外国人吃辣条（外国人吃辣条视频）

Mark:  What have you been up to, Jingjing?

马克：最近忙什么呢，京晶？

Jingjing:  Things have been a little hectic at work.

京晶：最近有点忙乱。

Mark:  I'm sure you can manage.  Anyway, there are just a few weeks before the holiday.  Would you like a snack?  I ordered these online and haven't tried them yet.

马克：我相信你能搞定呢。对了，还有几周就是假期了，你想来点零食吗？我在网上订了一些，不过还没试吃。

Jingjing:  So, you want me to be your guinea pig?  Let me see.

京晶：所以你想让我当你的豚鼠（试验对象）？给我看看 

Mark:  You can read more of the Chinese words on the packaging than I can.  I just know that 辣条 means spicy stick.

马克：你比我更能读懂更多包装上的英文。我就只知道“辣条”的意思是很辣的小棍

Jingjing:  Haven't you seen the videos about this?

京晶：你没看过这些东西的视频吗？

Mark:  There are lots of videos about snack food.  They kind of run together after a while.

马克：有很多关于零食的视频。看一会儿过后它们就混到一块儿分不清了。（看上去雷同）

Jingjing:  You'd remember these videos.  Anyway, these snacks are so spicy that your mouth hurts for half an hour after eating one.

京晶：你得记住这些视频。对了，这些零食特别辣，以致于吃一个之后你的嘴能疼半小时。

Mark:  Well, that doesn't sound very appetizing.

马克：这听着好像不怎么有食欲啊。

Jingjing:   Actually, the ones you have here aren't the spiciest. There are several levels, up to toxic—or crazy spicy.

京晶：事实上，你手头的这款不是最辣的。有好几个辣的档次，最高是毒辣或者变态辣。

Mark:  Sorry, Jingjing.  I wasn't trying to trick you.

马克：不好意思，京晶。我没想着要捉弄你的。

Jingjing:  That's ok.  I'd be glad to try one of these, but I usually avoid spicy food.

京晶：没事的。我也很高兴能尝试其中一款，不过我通常是避免吃辣的。

Mark:  Well, since I accepted the package on my way out of the house today, I'm eager to see what they taste like.

马克：那，既然我今天在出门时收到了包裹，我迫不及待想尝一尝它们到底是什么个味道。

Jingjing:  Why don't you take one of these white chocolates as a backup.  After you've tried the spicy stick, white chocolate can help soothe your taste buds.

京晶：你为什么不带上这些白巧克力以防万一呢.  你试过辣条以后，白巧克力会帮助安抚你的味蕾。

Mark:  That's cool.  Thanks, Jingjing.  Well, here goes.

马克：这法子不错。谢谢京晶。那就来一条了。

Jingjing:  How is it?

京晶：怎么样？

Mark:  It's spicy, but not too spicy.  Now I'm curious about the super spicy ones.

马克：是辣的，但没有太辣。现在我特别好奇那种超级辣的是什么味道呢。

Jingjing:  Suit yourself.  It's better to stick with real food, in my opinion.

京晶：随你便吧。我觉得，最好还是吃能填饱肚子的食物吧。

Jingjing:  How goes it this week, Mark?

京晶：这周过得怎么样，马克？

Mark:  Pretty good.  Hey, I saw a few of those videos about people eating super spicy sticks.

马克：还不错呢。我看了一些人们吃超级辣辣条的视频。

Jingjing:  Were they funny?

京晶：好玩吗？好笑吗？

Mark:  I guess, in a viral video sort of way.  Each one of those videos just shows someone taking a bite of a spicy stick and then reacting to how spicy it was.

马克：从流行性视频的角度来看，每一个都表现了某个人稍微尝了一口辣条，然后对有多辣做出反应。

Jingjing:  There's one I saw of a foreigner who speaks fluent Chinese.

京晶：我看到一个是一个中文特别溜的老外。

Mark:  Yeah, I saw one too.  I could understand most of what he was saying.  If it were me, and I ate something that was way too spicy, I'd probably forget to speak Chinese and go back to English.

马克：是呢，我也看到一个。我能明白大部分他说的。如果是我吃了太辣的东西，我可能会忘记说中文直接跳回英文了。

Jingjing:  Ha ha.  It's a bit to maintain, if you're showing your reaction to something that was crazy spicy.

京晶：哈哈。有点装，如果你在表现你吃了某种变态辣的东西后的反应是这样的话。

Mark:  I know, right?  If it's really beyond what you can bear, how can you keep your selfie stick steady?

马克：我知道，可不是吗？如果真的超越了你的承受力。你怎么能还保持着你的自拍杆儿那么稳呢？

Jingjing:  And, if it's not so bad that you lose control, it's no big deal.  Is that it?

京晶：而且，如果你就算是失控了也没什么大不了的，对吗？

Mark:  Hmm, I guess I'd rather see real suffering on a video, not fake suffering.

马克：我倒是宁愿看一些真实的苦不堪言，而不是演的。

Jingjing:  Look at how desensitized you are because of internet content.

京晶：你看看这些网络的东西让你有多脱敏。

Mark:  It does take a lot to shock me.

马克：确实也让我非常震惊。

Jingjing:  So, you're convinced that the spiciest of the spicy sticks is not too big of a deal?

京晶：所以，你被说服了（相信了）就算是是超级辣的辣条其实也不算个什么事儿？

Mark:  Well, it doesn't look like that much fun.

马克：看上去不是那么好玩嘛

Jingjing:  And, it's probably too late for you to make your own video about it.  The fad is going to be over soon.

京晶：也是你再做一个自己的视频的话可能有点晚了。这股热潮就快过去了。

Mark:  I'll use my pocket money to satisfy my sweet tooth.  That reminds me, do you have any more of those chocolates?

马克：我要用我的零花钱来满足我的甜口，这提醒了我，那些巧克力你还有吗？

Jingjing:  Here, help yourself.

京晶：这儿，自己拿。
