Rats in tiny trousers, pseudoscientific bullshit, the personalities of rocks, and Volkswagen’s, shall we say, “creative” approach to emissions testing were among the research topics honored by the 2016 Ig Nobel Prizes. The winners were announced last night at a live webcast ceremony held at Harvard University.
穿著小褲子的老鼠、偽科學胡扯、石頭的個性和大眾在尾氣排放測試中富有創(chuàng)造性的方法，這些都是2016搞笑諾貝爾獎的得獎研究課題。昨晚，在哈佛大學舉行的網(wǎng)上直播儀式中，搞笑諾貝爾獎的得主一一揭開了神秘的面紗。
注：對于那些不熟悉搞笑諾貝爾獎的人，我們只能說它是一個為妙趣科學舉辦的年度慶典。或者說是慶祝那些看似可疑的科學，由諷刺雜志《不可思議研究年報》提供。它的主要目標是表彰那些一開始讓你大笑接著令你深思的研究。它們都非常有趣，大獎得主們常常需要自費前往慶典接受他們的獎項。
This year’s crop of Ig Nobel Laureates is listed below. Those who attended the ceremony were given just 60 seconds for their acceptance speeches, a longstanding rule that was, as always, vigorously enforced (the Oscars could learn a thing or two from the Ig Nobels).
今年的搞笑諾貝爾名單如下。那些參加慶典的人只有60秒的提名演講時間，這個長期以來存在的規(guī)則常常會被大力貫徹下去(奧斯卡也應(yīng)該從搞笑諾貝爾獎中學到一兩樣東西)。
