外教讲解地道美语 第157期:买些特别的花

A: Hello sir, how may I help you?

B: I would like to buy some flowers, please. Something really nice.

A: I see, may I ask what the occasion is?

B: It’s not really an occasion, it’s more like I’m sorry.

A: Very well.This arrangement here is very popular among regretful husbands and boyfriends. It has a dozen long stem red roses with a couple of  sunflowers and a single orchid that stands out. It includes a small teddy bear to achieve the effect of immediate forgiveness.

B: I think I’m gonna need more than just a dozen red roses and a bear. What else do you recommend?

A: Mmm, well this is our “ I’m sorry I cheated on you” package. Two dozen red roses lined with tulips, carnations and lilies.  The fragrance and beauty of this flower arrangement is sure to make her forgive you.

B: I don’t think that’s gonna cut it. I need something bigger and better!

A: I’m sorry sir but, what exactly did you do?

B: Well, I may have accidentally insinuated that she is getting chubbier .
 
A: Get out of my store，you jerk!
