场景：小华男友研究广告被小华怼成那样，决定通过新物种的发现打开小华食欲之门，如果没有小红及时科普，小华恐怕....
Xiaohua：Hey! What are you reading? A novel?
小华：嘿！你在读什么？小说？
Xiaohua's Boyfriend：No. I am reading something about biology. A new mushroom has been found in Zhejiang and Hainan Provinces, which attracts many netizens' attention.
小华男友：没有。我在读和生物学相关的东西。一种菌类新品种在浙江和海南被发现，吸引了网友们的注意。
Xiaohua：A new mushroom? You mean a novel species of fungus？
小华：新菌类？你的意思是菌类新物种？
Xiaohua's Boyfriend：Yes. Do you remember last time when we went to Yunnan？You were struggling to eat mushroom hotpot. From then on, I'd like to study your personal eating habits, something you like to eat or something you hate to take a bite.
小华男友：是的呢。你还记得上次我们去云南吗？你非要吃菌类火锅，从那个时候起，我就研究你的个人饮食习惯，什么你吃，什么你一口都不吃。
Xiaohong：You are a sweet guy!
小红：你太甜了，哥们。
Xiaohua：Flattered! Well, the new discovery started a heated discussion online as netizens wondered if the new fungus is edible.
小华：受宠若惊啊！呃，新物种的发现引起网络热议，网友们想知道这到底是能不能吃？
Xiaohua's Boyfriend：To eat or not to eat is still a problem.
小华男友：吃和不吃都是个问题。
Xiaohong；Do you want to eat first for Xiaohua？
小红：你愿意为小华先吃吗？
Xiaohua's Boyfriend：Yes, of course I will. I would rather die for her.
小华男友：愿意啊。我愿意去死。
Xiaohua：Oh, honey, you are so cute. Hug me please. Please eat first.
小华：宝贝，你太甜了。抱抱。快去吃吧。
Xiaohong：Hold on a second. According to the experts who studied the new species sample, they claim that they have limited knowledge about the new mushroom. It's advised that you shouldn't have a try.
小红：慢着。根据新物种样品研究专家表示，他们对这类菌类知之甚少，所以建议别吃。
Xiaohua's Boyfriend：Come on. I am a great Chinese. I can eat many four-legged things except the table. Why not try the new species?
小华男友：得了吧，作为一个中国人，除了四条腿的桌子不能吃，四条腿的啥都能吃。要不我试试？

场景：小红对学术的研究的确给小华男友很多帮助。
It's estimated that fewer than 1% of the world's mushroom species are known to science. So new species are being discovered all the time - and often by citizen scientists, not academics.
据估计，科学已知的蘑菇种类不到世界上的1%。因此，新物种一直在被发现——而且往往是由公民科学家而不是学者发现的。
The mushrooms don't get anywhere randomly, so they're, you know, associated with the same or similar tree, or they got carried by an animal. But once you have enough points on the map, you can start to figure out a little bit more about what it's doing in the ecology.
蘑菇不会随机到达任何地方，所以你知道它们，与相同或相似的树有关，或者它们被动物携带。但一旦你在地图上有了足够多的分布，你就可以开始弄清楚它在生态中做了什么。
The outsiders are extra eyes on the ground, but they also pitch in for the intense process of documenting those new species in the scientific literature. If you find something to eat, it's a bonus, so chanterelles are great but toxic.
发现新物种的局外人是地面上的额外的眼睛，但他们也参与到在科学文献中记录这些新物种的紧张过程中。如果你找到了吃的，这是额外的奖励，所以，鸡油菌很好但是有毒。
