蝙蝠猫:“爱我,你怕了吗?”
这只长着四只耳朵的猫成为了网红,其走红速度差点都能赶得上宋喆同学了。

“Just when you think you’ve seen it all, a four-eared cat comes in the door!” Hala Nuemah, managing director of the Western Pennsylvania Humane Society, said in a Facebook post that showcased the 3-year-old cat.“当你觉得自己已经够活久见了,结果一只四耳猫又来给你涨姿势。”Western Pennsylvania Humane Society的总经理Hala Nuemah在facebook上发了这只3岁猫的照片如是说。showcase:['ʃəʊkeɪs]

Batman’s second set of ears is said to be the result of a genetic mutation. The condition has been documented since at least 1936, when a four-eared cat named Toots was found in Ashtabula, Ohio, according to the Western Pennsylvania Humane Society.据Western Pennsylvania Humane Society所说,蝙蝠侠的第二双耳朵是因为基因突变造成的。这种情况在1936年也有记载,那是一只来自俄亥俄州阿什塔比拉的一只叫Toots的四耳猫。mutation:[mjuː'teɪʃ(ə)n]
n. [遗] 突变;变化;元音变化
“The mutation has been studied and is argued to be a recessive gene mutation needed from both parents in order to produce four ears,” the shelter posted on Facebook, where they were bombarded with inquiries on adopting him.“这种基因突变经过研究被认为是隐性基因突变,而要想造成这种四耳猫的突变,这种隐性基因必须父母双方均有携带。”收容所在facebook上说道,人们在facebook上激烈争论关于领养蝙蝠侠的事。recessive gene:
[遗] 隐性基因
Batman initially came into the shelter with an upper respiratory infection, which delayed adoption applications. But he recovered soon after, giving the shelter a green light to find him a new home.蝙蝠侠刚来到收容所的时候患有上呼吸道感染,因此领养的事宜被推迟。等他很快康复后,收容所的人便开始着手为他找一个新家。respiratory:[rɪ'spaɪərətrɪ; 'respɪrətrɪ]
adj. 呼吸的
Just hours after that news was announced, a humane society spokeswoman told ABC News that a family eagerly swept him up.这条消息公布几小时后,一位动物保护协会的发言人告诉ABC有一个家庭非常希望能够领养蝙蝠侠。sweep up:
大扫除;收拾干净sweep sb. up:拥抱
“A young girl and her mother decided to take Batman into their home,” Caitlin Lasky said. “It was fitting because the little girl liked superheroes.”“一个小女孩和她母亲决定领养蝙蝠侠,这再适合不过了,因为这个小女孩迷恋超级英雄”,Caitlin Lasky说道。The shelter expressed hope that news of Batman’s adoption would bring awareness of the many other equally special cats and dogs in need of a home.蝙蝠侠被收养的消息给其他特殊的猫咪和狗狗能够找到新家带来了希望。
也许有的动物天生跟别的同类不太一样——就像人一样,我们所能做的,就是将它们一视同仁,给它们无差别的爱与关心。
——毕竟它们也都是一样的可爱呀。
