進入《中英對照讀新聞》Toddler served margarita in a sippy cup 幼兒的學習杯裡誤裝瑪格麗特調酒
◎魏國金
Kim Mayorga was confused when her 2-year-old started making funny faces and pushing away the apple juice he had ordered at Applebee’s. The explanation came when she opened the lid of the sippy cup and was hit by the smell of tequila and Triple Sec.
當金恩．瑪尤嘉的2歲兒子開始露出好笑表情，並推開在「蘋果蜜蜂」餐廳自己點的蘋果汁時，她頗感納悶。她打開學習杯蓋，龍舌蘭與橙皮酒味撲鼻而來後，才恍然大悟。
The restaurant staff accidentally gave Julian Mayorga a margarita. He grew drowsy and started vomiting a few hours later and was rushed to the hospital.
餐廳的工作人員錯把瑪格麗特雞尾酒給了朱利安．瑪尤嘉。他變得昏沉，數小時後開始嘔吐，並緊急送醫治療。
The apple juice and margarita mix were stored in identical plastic bottles, and the manager mistakenly grabbed the margarita container to pour the boy’s drink, said Randy Tei, vice president for Apple Bay East Inc., which owns the franchise restaurant.
這家加盟餐廳所屬的東蘋果灣公司的副總裁泰伊表示，蘋果汁與瑪格麗特調酒都裝在外型一樣的塑膠瓶內，經理誤抓了內裝瑪格麗特的瓶子，將酒倒入小男孩的杯裡。
The Mayorgas will be reimbursed for their medical bills, and Tei said the franchise group’s restaurants will no longer serve apple juice and margaritas in similar containers.
瑪尤嘉夫婦將獲得醫藥費補償，泰伊也表示，加盟集團的餐廳將不再用相似的容器，供應蘋果汁與瑪格麗特酒。
Mayorga said her son is now doing fine. She said the company has been very apologetic and offered free meals, but she added, "If they think I’m going back there, they’re ridiculous."
瑪尤嘉說，兒子現在情況良好。她說該公司一再對她抱歉，表示願意提供免費餐飲，但她說，「如果他們以為我會再到那裡，就未免太荒謬了。」
