K:Are we late? Do we have enough time to make it to Bremen today?
凱西:我們遲了嗎?今天我們有足夠的時間到達不來梅嗎?
E:No problem. It's 3:00 p.m. now so I estimate it will take us about three more hours to hit Bremen. We can have dinner and then find a motel. We can luxuriate for a change.
艾凡:沒問題?,F(xiàn)在是下午三點,所以我估計,到不來梅我們大約要再開三個小時的車。我們可以在那里吃完晚餐后再找一家汽車旅館。我們可以換個方式奢侈一下。
K:In a motel?
凱西:住汽車旅館?
E:"Beggars can't be choosers." We can't afford to stay in a Holiday Inn or a Hilton; that's for sure!
艾凡:“人在屋檐下,焉得不低頭。”我們住不起假日旅館或希爾頓飯店,這點是確定的。
K:Yeah, OK. But first let's take care of our picnic spot. We left a lot of junk here.
凱西:嗯,好吧。但是,咱們還是先來清理一下野餐地點吧。我們留了一大堆垃圾在這里。
E:I'll shake out the towel, and you can put away the leftovers.
艾凡:我來把大毛巾抖一抖,你可以收拾吃剩的東西。
K:There aren't any leftovers! You ate everything.
凱西:沒有任何吃剩的東西!你把所有的東西都吃光了。
E:We ate everything.
艾凡:是我們把東西都吃光了。
K:Look! There's a trash can over there by the side of the road. We can put our trash in it.
凱西:瞧!路邊那兒有一個垃圾桶。我們可以把垃圾丟到那個垃圾桶去。
E:Great. Then we don't have to carry it with us.
艾凡:太好了。那我們就不用自己帶著這些垃圾了。
K:OK. I think that's everything. Let's leave this place the way we found it.
凱西:好了。我想就這樣了。咱們就讓這個地方保持我們發(fā)現(xiàn)它時的樣子吧。
E:Kathy, I like your style.
艾凡:凱西,我喜歡你的風格。
K:You're not too bad yourself, Evan.
