為什么你總是抱怨美國的食物？在臺灣的美國餐廳是地道的美國食物嗎

來聽今天的講解:

六點了，我們去吃東西吧。

B: Alright.

好。

A: What would you like?

你想吃什么？

B: I don't really care. Whatever you want.

我不是很在乎，看你吧。

A: Well, what do you feel like?

你想吃什么嘛？

B: It doesn't matter. I'm sick of the food here. So it doesn't really matter.

無所謂，我厭惡這里的食物，所以真的無所謂。

A: Why do you always complain about the food here?

為什么你總是抱怨這里的食物？

B: Are you kidding? American food is lousy.

開什么玩笑，美國食物太難吃了

A: It isn't lousy. There is a lot of variety. You are just prejudiced.

不難吃啊，有各式各樣的選擇。你就是有偏見。

B: I'm not prejudiced. It's lousy.It's all beef and potatoes and pizza. And sandwiches and beef and burritoes.And burritoes and beef and potatoes and fried chicken.I'm sick of it!

我才沒有偏見，是很難吃。全是牛肉、馬鈴薯和披薩。三明治、牛肉和墨西哥軟餅。墨西哥軟餅、牛肉、馬鈴薯和炸雞。我厭惡透了。

A: You know, I have three Taiwanese friends in town.And they all complain about the food. It's really strange.And we even have a Chinese restaurant here.

我在鎮(zhèn)上有三個臺灣朋友他們也都抱怨食物，真是奇怪。而且我們這里甚至就有一家中國餐廳。

 B: That isn't real Chinese food. It's American Chinese food. It's lousy.

那不是地道的中國菜，那是美式中國菜，很難吃。

A: Well, what about American restaurants in Taiwan? Are they real American food?

那么臺灣的美國餐廳呢？是地道的美國食物嗎？

B: Yes, they are. They are exactly the same as they are here.But the Chinese restaurants here aren't as good as in Taiwan. So, you see? It's not fair.

是的，和這里的完全一樣。但是這里的中國菜沒有臺灣的好吃。你看吧，不公平。

A: You Taiwanese are always complaining about food. You whine too much.

你們臺灣人總是抱怨食物難吃，你們太啰唆了。

B: It's because the food in Taiwan is so good.We miss it. We even dream about it at night.

那是因為臺灣的食物太好吃了。我們很懷念，晚上都還會夢到呢！

A: Hmm. But in this town we have all kinds of ethnic restaurants.We have Greek restaurants, Italian restaurants,Mexican restaurants, and Japanese restaurants.So you should be able to find something you like.

但是在鎮(zhèn)上有各個民俗餐廳：有希臘餐廳、意大利餐廳、墨西哥餐廳和日本料理，所以應該可以找到喜歡吃的。

B: No, it's impossible. But if you want to have dinner,why don't we go to the Japanese restaurant? I feel like some good noodle soup.

不可能。不過你要吃晚餐，那我們就去吃日本料理吧，我想吃好吃的湯面。

A: Alright, that sounds good to me. I'm flexible. I'm not a big baby.

好啊，聽起來不錯。我都可以，我又不是大娃娃。

B: Listen, Jason.Until you have the food in Taiwan, you will never understand. It is really very very good.
