梅格:嗨,托德。你今天忙嗎?
Todd: Yeah. I am so busy. Last night, I had a party and now my house is so dirty, and I need to clean my house.
托德:忙。我非常忙。昨晚我辦了個(gè)派對(duì),現(xiàn)在我家里非常臟亂,我要打掃一下。
Meg: Wow. Where will you start cleaning?
梅格:哇哦。你要從哪里開(kāi)始打掃?
Todd: Well, everywhere in the house is dirty, so the kitchen is very dirty. The living room is dirty. But I think, first, I'll do the kitchen. I have to throw away all the old food. We have lots of trash from the party. And then I have to wipe the counters. We have food all over the counters. And then of course, I have to wash the dishes and put everything away.
托德:我家里所有地方都很臟,廚房很臟,客廳也很臟。我想我要先從廚房開(kāi)始打掃。我必須把所有剩下的食物都扔掉。派對(duì)制造了很多垃圾。然后我要擦洗柜臺(tái)。上面全是食物。當(dāng)然之后我要洗碗碟,把東西都收拾好。
Meg: Wow. It sounds like it was quite a party.
梅格:哇哦。聽(tīng)起來(lái)這個(gè)派對(duì)很棒。
Todd: Yeah, it was. Well, we ordered pizza but also everybody brought food. And so, we had lots of food and everybody left their dishes and pots at my house after they went home. So I have everyone's dishes, and pots and plastic containers. So I feel I should clean everything and then give it back to everybody.
托德:對(duì),沒(méi)錯(cuò)。我們叫了批薩,而且所有人都帶了食物過(guò)來(lái)。我們有很多吃的,所有人回家時(shí),都把盤(pán)子和罐子留在了我家。所以我家里有所有人的盤(pán)子、罐子還有塑料包裝盒。我感覺(jué)我要把所有東西清洗一下,然后還給他們。
Meg: Hmm, that sounds like a good idea. Did anyone drop any food on the floor?
梅格:嗯,這聽(tīng)起來(lái)是個(gè)好主意。有人把食物掉在地板上嗎?
Todd: Yeah. Actually, they dropped food everywhere. So I have to vacuum the carpet in the living room and I need to mop the kitchen floor. So I think I need about three hours just to clean the entire house.
托德:有。實(shí)際上,他們把食物掉的到處都是。所以我要用吸塵器清潔客廳的地毯,我還要把廚房的地拖一下。我想我需要三個(gè)小時(shí)才能打掃完整個(gè)房子。
Meg: Oh, three hours? Can I help you clean?
梅格:哦,三個(gè)小時(shí)?我?guī)湍愦驋甙?
Todd: Well, actually yeah, if you can, I really need help. But if you can just collect the trash. I have some trash bags and go around and collect all the plastic cups. There are many plastic cups, and collect pizza boxes and maybe get the old food and throw away the old food, that would be great.
托德:實(shí)際上,如果你愿意的話,我的確需要幫忙。你幫忙收集垃圾就好。我有垃圾袋,你要把所有塑料杯收集起來(lái)。塑料杯太多了,如果你可以收集塑料杯、批薩包裝盒,然后把所有剩下的食物扔掉,那就太好了。
Meg: Sure. I can collect the cups and throw away the old food. Is there anything else you need me to do?
梅格:可以。我可以收集塑料杯,把剩下的食物扔掉。還有其他需要我?guī)兔Φ膯?
Todd: Well yeah, actually. If you have time, can you go to the store and buy some cleaning supplies? I need dish soap to wash the dishes, and I need window cleaner to clean the windows.
托德:實(shí)際上,有。如果你有時(shí)間,你能去商店買(mǎi)些清潔用品嗎?我需要洗潔精來(lái)洗碗碟,我還需要清潔窗戶的擦窗器。
Meg: But window cleaner? Why the windows?
梅格:擦窗器?為什么要清潔窗戶?
Todd: Well, it was a very crazy party, and you don't want to know.
托德:因?yàn)槟鞘且粋€(gè)非常瘋狂的派對(duì),你不會(huì)想知道的。
Meg: Uh-oh.
梅格:啊哦。
