地道美语听力练习:推迟做决定

Thomas:You've hemmed and hawed for weeks.

It's time to make a decision.

Eugenia:I know, but I need to sleep on it.

This is a very big decision.

Thomas:You've dragged your feet for far too long.

Are you having second thoughts?

Eugenia:No, no second thoughts.

I just want to be absolutely sure I'm making the right choice.

I'm on the fence between two options.

We'll have to live with this decision for years.

Thomas:I thought you'd already made a tentative decision days ago.

Eugenia:No, no, no. In my mind, the jury is still out.

Thomas:You can't leave everyone hanging.

Eugenia:I know that, but how can I choose if I'm not 100% positive about either option.

Thomas:I understand that, but it's now down to the wire.

You've got to bite the bullet and decide.

Eugenia:I know. If only I had a few more days to think about it…

Thomas:Too late. They're here.

Eugenia:The painters are here?

Thomas:Yes. So will this be a blue or green house?

Eugenia:How about stripes?
