你平時都怎么吃早餐的?邊走邊吃、帶到辦公室吃、還是專門去早餐店吃呢?據說,現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."
在后現代的美國,很多人的早餐已經不是傳統意義上的早餐了,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候已經很餓了,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)。
