all about 这本书讲的是什么内容？ so we're in the Land of Glamoria 故事设定在格拉摩里亚大陆 a cluster of magical islands 那是一片魔法群岛 where every creature of myth is real 所有神话生物都真实存在 and our 2 heroes Christopher and Anya 我们的两位主角克里斯托弗和安雅 discover that one of the people they love most 发现他们最亲近的一个人 has been kidnapped 被绑架了 so they set sail on the ship they never fear 于是他们驾驶无畏号启航 in order to try to perform the tasks they need to do 为了完成必须做的任务 to get her back 救她回来 they need to go to a giants island 他们得去巨人岛 ride in the dangerous race of thieves 参加危险的盗贼竞速赛 steal the Golden apple 偷取金苹果 and it'll take them 这一路上 right to the very edge of their courage and bravery 会极大考验他们的勇气和胆识 oh wow incredible 哇，太精彩了 last time you were on our purple sofa 上次你坐我们紫色沙发的时候 you were telling us all about the Poison King 你跟我们聊了《毒药之王》 and you said that was your favorite book to write 还说那是你最喜欢写的一本 what about the Neverfare 那这本《纳韦费尔》呢？ I'm gonna sound like I'm repeating myself every time 我每次说这话都像在重复自己 I think this was my new favorite 这是我新的心头好 because I loved 因为我喜欢 writing things that I myself would love to do 写我自己想做的事 I want to jump into a huge VAT of giant custards 我想跳进一大缸蛋奶糊里 I want to ride a golden deer through a beautiful 我想骑着金鹿穿过美丽的 dangerous city 危险城市 get to conjure the things that you long for yourself 能创造你自己渴望的事物 incredible well I was just gonna ask you 太棒了，我刚想问你 where do you get your inspiration from 你的灵感来自哪里 you know when you want to yeah 就是你想...对吧 ride into a vasive custard 跳进蛋奶糊的时候 is it because those are the things you want to do 是不是因为这些是你想做的事 it is exactly 完全没错 and one of the things I love is do you get 我还很喜欢的一点是，你会不会 do research of things that you would adore to do so 为你想做的事做调研 for instance for this book I went skydiving 比如写这本书时我去跳伞了 because there's a lot of flying in the book 因为书里有很多飞行场景 and I wanted to get the 我想感受 feel and taste and texture 那种感觉、体验和细节 and so I went 所以我就去 skydiving from 14,000ft 从14000英尺的高度跳伞 so you free fall for an entire minute 你会整整自由落体一分钟 oh my goodness we can see the pictures just there 天呐，我们能看到那边的照片 what was that feeling like 那是什么感觉？ how did you get perseposizing 你怎么描述那种感觉？ it something 那种感觉 oh you do and the wind just rushes past you so fast 风在你耳边飞速呼啸而过 it is a little bit unlike 这和我以前体验过的 anything I've ever tried before 所有事都不太一样 ah incredible 太厉害了 and so 那 what other kind of research do you have to do to 你写这些故事还要做什么 for these stories 其他调研吗？ so I love finding the mythical creatures that 我喜欢找那些适合放进书里的 that you might want to have in a book 神话生物 so there might be 比如可能有 a golden deer with golden horns 长着金角的金鹿 there might be 也可能有 a blackbird who can tell you why secrets 能告诉你秘密由来的黑鸟 I go through archives and libraries to find them 我会去档案馆和图书馆找资料 ah incredible now 太棒了，现在 something really and exciting 有件非常让人激动的事 is that the Incredible Creatures 就是《神奇生物》系列 books are going to be turned into films 要改编成电影了 aren't they what can you tell us about that 对吧？能和我们说说吗？ so I am writing the film script with Disney 我正在和迪士尼合作写剧本 and it has been such a thrill 这真的太激动人心了 to try to take the heart of the book 把这本书的核心内容 and change it into film 改编成电影 and to use all the film things that films can give us 还能用上所有电影的独有表达方式 so you know dance scenes action scenes music beauty 所以你懂的，舞蹈、动作场面、音乐、美感 it has been such a Deloitte 这真的太棒了 yeah 对 it must be quite tricky to take a moment from the page 把书里的内容搬上荧幕肯定不容易 into kind of thinking of the film and the movie 还要构思成电影画面 exactly so I guess a book gives you front row 没错，读书能让你直接 access to someone's imagination 感受作者的想象力 and what a film gives you is the possibility to use 而电影则有机会呈现 huge 宏大的 Spectacular and Splendor so we're really trying to 壮观华丽的效果，我们正努力 lean into that 做好这一点 yes incredible 对，太厉害了 and this is the year of reading isn't it 今年是读书年对吧 and you're taking part 你也参与了 in the queen's Christmas present 女王圣诞赠书项目 what's that about so 能讲讲是什么吗 the Queen is giving every year 6 and P6 in the nation 女王每年会给全国六年级学生 a book for Christmas and they've chosen 送一本圣诞书，今年选了 impossible creatures 《不可思议的生物》 which I am so thrilled about 我特别开心 so every year 6 will be getting one 每个六年级学生都能拿到一本 and I love the idea that across the country 我很喜欢这个想法，全国 every child knows that they have in common 每个孩子都有 the same story 同一本故事书 yes brilliant 对，太棒了 I'm sure children are going to love that 孩子们肯定会喜欢的 and just quickly before you go 你走之前再问个小问题 give us some top tips for story talents 给写故事的新手点建议吧 so the thing I tell young people is if you get stuck 我跟年轻人说，卡壳的时候 ask questions 多提问题 every single book has at its heart the question what if 每本书的核心都是“如果…会怎样” so make yourself a list of what 你可以列一堆 if questions and they could be anything like what 这样的问题，比如如果 if every Thursday we could read each other's minds 每周四都能读心会怎样 who would we have to avoid on Thursdays 周四我们要避开谁 and then that question 然后这个问题 becomes another question and becomes a question 会引出更多问题 and becomes a story incredible 最后就变成故事了，太赞了 I'm going to try playing that game later Catherine 凯瑟琳，我之后要试试这个方法 thank you so much for joining us on years on 非常感谢你来参加我们的节目 I'm sure we'll
