Part A

史賓賽和翠西在百貨公司。
(Spencer = S ; Tracy = T)
S: Thanks for coming shopping with me. I really appreciate it.
T: That’s what friends are for. So, what did you give Katherine last Valentine’s Day?
S: I gave her flowers and chocolates. She wasn’t very happy.
T: I don’t blame her. Those gifts don’t take any effort.
S: What do you suggest?
T: How about some nice perfume or good body care products?
S: I don’t know what she likes, so I don’t want to get the wrong thing.
T: Hey! You can get her a really fancy purse. Many women here love them.
Part A
史賓賽:謝謝妳來陪我逛街,我很感激。
翠 西:那就是朋友的意義所在。那麼,去年情人節,你送凱薩琳什麼?
史賓賽:我送她花和巧克力,她不太滿意。
翠 西:我懂她的心情,那些禮物準備起來毫不費力。
史賓賽:妳有什麼建議呢?
翠 西:一些好聞的香水或是不錯的身體護理產品如何?
史賓賽:我不知道她的喜好,所以我不想買到不適合的東西。
翠 西:嘿!你可以送她一個非常別緻的手提包,許多女性就是愛不釋手。
Part B
Spencer and Tracy continue their search.
史賓賽和翠西繼續尋找。
(Spencer = S ; Tracy = T)
S: What Valentine’s Day gifts do you give Morgan?
T: I make things like cupcakes and photo albums of us. I also design and make my own valentines.
S: That’s terrific! How does Morgan take them?
T: He says he loves them, but he seems a little bored with them.
S: He’s a fool. I’d take those over a wallet.
T: I’d like to do something different this year. Do you have any ideas?
S: Morgan’s into sports, so tickets to a sporting event would be good.
T: Yeah, wow, I never thought of that.
Part B
史賓賽:妳都送摩根什麼情人節禮物?
翠 西:我製作杯子蛋糕和兩人相簿之類的東西,我還設計並自己做情人節卡片。
史賓賽:那超棒的!摩根怎麼看呢?
翠 西:他說他很喜歡,但是他似乎有點厭倦那些東西。
史賓賽:他是個傻瓜,我會選擇那些而不是皮夾。
翠 西:今年我想要來點不一樣的,你有任何想法嗎?
史賓賽:摩根非常喜歡體育運動,所以體育賽事的門票可能不錯。
翠 西:對耶,哇,我從沒想過那個。
