Will: Hello! I'm Will. It's Friday night-time to have fun! This is the Burning Swan-my favourite pub. I'm just waiting for Li. Oh there she is. My goodness! What is she wearing this time?
威爾：大家好！我是威爾。 現在是周五晚上，是享受快樂的時間！這里是我最喜歡的酒吧Burning Swan。我正在等李。她來了。我的天啊！她今天穿的是什么？
Li: Hi Will.
李：你好，威爾。
Will: Hi Li! Nice... blue overalls!
威爾：你好，李！你的藍色工裝褲……很漂亮！
Li: Thank you, these are new overalls, I bought them especially for tonight.
李：謝謝你，這是我新買的工裝褲，我特意為今晚的活動買的。
Will: Right. Okay. Li, I don't really follow fashion, but in London at least, denim overalls are really just for builders and painters and carpenters.
威爾：好吧。李，我其實不太追隨時尚，但是至少在倫敦，棉布工裝褲是建筑工、粉刷工人和木匠才會穿的。
Li: Yes! Right, where do we start, Will?
李：是啊！威爾，我們從哪里開始呢？
Will: Eh? What? What are you doing?
威爾：啊？什么？你要做什么？
Li: It's definitely very dull in here.
李：這里簡直太單調了。
Will: Why have you got a can of paint?
威爾：你為什么拿著一罐油漆？
Li: That wall especially. Shall we?
李：那面墻尤其單調。我們從那里開始好嗎？
Will: Li? What are you doing? She's finally gone mad. Li!
威爾：李？你到底要做什么？她完全瘋了。李！
Li: What's the matter?
李：怎么了？
Will: Look, you can't just walk into places and start repainting their walls! Don't! I love that brown colour!
威爾：你看，你不能走進一些地方，然后就開始為那里的墻重新刷漆！不能這么做！我喜歡那個棕色！
Li: Didn't you want it to be red?
李：你不是想讓它變成紅色的嗎？
Will: No! No-one wants it to be red!
威爾：不想！沒有人希望那面墻是紅色的！
Li: But you said that tonight we'd paint the town red-starting with this pub!
李：可是你說今晚我們要把城市漆成紅色，就從這間酒吧開始！
Will: It's an expression!
威爾：那是一個表達方式！
Li: Not again!
李：不是吧！
Will: It means that we'll go out and have a really exciting, crazy time. We'll paint the town red-it just means we'll have fun, not actually paint things. Let's listen to some examples.
威爾：這個短語的意思是我們要出去玩，度過非常刺激又瘋狂的時光。我們要把城鎮染紅，其實這句話的意思是我們要出去玩樂，而不是實際去刷漆。我們來聽一些例子。
It's my daughter's birthday today. She's gone out with her friends. I expect they'll paint the town red!
今天是我女兒的生日。她和朋友們出去玩了。我希望他們能玩得痛快！
Go on, come out with me tonight, let's paint the town red!
來吧，今晚和我出去玩吧，我們去狂歡吧！
We had a crazy night on Saturday, we painted the town red.
周六我們度過了一個瘋狂的夜晚，我們玩得特別盡興。
Li: So now, Will, tell me about all this crazy fun we're meant to have. What's your idea of painting the town red?
李：現在，威爾，跟我說說我們要怎么作樂吧。你要怎么狂歡？
Will: Well we drink, we dance, we laugh loudly, we meet people, we stay up all night.
威爾：我們喝酒、跳舞、大聲歡笑，見各種人，整晚不睡。
Li: Hmm. I'd still rather just paint. Let's just do this one wall.
李：嗯。我寧愿刷漆。我們就刷這一面墻。
Will: No, Li, stop, stop we'll get arrested.
威爾：不要，李，停下來，停下來，我們會被捕的。
Li: Isn't that colour so much better?
李：這個顏色更好看，不是嗎？
Will: No! No! Look, stop it! You'll ruin our night out!
威爾：不，不要！快停下來！你會毀了我們的夜晚的！
Li: It's beautiful!
李：多漂亮啊！
Will: Li! Stop!
威爾：李！停下來！
