地道美語(yǔ)聽力播客:Food for the Barbecue
I moved into the new apartment last month and decided to invite a few friends over for ahouse-warming party . I didn't want to spend the day cooking, so I decided to have abarbeque . The food would be easy to prepare and I could cook it when my friends got here. But first, I had to go get a few things at the supermarket .
I got to the store and got a cart . I started out in the meat department. It wouldn't be abarbeque without hamburgers so I bought some ground beef. I also picked up some chicken breasts and hot dogs . I skipped the seafood counter since I didn't want to bother with fish.
Then, I was off to the produce department. I got some corn on the cob and a lot of vegetables for grilling for my friends who are vegetarians . Then, I was off to the bakerysection. I needed buns for the hamburgers and hot dogs, and I also bought some cookies fordessert .
Then, I was almost done. I went down each aisle looking for the condiments-- the ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise . And, just before wrapping things up, I went to the liquor department and got some beer, wine, and soda. Nearly everyone I invited asked if they could bring something for the party and but I told them no. I would have plenty of food and drink.
That was it. I stood in line at the check-out stand, staring at the magazine rack full oftabloids , until the cashier rang me up. The shopping went off without a hitch . Now, all I have to do is clean my messy apartment. That's the hard part .
