范例二:Cool down 冷静
M: I am going to celebrate my birthday with you all in a night club this year, what do you say?
今年我打算和你们所有人在夜总会庆祝我的生日,你们觉得怎样?
W: Fantastic! I enjoy clubbing, especially those clubs with live bands. The only fly in the ointment is that the air is bad, full of smoke, and the music is too loud, so conversations are not really possible. Once I nearly got burnt by a cigarette.
太好了!我喜欢泡夜总会,特别是那些有现场乐队的俱乐部。唯一扫兴的是那里的空气太差了,到处是烟味,音乐太吵了,所以谈话时不太可能的。我有一次还被一根烟烫伤。
M: How did that happen?
怎么发生的?
W: A wild dancer dropped it on my left foot and said nothing about it. If I had drunk enough and I would have had the bold to punch him in the face.
一个狂热的舞者仍到我的左脚上,然后什么都没有说。如果我喝得够醉,我就有勇气一拳打到他脸上。
M: Sounds cool! But that is not what a lady should do. People are easy to lose head in a night club and being drunk.
听起来太酷了!但是这不是一个淑女应该做的。人们在夜总会是很容易失去理智和喝醉的。
