多看一些英语类的资讯可以提高我们的英语水平，下面的一篇BBC news及翻译同学们可以阅读练习一下。

　　There is a huge influx of big business flooding the American state of Colorado attracted byMarijuana. Many of the state's residents voted for cannabis legalization because they didn'tthink people should go to jail for smoking pot not because they wanted a huge proliferation ofcannabis outlets. But that's what's happened as other states consider whether or not to followsuit.

　　现在有一种赚钱的大生意风靡美国的科罗拉多州，而生意的源头是大麻。此前，许多科罗拉多州居民投票赞成大麻合法化，原因是他们认为逮捕抽大麻的人是不合理的，而不是因为想大量增加大麻的销售点。但后者竟然成了事实，美国其他州在考虑是否效仿科罗拉多州大麻合法化的做法。

　　At the beginning of the year, Colorado became the first state in which cannabis was legalized.The result has not only been the birth of new marijuana tour companies, but the startlingburgeoning of the cannabis industry as a whole.

　　今年年初，科罗拉多成为美国第一个大麻合法化的州，这不仅滋生了大麻游览公司，而且惊人地加速了整个大麻产业的增长。

　　You can smell it in the air.

　　空气里都是大麻的味道。

　　You like it?

　　你喜欢吗?

　　It's just funny.

　　闻着好奇怪。

　　We are seeing in front our eyes the creation of the next tobacco industry. So this idea ofcontrol and regulation is a mirage. The industry is controlling what's happening.

　　我们眼睁睁地看着另外一个烟草产业诞生了，控制和管理都是纸上谈兵。是产业在控制着事态的发展。

　　So what can you do in a place as already legalized cannabis?

　　那么，在大麻已经合法化的地方，你们能做些什么呢?

　　Well I think the industry should be forced to take all of these edibles off the shelves. The ideathat you have to cut a chocolate bar into 16 pieces in order for it to be safe is absurd. No onedoes that.

　　我觉得应该要求该产业让可食用大麻全部下架。把一个巧克力切成16块来确保食用安全是荒谬的。没有人会这么做。

　　Since legalization, more people are seeking help for cannabis related problems in Colorado.

　　大麻合法化以来，更多科罗拉多州人正在寻求办法解决与大麻相关的问题。

　　We've seen a couple of trends that I didn't necessarily predict. One of them is much muchhigher concentration.

　　我们现在看到的趋势是我无法准确预测的，其中一个就是大麻的浓度比之前高得多。
