Waking up in the morning is tough, and sometimes an alarm clock just isn't enough to jolt you out of a blissful slumber.
早上起床是件难事,有时候单凭闹钟无法将人们从香甜的睡梦中唤醒。
Luckily, snoozers in Japan now have a better alternative - an energy-inducing phone call from a fisherman at sea.
幸运的是,日本那些瞌睡虫现在有了更好的选择--让人元气满满的海上渔民的来电。
Fisherman Japan, an organization whose purpose is to make fishing cool again, recently launched an interesting wake-up call service aimed at people who have trouble waking up in the morning.
最近,以让捕鱼再次变酷为己任的组织“日本渔民”针对那些晨间起床困难户推出了一项有趣的叫醒服务。
Called Fisherman Call, the service literally has Japanese fishermen from the Sanriku region call registered users at a specified time to wake them up and strike up a short conversation that is sure to get them out of bed and boost their energy level for the entire day.
这项名为“渔民电话”的服务其实就是让来自三陆地区的日本渔民在特定时间打电话叫醒注册用户,和他们进行简短的交谈,确保他们离开被窝,使他们一整天都能精神焕发。
Fisherman Call is a free service. All you have to do is register online and provide your name, phone number and the time you would like to be called by the fisherman.
“渔民电话”是一项免费服务。人们只要在网上进行注册,并提供姓名、电话号码和想要渔民致电的时间即可。
Most of the fishermen provided by Fisherman Call wake up at the crack of dawn, and complete most of their daily work by 6 am, so however early you plan on waking up, they'll probably be able to help you do it.
大多数参与“渔民电话”的渔民在破晓时分就醒了,清晨6点前就已完成大部分的日常工作,所以无论你计划多早起床,他们基本上都能帮你做到。
