Text B Interesting Pictures

“Food really tastes good cooked over an open fire, ”Lloyd remarked as he took another bite of his hot dog.
“在野外做的东西真的很好吃,”Lloyd说着又咬了一口热狗。

“It sure does,” replied Fred.“I wish this weren't the last night of our camping trip, but school starts next week.”
“那当然了,”Fred回答,“我希望这不是我们露营旅行的最后一晚,但下星期就开学了。”

A couple of days after returning home, Lloyd and Fred took the exposed film out of their camera and took it to the camera shop to be developed. They were told that the pictures would be ready Thursday. Thursday was just two days away. Fred and Lloyd could hardly wait to see how their pictures came out. They planned to show their pictures to everyone at school as soon as school was back in session.
回家两天后,Lloyd和Fred把已经感光的胶卷从相机取出来并把它带到照相馆去冲洗。他们被告知照片在星期四就可以取了。离星期四只有两天了,Fred和Lloyd迫不及待地想看到他们拍的照片怎样冲洗出来。他们计划开学后把照片展示给学校的每一个人看。

Fred and Lloyd felt very pleased when they showed their teacher the pictures they had taken on their vacation. She said that they were some of the most interesting pictures she had seen.
当他们把假期拍的照片给老师看后Fred和Lloyd感到非常快乐。她(老师)说这是她看过的一些最有趣的照片。

Read the following passage once. Underline the key words while reading and retell the story to your partner.

Who Waits for Whom?

Mr and Mrs Allen go grocery shopping on Saturday mornings. Mr Allen never enjoys these trips. Mrs Allen does the shopping and he sits in the car and waits for her. This morning there were a lot of people and it took Mrs Allen longer than usual. An hour went by and finally a man came up to Mr Allen. Excuse me, he said, is your name Allen? Your wife is waiting for you at the check-out counter. She doesn't have enough money for the groceries !

常用口语:

1. Would you please set the table? 在家有帮老妈摆过餐桌吗,嘿嘿,这句可以试试哦。

2. at the check-out counter 在购物时经常会碰到的地方,付了钱才能走的,不然保安会拦住你滴。

3. School starts next week.  开学的人伤不起啊,但迟早要来的事呢,现在9月多了,相比都已经适应校园生活了吧,但这句还是很有用的哈。
