1-- it’s such a nice day outside. Let’s take a walk into town and do some window-shopping.
2-- you know I hate shopping more than anything else in this world.
1-- I know. But we could get some exercise in, and we could get some errands run, too. Window-shopping won’t cost you anything.
2-- what kind of errands do we need to run?
1-- well, we could go to the newsagent’s to pick up the Sunday paper, go to the butcher’s to pick up a chicken for a roast dinner, and to the chemist’s to pick up your prescription from the doctor.
2-- I’ll only go if we can stop at the office-license to pick up something to drink for tonight.
1-- fine, we’ll do that on the way home, so we don’t have to carry it the whole time.
2-- sounds good. You have to promise not go into any of the stores in the mall though. I know how you like to try things on in the fitting rooms, especially if the stores have special offers.
1-- I promise. We’re only going for a walk to get some exercise and to get some things done that we haven’t had time for.
2-- ok, let’s go then!
1-- do you have any money?
2-- for what?
1-- for our errands, and maybe a little extra for something from a vendor on the street.
2-- you said you were only going to window shop!
1-- I agreed to not go into the mall, but I can still look at things in the market!
2-- I should have known…

譯文:
1--今天外面天氣不錯。咱們走到鎮(zhèn)上去逛逛街吧?
2--你知道的,我最討厭逛街了。
1--我知道??墒俏覀冞€能鍛煉身體呢,而且還有點(diǎn)任務(wù)。逛逛街又不會花費(fèi)你什么。
2--咱們有什么事情要辦?
1--嗯,咱們得去報攤買一份周日的報紙,去肉鋪買點(diǎn)晚餐燒烤用的雞肉,還得去藥房取醫(yī)生給你開的處方。
2--如果能去酒店買幾瓶今晚喝的東西,我才會去。
1--好吧,咱們回來的路上去買,這樣我們就不用一路上都提著它們了。
2--聽起來不錯。但是你得答應(yīng)我不進(jìn)購物中心的任何一間店。我可知道你有多喜歡到試衣間試衣服,特別是商店有打折的時候。
1--我答應(yīng)你。我們就是出門走走當(dāng)鍛煉身體,然后再把那幾間平常沒時間辦的事情辦好。
2--好吧,現(xiàn)在出發(fā)。
1--你身上有錢嗎?
2--干什么用的?
1--辦那幾件事用啊。而且還可能額外需要一點(diǎn)兒在街上自動售貨機(jī)買東西用。
2--你說過你只逛不買的!
1--我答應(yīng)不進(jìn)購物中心,可是我還要去市場逛逛。
2--我早該想到的…
