My favorite TV show? “The Twilight Zone.” I especially like the episode called “The Printer's Devil.”
我最喜欢的电视剧是什么？是《迷离时空》。我特别喜欢其中的一集叫做《魔鬼印刷工》。
It's about a newspaper editor who's being driven out of business by a big newspaper syndicate – you know, a group of papers owned by the same people.
讲述的是一个报刊编辑被大型报业财团赶出业界的故事，你知道的，就是众多报刊归于一人垄断的财团。
He is about to commit suicide when he is interrupted by an old man who says his name is Smith.
他在要自杀的时候被一个名叫史密斯的老男人救了下来。
The editor is not only offered 5,000 dollars to pay off his newspaper's debts, but this Smith character also offers his services for free. It turns out that the guy operates the printing machine with amazing speed, and soon he is turning out newspapers with shocking headlines.
这个编辑不仅偿还了他5000美金的报纸债务，而且这个史密斯还义务的为他工作。结果史密斯以惊人的速度操作着印刷机，很快报纸上就出现了令人震惊的头条。
The small paper is successful again. The editor is amazed at how quickly Smith gets his stories – only minutes after they happen – but soon he is presented with a contract to sign.
这家小报刊再次获得成功。这名编辑对史密斯迅速的报道速度感到震惊，只在事件发生几分钟之后他就知道。但是很快他收到一份需要签署的合同。
Mr. Smith, it seems, is really the devil! The editor is frightened by this news, but he is more frightened by the idea of losing his newspaper, so he agrees to sign.
史密斯先生仿佛是一个魔鬼！这名编辑对这点感到害怕，但是他更害怕失去他的报刊，所以他签字了。
But soon Smith is reporting the news even before it happens – and it's all terrible – one disaster after another.
但是史密斯甚至在新闻未发生之前就开始写报道了，全是非常可怕的新闻，一场灾难接着又一场的发生。
Anyway, there is a little more to tell, but I don't want to ruin the story for you. I really like these old episodes of the Twilight Zone, because the stories are fascinating. They are not realistic. But then again, in a way they are, because they deal with human nature.
总之，故事的内容还有很多，但是我不想剧透了。我真的喜欢这部《迷离时空》，因为里面的故事很吸引人。它们不是真实的故事，但是在某种程度上讲出了人类的本性。
