Before this, and this, and this, and this. Ahhh, that sound. People in Britain and Ireland woke up like this.
在这个，这个，这个还有这个出现之前，啊，那个声音！英国和爱尔兰人都是这么起床的yO3(7jjz@Ml。
That's right, being an alarm clock used to be a job and they were called Knocker Uppers.
没错Aab9#,i]7-Wu27PckE。当闹钟曾经是种职业，人称“叫醒工”S9mHfG!Oou[5。
We're traveling back in time for this one, so let's get a historian in here.
为此我们还得从从前说起，所以我们特地请来了一位历史专家2f+%ebWk7yP9FllZZF。
Do I sit here, or...? Yup Yeah, fantastic.
我坐这儿吗？是的(@=4oWRN7IR]J*。好的，太好了u2;7m5F_d1dyZ_-d!W0。
Oh, sorry I'm late the Knocker Upper didn't call.

OK, let's see if we got this right.
那我们来看看这些东西我们是不是都弄对了~=f#eX2&z9。
From the early 1800s to the 1960s, waking people up was a paid job? Yes.
从十九世纪早期到上世纪六十年代，真的有叫大家起床这种职业吗？没错96MjFy^Usz。
And this was done with a bamboo pole? Oh yes, most certainly.

This is the age where people started to work in factories.
就是从那个时代起，人们开始去工厂上班LDHR6~dEM*&2J%。
They’ve got to be up early for their shift.
为了倒班他们必须早早起床k!GoT1vszR。
And, of course, most people are on minimal wages. They haven't got alarm clocks in their house, consequently, there's no one to wake them up.
当然了，大部分人的薪水都非常少，家里买不起闹钟，那就没人叫他们起床啦4RnD7);OG3vTG;Ht.8。
So that's where the knocker up, or the Knocker Upper came in.
叫醒工就是这么来的1s=GROG3|=U。

See, in big industrial cities like London, Birmingham and Manchester, Knocker Uppers used poles to reach the windows.
话说，在伦敦、伯明翰和曼彻斯特这种大城市里，叫醒工就用长杆敲大家的窗户.r5Dy-A3BCxa.uSst~。
And these poles had a hook or knob at the end, which made them pretty effective.
这些杆子顶端都带有钩子或者手柄，敲窗的时候就非常管用t9B[~7x@3sD%s^(。
You could scratch that handle, a bit like nails going down a blackboard. Wakey-wakey.
用那个刮玻璃就像指甲划过黑板的声音j#lmkYTvX557y%N@+5S。起床啦起床啦b6Cey=,~~*L1Q*m[L。
Other Knocker Uppers, mostly women, used peashooters to aim at the windows. Oigh! Or not.
其他叫醒工，大部分都是女性，则用用豆枪往窗户上吹豆子mp1qwya.g45)Xf-fttas。啊，还是别了]fW_^JeWba.。
But why not just shout? Wake up! Wake up! Shhh. Uggh. Well, you do have to keep the neighbors in mind.
但大家为什么不直接用喊的呢？起床啦！起床啦！嘘！啊ap*IA&ZE]Oh8Jw。好吧，是得考虑一下邻居们的感受_H@3z,Zr#oGGzQ。
So the big question is who knocks up the Knocker Upper?
所以，最大的问题是，谁来叫醒这些叫醒工呢？
The evidence suggests that the Knocker Upper just didn't go to bed.

Sometimes the Knocker Upper might attune himself to be able to wake up a three a.m.
有时，他们可能也会调节自己的生物钟让自己在凌晨三点的时候醒来c_#er!-TLi。
Aggh, mystery solved. Yay!
哈，谜团解开了8S&NJNyn+U(.。耶！
