now piracy off the coast of Somalia has been a threat to international shipping for much of the last decade. Sailors have been held hostage， often for months 1）on end， and the activities of the pirates have cost the shipping industry billions of pounds.
The behind-the-scenes story has been much in demand with journalists from around the world being sent to the region to find those involved. But their searches have led them into a pirate industry of a very different kind， with money being handed over to 2）imposters， who’ve never been near the high seas.
在最近十年的大部分时间里，索马里近海的海盗行为已经成为国际航运的一大威胁，船员被劫持为人质，通常被关押数月之久，海盗的活动已给航运业造成了数十亿英镑的损失。
世人都很想了解海盗背后的故事，世界各地的记者被派往该地区寻找海盗的故事。但他们的苦苦搜寻却让他们遭遇了一个与海盗行为截然不同的劫掠产业，金钱则到了那些从未靠近过公海的冒牌海盗手中。
（In the news： And a hijacking on the high seas now. Somali pirates…）
（In the news： We are getting new details about what took place on a hijacked yacht…）
Reporter： These are real stories about real Somali pirates， the modern-day 3）highwaymen of the sea. It’s a hot story， and journalists are on the hunt for pirates to interview.
Pirate： （In documentary） We have taken the cargo of， you know， American people， and there are some security guys， who came there， you know， with guns. They shoot us. They came， you know， some of our colleagues are dead.
Reporter： The hunt starts here in Nairobi， home to a big Somali community. This place has now become the operational headquarters of the men who are pirating the pirates. Confused？ Let me explain.
This is Adnan. He lives in the 4）slums of Eastleigh， the part of Nairobi where many Somalis have settled. These slums are among the poorest in Kenya. It might look like a place without hope， but it’s from here that Adnan and others have built a small cottage industry， an industry that had been fooling some of the best journalists the world over. And their business？ Pretending to be pirates.
Adnan： We pretend because we have the talent. They go to the boss， they say they need pirates. The boss came to us and tell us the white men have come， they need the pirates， you know？
Reporter： And what’s your daily fee？ Adnan： Daily fee， $200.
Reporter： Wow， that’s a lot of money.
Adnan： Sixteen thousand in Kenyan money.
Reporter： Meet Bashir， not his real name. It’s his pirate name. He was a little harder to pin down. Unlike Adnan， his career has been going a long time.
（新闻报道：公海上正在发生一起抢劫，索马里海盗……）
（新闻报道：我们获得了发生在被劫持游艇上的新细节……）
记者：这些是真正的索马里海盗的故事，他们是当代版的海上劫犯。这是热门话题，记者们四处搜寻海盗进行采访。
海盗：（记录片中）我们拿了，你知道，美国人的货物，然后一些保安人员来到这里，你也知道，带着枪。他们向我们开枪，你知道吗，他们来了，我们一些同伴死了。
记者：搜寻从肯尼亚首都内罗毕附近一个大型索马里社区开始。这里现在成了盗版海盗的运营总部。听不明白吗？让我来解释一下。
这位是亚丹，他住在内罗毕的伊斯来尔贫民窟。很多索马里人都把家安在这里，这里是肯尼亚最贫穷的地区之一。这里看起来像是一个毫无希望的地方，但正是在这里，亚丹及其他人营造了一个小作坊式的产业，愚弄了一些世界上最优秀的记者。他们做的是什么生意？假装海盗。
亚丹：我们扮演海盗是因为我们有才华。他们去找老板，说他们想见海盗，老板就来找我们，告诉我们，那些白人来了，他们需要海盗。你明白吗？
记者：你扮演一天收多少钱？亚丹：一天收费200美元。
记者：哇，那可是很大一笔钱。
亚丹：相当于一万六千肯尼亚币（先令）。
记者：我们来认识一下巴希尔，这不是他的真名，只是他扮演海盗时用的名字。要找到他可不是那么容易，与亚丹不同，他做这一行已经有很长时间了。
This is a documentary， which has reportedly been shown in up to 18 different countries. In it， Bashir pretends to be one of Somalia’s most feared pirates. He didn’t just impress this filmmaker. He has given many interviews in many different 5）guises over the years. In this edition of Time magazine， he’s interviewed again. In it， the journalist says， “Bashir bared his black rotted teeth every time he smiled. Bashir was a fisherman. The pirates wanted to hire him because he knew how to swim， a valuable skill he could teach other recruits. He told me， ‘We are the ones out on the water taking all the risks and suffering.’”
Reporter： They gave me a quick run-through about how they trick Westerners.
Adnan： Well， we go to a place like slums. We travel to a place―there is a place called Kiamaiko where they， you know， people slaughter goats. That is a place we go to.
You know the Western guys， you know， what I’ve seen that’s they think Africans are fools， but we have discovered that we are not fools. We are so clever than the Western people―we Africans， we are so clever―that we are fooling them， but they think they are fooling us.
Reporter： And as I was about to say goodbye to Adnan， his phone rang.
Was that your next job？
Adnan： Yeah.
这是一部记录片，据称它已经在多达18个国家播出。在片中巴希尔扮演的是索马里最让人畏惧的海盗。他不但给这部片的制片人留下深刻印象，多年来，他还以不同的伪装身份出现在很多不同的采访中。在这一期的《时代》杂志中，他再次接受采访。记者在文中说：“巴希尔每次笑时，都会露出他黑黑的烂牙。巴希尔是渔民，海盗们想雇佣他是因为他会游泳，这是很重要的一项技能，他可以教其他新手。他告诉我：‘我们是在海上经受风险及磨难的人。’”
记者：他们给我上了一堂关于如何欺骗西方人的速成课。
亚丹：嗯，我们会去贫民窟这样的地方，我们会到一个叫基米科的地方，人们在那里屠宰山羊，这就是我们要去的地方。
你知道那些西方人，你知道吗，我所见到的是，他们以为非洲人是傻瓜，但我们发现自己并不傻，我们比西方人聪明得多――我们非洲人，我们是多么的聪明――我们在愚弄他们，但他们还以为是他们在愚弄我们。
记者：正当我想跟亚丹说再见的时候，他的电话响了起来。
你的下一个工作机会来了吗？
亚丹：是的。
