實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：Next Step 下一步計劃

George: Where are you working these days?

喬治：你最近在哪里工作?

Crystal: I'm working at the restaurant around the station.

克里斯托爾：我現(xiàn)在在地鐵站附近的一家餐廳工作。

George: What's it like working in a restaurant?

喬治：在餐廳工作怎么樣?

Crystal: Well, it's ... busy times are busy, but boring sometimes. It's just usual work: washing dishes, serving and then that it's pretty much. Not a big deal job. I really like it, but at the same time I'm looking for more. I think I should look for a desk job or something.

克里斯托爾：忙的時候非常忙，不過也有無聊的時候。我做的就是普通的工作：洗碗，上菜，基本上就是這種工作。不是什么重要的工作。我很喜歡這份工作，不過我也在找其他的工作機(jī)會。我想我應(yīng)該找辦公室工作。

George: Oh, a desk job!

喬治：哦，辦公室工作!

Crystal: What about you?

克里斯托爾：你呢?

George: I don't know. Maybe I could work at a ... maybe a clothing store.

喬治：我也不清楚。我可能會在服裝店工作。

Crystal: Oh, really!

克里斯托爾：哦，真的嗎?

George: I do enjoy fashion, and I need to update my wardrobe, so a little discount would be nice.

喬治：我非常喜歡時尚，而且我要升級我的衣櫥，所以要是有折扣就好了。

Crystal: I hear that there's a opening at Bloomingdale's.

克里斯托爾：我聽說布魯明戴爾百貨店有空缺。

George: Oh, awesome!

喬治：哦，太棒了!

Crystal: You should give it a try.

克里斯托爾：你應(yīng)該試試。

George: Maybe. But then again I'm not a very ... I'm not really a people person, though.

喬治：也許吧。不過我并不是一個擅長交際的人。

Crystal: A people person! What do you mean?

克里斯托爾：擅長交際!你是什么意思?

George: I can't just go up to new people and start talking to them. It's a little difficult for me.

喬治：我不太會去和陌生人說話。這對我來說有點兒難。

Crystal: Well, on my point of view, I think that's a little ... sometimes I think that's sort of a little annoying. One time like this lady at the market, she just started talking me, "Oh, this looks good on you!" OK, I don't need that. You know.

克里斯托爾：在我看來，我認(rèn)為這有些……這種做法有些煩人。有一次在市場，一個女售貨員過來跟我說，“哦，你穿這個很漂亮!”我并不需要這種奉承。

George: Yes, they use some very strong mind tricks to get you to buy things.

喬治：對，他們會用很強(qiáng)的心理把戲讓你買東西。

Crystal: Yeah. Well, you're good with mind tricks aren't you?

克里斯托爾：對。你很擅長心理把戲，不是嗎?

George: I'm good at being played by mind tricks, but now good at doing mind tricks.

喬治：我擅長被別人的心理把戲迷惑，但是不擅長對別人用心理把戲。

Crystal: Aye! Well, I guess you still have nine months left.

克里斯托爾：啊!我想你還有九個月的時間。

George: Yeah.

喬治：對。
