基礎被動語態

Your body is cool and all, but have you ever wondered how much is it all worth?

你的身體又酷又完整，但你曾想過它值多少錢嗎？

Let's start with selling your body one piece at a time.

Sperm? You can make $35 to $135 a shot, with some banks paying donors $1,500 for a one-year commitment , the criteria being you are healthy, tall, young, and educated.

精蟲？以銀行付給捐精者一年 1,500 美元的行情而言，每一劑能賺 35 到 135 美元。你必須符合健康、高、年輕又受過教育的標準

The price for an egg, however, is much greater at $10000 and is likely due to the more invasive 20-minute procedure to retrieve eggs that can put you at a risk of infection or even endometriosis.

至於你的卵子的價錢就高多了，有可能是因為必須歷經整整 20 分鐘侵入性手術才能取出卵子過程要冒著感染以及得到子宮內膜異位的風險

The protein rich liquid part of your blood ,aka plasma, can be worth $50.

血液中蛋白質最多的部分，也被稱作血漿，則值 50 美元

However, some of the wealthy and aging among us are paying $8000 a session to be infused with young blood.

不過，有些有錢又有年紀的人會願意付一期 8000 美元來注入年輕的血液

Though evidence is in its early stages, the "fountain of youth / young blood" hypothesis comes from research at Stanford University,

雖然證據尚未明確，但史丹佛大學提出的「年輕血液永保青春」的假說指出，

where old mice injected with plasma from umbilical cords of newborn human babies, improved the old mice's performance on memory tests.

被注入新生兒臍帶血後的老老鼠，在記憶考試的表現會更加進步

The price of an organ transplant can be extremely expensive with more than 116,000 Americans waiting to receive a transplant.

在美國，因為有 11,600 個人在等器官移植，器官移植的價錢因此高得嚇人

A kidney transplant is over $400,000, while a heart can be $1.4M.

一顆腎臟要價超過 40 萬美元而一顆心臟更要價 140 萬美金

That is, however, the cost of the transplant surgery, and not how much you would make selling your organs.

不過，那是一個移植手術的花費，而非你賣掉器官賺的錢

Though illegal in the US and most other nations, the organ black market does exist.

雖然在美國買賣器官是違法的，但在其他國家，器官交易的黑市確實存在

Based on reports by the World Health Organization,

a kidney in India can go for $20,000; in China, $40,000; but in Israel, you can make as much as $160,000.

在印度，一顆腎臟可賣到 2 萬美金；在中國則是 4 萬美金；但在以色列，你能賺到 16 萬美元

Not willing to part with, well, a part of you? Try selling your hair!

若不想將身體器官拆開賣，那只賣你的一部分呢？試試賣你的頭髮吧！

一頂真髮製的假髮得花 800 至 3,000 美元

It's clear that some body parts are worth a lot, but some people have really put a price tag on their parts.

顯然有些身體器官值很多錢，不過有些人真的就把自己的身體標了價

Sources state that Rihanna's legs are insured for $1,000,000.

根據美國資料顯示，蕾哈娜的腿就投保了 100 萬美元

But that's nothing compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, whose legs are $144 million.

但比起足球好手 Cristiano Rolando 那對價值 1 億 4400 萬的雙腿就真的差多了

Then there are the services your body provides.

然後還有你們身體所提供的功能

You exhale 11,000L a day and that means you can blow up the tires for about 275 cars.

你每天吐出 11,000 公升的空氣，這表示你能將 275 輛車的輪胎充氣

Your sneeze has a wind speed of 4.5 meters per second,

你打的噴嚏每秒風速高達 4.5 公尺

which is enough wind to power a small electric wind turbine.

這已經足以讓一台小型風力發電機發電

Your cough is even more powerful at 22.4 meters per second and could power a utility scale windmill.

你咳的嗽甚至更厲害每秒有 22.4 公尺，足以讓個多功能風車轉動

Your farts? If your diet is rich in beans, you can produce 68 mL of carbon dioxide in a single day.

至於你放的屁？若你攝取夠多的豆類，你每一天能產出 68 毫升的二氧化碳

If you store these (we won't ask you why),

如果你將這些屁都貯存起來 (當然我們也不會問你原因啦)

but if you did, in 40 years you would have an approximate metric ton of CO2.

不過若你真的這樣做，40 年後你會有約一公噸的二氧化碳

That's a lot of gas, but it would only be worth $220.

那真是超級多的瓦斯，但只值 220 美元

Meanwhile, your brain can store 100 TB of information.

同時，你的腦袋有 100 TB 的資訊儲存容量

The retail value of a hard drive that big is upwards to $2500.

這種硬碟的零售價甚至可上看到 2,500 美金

Then, there are elements that make up you.

Though we're made mostly of oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen, there are some very valuable trace elements that contribute to your design like copper, gold, and even uranium.

雖然我們身體大多由氧氣、碳跟氫構成，還是有許多建構出你的珍貴少量元素像是銅幣、金幣或甚至是鈾

However, if you added this all up, your elemental dollar amount is close to... one dollar.

然而，若全部加總起來，這些元素總價值竟然 ... 只有將近一美金
