Speaking of inventions and discoveries, I just learned that an eminent* scientist in Ohio has developed a pill that contains all the nutritive value of three complete meals. In addition to providing us with the vitamins and minerals we need daily, this pill will nourish and satisfy. I hate to disparage such a laudable achievement, but to me it seems like a most objectionable discovery. Rather than a scientific triumph, I'd be inclined to label it as an egregious* blunder, a scientific disaster, a laboratory fiasco. Is there anyone in his right mind who thinks that a pill can replace the pleasures of devouring hot corn bread, masticating on a thick steak, biting into crisp french fries, or attacking a chocolate sundae? I'm afraid that this is one pill I'll have to eschew from chewing.

说到发明和发现，我刚刚了解到在俄亥俄的一名知名科学家发明了一种富含三餐全部营养价值的药片。并且可以提供我们每天所需的维生素和矿物质。我不想贬低这种值得赞赏的成就（不想浇冷水），但是对我来说，这就像是一种最令人反感的发现。与其认为只是一个重大的科研成就，我更认为这是一个糟糕到极点的愚蠢，一场科学灾难，一起实验惨败。有那个脑子没问题的的人会觉得一粒药片就能取代大嚼玉米面包，肉感十足的牛排，香脆的薯条和巧克力圣代的快感呢？恐怕这会是我想要避开咀嚼的一种药片了。
