We're celebrating the new design of our website. Yeah, up until recently, the general lifespan of websites was between two and three years but now they're saying it's fallen to one year. Now Richard, we've had our website since 2006.我们正在庆祝我们网站的新设计。是的，直到最近，网站的一般寿命是两到三年，但现在人们说已经缩短到一年了。Richard，我们的网站自 2006 年以来就一直存在。

Wow! Wow! Yeah, so we must be doing something right to be still going. Yes, there's been a few changes, mainly under the hood as it were. What does that mean? Well, things that the users wouldn't really recognise, things like HTML5 is the new technology that's taken over and also the biggest thing recently is HTTPS.哇！哇！是啊，我们能坚持这么久，说明我们确实做对了一些事情。是的，期间有一些改动，主要是在“引擎盖下面”。那是什么意思？嗯，就是用户不太察觉的东西，比如 HTML5 已经成为新主流技术，而最近最大的更新就是 HTTPS。

What do you mean by that? Well, most people will see the little green padlock at the top of the browser bar, which means that the website is safe, basically. OK. Now, for our new design, we've concentrated on a few major areas, haven't we? And I suppose number one has to be the overall look, the overall design.你是什么意思？嗯，大多数人会在浏览器地址栏看到一个小小的绿色锁头，那基本上意味着这个网站是安全的。好的。现在，对于这次新设计，我们专注于几个主要方面，是吧？我想第一点就是整体外观，整体设计。

Well, I suppose I wanted a fresher, more modern look and for me the starting point was I wanted an image of England or Britain and we didn't want the typical London look, you know, the double-decker buses and all that kind of stuff. But you wanted something green.Jackie，这部分主要是你负责的。你当时想要呈现什么呢？嗯，我想要更清新、更现代的外观。对我来说，起点是我想呈现英国的形象，但我们不想要典型的伦敦风，比如双层巴士那些东西。而你想要绿色的感觉。

Well, I wanted something to represent England's green and pleasant land, so the countryside and I think it's a reflection of our culture and it says something about us. Yes, it's not just the colours though, is it? It's also the navigation and things like that. People are often saying how user-friendly our site is and I really wanted us to stay with that.嗯，我想呈现“英国绿野和美丽乡村”的形象，我觉得那能反映我们的文化，也能代表我们自己。是的，不过不仅仅是颜色，对吧？还有导航之类的设计。人们经常说我们的网站非常易用，我真的希望我们继续保持这一点。

And I think we've... I hope we've done that. Yes, it's less cluttered, isn't it? We've just got the one sidebar now rather than two. I think originally, Richard, we were very concerned when people turned on their computers that all the information, the important information, was there to be seen straight away.我觉得我们……我希望我们做到了。是的，现在简洁多了，对吗？我们现在只有一个侧边栏，不再是两个。我记得当初，Richard，我们很担心用户打开电脑时，所有重要的信息能不能第一时间看到。
