考研英语阅读真题中的文章，多摘自英美主流外刊，有时候你认识所有单词、搞清全部语法还不够，还需要了解英美文化，掌握他们的表达方式，这就是阅读的潜台词。有时候是一些俗语和俚语，有时候是固定搭配，有时候需要借助历史、风俗、文化才能理解某种现象或表达。总之，这些地道的英语文章背后都有潜台词，一般人不容易读出，但往往是理解文章的关键。

Would you eat your food in virtual reality? Bizarre Samsung concept could
be the future of restaurants
虚拟现实怎么玩?三星帮你设想未来餐厅
Samsung has an ambitious concept for the way we’ll eat out in the future -
by strapping a virtual reality (VR) headset on and dining out beneath the
waves.
三星大胆地帮我们设想了未来的就餐体验：佩戴虚拟现实头盔Gear VR,在水下就餐。
A blog post on the company’s website explains the process where restaurants
can "create a complete experience around a meal, not just serve a plate of
food."
三星在官网详述了这个过程：餐厅利用Gear VR提供全方位的就餐体验，为顾客提供的不仅仅是食物。
It says that by eating out in VR, customers will be able to enjoy their
food in a variety of settings , from a hillside in Tuscony to underneath the
ocean surrounded by fish.
消费者佩戴Gear VR可以体验不同的就餐环境：可能置身于托斯卡纳山间，也可能在海洋深处被鱼群围绕。
We’re not sure how you’re supposed to see what you’re eating if you’re
looking at a virtual world but let’s not get bogged down by details.
我们并不清楚在虚拟现实体验中顾客将通过什么样的方式看到食物，但是我们不要纠结这些细节。
According to Samsung, this idea has already been successfully trailed by
Sublimotion - a company specialising in gastronomic experiences - at the Hard
Rock Hotel in Ibiza.
三星称，坐落在伊比沙岛的Hard Rock酒店中的Sublimotion餐厅已成功实现了这个想法，该餐厅专门研究美食体验。
It’s now looking for other restaurants to join the trend and start
accessorising meals with Gear VR gadgets - a virtual reality headset that uses
Samsung’s smartphones to work.
Sublimotion正在寻找其他餐厅加入用Gear VR提供虚拟现实就餐体验的趋势，这个虚拟现实头盔是通过三星智能手机操控的。
"When launching a virtual reality experience at your restaurant, the first
consideration is what type of overall experience is needed for diners, and how
to integrate all five senses," explains the company.
三星公司提到：“当我们在一个餐厅推出虚拟现实体验时，我们首先要考虑的是食客大致需要怎样的体验，以及该体验如何整合五种感官。”
"Once this is established, the restaurant plans out the meal. It is
important that the food remains the focal point, and that the effects used only
enhance the overall dining experience. Both the overall experience and the food
should be drivers for all the other artistic and technological decisions for the
event."
“方案推出后，餐厅开始策划餐点。食物保持原来的特点是至关重要的，虚拟现实效果只是用来增强就餐体验的。所有艺术和技术方面的决策都应该服务于整体的就餐体验以及食物本身。”
And, so as not to miss out the practical side of it: "Staffing the event is
another essential consideration, as each Sublimotion event requires a team of 21
to host the event for a just 12 diners."
另外，实践方面的因素也不容忽视：“另一个必须考虑的因素是员工配置问题，在Sublimotion餐厅，服务12名食客需要一个有21位员工的团队。”
So, in conclusion, if you thought virtual reality was just for video game
fans get ready to eat your hat.
总而言之，如果你认为虚拟现实技术只能给电脑游戏玩家带来福利，那你就大错特错了。
