Eztalk美語【97】烘焙咖啡豆的香味
At Billy's house
Jennifer: What in the world is that smell?
Billy: The aroma of roasting coffee beans.
Jennifer: Smells like you're baking something. What are those?
Billy: Green beans. They pop and turn brown when you roast them.
Jennifer: Cool! But isn't that a hot air popcorn popper?
Billy: This machine roasts the beans just right. If you roast them too long, or the temperature is too hot...
Jennifer: The beans will burn. I know. I've tasted burnt coffee before...yuck!

在比利家
珍妮花：那是啥味道？
比 利：烘焙咖啡豆的香味。
珍妮花：聞味道還以為是你在烤什么東西吃。這些是啥？
比 利：生咖啡豆。當(dāng)你烘焙它們的時(shí)候，它們就會(huì)爆開，并轉(zhuǎn)成棕色。
珍妮花：酷！但那不是一臺(tái)爆米花機(jī)嗎？
比 利：用這機(jī)器來烘焙咖啡豆正好。要是烘焙過久，或是溫度太高……
珍妮花：那么咖啡豆就會(huì)焦掉。我知道。我有喝過煮焦的咖啡……惡！
