And a number of oil-producing countries are trimming their gasoline subsidies and raising taxes, so the net savings for global consumers is not as big as the oil price plunge might suggest.(許多產油國正在削減汽油補貼并提高稅收，因此全球消費者的凈儲蓄并不像油價暴跌可能顯示的那樣大。)

All of these alternatives are carbon-based fuels whose molecules are smaller and simpler than those of gasoline.(所有這些替代品都是碳基燃料，其分子比汽油分子更小、更簡單。)

However, since methanol-fueled vehicles could be designed to be much more efficient than "gasoline clone" vehicles fueled with methanol, they would need comparatively less fuel.(然而，由于以甲醇為燃料的車輛在設計上可以比以甲醇為燃料的“汽油克隆”車輛效率高得多，因此它們所需的燃料相對較少。)

Another reason why the author feels that moving from traditional gasoline to corn ethanol is a good idea is because they are more environmentally friendly than fossil fuels.(作者認為從傳統的汽油轉向玉米乙醇是一個好主意的另一個原因是，它比化石燃料更環保。)

A car can be driven as far on a gallon of the new plant-based fuel as a car can be driven on a gallon of gasoline, but a gallon of the plant-based fuel both costs less and results in less pollution.(汽車使用一加侖這種新植物燃料或一加侖汽油可以開得一樣遠；但是一加侖植物燃料不但花費少，并且造成的污染更少。)

One of the most attractive aspects of corn ethanol is how environmentally friendly it is when compared to current automobile gasoline.(與目前的汽車汽油相比，玉米乙醇最具吸引力的一個方面是它很環保。)

At a refinery, the crude oil from underground is separated into natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, and various oils.(在煉油廠，從地下提取的原油被分離成天然氣、汽油、煤油和各種其他類型的油。)

Effectively, the ban will include the registration of new cars in the country as they will not allow any gasoline powered vehicle to be registered after 2030.(實際上，這項禁令將包括在中國注冊新車，因為在2030年后，中國將不允許任何汽油動力汽車注冊。)

Gasoline now costs an average of $3.15 a gallon, seven cents shy of the record set last May.(汽油現在的平均價格是每加侖3.15美元，僅比去年五月的記錄低了七美分。)

These molecules burn more cleanly than gasoline, in part because they have fewer, if any, carbon-carbon bonds, and the hydrocarbons they do emit are less likely to generate ozone.(這些分子燃燒起來比汽油更干凈，部分原因是它們的碳-碳鍵更少（如果有的話），而且它們排放的碳氫化合物不太可能產生臭氧。)
