孩子并不知道 怎样找到制作软件的方法。 I mean, for soccer, you could go to a soccer team. For violin, you could get lessons for a violin. But what if you want to make an app? And their parents, the kid’s parents might have done some of these things when they were young, but not many parents have written apps. 打个比方，你想学踢足球，那你可以加入一支足球队。 想学小提琴，你可以报个小提琴班。 但如果你想开发一个应用呢? 父母们年轻的时候 也许踢过足球、或者学习过小提琴 但没有多少父母写过应用吧! (Laughter) (笑声) Where do you go to find out how to make an app? Wel
