露西的一天 第32期:吃早飯講解(7)

Toast with jam is one of the things that Lucy settles for for breakfast when she doesn't have time to make a hot breakfast. 沒時間做頓熱乎乎的早餐的時候，露西可能會拿果醬夾吐司湊合一下。

Toast, we already know, is bread that is cooked - that is brown. 我們已經(jīng)說過，吐司是烤過的面包，已經(jīng)烤成棕色的。

Jam, "jam," is a liquid made from fruit, such as strawberries or cherries. 果醬(jam)是草莓和櫻桃之類的水果做的一種液體。

Cereal, "cereal," is a dry food that you usually eat with milk. 麥片(cereal)通常摻了牛奶吃，是一種干燥食物。

I have cereal almost every day for breakfast because I am not a good cook like Lucy, 我每天早上都吃麥片作早餐，因為我不像露西那樣會做飯。

so if I did not eat cereal, I would not eat anything. 所以不吃麥片，我就沒飯吃了。

Lucy says "it’s nice to start the day with a sit-down meal when I get the chance." 露西說“有機會的時候還是坐下來認真吃頓早飯比較好。”

A sit-down, "sit-down," meal is a meal where you take your time, you relax, you sit down and you have something like a formal meal. 坐下來(sit-down)認真吃頓早飯是指你不慌不忙地吃飯，很放松，坐在那里像正式宴會一樣吃飯。

It's a - it's a more relaxed way of eating. 這是一種比較放松的吃飯方式。
