E: Eileen T: Thomas
Eileen is visiting the United States, and she was invited to join Thanksgiving dinner with her friend Thomas and his family.
E: Wow! There is so much food on the table.
T: Of course, it’s Thanksgiving. Eating until you’re stuffed is what it’s all about.
E: That turkey is huge, and the stuffing smells really good!
T: The stuffing is my favorite part. Have you ever had homemade cranberry sauce?
E: No, but I’ve always wanted to try some.
T: My mom makes the best cranberry sauce. Be sure to try the cornbread and sweet potato casserole, too.
E: I’ll have two of each. What’s this dish covered with cheese?
T: That’s my sister’s green bean casserole. It’s so good but really filling.
艾琳正到访美国,她受邀和她朋友汤玛斯及其家人共进感恩节晚餐。
艾 琳: 哇!桌上有好多食物喔。
汤玛斯: 当然,今天是感恩节啊。感恩节就是要吃到撑。
艾 琳: 那只火鸡好大,而且里面的填料闻起来真香!
汤玛斯: 填料是我最爱的部分。妳有吃过手工制的蔓越莓酱吗?
艾 琳: 没有,但我一直很想试试看。
汤玛斯: 我妈妈做的蔓越莓酱是最好吃的。妳也务必要尝尝玉米面包和番薯砂锅。
艾 琳: 我每样菜各拿两个。这道盖满起司的菜是什么?
汤玛斯: 那是我姊姊做的四季豆砂锅。它超好吃但也很有饱足感。
