晚餐

　　A stewardess comes by offering dinner.

　　一名女空服员走过来送晚餐。

　　S:Would you put down your tray table, sir? Would you like chicken or beef?

　　空姐:先生，请将你的餐板放下来好吗？你要吃鸡肉还是牛肉呢？

　　E:Uh, I'll have the chicken, thanks.

　　艾凡:呃，我吃鸡肉好了，谢谢。

　　S:Here you are. And the young lady? Evan looks over to see Kathy sleeping.

　　空姐:鸡肉餐给你，那么这位年轻小姐呢？艾凡转过头去看到凯西正在睡觉。

　　E:Oh! She's fallen off. Can I still take a dinner for her to eat a little later?

　　艾凡:哦！她睡着了。我能不能先替她收下让她等一会儿再吃？

　　S:That would be all right. You'll have to lower her tray table, too, though.

　　空姐:可以。但是，你还是得把她的餐板放下来。

　　E:No problem. Uh, she'll have the chicken, too.

　　艾凡:没问题。呃，她也吃鸡肉餐。

　　S:Here you are. And would you like some wine with your meal?

　　空姐:喏，鸡肉餐。你用餐时要不要喝点酒呢？

　　E:Gee, thanks! Do you have white wine?

　　艾凡:要，谢谢！有白酒吗？

　　S:Sure do. Here you go.

　　空姐:有。喏，酒来了。

　　I think we'd better wait for her to wake up before we give her a drink. She might spill it when she wakes up.

　　我想我们最好等她醒来再给她饮料。要不然她醒来时也许会把杯子打翻。

　　E:OK. I'll get her up in a minute.

　　艾凡:好的。我等一下会叫醒她。
