再见夏天:庆祝夏天终于要过去的8个理由

2012-09-04来源:college humor

Summer is a great season. Patio weather, vacation time, BBQ, more BBQ. But sometimes, summer can kinda be a hot, sweaty drag. Luckily, many places have seasons that give us the ability to say hello hoodie weather. Here's some reasons you should be happy summer is almost over.
我们都知道,夏天是个好季节:露天乘凉和度假的好时节,更有数不尽的野外烧烤。但毕竟夏天也是炎热的、让人流汗的季节。幸运的是,很多地方都快迎来穿卫衣的凉爽秋天时节。下面这些是你为夏天快结束了应该感到高兴的理由。

庆祝夏天终于要过去的8个理由

1. No more sweat
你不用再出汗了

Let’s face it. Actually, on second thought, let’s not face it. Sweat is gross. Like, really gross. There’s nothing less refreshing than walking around with what feels like a water balloon burst in your underwear an hour ago but still hasn’t completely dried.
面对现实吧!但思考过后,我们还是不要面对好了:流汗实在是太恶心了。浑身大汗还要到处走动,再没有比这更让人“提神”的了:那感觉就像一小时前内衣里有一个水球爆开了,但到现在却仍湿漉漉的。

2. No More Mosquitos
没有蚊子了

Good thing winter is nature’s bug repellent. Because mosquitos are just terrible. They live because of our blood, these iny, itchy, blood-sucking vampire mooches. I don’t even know why they exist.
冬天有一个好处就是它是自然界中的杀虫剂,因为蚊子实在太可怕了。它们靠我们的血而活,这些细小、令人发痒的吸血虫真讨厌。我不知道它们为什么会存在。

3. You don’t have to make excuses about why you can’t go camping
你不必为不去野营编造借口了

Camping is outdoors torture. Hey, yeah, let’s go sit outside where it’s really, oppressively hot, sweat a lot and eat things from cans while we try not to get eaten by bears. But we WILL feed our flesh to bugs because we don’t really have a choice. Yeah, sorry, guys, but I’m busy from now until mid-October.
户外野营是一种折磨。让我们坐在闷热的户外流一身臭汗,吃着罐头里的东东,与此同时还要避免自己成为熊的美餐。但我们会喂饱各种虫子,因为我们真的别无选择。对不住各位了,从现在到十月中旬我都没空了。

4. No more stench of steaming, melting garbage
不再有“臭气熏天”的垃圾臭味了

The sun is great for lots of things: light keeping our planet alive. It’s also really good at taking something that already smells bad, and baking it until it smells like hot trash. But it's worse because it’s just everywhere.
对很多生物来讲太阳是很好的,太阳提供光源让我们的星球生存。但同样地,太阳也很擅长把已经闻起来臭臭的东西烘成很热腾腾的垃圾。更糟的是到处都有垃圾。
