英语悠选脱口秀 第82期:便便味道消除喷雾

 　　讲解

　　Today’s key word is Spray

　　Spray 喷雾

　　Spray is a lot of small drops of water which are being thrown into the air.

　　Here is an example:

　　The moon was casting a rainbow through the spray from the waterfall.

　　月亮在瀑布溅起的水雾上照出了一道彩虹。

　　今天我们要说的这件事，可没有彩虹那么美。话说，When I was watching videos yesterday, an ad suddenly caught my eye. Here it is. 怎么样，是不是还挺好听的。But, did you notice(注意) the sound at the beginning?很熟悉有没有!

　　I bet you hear the sound almost every day when you flash the toilet. 没错，就是冲马桶的声音。所以，这到底是个啥广告呢？The product in this ad is called Poo-pourri. 看完这个广告，不禁感叹，这个产品的发明简直是个奇迹，这样一个产品，做这么魔性的广告更是让人脑洞大开。一起来听听具体是个啥产品。By the way, 我们绝对没拿广告费哦！

　　“So, How do you make the world believe your poop（便便）doesn’t stink(臭臭) or in fact that you never poop at all. Poo-pourri ! Poo-pourri is the before you go toilet spray that is proven to trap（陷阱） those embarrassing odors（尴尬的气味） at the source（根源）. Simply spritz(喷水)Poo-pourri in the bowl to create a foam(泡沫) the water surface, that actually traps the odors（气味） in their porcelain¹ prison（陶瓷监狱）. And when your little astronauts（宇航员） splash down(降落) and make contact with the foam（泡沫）, they release Poo-pourri’s pleasant aromas（芳香）. So all those around you can smell is a refreshing² bouquet³ of essential oils（花香）. Yes, it is a real product.

　　想象出来这是个什么产品了吗？上厕所之前，喷在马桶里后再释放你的便便的时候，就不会发出臭臭的味道了。I don’t know what’s your thought on this,but I am impressed. It is funny, amazing and ridicules⁴.

　　看完后，广告歌和画面在脑海中不断循环。

　　So the question is--- do you want to trythis Poo pourri?

　　Tell us！
