参考译文

柠檬味的饮料

女士们,先生们!早上好。今天上午我打算讲一讲我们将在两个月后投放市场的一种新产品。它的名字叫“新鲜时刻”,它是一种有柠檬味道的饮料。

好,我们将从投放该产品的背景开始,然后描述一下新产品本身。最后,我将列出在广告和销售活动中突出的卖点。我想,如果你们不反对,我们将提问放在最后……

现在说第一点,就像你们所有人了解的一样,过去两年在系列饮料的市场方面,我们有一个空白点。我想我们都同意市场上应该还有全新柠檬味道饮料的一席之地。

第二点,市场调研表明越来越多的消费者正将软饮料掺和烈性酒一起饮用。因此,换言之,市场本身已扩大。

我们必须强调一下,这种产品瞄准的是年轻的、高收入的职场人士的消费市场,而不是柠檬水的传统消费者。在这一点上,我们必须考虑包装和设计的重要性。如果你一会儿看录像,你将发现我们的容器和标签以及口号已经都改了。

最后要说的一点是,让我们看一下该产品主要的引人注目之处。尽管价格较高,它将与其他现有的牌子进行很好的竞争,它的设计比现在任何与它竞争的产品更时尚。附带地说一下,该产品的味道更加真实和自然。卡路里含量也低。

好吧,在结束前,让我把重点再总结一下。我们有可尔奥特,一种新设计理念,瞄准一个相对年轻的和高收入群体。它设计为既可以单独饮用,也可以跟酒精性饮料或鸡尾酒混合饮用。它以瓶装出售,这意味着价格要比一般饮料高一点儿。但更好的口感和包装设计应该会让它在现在的市场上具有很大优势。

好吧! 这就是今天我要说的一切。谢谢你们听我的介绍。现在如果有任何问题,我很乐意回答。

普通感冒、流感和新型冠状病毒

流感和普通感冒都是呼吸系统疾病,但它们是由不同的病毒引起的,因为这两种疾病有相似的症状,单凭症状很难区分它们。一般来说,流感比普通感冒更严重,症状也更严重,感冒比流感温和不会导致严重的健康问题。

●发烧或感觉发烧/发冷

● 咳嗽及喉咙痛

● 呼吸急促或呼吸困难

● 疲劳

这并不是所有可能的症状,如果有任何其他严重的或与您有关的症状,请拨打 120 或提前到您当地的应急设施。

Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage you’ve read.

(F) 1. Colds and flu do not result in serious health problems.

After-reading Activity Think Critically

参考译文

德国封城

西蒙·哈尔是一位德国女作家,曾经在中国生活过五年。“我希望打破西方世界和媒体的偏见,向德国受众介绍我见到的真实的中国。”

不过就在她计划带这本书参加书展时,疫情袭击了全世界,于是她转而记录德国在抗疫中的点点滴滴,并反过来分享给中国读者。

德国是在三月下旬开始陆续封城的。“最开始我们晚上九点会打开窗子,大家一起为医护人员鼓掌”,哈勒说。“还有人演奏音乐给大家听。对很多人来说,这更像一场游戏。”

比待在家里更难忍受的,是物资紧缺。不知道为什么,厕纸一度被抢购个精光。“有一段时间,德国厕纸稀缺程度堪比黄金。我们还听说在邻国有的地方缺红酒和有机蔬菜。”

德国人一般不太习惯戴口罩,而且疫情初期口罩也不够用,还是靠从中国的进口才渡过了难关。媒体上报道,中国口罩质量不过关,但至少哈勒确定自己用的中国口罩质量没问题。

与中国不一样的是,德国各地政府一直在犹豫究竟要不要全员戴口罩。最终,绝大部分州政府的态度都是鼓励,而非强制。

与中国一样的是,德国人也得待在家里远程上班。这对哈勒来说当然是好事,可以节省不少时间和精力。但对一些不能在线办公的人来说不是好事,很多人因此失业。

医院里缺消毒液,就是护士的消毒液也不够用,有些病人就从护士或别的病人那里去偷;不过护士们还是保持着友好和专业去服务每一位病人。哈勒不禁称赞,他们才是真正的英雄。随着疫情逐步缓解,德国也进入了复工的节奏。哈勒觉得自己似乎刚经历了一场社会实验。等疫情过去后,她希望能继续写作,有机会的话还希望能来中国采访。

“我对中国有着深深的感情。我起初来中国,是受到传统文化的吸引,但接触多了,我爱上了现代的中国。”
