A: Honey, we are all out of wine and cheese. Do you mind running to the deli and picking up a few things?
B: Can’t it wait? I’m watching the game right now!
A: Your friends and family are coming over tonight and we still need to get a lot of things.
B: Fine! What do you need?
A: OK, pick up some cured meats to go with the wine. Maybe a pound of polish sausages, ham, liverwurst, salami and any other cold cuts that are on sale. I think I saw a promotion 1 for pastrami. Also get some cole slaw and a jar of olives 2.
B: Whoa wait a minute! Isn’t that a bit too much? I mean, how much is all of this going to cost!
A: Never mind that. Get some dips as well. Get a jar of spinach 3 and blue cheese dip and also some Tzatziki. If they have bean dip get that as well. Last but not least, get some pickles 4.
B: Is that all, your majesty 5?
A: Very funny! Get a move on! People will be here any minute.

B: 好吧，你需要什么？
A: 要买些熟食来做下酒菜。也许得买一磅优质腊肠，火腿，肝泥香肠和其他打折卖的冷切食物。我记得看见催销熏牛肉。还需要买些蔬菜沙拉和一罐橄榄油。
B: 等下，那有点太多了吧？我的意思是，这些食物得花很多钱！
A: 别管那个。还需买些调味酱。买一罐菠菜和蓝草莓调味酱和一些开胃菜。如果有卖豆酱的也么爱写。除此以外，还要买些泡菜。
