A:Honey, we are all out of wine and cheese. Do you mind running to the deli and picking up a few things?亲爱的,我们没有酒和奶酪了。你介意去趟熟食店买点东西吗?
B:Can’t it wait? I’m watching the game right now!不能等会吗?我正在看比赛呢。
A:Your friends and family are coming over tonight and we still need to get a lot of things.你的朋友和家人今晚都要过来,我们还需要买很多东西。
B:Fine! What do you need?好吧,你需要什么?
A:OK, pick up some cured meats to go with the wine. Maybe a pound of polish sausages, ham, liverwurst, salami and any other cold cuts that are on sale. I think I saw a promotion for pastrami. Also get some cole slaw and a jar of olives.要买些熟食来做下酒菜。也许得买一磅优质腊肠,火腿,肝泥香肠和其他打折卖的冷切食物。我记得看见催销熏牛肉。还需要买些蔬菜沙拉和一罐橄榄油。
B:Whoa wait a minute! Isn’t that a bit too much? I mean, how much is all of this going to cost!等下,那有点太多了吧?我的意思是,这些食物得花很多钱!
A:Never mind that. Get some dips as well. Get a jar of spinach and blue cheese dip and also some Tzatziki. If they have bean dip get that as well. Last but not least, get some pickles.别管那个。还需买些调味酱。买一罐菠菜和蓝草莓调味酱和一些开胃菜。如果有卖豆酱的也买一些。除此以外,还要买些泡菜。
B:Is that all, your majesty?就这些吗?陛下。
A:Very funny! Get a move on! People will be here any minute.你真逗。快去吧,人们随时都会来。
