稀奇!扬子鳄“特许经营店” [ 2006-11-30 17:33 ]
由下面这幅图片,想到了那句古诗:谁知盘中餐,“块块皆‘珍稀’”。日前,扬子鳄佳肴在黄山市徽府美食城“闪亮”登场,这是首家获国家林业局批准的扬子鳄可限量定点经营店。据悉,扬子鳄以“食材”身份出现的特许经营连锁店,目前在全国有三家。
请看图片文字说明:A waitress displays gourmet Chinese alligator at a restaurant in
Huangshan, East China's Anhui Province on November 27, 2006. China has three
franchised eateries that serve
Chinese alligator, which is at the top of the list of protected animals in
China.
报道中的“franchised eateries”指的是“特许经营餐馆”。与一般的chain
store(连锁商店)相比,“franchise”更强调“特许经营”,比如遍布全球的麦当劳、肯德基,就是地地道道的“franchise(s)”。
此外,在体育术语中,“franchise”可用来形容“职业球队”,如:Michael Jordan, widely described as the
greatest basketball player of all time, has no desire to move into coaching and
would rather own an NBA franchise.
(史上最伟大的篮球队员迈克尔·乔丹并不打算做教练,他的目标是拥有一个NBA旗下的职业篮球队。)
