Conversation Two
W: Good morning. [12] I’m looking for a present for my nephew, Lawrence.
M: Hi. Do you have anything in mind?
W: I’m not sure. No. Do you know what boys aged around ten typically like?
M: [13] For that age group, our biggest seller this year has been this action figure. It’s called Bobo Man, and it’s incredibly popular.
W: Does it do anything?
M: Not by itself. It has no batteries, if that’s what you mean. There’s a _Bobo Man_ cartoon popular amongst young children, you see. And this toy is the lead character from the show.
W: Oh, I understand now. I’ve never heard of it, but I do know little Lawrence loves cartoons. Do you have any other popular toys? Perhaps something educational.
M: Yes, of course. Right over here, we have dozens of puzzles for children of all ages. They are fun, great for exercising the mind and can be played either alone or in groups.
W: I like this sort of idea. [14] Lawrence has a sister who is slightly older, so maybe a game that they can play together would be good.
M: What do you think of Battleships, then? [15] It’s a total classic. It has been around since the 1930s.
W: Oh, yeah. [15] We had one of those when growing up.
M: Of course you did. Everyone did. And kids enjoy it just as much today as you and I did when we were young. Some games just never get old.
W: I suppose you are right. I have fond memories playing Battleships when it was raining outside and we had to stay indoors. That’s decided then. How much?
M: 19 pounds and 90 pence, please.
W: There you are. Have a nice day.
M: Thank you. You too.
长对话二
女:早上好。我想给我侄子劳伦斯找份礼物。
男:嗨。你有什么想法吗?
女:我不确定,没有。你知道十岁左右的男孩通常喜欢什么吗?
男:这个年龄段的男孩喜欢什么?我们今年最畅销的是一个活动玩偶。它叫波波人,非常受欢迎。
女:它有什么功能吗?
男:它本身没有功能。它没有电池。你看,有一部波波人动画片很受小孩子欢迎。这个玩具就是动画片里的主角。
女:哦,我明白了。我以前没听说过,但我知道小劳伦斯喜欢动画片。你还有其他受欢迎的玩具吗?比如一些益智玩具?
男:当然有。我们这里有几十种适合所有年龄段儿童的拼图。它们很有趣,很能锻炼大脑,可以单独玩,也可以一起玩。
女:我喜欢这种主意。劳伦斯有个姐姐,年纪稍大一些,所以或许可以找个他们一起玩的游戏。
男:那你觉得《超级战舰》怎么样?它绝对是经典之作,从20世纪30年代就流传了。
女:哦,是的。我们小时候也玩过。
男:你当然玩过。每个人都玩过。现在的孩子也和你我小时候一样喜欢玩。有些游戏永远不会过时。
女:我想你是对的。我有很多美好的回忆,小时候外面下着雨,我们不得不待在家里,玩《超级战舰》。那就这么定了。多少钱?
男:19英镑90便士。
女:给你。祝你今天愉快。
男:谢谢。你也是。
