Todd: So Adrienne, what did you think of the restaurant?
托德：埃德里安娜，你覺得那家餐廳怎么樣？
Adrienne: It was good. The food was tasty but not as good as Italian food at home.
埃德里安娜：很不錯。食物很好吃，但并不像國內(nèi)做的意大利菜那么好。
Todd: Yeah, I kind of think the same thing. It seemed like the noodles were a little hard, I guess you can say.
托德：對，我也是這么認(rèn)為的。面條有點硬，我想你也感覺到了。
Adrienne: Yeah. Plastic.
埃德里安娜：對。吃著費勁。
Todd: Yeah.
托德：沒錯。
Adrienne: Like, yeah, I agree.
埃德里安娜：就像，嗯，我也這么覺得。
Todd: Did you like the salad?
托德：你喜歡那個沙拉嗎？
Adrienne: Uh, salad was good, but it's hard to mess up salad.
埃德里安娜：哦，沙拉很好吃，不過沙拉很容易做。
Todd: Yeah, although that salad was pretty nice, right. It was chicken and sauce and peppers and stuff so...
托德：的確，不過剛剛那份沙拉真的很好吃。里面有雞肉、調(diào)味汁、青椒，還有其他的……
Adrienne: And asparagus.
埃德里安娜：還有蘆筍。
Todd: Like I can't make that salad. So that was pretty good.
托德：我不會做這種沙拉。所以沙拉真的很好吃。
Adrienne: Oh, that's true. I guess your right.
埃德里安娜：哦，的確是這樣。我想你是對的。
Todd: And what did you think about the pizza?
托德：那你覺得批薩怎么樣？
Adrienne: The pizza was delicious. I would like it to be a little bigger, because pizza at home is usually much bigger but, it was still very good.
埃德里安娜：批薩很好吃。我希望批薩能再大一點兒，因為國內(nèi)的批薩通常都要大一些，不過那份批薩已經(jīng)很不錯了。
Todd: Yeah, I forgot, how much was the bill. How much did we pay?
托德：對，我忘了，剛才那頓飯多少錢來著？我們花了多少錢？
Adrienne: About 3,000 yen I think.
埃德里安娜：我想大約3000日元。
Todd: 3,000 yen, so what do you think? Is that expensive or cheap or?
托德：3000日元，你怎么看？你覺得是貴了還是挺便宜的，或是其他的？
Adrienne: That seems pretty standard for Tokyo I think.
埃德里安娜：我想這就是東京的消費水平。重點講解：
1. as...as
像…一樣；
eg. I never went through a final exam that was as difficult as that one.
我從來沒有碰到過像那次那么難的期末考試。
eg. There was no obvious reason why this could not be as good a film as the original.
找不出明顯的理由來解釋為什么這部片子拍得不如原先的好。
eg. The streets were as noisy as ever.
街上和往常一樣喧鬧。
2. mess up
搞砸；弄糟；弄臟；弄亂；
eg. He had messed up one career.
他把一份工作弄砸了。
eg. If I messed up, I would probably be fired.
要是我搞砸了，很可能會被炒魷魚。
eg. I hope they haven't messed up your video tapes.
我希望他們沒把您的錄像帶弄亂。
