美语会话实录第164期(MP3+文本):Choice and fresh

英文原文:

Sitting down with their drinks
James: My latte looks like that shoe polish we did an ad for last month.
Jess: And this espresso looks like...oil!
James:[Taking a sip] It still tastes fine, though.
Jess: These days, I can't think of anything but motor oil. Even coffee makes me think of it.
James: Wait a second! There's the idea for this case! “Your motor oil should be as choice and fresh as your morning coffee.”

詹姆士：（啜饮一口）不过尝起来还不错。
