  英语情景对话
  A:What else should we do now after the floors are done and after the furniture is in?
  A:地板弄完,家具放好后我们还要做什么呢?
  B:We need to redo the curtains and paint all the walls and ceilings1.
  B:我们需要重做窗帘和油漆所有的墙壁及天花板。
  A:I'm the painter. You can be in charge of going to curtain shops to choose curtains. That will probably be pretty expensive too. Having good curtains made isn't cheap.
  A:我是油漆工,你可以负责去窗帘店挑窗帘。那可能也会很贵,要订做好的窗帘不可能便宜。
  B:You mean we can't just buy curtains already made?
  B:你是说我们不能买成品窗帘?
  A:Absolutely not. The windows must be measured, and then the curtains need to be made professionally2. So that will take awhile. Maybe a month or so.
  A:绝对不行。必须先量好这些窗户,再特地制作窗帘,这可能会花上一段时问,也许要一个月左右。
  B:While the curtains are being made, I can start having people look at the kitchen. I can't stand that old kitchen. I won't be able to cook there. I don't want to use that electric stove.
  B:做窗帘期间,我可以开始请人来勘查厨房。我受不了那个老旧的厨房,我没法在里面烹煮东西,我不想用那个电炉。
  简约舒适的装修
  A:We need to find an interior3 decorating company to redecorate the kitchen. I believe in Portland there are shops that specialize4 in kitchen renovation5. I will look in the Yellow Pages. I'd like a kitchen mostly in ivory6 and light green.
  A:我们需要找一家室内装潢公司来整修厨房。我相信在波特兰会有一些专门整修厨房的店,我会翻一下黄页。我想要一间大部分是象牙色和浅绿色的厨房。
  B:I agree. The colors must be soft and pleasant. You should feel comfortable when you cook our dinners.
  B:我同意。颜色必须柔和愉悦,做饭时你要觉得舒服才好。
  A:Me? Cook our dinners? Hah! You will be cooking, dear. You will cook.
  A:我?做饭?哈,亲爱的,你才要煮,你煮啦。
  B:No, I don't think so. I'll be too busy having tea in our new tea room.
  B:不,我不认为。我会在新的茶室忙着品茶。
  A:Well, I suppose we'll have to hire a cook then. So you won't be able to afford any clothes next year.
  A:好吧,我想我们请个厨子好了。那你明年就买不起任何衣服了。
  B:And you'll have to sell your motorcycle7. And your cameras. Right?
  B:而且你必须卖掉你的摩托车,还有你的摄影机,是不是?
  A:Maybe I'll cook once or twice a week. How is that?
  A:也许我一周煮饭一两次,怎么样?
  B:Four times might be enough. Not once or twice.
  B:四次才够,不只是一两次。
