英语交际口语热门话题：准备出门

Todd： Clare, what are your plans for tonight?

克莱尔，你今晚做什么？

Clare： Well, tonight, first of all I'm going to head back home and take a nap because I've got a big night ahead

of me. So, I'm going to be going out quite late, about 11：00 so I'll need my energy, but unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to have much of a rest because it will be probably half past seven (7：30) by the time I get home and I need to start getting ready at about 9：00 so, an hour and a half max.

今晚，首先我要家睡会儿觉，因为我今天要熬夜到很晚。我要很

晚出趟门，大约是晚上11点，所以我需要储存能量，但不幸的是，我不认为我会有时间休息，因为我大概会7点半到家，大约9点钟开始

准备出门，所以我最多只有1个半小时。

Todd： Actually, what do you do to get ready when you go out?

实际上，你准备出门都要做什么？

Clare： Well, have a shower, get changed, and then, play some games.

洗个澡，换身衣服，然后再玩儿会儿游戏。

Todd： OK. What games do you play?

你都玩什么游戏？

Clare： Well, we've recently acquired a pack of giant cards, so we'll be playing some card games with the giant cards.

我们最近新得了一副giant牌，所以我们用它来玩纸牌游戏。

Todd： So, can you like, give a specific game that you play?

你能具体说个纸牌游戏吗？

Clare： Well, I don't know if you know the game "Play

Your Cards Right"

你知不知道一个名叫“Play Your Cards Right”的游戏？

Todd： No, no, how do you play?

不知道，怎么玩？

Clare： It's actually a TV game show. We take it from that. And it's very simple. You have a row of cards that you can't see. And you turn over the first one, and you have to

say whether the next card is going to be higher or lower.

Very simple, so, so you turn over a 10, and you say lower,

and it's a 6, so you carry on. You say, "higher" and it's a 4, and if you're wrong....so as you can imagine, it's very easy

to go wrong.

实际上这个游戏是电视节目上的。我们从那儿学来的。这个游戏

十分简单。在你面前有一排纸牌，但你不能看。你要翻开第一张，然

后预言下一张是比这张点儿大还是点儿小。很简单，如果你第一张翻

开是10点，你预言下一张点数更低，如果翻开是6，点儿更小了，说

对了则继续游戏。如果你说的是“点儿数更高”翻开却是4，那你就预言错了，能够想象这个游戏很容易说错。

Todd： Yeah. It sounds like a good game. Well, have a

good time tonight and good luck in getting ready.

是的。听起来是个有趣的游戏。祝你今晚过得愉快，祝你好运。
