Liang: I have a favor to ask.

梁：請你幫個忙!

Christian: Uh oh, what is it?

克里斯蒂安：哦，什么忙?

Liang: I’m doing a project for my class in culinary school and I need a volunteer to taste some of my creations.

梁：在烹飪學(xué)校，我為學(xué)生弄了一些菜式，我需要一個志愿者來嘗嘗我的這些菜。

Christian: Not on your life.

克里斯蒂安：絕對不行。

Liang: But, why?

梁：但，為什么?

Christian: You don’t remember the last time I was your guinea pig? I was sick for two days.

克里斯蒂安：你難道不記得上次當(dāng)你的小白鼠試驗了嗎?我病了兩天。

Liang: That was a stroke of bad luck. Come on, please.

梁：那次只是運氣不好，快點，來試試吧!

Christian: Count me out. No amount of pleading is going to change my mind. I bet I’m not the first person you’ve asked.

克里斯蒂安：把我排除在外。你再怎么請求，我都不會改變心意的。我敢肯定我絕對不是你第一個請求試吃的。

Liang: Well, no.

梁：好吧，不是的。

Christian: Who else has turned you down?

克里斯蒂安：還有誰拒絕你了?

Liang: Jacob said no.

梁：雅各布說：不。

Christian: I bet he said something stronger than no.

克里斯蒂安：他肯定說的比“不”更強(qiáng)烈。

Liang: He said that he would let me cook food for him over his dead body.

梁：他說除非他死了，否則不會讓我給他煮食物。

Christian: That’s what I thought. Did you ask Mele, too?

克里斯蒂安：正如我所想。那你也問梅里了?

Liang: Yes, and she said she’d rather not.

梁：是的，她說她不要嘗試。

Christian: Who’s next on your list of victims, I mean candidates?

克里斯蒂安：你名單上下一位“受害者”是誰啊?我的意思是候補(bǔ)人選。

Liang: You’re my last resort. If you won’t do it, then I’m sunk.

梁：你是我求的最后一個。如果你不愿意做，那我就完蛋了。

Christian: The answer is still no, but I know someone who won’t turn up his nose at your cooking.

克里斯蒂安：答案仍然是：不。但我知道誰不會對你的廚藝嗤之以鼻。

Liang: Who?

梁：誰呀?

Christian: Come here, Fido!

克里斯蒂安：菲多，過來!
