教材:大力水手
课程主题:多吃菠菜有好处。(Spinach is good for you.)

课程大意:尽管菠菜不如糖果、冰激淋美味,但它富含你体内所需的维他命和矿物质,能让你的肌肉像舰艇上的炮弹一样大爆发。总之想要打败恶棍赢得美女,多吃菠菜吧!

课程原文:Sure, it doesn’t taste as good as candy, ice cream or opium, but it’s full of essential vitamins and minerals that’ll make your muscles explode like battleship cannons. If you want to triumph over the bullying Blutos of the world and win the affections of your own lovely, leggy Olive Oyl, pound a can of spinach at least once a day. Or put it in your corncob pipe and smoke it, like everybody’s favorite ornery, mumbling sailorman. Toot toot!

课程总结:看看美国职业棒球联盟的类固醇丑闻,你就知道大力水手是怎样影响了一代人让他们不惜一切想要变得更强健。需要指出的是女主角奥利弗也许是第一个厌食症患者。

总结原文:You only need to look at the steroid scandal rocking Major League Baseball to see that Popeye raised a generation that is willing to use performance enhancers. Also, it should be pointed out that Olive Oyl was the first anorexic sex symbol.
