当天午后,Susan 和Harry 以及Michelle在南大街海港口的一家餐厅吃饭。
一盘蟹肉色拉勾起了Michelle对幸福家庭的追忆。
Waiter: Welcome to the South Street Restaurant , folks. What'll
it be ?
Harry : What do you recommend?
Waiter: Well , the crab salad's always a big hit. Harry : Susan,
would you like the crab salad ?
Susan : I'd love the crab salad. Harry : Michelle , would you like
to try the crab salad , too?
Michelle: OK , Daddy. Harry : We'll have the three crab salads
and a pitcher of lemonade. Waiter : Help yourself to celery and carrots
and other vegetables. Harry : We used to catch crabs. Susan: Where was
that?
Harry : We had a summer house on Fire Island. Do you remember, Michelle?
Michelle: Sure. You and Mommy used to take me on the ferryboat. Harry
: Sometimes, at night , we would go down to the beach and catch crabs,
remember?
Michelle: With a piece of meat on a string !
Harry : Right. Well, I think I'm going to get us all some vegetables.
[Harry leaves the table. The waiter arrives and sets down their food.]
Waiter: There you go. Susan: Thank you. Waiter: And some ice-cold lemonade.
Susan : Thank you. Waiter: Enjoy it.
「语言点精讲」
1. Welcome to the South Street Restaurant , folks. What'll it be ?
欢迎到南大街餐厅来,各位。想用点儿什么?
Welcome to sp.:欢迎来到某地。
What'll it be ?:你们想来点什么?在这里相当于“What would you like
to eat(drink )?”这是侍者问顾客的常用句子之一。
2. Well , the crab salad's always a big hit. 哦,蟹肉沙拉总是很受
欢迎。
crab:螃蟹。
a big hit :指的是很受欢迎的(菜等)。
3. We'll have the three crab salads and a pitcher of lemonade.我们
要三个蟹肉沙拉和一大瓶柠檬汁。
We‘ll have …:我要要点…。这是点菜时常用的句子pitcher :指的是一
种有嘴和柄的水罐。
lemonade:柠檬汁。
4. Help yourself to celery and carrots and other vegetables.芹菜、
胡萝卜和别的蔬菜,请随便自己取用。
help(yourself) to :这里指请自己取用。
5. We used to catch crabs.我们过去常去捉螃蟹。
used to do sth. :过去常常做某事。又如Michelle说的:You and Mommy
used to take me on the ferryboat. (你和妈妈常带我坐渡船去。)
6. Sometimes, at night , we would go down to the beach and catch
crabs , remember ?
有时在夜里我们就到海滩上去捉螃蟹,你还记得吗?
would go:过去常去。与used to 一样, would指过去的习惯。用would 时,
通常指一段特定时间里常常发生的事。
7. There you go.这是你们要的。你们点的东西来了。当食物或饮料端上桌
时,侍者常说的句子。也可以说: Here you are.本情景中出现的“What'll it
be?”“There you go. ”以及“Enjoy it. ”都属于中低档餐馆侍者的口吻,
比较随便。
8. And some ice-cold lemonade.还有冰凉的柠檬汁。
ice-cold:冰凉的。相当于“very cold ”。
