铺地板
dialogue
英语情景对话
A:I think we should do the floors before we work on the curtains and walls.
A:我想在着手弄窗帘和墙壁前，我们应该先来弄地板。
B:Why? it doesn't make sense. If we do the floors first, and then paint the walls, we will get paint all over our new floor.
B:为什么？不太合理。如果我们先弄地板，然后再粉刷墙，我们会把新地板弄得到处是漆。
A:Hmm Maybe you're right. But I can't stand all this green carpet here. And besides, I know how to paint. I will just cover everything with drop cloth. I won't get anything on the floor.
A:嗯，也许你是对的，但是我不能忍受这里的绿色地毯。此外，我知道怎么油漆，我会用塑胶布铺好所有东西，不会让地板沾上任何东西的。
B:Are you sure?
B:你确定吗？
A:Yes, I'm sure. I've done a lot of house painting in my life. And my mother was very picky. If I got even atiny drop of paint on her furniture, she would get furious 1. So I learned 2 to be very careful.
A:是的，我确定。我刷过很多次的房屋油漆，而且我妈还非常挑别的。如果我在她的家具上沾上一小滴油漆，她就会大发雷霆，所以我学会很小心。
铺地板
B:Alright. Then maybe we can do the floor first. These wood floors under this carpet are beautiful. And me too - I can't wait to get all this old carpet out of here. But how can we get it out? Do we have to hire someone?
B:好吧，那也许我们可以先弄地板。这些在地毯下的木制地板蛮美的，而且我也等不及要把这旧的地毯弄走。但是，怎么能把它弄出去呢？我们要请人吗？
A:Absolutely not. We can remove the carpet ourselves. Carpet is held down with carpet nails 3. You just need to pull it hard and it will come up.
A:绝对不用，我们可以自己移动地毯。地毯是用地毯钉固定的，你只需要用力地拔，它就出来了。
B:Great. Then, after we remove the carpet, we need to redo all the wood floors. Right?
B:太棒了。那我们搬完地毯后，需要维修所有的木制地板，对不对？
A:Yes. But we should hire someone for that. That will probably be expensive. And it has to be done right.
A:是的，但是我们应该雇用别人来做。可能会很贵，而且要做对才行。
B:And then, after the floors are done, we can start to move our furniture in.
B:然后，地板弄完后，我们可以开始搬家具进去。
A:Sure. If we can get an appointment with someone to do the floors, we should probably be able to have the furniture in here after a week or so. I can get all the carpet out this weekend.
A:好啊。如果我们和人约好要弄地板，大概可以在一周后把家具放好。我在这个周末会把所有地毯都弄出去。
