谁都知道,美国是个经济大国,世界排名第一,可想而知美国人的富裕。但他们不会吃,至少没中国人会吃。到美国不久,女婿买回一周的菜,我指着一盒猪排骨问:“多少钱1斤?”女婿说:“美国不以斤为单位,而以磅为单位。这排骨1.99美元1磅,合9两多。我很是诧异:在国内常听人说,美国的生活水平很高,什么东西都贵,特别是吃的,可排骨咋这么便宜呀?女婿见我不解,就给我解惑。 Everyone knows that the United States is a major economic power and ranks first in the world and can imagine the richness of the United States. But they will not eat, at least not the Chinese will eat. Shortly after I arrived in the United States, my son-in-law bought back a week of food, and I pointed at a box of pork ribs asking: ”How much is 1 kg?“ ”The son-in-law said:" The United States does not use pounds as its unit. $ 1 pound, a total of more than 9. I am very surprised: In the country often hear people say that the United States of high standard of living, what are expensive, especially to eat, pork ribs ye so cheap it? Son see me puzzled , Give me doubts.
