Daniel: Yuck. The carrots taste awful and salty. Hi sis, how do you like them?

May: I like them very much. They are delicious.

Daniel: Well, you can have all my carrots.

May: Daniel, hold on for a minute. What are you trying to pull there?

Daniel: Nothing. Just that I don't care for these carrots.

(Pause briefly)

Daniel: Hi, sis., I saw you buy some chocolate cakes. I am done with the main course. It's about time for some dessert.

May: Oh, you want my chocolate cakes, so to speak!

Daniel: No, no, I'm just thinking of some dessert. And I have had enough carrots.

May: Daniel, carrots contain much Vitamin 1 C. It is good for you.

Daniel: I know, but chocolate cake is even better.

May: Oh, s it! You know you need vegetables. You will end up fat if you don't watch your diet, now.

Daniel: Well, actually, I don't mind eating carrots, but chocolate cakes are much better. You know I was born with a sweet tooth.

丹尼尔：妈呀。这些胡萝卜又难吃又咸。姐姐，你觉得怎样？

阿美：我很喜欢。它们很好吃。

丹尼尔：你可以把我的胡萝卜全吃了。

阿美：等一下，丹尼尔。你又有什么鬼点子啊？

丹尼尔：没有，只是不喜欢这些胡萝卜嘛。

（停了一会）

丹尼尔：嗨，姐姐。我看到你买了一些巧克力蛋糕。我已经吃完主食了，现在是甜点时间。

阿美：哦，也就是说，你想要我的巧克力蛋糕。

丹尼尔：不，不。我只是想要些甜点。我已经吃厌胡萝卜了。

阿美：丹尼尔，胡萝卜含有丰富的维生素C。对你有好处。

丹尼尔：我知道，但是巧克力蛋糕更好。

阿美：不行！你要知道，你需要多吃蔬菜。如果你现在不注意自己的饮食，你会变胖的。

丹尼尔：好吧，事实上，我不介意吃胡萝卜，但是巧克力蛋糕更好些。你知道我天生爱吃甜食。
