如果进食份量等于一块小饼干的的 Explanation: Serving size 指的是「进食份的量」。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 mins (2004-06-24 07:00:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 修正：应该说是「制作来给人进食的量」。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 mins (2004-06-24 07:02:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 如果只说「进食的份量」那就不太精确。 |

Explanation Explanation: Geez, sounds likes a A-Maths question!! Here's my interpretation: - 1 fat-free cookie has <1g of fats - 5 fat-free cookies have <5g of fats ("... over four grams of fat") Translate it as: "Eating five "fat-free" cookies when the serving size equals one (non "fat-free") cookie could net you well over four grams of fat." or simply "Eating five "fat-free" cookies could net you well over four grams of fat." HTH -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 mins (2004-06-24 07:05:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Five fat-free cookies can give you over four grams of fat (but not 5 or more, because there is less than a gram of fat in a single cookie)..... *sigh* Life is already difficult as it is... and if I cannot eat as much Chips ahoy as I want, then........ *arghhhhh* -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 mins (2004-06-24 07:06:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- My point: The original sentence is pretty confusing. You can try to simplify it in your translation. Just get the idea and fly with it! |

FYI Explanation: 如果每一块"fat-free" cookies的重量和一块普通cookies的重量相同， 那么， 吃5块所谓的"无脂" cookies， 你还是照样摄入4 克多的脂肪。 |
