华尔街英语中级Lesson 12

45. It’s so darned hot here!
46. What do you expect, Doris; we’re in Trinidad, not Buffalo! Ah, look, here comes a waiter.
47. I’ll order you a nice cold drink. What about pineapple juice with ice?
48. Excuse me, sir!
49. Ah, waiter! I didn’t call you, but as you’re here, my wife will have pineapple juice. I think I’ll have an ice cream.
50. I’m not a waiter actually. I’d just like to ask you a few questions, if you don’t mind.
51. Oscar, why is he dressed like a waiter, if he isn’t a waiter?
52. Then why are you wearing a white coat and a black tie?
53. I’d just like to ask you a few questions, if you don’t mind.
54. I don’t know, dear! Yes, sir, what can we do for you?
55. I’m trying to find a couple of old friends, and I was wondering if you could help me.
56. Have you ever seen this gentleman? His name is Hugo Peters, and –.
57. Hey, wait a moment!
58. Yes?
59. Was he in – you know – that picture with Robert Redford?
60. What picture was that?
61. Don’t you remember – we went to see it when we were staying with your cousin in Philadelphia?
62. We never went to see a picture then.
63. Yes, we did!
64. Excuse me!
65.  Anyway, my cousin doesn’t live in Philadelphia. You’re thinking of my sister-in-law.
66. Don’t be ridiculous, Oscar! I know where-
67. Excuse me! Please!
68. Yes? What is it?
69. Can I have my photo back? Thank you!
70. This is the other man. His name is Roger Temple. Have you seen this man, or do you have any information regarding him?
71. I know this man’s face. I’ve seen him.
72. What? When? Where?
73. Well, he sat next to us on the plane, didn’t he, Oscar?
74. He sure did. I didn’t like the look of him at all.
75. That’s right. When it got dark he switched on the light so he could read, and that meant I couldn’t get to sleep.
76. So I asked him very politely:” Excuse me sir, could you possibly switch your light off, please?”
77. And, of course, he didn’t switch it off.
78. It’s no good being polite to guys like that, Oscar. You’ve got to stand up to them.
79. Never mind about that! Where is he now?
80. Well, he was getting into a taxi in front of our hotel when we came in just now.
81. When was that?
82. About ten minutes ago.
83. Thank you! Goodbye!
84. I hope you find your friends!
85. I don’t think they’re his friends at all. If you ask me, he’s a cop.
86. What makes you think that?
87. It’s absolutely obvious. I mean, you’ve only got to look at him…
