M: 8 So what time do you think we should have the party on Saturday?
W: 8 How about inviting people to come at 6 pm? Then we’ll have the afternoon to prepare food and drink, and stuff like that.
M:Yes. I was thinking that around six would be good too. What food should we provide?
W:Well, I had thought about baking a cake and some biscuits, and now I think we should prepare some sandwiches and snacks, and some other kinds of food, so that people can just help themselves, rather than getting everyone to sit down at the table to eat a meal. I think that’s a bit too formal. 9 It’s better to let people walk around and talk to each other, or sit where they like.
M:Yes, that sounds good. I’ll go to the supermarket to get some drinks. I think I might try that big, new supermarket on the other side of town, and see what they have. I’ve not been there before. I think we should get some beer and wine, and some fruit juice and other soft drinks. What do you think?
W:Sounds great! I think those drinks will be enough. 10 And I heard that the new supermarket offers some big discounts to attract customers, so going there should be a great idea. What should we do about music?
M: 11 Maybe we should ask Paul to bring his computer and speakers so that we can play some music. He has a great collection of different stuff.
W:Yes, alright.
男: 8 你认为我们周六应该什么时候开派对?
女: 8 不如邀请大家下午6点来,这样我们可以在下午准备食物、饮料之类的东西?
男:好。我在想六点左右也不错。我们应该提供什么食物?
女:我本来想烤一个蛋糕和一些饼干,现在我想我们应该准备一些三明治、点心和其他种类的食物,这样人们就可以自便了,而不是让大家坐在桌子旁吃饭。 9 我觉得这有点太正式了。最好让人们四处走动,互相交谈,或者坐在他们喜欢的地方。
男:是的,听起来不错。我要去超市买些饮料。我想我可以去镇上另一边新开的大超市,看看他们有什么。我以前没去过那家超市。我想我们应该买些啤酒、葡萄酒、果汁和其他软饮料。你怎么看?
女:听起来不错。我想这些饮料就够了。 10 我听说新超市提供大折扣来吸引顾客,所以去那里应该是个好主意。音乐应该怎么办?
男: 11 也许我们还应该让保罗带上他的电脑和扬声器,这样我们可以放些音乐。他有很棒的音乐合集。
女:对。好的。
