生活英語口語:我的夢想家園
M: have you ever thought about your ideal home?
C: I have, actually; I’ve always wanted to build my dream home myself.
M: what would it be like?
C: well, it would be spacious and located next to a park, because a nice view is important to me.
M: how many rooms would it have?
C: I’d want it to have three bedrooms on a second floor with balconies on each, and one main bedroom on the main floor with an attached en suite. I’d also want a large living room and kitchen connected to each other so that there would be one large open space for people to spend time with each other.
M: how many bedrooms would your dream home have?
C: I’d have one guest bathroom in the basement, one attached to the main bedroom, and one upstairs, so a total of three.
M: how would you decorate your house?
C: I don’t like a lot of clutter, so I wouldn’t have lots of things out. I would have a few vases on the mantel piece and some pictures of my family on the walls, but other than that, most things would be kept in closets.
M: how many TVs would your dream home have?
C: I think TV is a great waste of time, so I would only have one small TV in the kitchen to watch the news in the morning.
你有沒有想過你夢想中的家是什么樣子的?
實際上我還真沒想過，我一直希望能親自建造我的夢想家園。
會是什么樣子的呢?
嗯，它應(yīng)該非常寬敞，而且緊挨著公園。因為漂亮的景致對我非常重要。
會有幾間房子呢?
我想最好在樓上有三個臥室，每間都帶有陽臺。主層的主臥室要內(nèi)設(shè)一套衛(wèi)生間。我還想有一間大的客廳和廚房相連，這樣可以有一個很大的開放式空間讓人們待在一起。
你夢想中的家會有幾間浴室?
一間客人用的浴室在地下室，一間要含在主臥室里面，還有一間在樓上。這樣總共是3間。
你想怎么裝修房子?
我不想有太多東西弄的亂糟糟的，所以不會做太多裝飾。只是想在壁爐上擺幾個花瓶，在墻上掛幾張我們家的合影照片。但是除了這些，大部分東西都要房子柜子里。
打算放幾臺電視?
我覺得看電視是浪費時間，所以頂多在廚房里放一臺小電視，早上看看新聞就行了.
Outdoor deck 天臺
Park view 園林景觀
Self-catering 自帶食物
Ornament 小裝飾品
Tableware 餐具
Loo 洗手間
Au pair 住家傭人
Cable TV 有線電視
Vegetable garden 菜園
Barbecue 燒烤
My dream home would be located close to a park because a nice view is important to me.
我夢想中的家應(yīng)該靠近一個公園，因為戶外的景致對我很重要。
