英语翻译
Smoking is not only tolerated in most of Asia,it is still fashionable.And for millions of smokers here,nothing confers greater status than a pack of American or European-brand cigarettes.No gift is more appreciated in Vietnam than British-made ‘555’ cigarettes.In China,the choice is Marlboro.Among the gentry of Thailand,it is Dunhill.
Status appears to matter far more than taste.‘There is not a great deal of evidence to suggest that smokers can taste any difference between the more expensive foreign brands and the home-made cigarettes,” said Simon Chapman,a specialist in community medicine at the University of Sydney,in AUSTRALIA.“The difference appears to be in the packaging,the advertising.”
吸烟在亚洲大部分地方不仅是可以忍受的,而且是时尚的.对于亚洲数以百万计的瘾君子来说,没有比一包美国或欧洲品牌的香烟更能彰显地位的东西了.在越南,最受推崇的礼物是英国产的555牌香烟.在中国,万宝路是最佳选择.而泰国贵族们最喜欢的香烟则是登喜路.
香烟的地位似乎远比其味道更重要.“并没有大量的证据表明吸烟者能够尝出那些昂贵的外国货与国产的香烟有什么不同”,西蒙·查普曼说,他是一位在澳大利亚悉尼大学研究社会医学的的专家,“他们之间唯一的不同似乎就是包装,和广告”.
