美语会话实录第168期(MP3+文本):Lattes are so passe these days

英文原文:

James:Ann, stop bugging Jess and help me order something new. Lattes are so passe these days.
Ann: Why don't you try an Americano? Espresso with water.
James:Sounds a little weak.
Ann: Go with a hammerhead then-espresso mixed with drip coffee.
James:Sounds better, but I hope it doesn't inspire me to take a hammer to the client's head.
Ann: Don't worry, James. We'll get this case worked out in no time.

参考译文:

詹姆士：小安，别再跟洁丝抬杠了，帮我点一些新口味。最近已经不流行喝那堤了。
小　安：你何不试试美式咖啡？浓缩咖啡加水。
詹姆士：听来味道有点淡。
小　安：那就来杯榔头咖啡吧——浓缩咖啡加一般滴滤式咖啡。
詹姆士：听来好多了，但希望这不会让我想拿榔头敲客户的脑袋。
小　安：别担心，詹姆士。我们很快就会把这个案子解决掉。
