A:I want you to know how much I appreciate these terrific meals you've been cooking. Do you guys always eat this well?我真的很感激你們做這么豐盛的飯菜。你們都經(jīng)常吃這么好嗎?
B:Not really. During the week, we're both busy with our jobs, so there isn't much time to cook anything fancy.并不是這樣。平時我們都忙于工作,所以沒有多少時間烹飪出花樣。
A:We both enjoy cooking and experimenting, so we usually try to fix something special on Sundays.我們都喜歡做飯、嘗試,所以星期天我們都通常試著做些特別的菜。
B:This morning's breakfast was great, scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and orange juice! You surely don't eat that kind of breakfast every day.今天的早餐真是美味,炒蛋、煙肉、烤面包,還有橙汁!你們肯定不是每天都吃這樣的早餐。
A:You're right! We don't. During the week, we usually have cold cereal and maybe a piece of fruit. Neither of us has the time to cook breakfast. Monday through Friday, it's Every man for himself. Don’t worry, though. You’ll never go to bed hungry.你說得對!我們沒有。一周之內(nèi),我們通常吃些冷麥片,大概一片水果。我們都沒有時間做早餐。星期一到星期五,都是個顧個地找些東西吃。 但不要擔(dān)心。你都不會餓著睡覺的。
B:That's true. And dinners are different, anyway. Some nights Marsha will fix a casserole or a pasta dish. Other nights, I like to throw fish or hamburgers onto the grill. And fix a green salad.那倒是真的。不管怎么樣,晚餐就不同。一些晚上馬莎會做個砂鍋或者通心粉。其它幾個晚上,我喜歡把魚或者漢堡牛排扔到烤架上,還弄個蔬菜沙拉。
A:So, you cook every night?那么,你每天晚上都做飯嗎?
B:Well, not every night. Some nights we have leftovers, or maybe we'll just send out for a pizza. We even enjoy going out to a restaurant once in a while.不是每個晚上。一些晚上我們吃剩菜,或許我們就干脆出去吃比薩餅。有時我們甚至喜歡出去到餐館吃。
