情景对话
A: Honey, you have a package.
B: The package has come? It's so fast. I can't wait to try my new clothes.
A: Wait a second. How could you buy such expensive clothes without talking with me beforehand? Even on the Internet? I can't understand.
B: Come on! Mom, last month, I asked you to go shopping,you said you were busy. Last week, I called you to buy new clothes for me, you said you were tired. So I went shopping on the Internet.
A: But you should discuss with me first anyway.
B: If I discussed with you first, you would stop me.
A: Of course, the Internet isn't reliable.
B: You're always so stubborn. I don't want to argue with you. It only makes matters worse.
A: Watch your tone. OK, let's calm down. I was wrong to find excuses to refuse you. But you must admit you've done wrong this time, too.
B: I'm sorry, Mom. I know I have spent too much money this time. I'll never waste money again. I regret what I've done. And I'll discuss with you next time. But shopping on Internet is popular nowadays. I'll be careful when I shop on the Internet. Please, Mom, let me do this!
A: Fine. Now, try your new shirt.
参考译文
A:亲爱的,你有一个包裹。
B:包裹到了?这么快!我等不及要试穿我的新衣服了。
A:等一下。你怎么能在没有提前告诉我的情况下就买这么贵的衣服呢?而且还是在网上!我无法理解。
B:拜托。妈,上个月我叫你去购物,你说你很忙;上个礼拜我打电话让你给我买新衣服,你说你很累。所以我才去网上购物的.
A:但是不管怎么样你也应该先跟我商量商量啊。
B:如果我先跟你商量,你会阻止我的。
A:当然啦,网络哪靠得住。
B:你总是那么顽固。我不想跟你吵架。那只会让事情更糟。
A:你怎么说话呐?好吧,我们先冷静下来。找借口拒绝你是我不对。但是你必须承认这次你做得也不对。
B:对不起,妈妈。我知道我这次花了太多的钱。我不会再乱花钱了。我很后悔,下次我会跟你商量的。但是网上购物现在很流行的,我在网上购物的时候会小心的。妈妈,求你让我网上买东西吧。
A:好吧。那现在来试试你的新衣服吧。
