美语咖啡屋 Lesson 11: Valentine's Day
Y: 各位听众好，欢迎您到美语咖啡屋。我是杨晨。
J: Hi I'm Jody and welcome to American Cafe!
Y: 我想我们的听众可能觉得很奇怪，听这声音好象不是在咖啡屋。您猜的没错，我们现在站在一个巧克力店门口。为什么呢？因为今天是情人节。
J: That's right, Yang Chen, it's Valentine's Day. So we left the cafe. We came out on the street to find out what people are buying for Valentine's Day!
Y: 巧克力！ 我现在口水要流出来了。
J: And Yang Chen, we've come to the perfect place, Chocolate Chocolate. And you, Yang Chen, I know something about the name Chocolate Chocolate. The chocolate is so good they have to say it twice
Y: 没错。巧克力！ 巧克力！！！今天是情人节。你第一个想到的是人们都送什么礼物呢？就是巧克力。确实是，你看里面人那么多，买巧克力的人好象大多数都是男的。
J: Of course, women love chocolate. Men like to send their sweethearts all kind of good stuff, diamonds and flowers and chocolate.
Y: 你说起钻石，等会儿我们还要去一个珠宝店，专门卖钻石，首饰的珠宝店。
J: That's a great idea. But first let's talk to..., oh, let's talk to this guy! Are these chocolates for you?
Man: No, actually one's for my fiancée and one's for my mom.
Yang Chen: That's so sweet!
Jody: So, we were just saying that Valentine's Day is not only to show your love for a special someone but also family and friends. Is that true?
Man: Yes it is. Women like chocolate anytime, next to diamonds.
Jody: You know, there's a diamond store right up the road.
Man: All right, I passed that one on the way. So...
J: What else for Valentine's Day are popular traditions when you guys plan to do?
Man: Probably dinner, roses, maybe some perfume.
J: Oh, look, there's another guy. I bet he's buying chocolate for his girlfriend.
Y: 你错了。你看这个人走进了[维多利亚的秘密]，是一个专门卖内衣的商店。
J: We are in front of Victoria's Secret store and the window is full of sexy red underwear just for Valentine's Day!
Y: 我可能不太会去买这种红色的内衣。That's not for me.
