英語(yǔ)大贏家:025 公共環(huán)境 Public Environment

天氣很好，媽媽讓阿美帶著丹尼爾去街上走走，緩解學(xué)習(xí)壓力。走在路上的時(shí)候，丹尼爾隨口吐口香糖，這引起了阿美的強(qiáng)烈不滿，隨即教育弟弟要維護(hù)公共衛(wèi)生。

(Daniel casually spits the gum. May feels angry.)

May: Daniel, you can't spit the gum everywhere.

Daniel: Come on, just a little piece.

May: Do you know how many people chew gum everyday?

Daniel: I have no idea.

May: Just in Beijing, people consume 300,000 pieces of gum every day.

Daniel: That's amazing.

May: If all the people spit out the gum like you, the whole world would become a big trash can.

Daniel: Come on, you are making too big deal out of this.

May: I just want to remind you to behave yourself.

Daniel: OK, dear sister, I see. This kind of thing will not happen again.

May: In order to meet the Olympics, we should pay attention to the protection of public environment.

Daniel: OK, Mom!

May: Hey, don't call me that.

（丹尼爾隨地亂吐口香糖。阿美感到很生氣。）

阿美：丹尼爾，你不可以隨處亂吐口香糖。

丹尼爾：哎呀，只是一小塊。

阿美：你知道每天有多少人嚼口香糖嗎？

丹尼爾：不知道。

阿美：僅僅是在北京，每天人們要吃掉300，000 塊口香糖。

丹尼爾：真令人吃驚！

阿美：如果所有人都像你一樣隨地亂吐口香糖，整個(gè)世界將變成一個(gè)大垃圾箱。

丹尼爾：你說(shuō)得也太夸大其辭了吧。

阿美：我只是提醒你要規(guī)矩些。

丹尼爾：好的，親愛的姐姐，我知道了。再也不會(huì)發(fā)生這種事了。

阿美：為了迎接奧運(yùn)會(huì)，我們都應(yīng)該注意維護(hù)公共環(huán)境。

丹尼爾：好的，老太婆！

阿美：嘿，不準(zhǔn)這么叫我。
