[03:46.39]请进。随便点,别客气。
[03:48.21]B:Thanks.You have a beautiful place.
[03:49.52]谢谢。你这地方真漂亮。
[03:50.84]A:I'm glad you like it.The furniture's in pretty bad condition,though.We should get rid of it.It really looks bad in this new house.
[03:55.73]很高兴你喜欢,尽管家具很糟糕。我们应该丢掉它,新房子里放旧家具实在有些难看。

[04:02.86]别丢。家具挺舒适的。你有孩子吧?
[04:05.11]A:Yes,we do.Two boys and a girl.Not to mention two dogs and a cat.
[04:07.60]是啊。两个男孩和一个女孩。而且还有两只狗和一只猫。
[04:10.10]So we have to make do with this furniture.As long as the children are small,anyway.It doesn't make sense to replace it.
[04:15.19]就是因为孩子们太小了,所以我们不得不留着这些家具。丢掉了没有多大意义。
[04:20.28]B:I know what you mean.Our children are hard on furniture,too.They are always jumping up and down on the sofa or spilling food on my chairs.
[04:25.31]我懂你的意思。我家孩子也是不爱惜家具。他们总是在沙发上蹦来蹦去,要不就把饭撒在椅子上。
[04:30.34]A:They sound just like my children.
[04:31.48]他们跟我的孩子们差不了多少。
[04:32.61]B:Maybe we should get them all together to play with each other some afternoon.
[04:34.87]也许我们该找一个下午让他们聚在一起玩一玩。
[04:37.13]A:That's a great idea!
[04:38.15]这个主意可真好!
[04:39.17]5.Let's Make the Most of Our Weekend

[05:05.21]好啊。不过我想星期五走,我星期四要把车修好。
[05:08.11]A:All right.We can take turns driving.
[05:09.88]好吧,我们可以轮流开车。
[05:11.64]B:Fine.We won't get so tired that way.
[05:13.08]不错。这样我们就不会太黑。
[05:14.51]A:I'm looking forward to seeing New York.I've never been there,but I have always wanted to go.
[05:18.51]我真盼望看到纽约啊。我从来没去过,但一直就想去。
[05:22.51]B:I haven't either.Let's make the most of our weekend.
[05:24.52]我也是。让我们尽情享受周末吧。
[05:26.53]A:We can go sightseeing during the day.In the evening we can go to a play.Do you think we can get tickets?
[05:30.15]我们白天可以去观光。晚上就去看表演。你说我们会买到票吗?
[05:33.77]B:I don't think we stand a chance.It's hard to get tickets on weekends.Anyway,we can try.
[05:37.20]我想我们买不到。周末买票太难了。不管怎样,还是试一下吧。
[05:40.64]A:It doesn't matter.There are hundreds of things to do in New York,especially during a holiday.
[05:43.86]不要紧。纽约有那么多事可做呢,尤其是在周末。
[05:47.09]B:You're right!Whatever we do,we are sure to have good time.
[05:49.34]对!不管我们做什么,都会玩得很尽兴的。

[06:02.71]嗨,莉莉。你为什么事这么生气?
[06:04.36]A:I'm furious with Jenny!She's always late.
[06:06.30]珍妮快气死我了!她总是迟到。
[06:08.25]B:Always?Why don't you talk it over with her?Encourage her to be on time,or tell her how much it annoys you?
[06:12.83]总是?你为什么不和她好好谈一谈,鼓励她准时一点,或者告诉她你对这件事很恼火呢?
[06:17.42]A:Look!I've talked till I'm blue in the face.It's out of the question.
[06:19.91]告诉你!我已经费尽口舌,却毫无成效。要说服她真的是不可能的。
[06:22.41]B:There must be something you can do.
[06:23.50]你一定会有办法的。
[06:24.60]A:I doubt it.Last night we went to a concert.Do you know what time we got there?Just in time to go out of the intermission!We missed half of the show!
[06:30.37]我很怀疑这一点。昨晚我们去听音乐会。你知道我们什么时候到的吗?正好赶上中间的休息时间,我们误了一半!
[06:36.15]B:I guess you're just wasting your breath then.Time means nothing to Jenny.
[06:38.92]那我想你确实是徒劳了。时间对珍妮来说是没有用的。
[06:41.68]A:You're right.I guess I should just stop doing things with her.
[06:44.08]是啊。我想我以后不跟她交往了。
[06:46.47]B:You don't have to go that far.Just don't waste your time waiting for her.
[06:49.16]你倒没必要那么过分。只要别再浪费时间等她就行了。
[06:51.85]A:I guess you're right.I could just tell her to meet me at the restaurant or moive.
[06:54.69]我想你说得对。那我就让她在饭馆或是电影院等我。
[06:57.54]B:Right.Then if she's late,you know,it's her problem not yours.
[07:00.73]对。那样的话,她若迟到就是她的问题而与你无关。
[07:03.92]A:Thanks for your advice!I appreciate it!
[07:05.35]谢谢你的建议。非常感谢!

[07:18.43]我下巴疼。我也不知道是怎么回事。
[07:20.01]B:Let me take a look.No wonder it hurts!One of your teeth looks decayed.You'd better see a dentist right away.
[07:24.49]让我看一看。难怪疼呀!你有颗牙齿坏了。最好马上去看牙医。
[07:28.97]A:Do you think I have to?I've been putting it off for weeks.To tell the honest truth,dentists scare me to death.
[07:33.39]一定要去吗?我都拖了好几个星期了。说实话,我害怕牙医怕得要死。
[07:37.82]I get cold feet when I have to go to one.Even thinking of it makes me shake.
[07:40.53]每次去到那里我就紧张得不得了。就连想到牙医我都不寒而栗。
[07:43.23]B:Don't be silly.You'd be better off seeing one.I'll make an appointment for you.Only a fool is afraid of the dentist!
[07:48.22]别犯傻了。你还是要看医生的。我来帮你预约。只有傻子才怕见牙医呢!
[07:53.21]A:Okay.I might as well go.But find me one who doesn't hurt!
[07:56.30]好。还是去吧。不过帮我找一个看牙不疼的牙医哦!
[07:59.40]B:Come on.I'm your best friend.You can count on me.There's nothing to be afraid of.
[08:02.47]好啦。我是你最好的朋友,你就放心吧。没有什么可害怕的。
[08:05.54]A:Well,if you say so,I'll take your word for it.
[08:08.23]好吧,既然你这么说,我就照你说的做。

[08:15.84]嗨,比尔。你什么时候回来的?
[08:17.08]B:About an hour ago.What's new?Did anyone call for me while I was out?
[08:19.89]回来有一个小时了。怎么样?我不在的时候有没有人打电话找我?
[08:22.70]A:Yeah,someone named Johnson called this afternoon.He left word for you to call him.He's at the Holiday Inn Hotel.You can get in touch with him there.
[08:27.96]有一个叫约翰的下午打电话过来。他要你给他回电话。他住在假日酒店。你可以打那里的电话联系到他。
[08:33.23]B:Oh,that's my old friend from college,Dave Johnson.I knew he was coming to town.I didn't expect him today,though.I must have got mixed up on the dates.What a great surprise!
[08:41.40]哦,那是我的大学同窗好友戴维·约翰逊。我知道他要过来。不过没想到是今天。我一定是把日子搞混了。真是个天大的惊喜!
[08:49.58]A:Should we ask him to our party tonight?
[08:51.02]我们要不要请他来参加今晚的聚会?
[08:52.45]B:I'd like to.But we've already invited twenty people and the apartment is pretty small.
[08:55.30]我是这么想。但是我们已经邀请了二十个人,房子又很小。
[08:58.15]A:Don't worry.We can always make room for one more.The more the merrier,you know.
[09:01.23]别担心。多一个还是不成问题的。人越多越开心嘛。
[09:04.31]B:That's true.And the other guests will like Dave.He's very friendly,and he always has funny stories and jokes to tell.
[09:08.82]没错。其他客人们也会喜欢戴维的。他很友善,而且总是逗大家笑。
[09:13.33]A:Be sure to tell him not to dress up.It's a casual party,you know.
[09:15.81]告诉他不要穿得太隆重。你知道这是个非正式的聚会。
[09:18.29]B:Okay.I'll go pick Dave up.He doesn't know this city.He might lose his way coming alone.
[09:21.71]好的。我开车去接他。他不熟悉这个城市,一个人来可能会迷路的。
[09:25.13]A:Okay,I'll stay here and finish getting things ready for the party.
[09:27.33]好吧,我留在这里准备聚会的事。
[09:29.52]B:Sounds great.I'll see you later then.

[09:54.22]是的,还不错。我喜欢他。尽管我的观点与他的不尽相同,我还是非常敬佩他。
[09:58.60]A:There's one good thing about him:he isn't behind the times.He knows this is the 21st century.
[10:02.28]他其中的一个好处是:他不落伍。他知道这是21世纪了。

[10:11.75]我喜欢他做事果断。从一开始,他就是一个实干家。他不会把时间浪费在谈论问题上。他喜欢解决问题。
[10:17.53]A:That's true.He made a point of going to work immediately.The city has made a lot of progress since he's been the mayor.
[10:22.22]的确。他目的一明确,即刻就工作。自从他上任以来,这个城市已经有了很大的改观。
[10:26.91]B:He's very independent.He doesn't rely on others.He finds out everything first hand.Then he takes steps to improve the situation.That's what I admire in a leader.

[10:41.36]他是这一工作的最好人选。

[10:53.45]我把它忘到了九霄云外
[10:55.46]A:Hi,Kim.How's it going?I've got a problem.
[10:57.18]嗨,金姆。进展如何?我遇到了点麻烦。
[10:58.89]B:What's bothering you,Stone?You look stressed.
[11:00.62]石头,是什么事让你心烦?你看上去心事重重的。
[11:02.36]A:I always bite off more than I can chew.I agreed to speak at an international conference in Shanghai next Monday.Now I won't be able to do it.
[11:08.02]我总是试图做自己做不来的事。我答应下星期一在上海的一个国际性大会上讲话。现在没法去了。
[11:13.67]B:Why not?What happened?
[11:14.86]为什么呢?怎么回事呀?
[11:16.05]A:I'm going to Beijing that day.I have an important speech and TV interview there.I forgot all about it.
[11:19.81]那天我刚好要去北京。我有一个非常重要的演讲和电视采访。我全给忘了。
[11:23.57]I don't have the heart to tell the conference now.It's the second time I've done this.How can I save face?I feel terrible.
[11:28.97]现在,我没有勇气告诉上海方面。这可是第二回了。我怎么才能挽回面子呢?我觉得糟透了。
[11:34.36]B:Don't worry about it.They'd have to search high and low to find a better speaker.And they know it.They need someone who can speak good English and Chinese.
[11:39.99]别担心。他们会到别处去找个更好的演讲者。而且他们也会理解的。他们需要一个能说一口流利的英语和汉语的人。
[11:45.62]A:Thank you.But I doubt that.I'm sure they'd prefer someone who keeps his word.I've got to talk to my assistant.He's always messing up my schedule!
[11:51.30]谢谢。但我对此表示怀疑。我想他们宁愿要一个守信用的人。我要找我的助手谈谈。他总是把我的计划打乱!
[11:56.98]B:Forgot it.They know you're not leading them on.They'll ask you again,I'm sure.These things often happen.You're a busy guy.
[12:01.83]得了吧。他们知道你不是骗他们的。我确信他们还会再请你的。这种事常有,你也很忙。
[12:06.67]A:Thanks for saying that,Kim.I feel a lot better.
[12:08.42]金姆,谢谢你这么说。我觉得好多了。
[12:10.17]B:That's what friends are for.Besides,I'm sure it's not easy being so famous!
[12:13.43]这是朋友之间应该做的。再说,名人也不是好当的!
[12:16.68]11.Don't Beat around the Bush
[12:18.69]不要拐弯抹角
[12:20.70]A:I've been waiting for an hour!Where have you been?

[12:24.05]B:I got stuck in traffic on the way back from Joe's office.
[12:26.12]我在从乔的办公室回来的路上遇到了塞车。

[12:31.49]好吧。确切地告诉我乔都说了些什么。别拐弯抹角。直截了当地说出来。
[12:34.78]B:Hold your horses!I'll tell you in a minute.Let me catch my breach.I just got here and I told you traffic was terrible.
[12:39.81]耐心地等一下!待会儿就告诉你。让我先缓口气。我刚到这儿,而且我告诉你了,交通阻塞。
