英语课
Mike: We're going to the beach, not on an expedition to the Antarctic. Come on. Let's get going.
Amanda: Just hang on a sec! I've got to make sure we have all the essential items needed for a good time.
Mike: Judging by the pile of stuff by the door, it will be a while before we're ready to make a move. In my opinion, all you need is a hat and some sunscreen. I don't see the need for much else.
Amanda: Well, that's what you said last time, but I seem to recall you loved basking 2 on the inflatable raft I packed. And don't get me started about that time last year when you hustled 4 me out the door so quickly that I forgot the towels.
Mike: Okay. I get your point. Well, if we're not leaving for a while, I'll busy myself with the task of making salami sandwiches. I know you like a snack when you're sunbathing 5.
Amanda: Great idea. After you've done that look over the pile, as you put it, to see if I've missed anything.
Mike: Well, off the top of my head, I'd say you've forgotten the change we need for the meter in the car park.
Amanda: You know what? I think you might be right.
