今天的這段對話,在討論劣質(zhì)奶粉,
談一談嬰幼兒奶粉事件,引起了什么嚴(yán)重后果
來聽今天的講解:
A: hey, there!
嗨,你好!
B: hello, Carl. Have you heard about the contaminated baby formula?
你好,你聽說嬰幼兒奶粉事件了嗎?
A: yes. Actually, I'm quite concerned about that. It's confirmed that 4 babies died and more than 6,200 infants nationwide have developed kidney stones after drinking the tainted formula.
是的。事實上,我很擔(dān)心。據(jù)證實,全國有4名嬰兒在飲用受污染的配方奶粉后死亡,6200多名嬰兒出現(xiàn)腎結(jié)石。
B: what a tragedy!
太慘了!
A: I remember the public outrage when it was discovered that 171 infants had suffered malnutrition because of the ingestoin of inferior milk power in Fuyang City, Anhui Province in 2004.
我記得2004年在安徽省阜陽市發(fā)現(xiàn)171名嬰兒因攝入劣質(zhì)奶粉而營養(yǎng)不良時的公憤。
B: food safety has been a long-standing concern nationwide.
食品安全想來都為人們所關(guān)注.
A: well, I think this recent incident will have a far-reaching negative impact on the milk industry.
哦,我想這次奶粉事件肯定會重創(chuàng)奶制品行業(yè).
B: definitely, in the case of the tainted milk powder, for example, not only the offending company suffers losses, but the whole milk market suffers a sharp drop in sales.
毫無疑問,以毒奶粉為例,不僅違規(guī)公司遭受損失,整個牛奶市場的銷售額也大幅下降。
A: yes, you are right.
是啊.
B: but I don't know if it is only an isolated incident or whether it reflects a broader problem in the milk industry?
但是不知道這是個案,還是反映出整個奶制品行業(yè)的問題呢?
A: I guess it's an industry-wide problem, as 69 batches of baby formula produced by 22 companies have been found to be contaminated.
我想整個行業(yè)都有問題,22家企業(yè)生產(chǎn)的69批嬰兒奶粉都被查出有問題.
B: that's right. This will quickly undermine public confidence in the milk industry possibly for years to come.
是啊,今后幾年內(nèi),人們對奶制品行業(yè)都不會有什么信心了.
A: definitely! With the public disclosure, buyers' confidence seems to be waning.
肯定!隨著公開披露,買家的信心似乎正在減弱。
B: I think China's food industry needs a shake-up.
我想中國的食品行業(yè)需要重新整頓.
