實(shí)用英語(yǔ)對(duì)話:收藏

大衛(wèi)：漢生，聽(tīng)說(shuō)你過(guò)段時(shí)間要去德國(guó)，是嗎?

漢生：對(duì)，去參加一個(gè)國(guó)際研討會(huì)。

大衛(wèi)：真讓人忌妒啊，可以趁這個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)旅旅游、玩一玩。

樂(lè)樂(lè)：是啊!什么時(shí)候我也能有這么好的機(jī)會(huì)啊!

漢生：你們這是站著說(shuō)話不腰疼!你們真以為出去開(kāi)會(huì)好玩啊?什么時(shí)候你們出去開(kāi)一次試試就知道了，又累又無(wú)聊，哪有在家待著舒服啊!

大衛(wèi)：跑來(lái)跑去的確實(shí)不輕松，不過(guò)總比每天上班下班有意思吧!對(duì)了，我有件事要拜托你。

漢生：什么事你說(shuō)，別客氣。

大衛(wèi)：你在德國(guó)喝完的飲料瓶的瓶蓋能不能帶回來(lái)給我?

漢生：你要它干什么啊?

大衛(wèi)：我在收集各種瓶蓋，這是我的新愛(ài)好。

樂(lè)樂(lè)：別人都收集錢(qián)幣、郵票什么的，你怎么收集瓶蓋?也太奇怪了吧?

大衛(wèi)：蘿卜白菜，各有所愛(ài)。瓶蓋也有很多可愛(ài)之處。漢生不是也在收集各種杯子、碗什么的嘛!

樂(lè)樂(lè)：人家那是古董收藏!

漢生：還談不上收藏，只是喜歡而已，等我什么時(shí)候發(fā)財(cái)了再說(shuō)收藏的事吧。

樂(lè)樂(lè)：你們這些愛(ài)好不是太古怪就是太奢侈，而且也沒(méi)什么用。

漢生：大衛(wèi)，你不知道樂(lè)樂(lè)喜歡收集什么吧?冰箱貼。

大衛(wèi)：冰箱貼?

樂(lè)樂(lè)：是啊!我每去一個(gè)地方，都會(huì)買(mǎi)一兩個(gè)冰箱貼回來(lái)，貼在冰箱上特別漂亮，而且還很實(shí)用，比如有的可以在上面記事、留言，有的帶有溫度計(jì)。當(dāng)然了，最重要的是它們能讓我想起曾經(jīng)去過(guò)的那些地方。每次站在冰箱前，就覺(jué)得特別有幸福感和成就感!

大衛(wèi)：如果你們家冰箱貼滿了怎么辦?

樂(lè)樂(lè)：這我倒沒(méi)想過(guò)，那就再買(mǎi)一臺(tái)冰箱唄!

漢生：看來(lái)這愛(ài)好也不便宜呀!

David: Han Sheng, I heard that you'll be going to Germany some time soon, is that right?

HS: Yep, I'll be attending an international seminar over there.

David: I'm really so envious, you can take this chance and tour around, have some fun.

LL: Right! I really wonder when I'll ever get such an opportunity!

HS: That's easy for you to say! Do you really think that it's fun to attend a meeting? Maybe you should try it out, then you'll know. It's tiring and boring, it's so much more comfortable to be at home!

David: Of course running around isn't something relaxing, but it sure beats a monotonous day at work! Say, I need a favor from you.

HS: What about?

David: Can you keep the bottle caps of your drinks in Germany for me?

HS: Whatever do you want them for?

David: I'm collecting different types of bottle caps, this is my latest interest.

LL: People (normally) collect currencies, stamps and what not, why do you collect bottle caps? This is so quirky.

David: Everyone has their own preferences. Bottle caps are charming in their own ways. I think Han Sheng is collecting cups, bowls and things like that!

LL: He's collecting antiques!

HS: Those are not considered collector's items, I just like them, that's all. If I strike it rich one of these days, then we can talk about collector's items.

LL: Your hobbies are not that eccentric, they're just extravagant, and what's more, they're useless.

HS: David, want to know what Le Le collects? Fridge magnets.

David: Fridge magnets?

LL: Right! Every time I go some place, I'll buy a couple of fridge magnets, they look really pretty on the fridge, they're also very practical, we can jot some notes and leave messages on them, one of them even has a thermometer on it. Of course, most importantly, they remind me of all the places I've visited. Every time I stand in front of the fridge, I really feel so blessed. It also gives me a sense of attainment!

David: What are you gonna do when your fridge gets all filled up?

LL: I haven't thought about this before, why, just buy another fridge!

HS: Looks like this hobby isn't cheap!
