That's so scary! Well, let's forget it, then. Being a little chubby is better than getting poisoned! Oh, I just realized, I saw a research report recently. It talked about the ten harmful ingredients in the best-selling weight-loss drugs.

刚从图书馆回来，没借到想看的书。你说现在的人也太疯狂了吧，只要一得奖，再冷门的书也会变得畅销。

I just got back from the library and I didn't manage to borrow the book I wanted. People these days are pretty crazy, as soon as someone wins a prize, the most obscure book will turn into a bestseller.

对啊，我记得当时莫言获奖的作品是一部叫《蛙》的长篇小说，这部小说一夜之间就成了最畅销的书籍，但谁又能说它比莫言其他的作品更优秀呢？

Yes, I remember at the time that the work that Mo Yan won the prize for was a full-length novel called Frog and it became a bestseller overnight, but who is to say it's better than any of his other works?

又是一堆没营养的畅销书，大家就不能看点纯文学吗？至少看看小说嘛。

Another load of best-sellers with no intellectual merit whatsoever. Can't everyone read a little classic literature? At least read a novel!

经典是要经过时间的考验的，你怎么知道现在架子上的某一本畅销书不会变成未来的经典？

Classics stand the test of time, how do you know that none of the bestsellers on the shelf will become a classic in the future?
