英语翻译
Something was definitely happening here.It was messier than a food fight and much more important than whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable.My kids were doing what Copernicus did when he placed the sun at the center of the universe,readjusting the centuries-old paradigm of an earth-centered system.They were doing what Reuben Mattus did when he renamed his Bronx ice cream Haagen-Dazs and raised the price without changing the product.They were doing what Edward Jenner did when he discovered a vaccination for smallpox by abandoning his quest for a cure.
Instead of studying people who were sick with smallpox ,he began to study people who were exposed to it but never got sick.He found that they’d all contracted a similar but middle disease,cow pox,which vaccinated them against the deadly smallpox.

Answer 1

先直译一下：
这里绝对有事情发生.这里的情况比一次食物大战要严重得多而且比像西红柿是水果还是蔬菜?这样的问题要重要得多.我的孩子所做的事情,就像是哥白尼把太阳放到了宇宙的中央,调整了老式的地心宇宙模型；像鲁本·马特斯一样把他的布朗克斯雪糕改名成哈根达斯然后把价格提高而实际上是同一产品；像爱德华·詹纳一样发现了植入牛痘的方法来抵抗天花病毒.
和那些学习被天花病毒感染的人不一样,他开始学习那些接触天花病毒却不被感染的人.他发现他们都感染了一种相似的但是并不那么具有杀伤力的病毒,牛痘,他把这个植入病人的体内以让病人拥有抵抗致命的天花的抵抗力.
