實(shí)戰(zhàn)口語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話：Best and Worst Gifts 最好的禮物和最差的禮物(1)

Todd: Jen, we're talking about gifts. We were talking about giving gifts before. Now let's talk about receiving gifts. What is the best and worst gift you have received?

托德：珍，我們來(lái)談?wù)劧Y物。我們之前談?wù)撨^(guò)送禮物?，F(xiàn)在我們來(lái)談?wù)勈斩Y物。你收到的最好和最差的禮物分別是什么?

Jen: Why don't you go first.

珍：為什么你不先說(shuō)說(shuō)呢。

Todd: Sure. Mine is easy. My step-father made a basketball hoop for me in our driveway. He made it for my birthday. It was pretty cool because, he put it up in one day. I had a car at that time, so I would have seen him making it, but I just came home one day, and there was a big basketball hoop with a big bow around it. It was on my birthday, and it was great. I used it every day and I had nieces and nephews. They used it. I had all my friends in the neighborhood come over. We had basketball tournaments. It was a really good gift.

托德：好。我的回答很簡(jiǎn)單。我繼父在我家的車道上為我做了一個(gè)籃球架。那是他送我的生日禮物。那非?？幔幸惶焖鸦@球架立在了車道上。當(dāng)時(shí)我有輛車，我本來(lái)可以看到他為我支起籃球架，可是我沒(méi)有看到過(guò)程，我回家時(shí)看到了一個(gè)很大的籃球架，旁邊還有一個(gè)大的蝴蝶結(jié)。那是我的生日禮物，簡(jiǎn)直太棒了。我每天都會(huì)用那個(gè)籃球架打籃球，我有侄子和侄女，他們也會(huì)在那里打籃球。我會(huì)邀請(qǐng)附近所有的朋友過(guò)來(lái)玩。我們會(huì)進(jìn)行籃球比賽，那真是非常好的禮物。

Jen: That's really cool. It's so nice of him that he would go through all that, and give you such a special gift.

珍：那太酷了。他送你籃球架而且還裝好了，他人真是太好了，送了一件非常特別的禮物。

Todd: Yeah. The funny thing about it is, I think he really regretted it because, he wasn't thinking how loud a basketball would be when you bounce it. So when you would bounce the basketball, it made this really loud noise, echoing sound down the street. My dad was great. He was really cool.

托德：對(duì)。有趣的是，我想他感到很后悔，因?yàn)樗恢阑@球彈跳的聲音有多大。在地上拍籃球時(shí)，會(huì)發(fā)出非常大的聲音，那個(gè)聲音會(huì)在整條街回響。我爸爸人很好，他非?？?。

Jen: That's really nice.

珍：那真不錯(cuò)。

Todd: Yeah. It was nice. So how about you? Do you have a really special gift?

托德：對(duì)，很不錯(cuò)。你呢?你有收到過(guò)特別的禮物嗎?

Jen: For me, my special gift would be, my mom once made a suit. A pair of socks for me. They were really cute with little flowers on the right side of the socks. I would wear them every day when I was a kid. I thought that was really special. I still have them in my bag.

珍：對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，特別的禮物是，我媽媽曾做過(guò)一個(gè)套裝……她給我做過(guò)一雙襪子。那雙襪子非?？蓯?ài)，右側(cè)有小小的花朵。我小時(shí)候每天都穿那雙襪子，我認(rèn)為那非常特別?，F(xiàn)在我仍把襪子裝在包里。

Todd: Oh really? Wow.

托德：哦，真的嗎?哇哦。

Jen: Yeah. Winter is coming. I'm going to use it again.

珍：對(duì)。冬天就要來(lái)了，我馬上要就要穿那雙襪子了。

Todd: Socks wear out pretty easily. You've really kept them in good condition.

托德：襪子很容易穿壞。看起來(lái)你保存的很好。

Jen: Yeah. She probably used really good wool because, it's still there, and I still wear it a lot.

珍：對(duì)?？赡芩玫氖呛芎玫难蛎疫€留著那雙襪子，我也經(jīng)常穿。
