聽力原文及翻譯
A: Okay, Rosie, shall we try to get some ideas together for our presentation on diet and obesity?
A:好的,Rosie,我們一起想一些關于飲食和肥胖的演講創(chuàng)意吧?
B: Sure.
B:當然。
A: I can talk about the experiment I did to see if people can tell the difference between real sugar and artificial sweeteners.
A:我可以談談我做過的實驗,看看人們是否能分辨出真糖和人造甜味劑的區(qū)別。
B: Where you gave people drinks with either sugar or artificial sweeteners, and they had to say which they thought it was.
B:你給人們喝加糖或人造甜味劑的飲料,他們必須說出他們認為是哪種。
A: Yeah, it took me ages to decide exactly how I'd organize it, especially how I could make sure that people didn't know which drink I was giving them. It was hard to keep track of it all, especially as I had so many people doing it, I had to make sure I kept a proper record of what each person had had.
A:是的,我花了很長時間才決定如何組織它,特別是如何確保人們不知道我給他們喝的是哪種飲料。很難跟蹤所有事情,尤其是因為有這么多人這樣做,我必須確保我妥善記錄每個人喝了什么。
B: So, could most people tell the difference?
B:那么,大多數(shù)人能分辨出區(qū)別嗎?
A: Yeah. I hadn't thought that they would be able to, but most people could.
A:是的。我沒想到他們能做到,但大多數(shù)人都能做到。
B: Then, there's that experiment I did, measuring the fat content of knots to see if the nutritional information given on the packet was accurate.
B:然后,我做了一個實驗,測量了面包中的脂肪含量,看看包裝上給出的營養(yǎng)信息是否準確。
A: The one where you ground up the nuts, and mix them with a chemical to absorb the fat.
A:就是把堅果磨碎,然后和化學物質混合以吸收脂肪。
B: Yes. My results were a bit problematic, the fat content for that type of knot seemed much lower than it said on the package. But I reckoned the package information was right, I think I should probably have ground up the knots more than I did. It's possible that the scales for weighing the fat weren't accurate enough, too. I'd really like to try the experiment again some time.
B:是的。我的結果有點問題,這種結的脂肪含量似乎比包裝上標的要低得多。但我認為包裝上的信息是正確的,我想我應該把結磨得更碎一些。稱脂肪的秤也可能不夠準確。我真的很想有時間再試一次這個實驗。
