Pre-class and in-class components课前及课堂内容

The course consists of the following two components:

本课程包括以下两部分内容

  • pre-class课前内容
  • in-class课堂内容

You are currently viewing the start of the pre-class component.

你正在浏览的是课前内容。(待修改)

The in-class component enhances the lessons taught in the pre-class components. That said, the pre-class lessons on their own still provide a valuable educational experience.

课堂内容可以巩固课前内容的知识点。也就是说,课前内容具有宝贵的指导意义。

Hardware and network requirements硬件和网络要求

Although this course is optimized for a laptop or desktop, you may take the course on a tablet or phone. If you are taking the in-class component, please note that you'll type a lot.

推荐笔记本电脑或台式电脑,因为本课程已针对二者进行了优化,您也可通过平板电脑或手机来学习本课程。提醒,课堂内容包括练习,需要大量打字。

You need an internet connection to take the course. You cannot download the course. The course is not available on tangible media.

本课程无法保存到本地,需要在线学习。本课程不提供有形媒体。

The course contains a few short videos, all of which are optional viewing. If you want to skip the videos, then you can take the course on a low-bandwidth internet connection.

本课程包括若干段视频,可自行决定是否观看。如果选择跳过视频,可以使用较差的网络连接。

Optional units 选学单元

We've marked a few units as optional. This material isn't essential, though you'll probably find the material useful.

课程中一些单元为选学。尽管这些内容并非必学,但可能会对您很有用。

译者注:

1. abbreviation缩写词与acronym缩略词(这两个词的中文翻译不重要!!!)

abbreviation指为了省略原文长度而缩短的词,原文既然可以是一个词也可以是多个词,如

        KyoAni京阿尼 - Kyoto Animation京都动画

        adj - adjective(形容词)

acronym特指由各词首字母组成的缩略词,如

        OPEC - Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries(欧佩克,石油输出国组织)

        Laser - Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation(通过受激辐射光扩大)

2. active/passive voice主动/被动语态,这里的voice语态,有译文翻译成了时态

3. fun fact: bandwidth - 带宽,broadband - 宽带,正经直译。上上周《经济学人》封面词汇是broadbandit网络强盗,new word!
