CAROLINE: What should I get Uncle Teddy? DRAKE: You could get him a tie. CAROLINE: Are you kidding? That’s the stupidest gift one can buy. I don’t want to get a tie. DRAKE: Why not? CAROLINE: Everybody gets men ties for Christmas. It’s too boring. Everybody buys either ties or sweaters. I want a more unique gift. DRAKE: Well, you can buy him a pet iguana then. CAROLINE: That’s a cool idea. At least it would be a surprise. But I’m afraid he wouldn’t take care of it. DRAKE: He would think you were crazy, Caroline. CAROLINE: Yes. An iguana is too strange for a gift, and a tie is too normal. So I have to find something halfway between. DRAKE: How much do you want to spend? CAROLINE: Well, he was very good to me. He helped me edit my essay for the scholarship contest. So I want to spend at least 75 dollars. DRAKE: Alright, I have an idea. You know he carries that conservative-looking briefcase every day. CAROLINE: Yes. DRAKE: Well, he isn’t a lawyer, so I don’t think he needs to have a briefcase like that. CAROLINE: What should he have then? DRAKE: I think he would appreciate having a very fine leather bag. But more like a bookbag or shoulder bag. You know, not so hard and square like a briefcase. CAROLINE: I think that’s a great idea. Men look great with that kind of bag. Where can we buy one? DRAKE: I don’t think this mall has a leather goods store. So we have to go to State Street. CAROLINE: Alright. We can go later then. DRAKE: We can buy something for Mom and Dad here, and then go buy Uncle Teddy’s gift on State Street. CAROLINE: Good plan. What should we get for Mom though? DRAKE: She said she wants one of those automatic foot massagers. I think they sell them at Sears. CAROLINE: Alright. We can go check at Sears and see if they have them. And what about Dad? DRAKE: How about the iguana? CAROLINE: I think it would be a great joke. But I know we’d have to take the iguana back. And the pet store might not let us.实践证明经常访问无忧英语教育网 www.51education.net ,能迅速提高你的英语学习能力!积沙成塔,不断提高! 本站所提供的所有信息仅供学校课堂教学及英语学习者学习研究之用,其著作权归原作者及媒体所有。 |
