文本解析
1.Yeah,I'd used that before,but in this project,I had time to play around with different patterns for the biscuits and finding how I could add fruit and vegetables to make them a more appetising colour,and I was really pleased with what I managed to produce.是的,我以前用过(三维打印),不过在这次 的项目中,我有时间反复尝试不同的饼干图案,并想办法添加水果和蔬菜,让饼干的颜色看起 来更加美味可口,最后的成品我非常满意。’d为had 的缩写形式,此处用过去完成时,表示说 话者在做这个项目之前,已经使用过3D打印了。play around with意为“反复琢磨,自由尝试…… 的排布”。be pleased with意为“对……满意”。manage to do指“成功做成(困难的事)”。 该句中的 how 和what都引导宾语从句。
2.It must've been a great feeling to make something appetising out of bits of old bread that would've been thrown away otherwise.用一些本来会被扔掉的陈面包做成美味佳肴,这种感觉一定很棒。 must have done表示对过去发生的事的肯定推测。otherwise 意为“否则,要不然”,这里使用 would have done 结构,表示与过去事实相反的虚拟语气,即实际上陈面包被回收利用了,没 有被扔掉。
3.When the label's smooth,the food is fresh and then when you can feel bumps on the label,that means the food's gone bad.It started off as a project to help visually impaired people know whether food was fit to eat or not.标签表面光滑,说明食物新鲜;如果感觉到标签有凹凸不平的地方,说明食物 已经变质。这种标签源于一个项目,用于帮助有视觉障碍的人士分辨食物是否适合食用。go bad指“(食物)变质”。whether 在 know 之后引导宾语从句。fit 在这里是形容词,意为“适 合的”。
4.And coming back to food,maybe it'd be possible to use it for other things besides freshness.Like how many kilograms a joint of meat is,for example.回到食品的话题,除了新鲜程度之外,或许还可以 用这种标签来显示其他内容。比如一块肉重多少千克。joint 在这里是“一大块肉”的意思。
5. Lots of people I know have been buying that type of food for years now.很多我认识的人多年来一直 在购买这类食物。I know为省略了关系代词who 的定语从句,修饰主语people。句子谓语 动词用了现在完成进行时,表示动作从过去某一时间开始,一直持续到现在,并可能仍要继续 下去。
6.One thing I've noticed is the number of branded products related to celebrity chefs-people watch them cooking on TV and then buy things like spice mixes or frozen foods with the chef's name on ..I bought something like that once,but I won't again.我发现与明星厨师有关的品牌商品越来越多——人们在 电视上看到他们做菜,然后就会购买印有厨师名字的混合调味料或冷冻食品……我买过一次这样的食品,但以后再也不会买了。branded products指“名牌商品”。celebrity chef指的是通过电视、 广播或者书籍等来展示烹饪技术的厨师。I won't again 即I won't buy something like that again, won't之后的动作和前半句动作相同,因此被省略了。
7.Yeah-I bought a ready-made spice mix for chicken which was supposed to be used by a chef I'd seen on television,and it didn't actually taste of anything.是啊,我买了一种现成的鸡肉混合调料,
据说是电视上看过的一位大厨用过的,但实际上一点味道都没有。ready-made 是形容词“已 经做好的,现成的”。which 引导定语从句,修饰spice mix。be supposed to do的意思是“被(人们) 认为是……”。chef 后面的I'd seen on television为省略了关系代词 who 的定语从句。taste of指 “有……味道”。
8.Well,they might have the name of a restaurant,but actually they're a cooking facility just for delivery meals-the public don't ever go there.But people aren't aware ofthat-it's all kept very quiet.嗯,它 们可能挂着餐厅的名头,但实际上是一个仅提供外送餐饮的烹饪场所,顾客无法去那里(堂食)。 但人们并不知道这一点,一切都是秘密进行的。might 这里并非may的过去式,而是表示不太肯 定的推测。be aware of sth.指“意识到某事”。keep sth.quiet指“不声张,将某事保密”,这里 使用了被动语态。
