One Man’s Meat is Another Man’s Poison

在決定什么能吃而什么不能吃的時候，人們往往變得不合情理。

?

?

?

People often became irrational when deciding what can or cannot be eaten.

?

?

?

比如，如果你住在地中海地區(qū)，你會把章魚視作是美味佳肴。

?

?

?

For an example, if you living in the Mediterranean，you will think octopus as a delicious food.

?

?

?

同時不能理解為什么有人一見章魚就惡心。

?

Meanwhile, have no idea about why there ? are someone feel nausea when looking at octopus.

?

另一方面，你一想到動物油炸土豆就會反胃，但這在北方許多國家卻是一種普通的烹任方法。

?

?

?

On the other hand, you feel regurgitation when realizing animal oil frying potatoes, but this is a common cuisine in many northern countries.

?

?

?

不無遺憾的是， 我們中的大部分人，生來就只吃某幾種食品，而且一輩子都這樣。

?

?

?

It’s a pity that most of us born to eat some kinds of foods, and keep this situation whole life.

?

?

?

沒有一種生物所受到的贊美和厭惡會超過花園里常見的蝸牛了。

No more creatures can exceed the nails which ? are easy to find in garden on achieving praises and nuisances.

?

?

蝸牛加酒燒煮后，便成了世界上許多地方的一道珍奇的名菜。

?

Nails turn into a precious and famous ? dish in many places all over the world after cooked in wine.

?

有不計其數(shù)的人們從小就知道蝸?？勺霾?。

?

?

?

There are uncountable people know that nails can be made into dishes since their childhood.

?

?

?

但我的朋友羅伯特卻住在一個厭惡蝸牛的國家中。

?

?

But my friend Robert lives in a country ? that hates nails.

他住在大城市里的一所公寓里，沒有自己的花園。

?

He lives in a flat in a big city, and don’t ? have his own garden.

?

多年來，他一直讓我把我園子里的蝸牛收集起來給他捎去。

?

For many years, he always told me to ? collect the nails in my garden and send to him.

?

一開始，他的這一想法沒有引起我多大興趣。

At first, his opinion didn’t attract my ? interest.

?

?

后來有一天，一場大雨后，

Then one day, after a deluge,

?

?

我在花園里漫無目的散步，突然注意到許許多多蝸牛在我的一些心愛的花木上慢悠悠的蠕動著。

?

?

?

I wandering in my garden for no purpose, and suddenly I noticed that many nails creeping slowly on my treasured flowers and trees.

?

?

?

我一時沖動，逮了幾十只，裝進(jìn)一只紙袋里，帶著去找羅伯特。

I was seized with a momentary impulse and ? caught dozens of them, putting them in a paper bag, and inviting Robert with ? them.

?

?

羅伯特見到我很高興，對我的薄禮也感到滿意。

Robert felt happy to meet me, and also ? satisfied to my meager present.

?

?

我把紙袋放在門廳里，與羅伯特一起進(jìn)了起居室，在那里聊了好幾個鐘頭。

?

?

?

I put the paper bag in the vestibule, entered the living room with Robert, and chat with him for several hours there.

?

?

?

我把蝸牛的事已忘得一干二凈，羅伯特突然提出一定要我留下來吃晚飯。

?

?

?

I was already fall the nails behind my mind, until suddenly Robert invoked me to having dinner,

?

?

?

這才提醒了我。蝸牛當(dāng)然是道主菜。

?

that mentioned me. Of course the nails ? are a entrée.

?

我并不喜歡這個主意，所以我勉強(qiáng)跟著羅伯特走出了起居室。

I didn’t like this idea, so I went out of ? the living room with Robert reluctantly.

?

?

使我們驚愕的是門廳里到處爬滿了蝸牛：

What made us surprised is that all the ? vestibule are creeping nails:

?

?

它們從紙袋里逃了出來，爬得滿廳都是！

They escape from the paper bag, and ? wriggled all over the hall!

?

?

從那以后，我再也不能看一眼蝸牛了。

?

Since then, I can’t look at the nail ? again.
