Dialogue 1

Jingjing: This is really different from the last pizza place.
京晶：這里和上次吃披薩的地方還真不太一樣。
Mark: Totally. This a café. Pizza isn't the main thing they serve.
馬克：完全不一樣。這是個咖啡小館，披薩不是這里的主營。
Jingjing: That's probably better. I wasn't really in the mood to load up on pizza again.
京晶：這樣可能更好。我不是特別想再搓一頓披薩了。
Mark: Well, the salads and pastas here are mighty good.
馬克：這里的沙拉和意大利面食超好的。
Jingjing: How about you order everything for us?
京晶：你來給我倆點菜怎么樣？
Mark: That's easy.
馬克：簡單。
later, the food comes
一會兒功夫，食物來了
Jingjing: Is this everything we ordered?
京晶：這是我們點的全部嗎？
Mark: This is just part of it. I ordered two pastas which haven't come yet.
馬克：這只是其中的一部分。我點了兩份意大利面食pastas, 都還沒上呢。
Jingjing: Is this the only salad?
京晶：只有這一份沙拉嗎？
Mark: Yes. Whenever we want more, we can get another one right away. They just bring each thing whenever it's ready.
馬克：是的。如果我們想要更多，可以馬上再要一份，他們只是食物弄好了就端上來。
Jingjing: How are we going to share the salad?
京晶：那我們怎么分著吃沙拉呢？
Mark: Just take some onto your plate. I'll go grab us a serving fork.
馬克：拿一些到你的盤子里。我去拿一個公用叉子。
More food comes.
更多的食物上來了
Jingjing: This is our pizza?
京晶：這是我們的披薩嗎？
Mark: Yep, that's it. Again, we can order more whenever we want.
馬克：對。就是。同樣，如果我們想吃更多可以繼續點。
Jingjing: I'm really not used to having so little food on the table at one time.
京晶：我真的不習慣一次桌上就擺著那么一點點食物。
Mark: I can imagine. If a boss takes a group of employees to a café, it's kind of weird.
馬克：我能想象。如果一個老板帶著一群員工來這種小館吃飯，那就真的奇怪了。

Dialogue 2

Jingjing and Mark have finished most of the food they ordered.
京晶和馬克吃完了大部分食物
Mark: Are you pretty full or should we order more?
馬克：你已經吃飽了嗎還是我們需要再點一些呢？
Jingjing: I'm not stuffed. But this is probably enough.
京晶：我還沒吃飽。但是桌上這些可能夠了。
Mark: Hmm. We could finish with another salad, or go with desserts.
馬克：嗯，我們可以再點一份沙拉就差不多了，或者來點甜點。
Jingjing: Another salad would be refreshing. You pick one, I'll be right back.
京晶：再來一份沙拉很愜意哦！你挑一款，
我馬上回來。
5 minutes later...
5分鐘以后
Jingjing: Oh, the table is empty!
京晶：噢，桌上都空了！
Mark: I ate the last piece of pizza and let them clear away our plates. They'll bring new ones with the salad.
馬克：我吃了最后一塊披薩，然后讓他們把我們的餐盤收走了。他們會帶一份新的沙拉過來。
Jingjing: O-kay.
京晶：好…吧
Mark: How about we order some tea? Would hot lemon tea be good for you?
馬克：我們點些茶來喝怎樣？熱檸檬茶你想喝嗎？
Jingjing: Sure.
京晶：好啊
Mark: I think I owe you an explanation. In a café, people don't like to deal with too much food at one time. That gives people a chance to sit and talk.
馬克：我想我還欠你一個解釋。在咖啡小館，人們不喜歡一次點太多食物，這樣能給了人們一個坐著聊天的機會。
Jingjing: What would you like to talk about?
京晶：你想說什么呢？
Mark: Well, this place is pretty quiet, even though lots of people are eating here. I guess I should say that westerners think this is a good way to eat.
馬克：這個地方很安靜，雖然有許多人在這里就餐。我猜我應該這樣說，西方人覺得這是一個很好的吃飯的方式。
Jingjing: It's very different from the Chinese way. Chinese people like to show their generosity by hosting a big meal.
京晶：這跟中國人的方式太不一樣了。中國人喜歡操辦一桌豐盛的宴席來展示慷慨大方。
Mark: Yeah, that's a nice thing. It took me a long time to get used to that.
馬克：是，那是很好的。我用了很長時間才習慣這種方式。
Jingjing: This food is pretty good. But I see so few plates and can't be sure there was enough food. But when I got up just now, I felt like I'd eaten a good amount.
京晶：這里的食物還是挺不錯的。但是我看見盤子這么少，不太確定食物夠不夠吃。但是當我剛才站起來的時候，我才發覺我已經吃了不少了。
Mark: Right. Maybe European-style cafés are worth a try once in a while.
馬克：對。也許這樣的歐式咖啡小館值得時不常來吃一次。
