雅艾爾：那是什么味道?

Don: We'll talking about a study on smell?

唐：我們將談?wù)摎馕兜难芯繂?

Yale: No,I smell something like perfume orairfresher.

雅艾爾：不，我聞到一股香水或是空氣清新劑的味道。

Don: Oh! You've probably smelled a fragrantcandle light there before we got start it. The scentis called green dragon. I have no idea what thatmeans, but I kind don't like it.

唐：哦!你大概聞到的是香薰蠟燭，我們開(kāi)始前點(diǎn)上的。這種香氣叫做綠龍。我不懂它是什么意思，但我有點(diǎn)不太喜歡它。

Yale: Well, you can have to put it out.

雅艾爾：那么，你可以把它撲滅。

Don: Why? The year got so stuffy and stay of the studio I thought it would be nice to light upthings a little.

唐：為什么?今年又是很悶的一年，整天得待在工作室里，我想點(diǎn)亮周?chē)氖挛镄那橐矔?huì)好點(diǎn)。

Yale: But that's just it, Don, there's no ventilation in here and the fumes comming from thatcandle are toxic.

雅艾爾：但是唐，問(wèn)題就出在這里，這里空氣不流通，蠟燭散發(fā)的氣味是有毒的。

Don: What are you talking about?

唐：你在說(shuō)什么?

Yale: Most fragrant wax candles are made from paraffin, which is a by product of petroleum.According to one study, burning paraffin candles emits toxins—a little like burning gasolineindoors.

雅艾爾：大多數(shù)蠟燭都是由石蠟做成的，而石蠟是從石油中提煉出來(lái)的副產(chǎn)品。一項(xiàng)研究表明，燃燒的蠟燭會(huì)散發(fā)毒素——類(lèi)似于在室內(nèi)燃燒汽油。

Don: Hold on. You are saying that my little sady candle is poisoning us?

唐：等等。你是說(shuō)我的蠟燭在毒害我們?

Yale: No. Burning a paraffin candle once in a while is OK because it's only emitting a smallamount of toxins. But it still pollutes the air. It's when you light a lot of candles all the timethat you run into bigger problems that can make you sick. So if you're really into candles, it'sbetter to use ones made from soy beeswax.

雅艾爾：不。短時(shí)間內(nèi)，蠟燭的燃燒是無(wú)害的，因?yàn)樗会尫派倭康亩練?，但還是會(huì)污染空氣。如果你一次性點(diǎn)許多蠟燭，并持續(xù)很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的話(huà)，你就麻煩大了，因?yàn)檫@會(huì)使你生病。如果你真的喜歡點(diǎn)蠟燭，最好使用大豆蜂蠟做成的蠟燭。

Don: Fine.So, do I still need to put out the candle?

唐：好吧。那么，我還有必要撲滅這只蠟燭嗎?

Yale: Pretty please.

雅艾爾：萬(wàn)分拜托。

Don: No problem.

唐：沒(méi)問(wèn)題。
