【听英文对话做选择】烧烤派对

Daniel: Hey, Ashley. How many people are coming to the barbecue¹ tomorrow?

Ashley: Well, um, there's your family; that's four people. [ Okay. ] There are three from my work [ Okay. ], and then Mike and Megan from across the street. And you and me, of course.

 

Daniel: Okay. So, what is everyone bringing?

 

Ashley: Um, let's see. Here's my list. Um . . . Your brothers are bringing hamburgers, cheese, and buns².

 

Daniel: Oh! I'm glad they are in charge³ of that. [ Yeah, me too. ] You know, my brother, Jim . . . He eats like a horse. [ Uh-huh. ] At the last barbecue, he put away at least, what, five hotdogs and five cheeseburgers . . .

 

Ashley: No, I think it was six. Six cheeseburgers. It might have been more hotdogs. I don't know.

 

Daniel: He was still hungry!

 

Ashley: I know. I don't know how he did it. He does that all the time, he's . . . and he's not even fat. You'd think (he would be fat). Anyway. Oh, yeah, anyway. So, my friends from work said that they could buy chips and salsa [ Okay. ], and they're going to bring a salad [ Alright. ]. And one of them is vegetarian⁴, and so she's going to bring her own veggie burger, so you don't have to worry about her.

 

Daniel: Okay. That's . . . That'll work out.

 

Ashley: And Mike and Megan. You're going to love this. They're going to bring some of the corn⁵ from their garden.

 

Daniel: Oh, their corn is always so, so good.

 

Ashley: Yeah, I know. It's wonderful.

 

Daniel: So, um, yeah. What about drink?

 

Ashley: Well, we're going to have soda⁶ and juice, and ice water as well.

 

Daniel: Okay. And what about dessert?
