对话1：购物惊喜

Tom: Hey, Mike! I have a confession to make.

Mike: What is it, Tom?

Tom: I accidentally bought a horse.

Mike: What?! How did that happen?

Tom: Well, I was trying to place an order for a phone case online, but I ended up with a fullgrown horse. Imagine the look on the delivery guy's face!

Mike: Haha! I guess you'll have to saddle up and take it for a ride then!

Tom: I think I'll stick to online shopping for phone cases from now on.

汤姆：嘿，迈克！我有件事要坦白。

迈克：什么事，汤姆？

汤姆：我无意中买了一匹马。

迈克：什么？！怎么会这样？

汤姆：嗯，我本来想在网上订一个手机壳，结果却买成了一匹成年马。想象一下快递员当时的表情！

迈克：哈哈！我想你现在该骑上它出去溜达一下了！

汤姆：我想我以后还是老老实实在网上买手机壳吧。

Lisa: I tried making a cake yesterday, and it was a disaster.

Emily: What went wrong?

Lisa: I misread the recipe and ended up using salt instead of sugar.

Emily: Yikes! How did it taste?

Lisa: Let's just say the local birds had a feast in our backyard after I threw it out.

Emily: Well, at least you've provided some entertainment for the birds!

Lisa: I'm sticking to storebought desserts from now on.

莉莎：昨天我试着做蛋糕，结果悲剧了。

艾米丽：出了什么问题？

莉莎：我看错了食谱，结果用了盐代替糖。

艾米丽：天啊！味道怎么样？

莉莎：咱们家后院扔掉了以后，当地的鸟儿大饱口福了。

艾米丽：嗯，至少你给鸟儿们提供了些许娱乐！

莉莎：我决定以后还是买现成的甜点吧。

Jack: I got lost in the city yesterday.

Sarah: How did you manage that?

Jack: I followed the directions from a GPS app, and it took me to a dead end in an alley.

Sarah: Oh no! What did you do?

Jack: I had to ask a group of pigeons for directions, and they were surprisingly helpful.

Sarah: That's a new one! From now on, maybe stick to good oldfashioned maps.

杰克：昨天我在城里迷路了。

莎拉：怎么会这样？

杰克：我按着GPS软件的指示走，结果走到了一个小巷的死胡同里。

莎拉：噢，不会吧！你怎么办的？

杰克：我不得不向一群鸽子问路，结果它们居然帮了我大忙。

莎拉：这还是头一回！以后还是用老式地图吧。
