W: You have a lovely house, Jack.
M: Thank you. But a number of things have been going wrong lately.
W: That's too bad. What problems are you having.
M: Oh, the whole house needs re-painting for starters. The carpet in the living room is worn out, and I'd like to put in new wall-to-wall carpeting. Last week, I had to call the plumber to fix the toilet. Anyway, all par for the course when you own a house, I guess. I think I am going to hire an interior decorator to look the place over.
W: I’ve studied home decoration as a hobby. Could I make some suggestions?
M: Go right ahead.
W: Well, I think a crystal chandelier would look great in your living room, and maybe some new drapes for the windows. Also, a grandfather clock would look great in the den. Perhaps you could buy some potted plants for the dining room
M: Well, you really do have a talent for this, Alice. Thanks for the suggestions.
W: You are welcome, Jack. Glad to be of help.

譯：
W：杰克，你的房子真不錯。
M：謝謝，但是最近有很多地方出了問題。
W：那可太糟了，出什么問題了？
M：哦，剛剛住進(jìn)來，整個房子都需要重新粉刷，起居室里的地毯也已經(jīng)很舊了，我想把整個地板鋪一層新的。上星期，我不得不打電話找水管工來修理廁所。不管怎么說，如果你有一間房子，我覺得這都是最尋常不過的事，我看我要請一個室內(nèi)工程師來看看這個地方。
W：我曾感興趣學(xué)過室內(nèi)裝飾，我能給你提一些建議嗎？
M：太棒了，請講。
W：啊，我覺得在起居室里裝一盞水晶燈會很漂亮，另外呢，可能需要一些新的落地窗簾來裝飾窗戶。還有，書房里放一盞大座鐘會很漂亮的，你還可以買一些盆栽裝飾餐廳。
M：哇噻，你在這方面，可真是有天賦啊，愛麗絲。謝謝你的建議。
W：不客氣，杰克。很高興能幫助你。
注釋：
1． 詞組“wear out”表示“用壞、用破、用舊”，其中“wear”一詞的過去式和過去分詞分別是“wore”和“worn”。
2． 本段對話中出現(xiàn)了很多固定用法，如“wall-to wall整個地板鋪滿的”、“grandfather clock有擺的落地大座鐘”和“potted plant盆栽”。
