文中的zero-calorie soda就是“零卡汽水”的意思,其中calorie是名詞,意為“卡路里”(熱量單位),被廣泛使用在營(yíng)養(yǎng)計(jì)量和健身手冊(cè)上,簡(jiǎn)稱“卡”,縮寫為cal,如:The calorie content in this ice cream is very high.(這種冰激凌的卡路里含量很高。)
文中第二段的carbonated是形容詞,意為“碳酸的;含二氧化碳的”,如:Why do carbonated drinks seem to bubble more in plastic cups?(為什么碳酸飲料在塑料杯中氣泡較多?)
