英文正文
Vincent: I hate to say it, but what the papers are saying may be right. No powder is as good as mother's milk. If a mother stops using her own milk and only uses the powder, it could actually hurt the baby.
Sam: Hm. I see your point, but can we please stick to the main subject here? We did a lot of research to make sure our powder had the biggest amounts of all the things a child needs.
Vincent: You said the biggest amounts. The biggest amounts don't always mean the right amounts. New research says each area has different environmental conditions. Our powder may be good for children in the places where we tested, and not so good in other areas.
Grace: So what you are saying is that our powder really can hurt children?! This is terrible. Well, I can see that suing is a bad idea. Let's see how the alternatives stack up against each other; we take the product off the market right away, or leave it there and try to quickly make special powders for each area.
Vincent: he results of the second option are easy to foresee. It will take too long to do the research. There are too many areas. More children may be hurt while we wait, so someone will blow the whistle on us for sure. It's better not to jump the gun.
Grace: Sam, which option do you think is our best bet?
