Gucci: It's too expensive. Ten cookies cost a bundle.

May: I noticed that they have Italian buffet upstairs. Maybe we should have chosen that?

Gucci: Let's do it, now.

May: What is the charge of buffet for each person?

Waitress: It depends on your weight. Come on to the scale, please!

Gucci: Interesting! Look, I'm 45kg.

May: Me, 46kg.

Waitress: 50 yuan for each.

Gucci: I love it. Look, they've got everything.

May: Wow, coffee and cheese puddings. Love it.

Gucci: It's the only neat decision we made today!

May: It is. And it's not all bad now.

Gucci: No more for me. I'll all set.

May: Me either. That's the problem about buffet. Always over eating.

Gucci: You can't get everything.

經(jīng)典背誦 Recitation

MayI love buffet. Better yet if it's an Italian buffet. There is one such place, downtown. It's interesting that the customers there would be charged by their weight.The only problem about it is overeating. People just don't know when to stop. Anyway you can't have everything.

生詞小結(jié)

bundle n. 堆，捆

notice vt. 注意

buffet n. 自助餐

cheese n. 奶酪

pudding n. 布丁

注釋

1.Ten cookies cost a bundle.

Bundle本意為“一大堆”，這里指的是“一大堆錢”，中文口語中也有相似的表達(dá)方法，例：“好貴啊，花了我一大堆錢。”

2.You can't get everything.

get在這里的意思是“得到”，直譯為你不能得到每一件東西。（可見總有遺憾。）所以也較容易想到意譯應(yīng)為：做不到十全十美。
