Daylight saving time夏令时

Yes, on Sunday morning. We put them forward one hour.

是的，周日早上。我们把时钟往前调一个小时。

Exactly. At two o’clock it becomes three.

没错。两点就变成三点。

Mine either. I am half asleep until Wednesday.

我也是。要到周三我都是半睡半醒。

Right. It stays light until nine now.

对。现在到九点天还亮着。

Me too. My grandfather still says it is a bad idea.

我也是。我爷爷还说这是个坏主意。

I read that too. They keep one time all year.

我也看到了。他们全年用一个时间。

The idea is very old — over a hundred years.

这个想法很老了——一百多年了。

Something like that. Less light needed, less money spent.

差不多。需要的照明少，花的钱就少。

The kitchen clock does not. I change that one every year.

厨房的钟不会。那个我每年都手动调。

In my flat, the oven is an hour behind until June.

在我家，烤箱的时间到六月都慢一个小时。

Yes, then it is right when you wake up.

对，这样你醒来时就是准的。

Do not worry — the calendar on the computer updates itself.

别担心——电脑上的日历会自己更新。

Fair enough. It decided last year — we were late for lunch.

有道理。去年它就做了主——我们午饭迟到了。

It does. And in October we get our hour back.

确实如此。而且十月我们能把那一小时补回来。
