"Naked Lunch" by william Burroughs
Burroughs:
"I did not understand what the title meant until my recent recovery.
The title means exactly what the words say: NAKED Lunch--a frozen
moment when everyone sees what is on the end of the fork."

William Burroughs 的這本小說，標題其實是另外一位作家Jack Kerouac建議的。
作者本人一開始也無法理解為什麼他那本小說要叫這個名字Naked lunch。
他說這本書的內容是在毒癮發作的狂亂狀態下記錄下來的。
不過在他的毒癮病康復後，
他終於了解到為什麼要叫這個標題。
他說，The title means exactly what the words say: NAKED Lunch--a frozen
moment when everyone sees what is on the end of every fork.

作者在開餐廳的前一年才吃過酪梨 , 表示她對cooking或food不是很了解
(不如她對一些歐洲已逝作者或者詩人的了解)
我想這應該是一種對比的寫法

When I teach a class, I want the students to be "writing down the
bones," the essential, awake speech of their mind. But I also know I
can't just say, "Okay, write clearly and with great honesty."
這裡的 "writing down the bones" 的意思是...

＊寫到骨子裡（跟愛到骨子裡、恨到骨子裡的形容一樣）

In class we try different techniques or methods.
Eventually, the students hit the mark, come home to what they need to
say and how they need to say it.

* 上面這句話的意思是：「最後學生們適當地掌握到他們所需要說的話及需要如何去表達。」

It is the same for listening to this tape.
It can be play consecutively and that may be good the first time
through.

* 講義上的 "play" 該改成 "played"

"that may be good the first time through" 是什麼意思？

Each chapter is designed to be its own whole.

* 這句話的意思是「每一章節都是完整設計，可自成一章。」
