英語(yǔ)趣味課堂：視覺(jué)藝術(shù)-Visual Arts
Jason: That's right, yep.
Todd: What kind of artist are you?
Jason: I draw all sorts of things, but mostly I like to draw on the computer, using photoshop.
Todd: Oh, really.
Jason: Things like that.
Todd: OK, was it hard to learn?
Jason: Oh, not really. It's just practice. You know if you feel like you want to draw one day, thatmeans you're an artist I guess.
Todd: Wow, I didn't even know that, I mean I do pictures for the web site, but I didn't know you could draw on the computer.
Jason: Yeah, yeah, that's right. I've made my own web site as well, so.
Todd: Cool. OK, what's the web site address?
Jason: www.geocities.com/replicated280781
Todd: OK.
Jason: A bit of a mouthful though.
Todd: Yeah, I'll have to write that one down. That's pretty tough.
Jason: No worries. OK.
Todd: So when people go to your web site what can they see?
Jason: Not a hell of a lot but I did draw everything on there myself, every button every single piece of graphic you see on there I drew, just photographs of me, my friends, drawings that I've done and posted up and not really much else, but it's good if you just want to check it out. Check some photos out.
Todd: 'm sure it's great. Actually I'm going to check it out later tonight. So, I'll link it from my web page to your web page.
Jason: OK.
Todd: Is it OK if people write you?
Jason: Sure. Not a problem. Not a problem. I'd enjoy it.

What do you feel is the right thing to do?

In this sentence 'mouthful' implies that the address is either a lot to say or difficult to say. Notice the following:
Although it was a mouthful, the server at the restaurant repeated our order.
Her name was quite a mouthful.

My drawings are on the web site.
A 'drawing' is a pictured created by a person using their hands and many connected lines. Drawings are the work of an artist. Notice the following:

check out
