我看到有个美国朋友在Facebook上写：我希望大麻合法化。这也太可怕了，美国人到底怎么想的啊？
|
|
|
wǒ kàndào yǒu ge Měiguó péngyou zài Facebook shàng xiě： wǒ xīwàng dàmá héfǎhuà. zhè yě tài kěpà le, Měiguó rén dàodǐ zěnme xiǎng de a?
|
|
|
I've seen some of my American friends write on Facebook: I hope that marijuana is legalized. This is really scary. What are Americans thinking?
|
|
B:
|
这个很正常啊，现在支持大麻合法化的声音很高。
|
|
|
zhè ge hěn zhèngcháng a, xiànzài zhīchí dàmá héfǎhuà de shēngyīn hěn gāo.
|
|
|
This is really quite common! Nowadays there is a lot of support for the legalization of marijuana.
|
|
A:
|
可是大麻是毒品啊！美国不也每年花很多钱和精力去缉毒吗？
|
|
|
kěshì dàmá shì dúpǐn a! Měiguó bù yě měinián huā hěn duō qián hé jīnglì qù jīdú ma?
|
|
|
But marijuana is a drug! Doesn't America also spend lots of money and effort every year to bust drug dealers?
|
|
B:
|
这个还是有区别的。大麻算不算毒品还是个有争议的问题。
|
|
|
zhè ge háishì yǒu qūbié de. dàmá suànbusuàn dúpǐn háishì ge yǒu zhēngyì de wèntí.
|
|
|
There's still a difference here. Whether or not marijuana should be considered a drug is still a controversial question.
|
|
A:
|
啊，有什么区别？
|
|
|
ǎ, yǒu shénme qūbié?
|
|
|
Oh? What's the difference?
|
|
B:
|
大麻虽然也会产生幻觉、快感，但是依赖性没海洛因、冰毒那么强。就算上瘾也可以很快戒掉。而且对身体的伤害也不大。
|
|
|
dàmá suīrán yě huì chǎnshēng huànjué、 kuàigǎn, dànshì yīlài xìng méi hǎiluòyīn、 bīngdú nàme qiáng. jiùsuàn shàngyǐn yě kěyǐ hěnkuài jièdiào. érqiě duì shēntǐ de shānghài yě bù dà.

Although marijuana can cause hallucinations and make people high, it doesn't create dependencies as strong as heroin or crystal meth. Even if you are addicted, you can quit easily. Also, it's not so harmful to the body.
|
|
A:
|
可是还是有伤害的啊。如果合法，万一大家滥用怎么办？
|
|
|
kěshì háishì yǒu shānghài de a. rúguǒ héfǎ, wànyī dàjiā lànyòng zěnme bàn?
|
|
|
But it's still harmful! If it were legal and everyone abused it, what then?
|
|
B:
|
其实虽然现在是非法的，但是在美国，吸大麻的人并不少，特别是青少年。奥巴马还公开承认他吸过呢。还有，像在荷兰的某些地方吸大麻已经是合法的了，可是那里也没有大麻泛滥啊。
|
|

qíshí suīrán xiànzài shì fēifǎ de, dànshì zài Měiguó, xī dàmá de rén bìngbù shǎo, tèbié shì qīngshàonián. Àobāmǎ hái gōngkāi chéngrèn tā xī guò ne. háiyǒu, xiàng zài Hélán de mǒuxiē dìfang xī dàmá yǐjīng shì héfǎ de le, kěshì nàlǐ yě méiyǒu dàmá fànlàn a.

In fact, although it's illegal, many people in America smoke marijuana, especially young people. Even Obama has publicly admitted that he's smoked it. Also, in some places like The Netherlands smoking marijuana is already legal, but these places haven't been flooded with marijuana.
|
|
A:
|
反正我还是觉得这个东西不能碰。
|
|
|
fǎnzhèng wǒ háishì juéde zhè ge dōngxi bùnéng pèng.
|
|
|
Anyway, I still feel that this shouldn't happen.
|
|
B:
|
所以，也不是所有的人都赞成。有一些州已经允许在医疗上使用大麻，而有一些州还是严格禁止的。
|
|
|
suǒyǐ, yě bù shì suǒyǒu de rén dōu zànchéng. yǒuyīxiē zhōu yǐjīng yǔnxǔ zài yīliáo shàng shǐyòng dàmá, ér yǒuyīxiē zhōu háishì yángé jìnzhǐ de.
|
|
|
So, not everyone agrees on this. Some states already allow the use of marijuana in medical treatment, and some states still strictly forbid it.
|
|
A:
|
那你怎么想的呢？
|
|
|
nà nǐ zěnme xiǎng de ne?
|
|
|
What do you think?
|
|
B:
|
我这个人最开明了。这个就像吸烟，虽然有害健康，可那是个人选择。
|
|
|
wǒ zhè ge rén zuì kāimíng le. zhè ge jiù xiàng xīyān, suīrán yǒuhài jiànkāng, kě nà shì gèrénxuǎnzé.
|
|
|
I'm pretty open. This is like smoking cigarettes. It's harmful to your health, but it's a personal choice.
|
|
A:
|
那要是你的孩子要吸大麻，你也赞成？
|
|
|
nà yàoshì nǐ de háizi yào xī dàmá, nǐ yě zànchéng?
|
|
|
Then if your child smoked marijuana, would you approve of it?
|
|
B:
|
啊，那可坚决不允许。
|
|
|
ǎ, nà kě jiānjué bù yǔnxǔ.
|
|
|
Oh，I wouldn't allow that at all.
