這發生在哈佛大學.在去年的十月
: >In a biology class, the prof was discussing the high glucose levels found
: >in semen.
在生物課.教授鄭在討論精液中的葡萄糖含量高
: >A young female (freshman) raised her hand and asked, "If I understand,
: >you're saying there is a lot of glucose, as in sugar, in male semen?"
一個大一女生舉手發問."假如我了解了.你是說精液中葡萄糖.也就是糖的含量高?"
: >"That's correct", responded the prof, going on to add statistical info.
"對"教授回答.計續寫統計資料.
: >Raising her hand again, the girl asked, "Then why doesn't it taste sweet?"
女生又舉手發問"那為什麼嚐起來不會甜呢?"
: >After a stunned silence, the whole class burst out laughing, the poor
: >girl's face turned bright red, and as she realised exactly what she had
: >inadvertently said (or rather implied), she picked up her books without
: >a word and walked out of class... and never returned.
一陣沉默後.整個班級爆出大笑.可憐的女生臉都紅了.然後她知道她不小心說了什麼.
她拿起書頭也不回的走出教室
: >However, as she was going out the door, the Prof.'s reply was classic...
在她鄭要走出門口.教授的回答很經典.
: >Totally straight-faced he answered her question: "It doesn't taste sweet
: >because the taste-buds for sweetness are on the tip of your tongue and
: >not the back of your throat.
他正面回答她的問題:
"它嘗起來不甜是因為感覺的甜味的味蕾是在你的舌根而不是舌尖."
