聽力原文:
Pringles is a brand of potato and wheat snack produced by Procter & Gamble. It is one of the world’s most-recognized and best-selling snacks. Pringles came onto the market in 1968. The name Pringle came from an employee opening a telephone directory and seeing the name Pringle Drive in it. They are sold in over 100 countries and generate revenue in excess of $1 billion. Pringles cannot be called potato chips or potato crisps for legal reasons, because each Pringle contains only 42% of potato. They are in fact a mixture of potato and wheat. They are popular because of their diversity of flavours, uniform saddle shape (called a hyperbolic paraboloid) and a container that keeps them in one piece. The cremated remains of the inventor of the tubular can was buried in a Pringles can at his request. The Pringles slogan is: “Once you pop, the fun don't stop.”
品客是保潔公司生產的薯片品牌
。品客也是世界上最知名,最暢銷的零食品牌之一 。品客于1968年進入市場 。品客一詞起源于一名雇員,他翻開了電話薄,并在其中發現了“Pringle Drive”這一地名 。品客在全球100多個國家售賣,收入超過了10億美金 。由于法律原因,品客不能被稱之為馬鈴薯片或是炸薯條,因為品客中只含有42%的土豆 。事實上,它是小麥和土豆的混合物 。品客的多種口味,馬鞍形的薯片形狀(叫作雙曲拋物面)以及將其整合在一起的盒子都是品客流行的原因 。按照他本人的要求,發明人火化之后盛殘留物的管狀盒放進了品客的盒子當中 。品客的標語是:“一口之后,樂趣不停” 。譯文屬可可英語原創,未經允許,不得轉載 。
