本杰明和雪莉今天晚上要去西餐廳吃飯，于是兩個人整個下午都在忙著做準備，尤其是本杰明認真地學起了西餐的餐桌禮儀，來看看效果怎么樣吧。

Listen Read Learn

Benjamin: Honey, which hand should I use to hold the fork?

Shirley: Left for the fork and right for the knife. Just remember that the stronger one is for knife.

Benjamin: Got it. It's so troublesome to have western food. I've been learning the table manners for hours but still can't really it.

Shirley: Sure. Rather than eating, having western food is more about western culture.

Benjamin: Yeah. Which restaurant are we going to tonight?

Shirley: Cindy has reserved a table for us at a newly opened western restaurant downtown. She said the environment there was really pleasant.

Benjamin: Fine. I believe in Cindy's taste. Oh, what should I wear?

Shirley: You should put on the black suit I bought for you last week. But I'm afraid it may be a bit crumpled. You'd better iron it now.

Benjamin: I don't want to mess it up. Please do it for me. I'm going to the bank to cash some money. How much do we need?

Shirley: There is no need to do that. I think the restaurant accepts credit cards. But it's necessary to make a budget.

Benjamin: Honey, you are a good accountant. So I'd better leave that to you, too.

Shirley: It seems that it's all about me. Then what do you do?

Benjamin: I'll take care of the order.

Shirley: OK then. Well, 50 Yuan for appetizer, 200 Yuan for dinner and 200 Yuan for wine. Anything else?

Benjamin: Don't forget about the dessert.

Shirley: OK, then 50 Yuan for dessert. 500 Yuan all together.

聽看學

本杰明: 親愛的，應該用哪只手來拿叉子啊？

雪莉: 左手拿叉右手拿刀。只要記住強壯點的那只手拿刀就可以了。

本杰明: 知道了。吃西餐可真是麻煩啊。我學習這些餐桌禮儀都用了好幾個小時了，可還是沒能真正學會。

雪莉: 當然。吃西餐可不光光是吃，還包含了很多西方文化呢。

本杰明: 是啊。我們今晚去哪家餐廳呢？

雪莉: 辛迪已經(jīng)在市區(qū)新開的一家西餐廳幫我們預定好位置了。她說那里的環(huán)境很不錯。

本杰明: 不錯。我相信辛迪的眼光。哦，我該穿什么衣服呢？

雪莉: 你就穿我上周給你買的那套黑色西服吧。但是我怕它有點皺了。你現(xiàn)在去把它拿出來燙一下。

本杰明: 我不想把它弄得更糟糕。還是你幫我弄吧。我去銀行取點錢。我們大概需要多少錢？

雪莉: 沒有必要那么做的。我想餐廳一定會受理信用卡的。不過倒是有必要作一個預算。

本杰明: 親愛的，你是一個出色的會計。所以我想這事還是留給你吧。

雪莉: 看起來所有的事情都是我在做。那么你做什么呢？

本杰明: 我會負責點餐的。

雪莉: 那好吧。這樣，開胃菜50元，200元正餐，還有200元的酒。還有別的嗎？

本杰明: 別忘了甜點。

雪莉: 行，再加50元的甜點。一共是500元。

So I suppose we will have a wonderful dinner.
