[00:00.04]Unit 13 Taipei 101 第13單元 臺(tái)北 101 [00:08.57]On the 47th floor the custodian emptied the two black garbage cans. Glen watched her for a minute as he stopped to catch his breath. 47樓的管理員正在清理兩個(gè)黑色垃圾桶，葛蘭停下來喘口氣時(shí)看了一會(huì)兒。 [00:18.20]He was almost halfway there. "Don't look down," he thought to himself. 他差不多爬到一半了，心里想著不要往下看。 [00:24.38]It had taken him three hours to climb to the 48th floor of the 101 building. 他花了三個(gè)小時(shí)才爬到101大樓的48層， [00:30.34]It would only take him 10 seconds to get back if he wasn't careful. 但萬(wàn)一不小心掉下去卻只要十秒鐘。 [00:35.44]It was a good day (if there ever was a good day to risk one's life) to scale the tallest building in the world. 今天蠻適合(如果冒生命危險(xiǎn)有所謂適合日子的話)攀登這棟全世界最高的建筑物。 [00:43.45]There was a slight breeze to keep Glen cool. 輕輕的微風(fēng)讓葛蘭覺得很涼爽。 [00:47.16]Glen saw the ad in the newspaper. It read "Needed: Brave person to climb Taipei 101." It was a publicity stunt. 葛蘭看到報(bào)紙刊登的廣告上寫著：“征求攀登臺(tái)北101的勇士?！边@是一場(chǎng)經(jīng)過宣傳的驚人表演。 [00:57.22]Taiwan wanted the whole world to know about the newest tallest building in the world 如果臺(tái)灣想讓全世界都知道這棟世界上最高的新建筑的話， [01:02.44]and what better way to do it than with a daredevil stunt. 還有什么比找個(gè)不怕死的人來場(chǎng)驚險(xiǎn)演出更有效果呢? [01:07.32]So, there Glen was, now almost 99 stories high with the world watching. 所以葛蘭才會(huì)來到這里爬101，在全世界注目下，目前幾乎爬到第99層了。 [01:14.03]Never in history has someone performed such a feat. The crowds at the bottom cheered him on as he reached the top. 這樣一種英勇事跡如果完成，史上便是頭一遭。底下的圍觀群眾在他登頂時(shí)一片歡聲雷動(dòng)，替他加油鼓勵(lì)。
