实战口语情景对话 第1142期:Party Clean Up 派对后的清理工作

Meg: Hey, Todd. Are you busy today?
梅格：嗨，托德。你今天忙吗？

Todd: Yeah. I am so busy. Last night, I had a party and now my house is so dirty, and I need to clean my house.
托德：忙。我非常忙。昨晚我办了个派对，现在我家里非常脏乱，我要打扫一下。

Meg: Wow. Where will you start cleaning?
梅格：哇哦。你要从哪里开始打扫？

Todd: Well, everywhere in the house is dirty, so the kitchen is very dirty. The living room is dirty. But I think, first, I'll do the kitchen. I have to throw away all the old food. We have lots of trash from the party. And then I have to wipe the counters. We have food all over the counters. And then of course, I have to wash the dishes and put everything away.
托德：我家里所有地方都很脏，厨房很脏，客厅也很脏。我想我要先从厨房开始打扫。我必须把所有剩下的食物都扔掉。派对制造了很多垃圾。然后我要擦洗柜台。上面全是食物。当然之后我要洗碗碟，把东西都收拾好。

Meg: Wow. It sounds like it was quite a party.
梅格：哇哦。听起来这个派对很棒。

Todd: Yeah, it was. Well, we ordered pizza but also everybody brought food. And so, we had lots of food and everybody left their dishes and pots at my house after they went home. So I have everyone's dishes, and pots and plastic containers. So I feel I should clean everything and then give it back to everybody.
托德：对，没错。我们叫了批萨，而且所有人都带了食物过来。我们有很多吃的，所有人回家时，都把盘子和罐子留在了我家。所以我家里有所有人的盘子、罐子还有塑料包装盒。我感觉我要把所有东西清洗一下，然后还给他们。

Meg: Hmm, that sounds like a good idea. Did anyone drop any food on the floor?
梅格：嗯，这听起来是个好主意。有人把食物掉在地板上吗？

Todd: Yeah. Actually, they dropped food everywhere. So I have to vacuum the carpet in the living room and I need to mop the kitchen floor. So I think I need about three hours just to clean the entire house.
托德：有。实际上，他们把食物掉的到处都是。所以我要用吸尘器清洁客厅的地毯，我还要把厨房的地拖一下。我想我需要三个小时才能打扫完整个房子。

Meg: Oh, three hours? Can I help you clean?
梅格：哦，三个小时？我帮你打扫吧？

Todd: Well, actually yeah, if you can, I really need help. But if you can just collect the trash. I have some trash bags and go around and collect all the plastic cups. There are many plastic cups, and collect pizza boxes and maybe get the old food and throw away the old food, that would be great.
托德：实际上，如果你愿意的话，我的确需要帮忙。你帮忙收集垃圾就好。我有垃圾袋，你要把所有塑料杯收集起来。塑料杯太多了，如果你可以收集塑料杯、批萨包装盒，然后把所有剩下的食物扔掉，那就太好了。

Meg: Sure. I can collect the cups and throw away the old food. Is there anything else you need me to do?
梅格：可以。我可以收集塑料杯，把剩下的食物扔掉。还有其他需要我帮忙的吗？

Todd: Well yeah, actually. If you have time, can you go to the store and buy some cleaning supplies? I need dish soap to wash the dishes, and I need window cleaner to clean the windows.
托德：实际上，有。如果你有时间，你能去商店买些清洁用品吗？我需要洗洁精来洗碗碟，我还需要清洁窗户的擦窗器。

Meg: But window cleaner? Why the windows?
梅格：擦窗器？为什么要清洁窗户？

Todd: Well, it was a very crazy party, and you don't want to know.
托德：因为那是一个非常疯狂的派对，你不会想知道的。

Meg: Uh-oh.
梅格：啊哦。
