"世界上最沒用的發明"

發明的發展和設計通常是為了提升我們每日的生活。很不幸地，並不是所有的發明都達成它們預期的目的。有時太多創新可能會導致一項發明變得沒用。根據英國每日郵報指出，最不需要的發明之一是「腹肌增強器」。對於那些渴望有六塊腹肌的人來說，看起來像烤肉碳烤架的框架和可調整的背帶可以在幾秒內就把你鬆垮的腹部塑造成六塊肌！其他沒什麼意義的發明包括「電話手指器」，戴上這種指套有助於確保你那寶貴的手機觸控螢幕能保持無油垢；「電動冰淇淋甜筒」來幫你省下吃冰時轉甜筒的麻煩；還有「廁所閱讀器」，這種能夠延展的書架提供你一個穩固的平台，讓你在馬桶上還幾乎能做任何事！

對話範例：

（沒用的發明）鄧肯和娜塔莉是好朋友。他們正在看一些世界上最沒用的發明物。讓我們來聽聽他們的對話。

鄧肯：看看這個「腹肌增強器」！它說它可以幾秒內就給你腹肌！你覺得我應該要買嗎？

娜塔莉：這簡直像是世界上最笨的發明！你必須要一直穿著衣服，不然每個人都會知道你的六塊肌是假的！

鄧肯：別這樣嘛，這可以省下我去健身房做那些累死人的運動的錢，我一點都不覺得做那些運動有用，想想我吃那麼多！

娜塔莉：我認為這玩意是用來重建你的自尊心，而非建造你的肌肉。

鄧肯：好啦……我不買就是了。不然「廁所閱讀器」呢？它說它適合讓你在廁所裡閱讀！

娜塔莉：你知道我自己有手。我可以輕易地用自己的雙手握住書本和報紙！

鄧肯：那化妝呢？我打賭你沒有足夠的手來做那件事！想想看你如果可以在坐在馬桶上的時候化妝會有多方便！

娜塔莉：是啊……因為沒有比馬桶更適合上妝的地方了……

(Life) Worlds Most Useless Inventions

Inventions are usually developed and designed to enhance our daily lives. Unfortunately, not all inventions achieve their intended purpose.Sometimes too much innovation can cause an invention to become useless.One of the most unnecessary inventions according to UKs Daily Mail is the Ab Enhancer. For those eager for six pack abs, the barbeque grill looking frame and adjustable straps can mould your flabby stomach into the perfect six pack in seconds!Other pointless inventions include Phone Fingers, which are finger sleeves to help ensure your precious touch-screen phone stays grease-free, Motorized Ice-cream Cone to do all the hard work of turning the cone for you, and also The Loo Read, which is an extendible shelf that provides a sturdy platform for you to do just about anything in the toilet!

Dialogue Example:

(Useless Inventions) Duncan and Natalie are friends. They are at looking at some of the most pointless inventions in the world. Lets listen to their conversation.

Duncan: Look at this Ab Enhancer! It says it can give you abs in seconds! Do you think I should buy it

Natalie: Its like worlds stupidest invention ever! Youll have to keep your shirt on all the time, or else everyone will know your six pack abs are fake!

Duncan: Come on, itll save all the money on me going to the gym and doing all those tiring workouts, which I dont think are working at all, considering how much I eat!

Natalie: I think its made to massage your ego, rather than build your muscles.

Duncan: FineKI wont buy it then. What about this Loo Read? It says its perfect for you to do your reading in the toilet!

Natalie: I do have hands you know. I can easily hold the books and newspapers with my own hands!

Duncan: What about make-up? I bet you dont have enough hands for that! Imagine how convenient it would be if you could put on your make-up while sitting on the toilet!

Natalie: Right...because theres no place better to apply my make-up than the toiletK
