自闭历程（2010）

Sir, Scottsdale Feedlot signed off on my cattle agitation study.
气味像是有一半牲口先签了名
Smells like half the herd signed it first.
不，教授，牲口不会签
No, sir. Cattle can’t do that.
我不需要你给我杂♥志♥，我已经订阅了

我讨厌派对，人那么多却没有一个听我说话
I hate parties. There are too many people and no one listens to me.

And they keep giving each other looks and I don’t know what they mean.
他们只是不舒服
They’re just uncomfortable.
大家不想听牲口的那些细节

我是泰德吉柏特
I’m Ted Gilbert, from
来自约翰韦恩的红河圈养场
John Wayne’s Red River Feedlot.
你好，我很高兴见到你
Hello, I’m very pleased to meet you.
我阅读了妳写的东西
Hell, I’ve been reading your stuff.
妳想实行那些事吗？
How’d you like to put it into practice?
我失去了设计师，但我需要新消毒池
See, I lost my designer and I need a new cattle dip.
妳办得到吗？
Can you do it?
相当简单，但我要在5天内提出计划
It’s pretty simple, but I got to present plans in five days.
当然可以
Sure!
这很聪明，妳是怎么想出来的？
This is very clever. How did you come up with this?
我只是把看到的东西凑在一起
I just see things and put them together.
-你要多久才能… -这些是什么？
– So how long will it take you to… – And all this?
这是引导牲口进来的东西
That’s to lead the cattle in.
牠们很乐意跟着曲线走
They’re happy to follow a curve ’cause they think they’re going back
因为牠们以为要回到起点
to where they came from.
我全听妳的
Lf you say so.
是的，你们要多久才能做好？
I do. So how long will it take you to do it?
这之前我还有两，三个
Well, I have two or three more before this.
但我明天就要
But I need it by tomorrow!
大家都是明天就要
Everybody needs it tomorrow.
妳盯着我，我也不会更快
I won’t work any quicker with you watching.
我想看
Well, I wanna watch.
好吧
Okay.
你好，恬普？
Hey, Temple?
这位是牲口杂♥志♥社的雷德哈里斯
This here is Red Harris from Cattle magazine.
幸会，哈里斯先生
Very nice to meet you, Mr. Harris.
是的，雷德明天不能参加开幕典礼
Yeah, Red, he can’t make the grand opening tomorrow,
所以我先让他瞧瞧
so I thought we’d give him a sneak preview.
能让几头牛通过消毒池吗？
So, Temple, will you put some cattle through your dip while I’m here?
好的
Okay.
喂，打开栅门
Hey, open the gate!
如果赶牛的人在通道外慢慢向顺时针方向走，那么牛就会逆时针通过滑槽
So if the handlers walk slowly clockwise outside the chute, then the cow will walk counterclockwise through the chute.
看吧，牠们会跟着曲线走
See? They’ll just follow that curve.
牲口安静的走，以为跟着同伴们绕圈子
The cattle just keep calmly walking thinking they’re going in circles and following their buddies.
牠们很乐意跟着曲线走
And they’re happy to follow a curve
因为以为要回到来处
because they think they’re going back to where they came from.
牠们没事，因为有凹槽牠们知道不会滑
They’re okay because it’s grooved and they know they won’t slip.
所以当他们继续走时，重心会让他们平静地掉下去
So when they take the next step, their center of gravity makes them drop calmly into the dip
