零食可是办公室里不可缺少的小点哦。看看brian 和 mary是怎么谈论吃零食的吧。

brian: would you like to have some ice-cream? i’ve got a variety of flavors for you to choose from. i’ve got strawberry, peach, chocolate, coffee, vanilla and praline.
布莱恩：要吃冰淇淋吗？我这有好多口味让你挑，有草莓的、桃的、巧克力的、咖啡的、香草的，还有果仁的。

mary: wow! what choices you have! i wish i could, but i just can’t. i’m on a diet to lose weight.
玛丽：哇，这么多种！要是我能吃就好了，可是不行啊，我在节食减肥呢。

brian: come on, it’s just a bite. it doesn’t really hurt to have just a bite.
布莱恩：哎呦，就咬一口嘛，不会影响你减肥的啦。

mary: i’d better not. please don’t tempt me. please!
玛丽：我还是不吃了。求你了，别勾引我。

brian: gee! you are really strong-willed.
布莱恩：哈，你意志还真坚定啊。

mary: you’re damn right. i’m not so easily coaxed into doing something that i think is wrong.
玛丽：没错。想勾引我做不好的事不是那么容易的。

brian: well, i’d better not tempt you. otherwise, if i give you a piece of cake, you might ask for a glass of milk.
布莱恩：那我还是不勾引你了。要不然你该得寸进尺了
