Eztalk美语【244】我们也有一样的想法(在线收听

Bean: Not bad. He'd probably make a better model than president.
Jess: We were thinking the same thing. How about using those images for your new line of T-shirts?
Bean: What do you mean? Wouldn't that be kind of controversial?
Jess: Yes, but think of all the free advertising that will bring-with world politics as they are, the shirts will market themselves!
Bean: Yes, yes, that's perfect! I always knew sending out all those forwards would help. I'm going to send out even more!
Three: NO! STOP, PLEASE!

炳:不赖啊。或许他当模特儿会比当总统好。
洁丝:我们也有一样的想法。你的新款T恤用这些图样如何?
炳:你是什么意思?不会太具争议性吗?
洁丝:会呀,不过想想它所带来的免费广告——随着世界政治局势的状况,这些T恤自己就可以行销自己了!
炳:对、对,太赞了!我就知道寄这些转寄信会有帮助。我未来还要寄更多!
三人:不!别寄了,拜托
