實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：Lunch 午餐

Todd: Now, Adrienne, we are both work in the same office. We are colleagues. Let's talk about lunch. We have different lunch tastes. Why don't you talk about what do you like to have for lunch?

托德：埃德里安娜，我們在同一個辦公室工作。我們是同事。我們來談談午飯吧。我們有各自喜歡吃的午餐。你來談談你喜歡的午餐怎么樣?

Adrienne: Ah, my favorite thing to do for lunch, when I'm at the office, of course, is to go for either Indian or Vietnamese. Both are very spicy and I like that for lunchtime. Also, it's kind of a light lunch I think, so I like it to be light, but somewhat exciting.

埃德里安娜：嗯，在辦公室的時候，我午餐最喜歡吃印度菜或越南菜。印度菜和越南菜都很辣，我喜歡午餐吃這兩類食物。我中午喜歡吃，所以一般中午我會吃簡單又辣的食物。

Todd: See, I like Indian food and I like the Vietnamese food, but I just don't like doing it for lunch. I'm a burger-and-fry guy. Like at lunch, I just want a sandwich or a hamburger and a milkshake, quick and easy. It tastes good.

托德：我喜歡印度菜也喜歡越南菜，可是我不喜歡在午餐的時候吃。我最喜歡吃漢堡和薯條，所以午餐時我會吃一個三明治或是一個漢堡，搭配一杯奶昔，又快又簡單。而且味道很好。

Adrienne: Too heavy for me for lunchtime.

埃德里安娜：對我來說，這樣午餐吃的太多了。

Todd: It tastes so good though.

托德：不過味道很不錯。

Adrienne: I know, but I fall asleep an hour later sitting at my desk. Don't tell anyone.

埃德里安娜：我知道，不過我吃完快餐以后的一個小時會在座位上睡著。不要告訴別人。

Todd: So when you do have fast food — you do eat pretty healthily — but when you do eat fast food, what kind of fast foods do you like the most?

托德：你吃得很健康，那一般你去快餐廳會點什么吃?

Adrienne: Well, I am a sucker for a good cheeseburger, so I really do like to have that, but again, I have to be able to go home and sleep after I've eaten one.

埃德里安娜：我非常喜歡美味的奶酪漢堡，所以一般我會點奶酪漢堡吃，不過我要再說一遍，吃完后我要回家睡一覺。

Todd: So it just sits there.... So what do you like on your hamburgers? What vegetables?

托德：你就這樣坐著……那你喜歡在漢堡里放什么蔬菜?

Adrienne: My favorite cheeseburger that I found — I actually found a restaurant recently that has really good cheeseburgers — and my favorite one is lettuce, tomato, raw onion, avocado and cheese.

埃德里安娜：我最近發(fā)現(xiàn)有家餐廳的奶酪漢堡非常好吃，我最喜歡的奶酪漢堡里有萵苣、番茄、洋蔥、鱷梨和奶酪。

Todd: That sounds pretty good. Actually, when it comes to burgers for me, I just want it plain. I just want a bun a hamburger, actually no cheese, a little ketchup and maybe a little lettuce, but that's it. Just hamburger and bread.

托德：聽起來就好吃。其實說到漢堡，我一般會要普通的漢堡。只要漢堡面包、牛肉餅，不加奶酪，加一些蕃茄醬和一點萵苣，就這樣。只要牛肉餅和漢堡面包。

Adrienne: You're a simple guy Todd.

埃德里安娜：托德，你真的是一個簡單的人。

Todd: I am a simple guy.

托德：對，我是個簡單的人。

Adrienne: See, I like my food a little more exciting I think than you do.

埃德里安娜：與你相比，我喜歡的食物更刺激性一些。

Todd: OK, but as for the sauces, we got mustard, mayonnaise and ketchup. Which do you like the best?

托德：好，就醬料來說，有芥末醬、蛋黃醬和蕃茄醬。你最喜歡哪種?

Adrienne: Hmm, it depends on what the other ingredients are.

埃德里安娜：嗯，這要取決于還有什么配料。

Todd: Right. See the thing is that I love mustard. I can eat mustard on just about anything, you know meat, whatever. I hate mayonnaise. I don't understand why people eat mayonnaise. It's disgusting. And ketchup, I eat sometimes.

托德：好。我喜歡芥末醬。我可以用芥末醬搭配任何食物，比如肉類之類的，都可以。我不喜歡吃蛋黃醬。我不理解人們?yōu)槭裁磿缘包S醬。那太惡心了。有時我會吃蕃茄醬。

Adrienne: If I have a plain cheeseburger, nothing on it, just cheese and meat, and bun, then ketchup and mustard, but if it's got vegetables on it, then I like mayonnaise. It's just a preference.

埃德里安娜：如果我吃普通的奶酪漢堡，沒有別的配菜，只有奶酪、肉和漢堡面包，那我會搭配蕃茄醬或芥末醬，但是如果漢堡里加了蔬菜，那我會搭配蛋黃醬。這只是個人偏好。

Todd: I know. There's something about mayonnaise. I don't know.

托德：我明白。我只是覺得蛋黃醬有點怪，我也說不太清楚。

Adrienne: Get over it.

埃德里安娜：適應就好了。
