你平時(shí)都怎么吃早餐的?邊走邊吃、帶到辦公室吃、還是專門去早餐店吃呢?據(jù)說,現(xiàn)在很多美國人都選擇到辦公室坐在桌前吃早餐,還有些人開著車就順手把早餐給吃了。這兩種早餐形式分別叫做deskfast和carfast。
For many people in postmodern America, breakfast isn't breakfast anymore. It's now "carfast" or "deskfast."
在后現(xiàn)代的美國,很多人的早餐已經(jīng)不是傳統(tǒng)意義上的早餐了,而演變成了“車餐”或“桌邊早餐”。
Increasing numbers of Americans are leaving home in the morning and waiting until they reach their destination before eating breakfast at their office desk— a trend recently dubbed, "desk-breakfast" or "deskfast."
越來越多的美國人現(xiàn)在都選擇早晨到辦公室以后在自己辦公桌邊享用早餐,這種趨勢叫做deskfast(桌邊早餐)。
Some hungry folks can't wait to get to work to eat their breakfast, so they consume it en route, making it a carfast.
還有一些人出門的時(shí)候已經(jīng)很餓了,于是他們選擇在開車上班的路上就把早餐給解決了。這樣的早餐就叫做carfast(車餐)。
