Jingjing: Mark, you were right on the money when you said we should get going early this morning.
京晶：马克，你说的我们应该今天一大早就出发，真是太对了。
Mark: I never get tired of hearing you say I'm right, Jingjing. But seriously, yeah: we have a few hours to enjoy the surf and sand, before we have to start thinking about lunch.
马克：京晶，听你夸我对我真是百听不厌。但说真的，没错，在我们考虑吃什么午餐之前我们还能享受几个小时的海浪和沙滩。
Jingjing: Oh, don't mention food. You know I didn't bring much in my bag for the trip.
京晶：哦，别提吃的了。你知道这次来玩我包里没带多少东西。
Mark: No sweat1, Jingjing. Say, if you don't mind keeping an eye on our stuff2 here, I'll run up to the shop and get us some snacks.
马克：没事的，京晶。你要是不介意在这看着我们的东西，我可以跑去商店买点零食过来。
Jingjing: You don't have to do that, Mark. I think I can hold off until noon.
京晶：不用了，马克。我想我能挨到中午的。
Mark: Say, what time is it now anyway?
马克：对了，现在几点了？
Jingjing: Um, I put my phone away so it wouldn't get sand on it. Why don't you look at your watch?
京晶：呃，我把手机收起来了怕沾到沙子。要不看下你的手表？
Mark: I would if I were wearing it. But I put that away.
马克：要是我戴着我肯定会看的。但是我也收起来了。
Jingjing: Let me guess, so it wouldn't get sand on it.
京晶：我猜，这样手表也不会进沙子了。
Mark: Ding! And my phone. I'm going to try to go a whole day without looking at my phone.
马克：对极了。还有我的手机，我想尝试一次一整天不看手机。
Jingjing: Oh yeah? Knowing you, you'll last until we put in our lunch order and are waiting for our food. But it was nice to see you reading an actual book on the train.
京晶：哦，是吗？以我对你的了解，你也就能坚持到我们点好午餐然后等着上菜。不过很开心看到你在火车上读的是一本纸质书。
Mark: Yeah, now I can finish it here and get a suntan at the same time.
马克：是的，现在我可以在这里把它看完，同时享受日光美黑。
Jingjing: That reminds me, I'd better put on some sun cream before I start to bake. You want some?
京晶：你提醒我了，我最好晒黑前抹点防晒。你来点吗？
Mark: Nah, I'm down with a little sun. Let me know if I start to turn red.
马克：不了，我乐意晒一点太阳。如果发现我开始晒红了你就告诉我。
Jingjing: Put some on your ears and nose. Those are trouble spots for everyone.
京晶：给你的耳朵和鼻子上抹点防晒。对每个人来说这些部位都容易被晒伤。
Mark: You're right. I could do without the red-neck jokes when I return to work. Toss3 it over to me when you're done with it.….
马克：你说得对。我回去上班的时就不会被人取笑是“红脖子” 。你涂完防晒霜以后就把它扔给我吧。
Jingjing: Here you go, Mark.
京晶：马克，给。
Mark: Ow! What'd you do that for?
马克：哎呦！你这是干什么？
Jingjing: You told me to give you the sunscreen.
