Now let's focus on comics in the 1950's. Early in the decade sales were down, so publishers started looking for some new angle to get their readers interested again. They found what they were looking for with horror comics --- stories about ghosts and demons that were often graphically violent.
Before long, most of the major publishers were printing horror comics --- but it all came to an end a few years later. You see, there was a psychologist named Frederic [FRED-rick] Wertham who claimed that comic books --- the horror books in particular --- were a bad influence on children and turned them into juvenile delinquents. Wertham even wrote a book called Seduction of the Innocent that showed specific scenes from comics that he thought were a particularly bad influence on kids.
Wertham wasn't the only one down on comics. The United States Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency also released a report very critical of comics. The result of all this fuss was the creation of the Comics Code Authority in 1995. This is a self-censoring body created by the publishers. Essentially, for a comic book to be approved by the code, it had to be free of the blood and gore that was usually depicted in most horror comics, and evil could never triumph over good. Children had to be shown that crime did not pay.
Well, if comic sales were bad in 1950, things got even worse in 1955. Many small publishers actually went out of business. But the industry rebounded by introducing a new lineup of superheroes, characters like Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four. Now, I've brought with me today some comic books from this era to pass around. They're from my own personal collection, so please be extra careful when handling them.

精解译文

【听力精解】

其实这篇听力我很感兴趣（动漫迷飘过），日系漫画的色情、欧美漫画的血腥暴力我想大家早有耳闻，所以这篇听力也深刻地揭示了这些漫画对青少年心理造成不良影响的现象。

里面有些名词提一下，horror comics是(以暴力、耸人听闻题材为主的)惊险连环漫画

Seduction of the Innocent 是 诱惑纯真

the Comics Code Authority漫画代码权威

Spider-Man （真人版挺吓人的）蜘蛛侠

Fantastic Four（想起了么，这翻译是漫画）神奇四侠！

【参考译文】

现在让我们专注于漫画在1950年。早在十年的销售下降了，所以出版商开始寻找一些新的角度再次得到他们的读者感兴趣。他们发现，他们在寻找什么恐怖漫画---图形往往暴力的幽灵和恶魔的故事。用不了多久，大多数主要出版商印刷恐怖漫画---但几年后走到了尽头。你看，有名为弗雷德里克[弗雷德里克] Wertham心理学家声称，漫画---特别是恐怖书籍---对儿童造成不良影响，他们变成少年犯。wertham甚至写了一本书叫诱惑无辜表明特定的场景，他认为是对孩子的影响特别恶劣的漫画。wertham是不是唯一一个对漫画。美国参议院对青少年犯罪的小组委员会也发表了一份报告非常关键的漫画。这一切麻烦的结果是在1995年创作的漫画代码管理局。这是一个自我审查的机构，由出版商创建。从本质上讲，代码被批准为一本漫画书，它是免费的，通常是在最恐怖漫画描绘的血腥，邪恶永远无法战胜过好。孩子们被显示，犯罪没有支付。好吧，如果漫画的销售在1950年的坏，事情变得更糟，在1955年。许多小出版商实际上歇业。但业内人士的反弹，通过引入一个新的超级英雄，像蜘蛛侠和神奇四字符阵容。现在，我带了今天这个时代的一些漫画书，通过周围。他们从自己的个人收藏，所以请在处理时要格外小心。

祝大家每天进步一点点！
