I Tested America's Worst 1-Star Fast Food · Joshua Weissman
Josh Weissman测试美国最差的一星快餐评价,看看这些评价是否真实。适合练习英语口语和听力。
I'm gonna come clean.
我打算把真相都说出来。
I've been giving the most brutal one-star reviews against fast food for years.
多年来,我一直在对快餐行业给出极其严厉的差评(即一星评价)。
The only reason was because I felt we deserved better food.
唯一的原因是我觉得我们理应享受到更好的食物。
Except everyone's a critic now.
只不过现在每个人都成了评论家罢了。
If you look at the reviews of any fast food restaurant across the USA, you'll see insane claims worse than anything I've ever said.
如果你看看美国各地任何一家快餐店的评价,你会发现一些极其荒谬的言论,其程度甚至超过了我说过的任何话。
That's why today I'm putting the absolute worst one-star fast food reviews to the test to see if they actually deserve that one star.
这就是为什么今天我要对那些评价最差(仅给了一星)的快餐评论进行实际测试,看看它们是否真的配得上那一星的评价。
Starting with El Zarape in Denver, Colorado.
首先从位于科罗拉多州丹佛市的 El Zarape 开始说起。
Now, why are we here?
那么,我们为什么会来到这里呢?
Supposedly, these are the best burritos in Denver.
据说,这些是丹佛最好吃的墨西哥卷饼。
But anybody who said that did not read Jenny L.'s review because she said, "Beware what you put in your mouth here.
但任何这么说的人肯定都没读过珍妮·L.的评论;她在评论中写道:“在这里吃东西的时候可得小心了。
They screwed up my food."
他们把我的食物搞砸了。
It's a pun.
这是一个双关语(即同一个词或短语有两种不同的含义)。
That's a good one.
这个真不错。
That's a good pun, I'll give you that.
这个双关语确实很妙,这一点我得承认。
Because look at this image.
因为请看这张图片。
That is scary.
那太可怕了。
That's a little scary, but it also kind of is peculiar to me.
这有点吓人,但同时也让我觉得有些奇怪(或:这种感觉既令人不安,又带有一种独特的奇妙感)。
If you read a little further because it says, "We heard that they had the best barbacoa in town,
如果你继续往下读,会发现上面写着:“我们听说他们家的烤肉是镇上最好吃的。
we went and ordered two pounds for the whole family."
我们去了餐厅,为全家人点了两磅的食物。
She says a lot of other things in this review, which I find really funny.
她在这篇评论里还说了很多其他的事情,我觉得那些都非常有趣。
But ultimately it's about this image, which is wild looking to me, but I feel like it's planted...
但归根结底,这一切都围绕着这张图片。在我看来,这张图片的画面非常“野性”(即充满自然、原始的感觉),不过我觉得这张图片其实是被刻意安排在那里的(也就是说,它的出现并非偶然)。
Because let's think about this.
让我们仔细想一想这件事。
She went in and she ordered, in bulk, barbacoa.
她走进店里,批量订购了烤肉(barbacoa)。
So that means you get a big plate of barbacoa and a big plate of tortillas.
也就是说,你会得到一大盘烤肉(barbacoa)和一大盘玉米饼(tortillas)。
And she said that in her review.
她在评论中确实这么说了。
And yet somehow there's a fully assembled taco...
然而,不知怎么的,一个完整的塔可竟然就这样“组装”完成了……
with a screw in it.
里面装了个螺丝。
How did that get there?
那东西是怎么跑到那里去的?
Detective Josh is on the case today and we're going to find that out.
今天负责调查此案的警探是乔希,我们会弄清楚真相的。
The next review seems equally hard to comprehend.
下一篇评论的内容似乎也同样难以理解。

says, "Ordered Bistec a la Mexicana and the food looked like they blended the bistec.
他说:“我点了墨西哥风味牛排(Bistec a la Mexicana),结果那道菜看起来就像是把牛排和其他食材混合在一起做成的。
Told the waiter about it, but didn't do anything...
我把这件事告诉了服务员,但他们什么也没做……
Not going to this place ever again."
我再也不会去这个地方了。
And then finally, Nicole T.
最后,妮可·T(Nicole T.)。
said, "Poor quality food and false advertisement on their website"...
他说:“他们提供的食物质量很差,而且网站上的广告内容也不真实……
No clue what the false advertisement is.
完全不知道哪里有虚假广告。
"Server was pretty rude about letting us know that they would charge extra for avocados.
服务器的态度非常粗鲁,他们竟然直接告诉我们:鳄梨需要额外收费!
