A: It comes with either soup or salad and a complimentary glass of wine, Sir.
B: I’ll go with the spaghetti and meatballs, salad and the wine.
A: Excellent choice, your order will be ready soon.
B: How soon is soon?

Okay.Next part is 重点句型,单词讲解^_^
1. May I take your order? 请问准备好点餐了吗?
take one's order 这句话我们经常能在西方餐厅听到。当我们看完菜单后,服务员都会问一句May I take your order?请问您可以点菜了吗?
e.g. Then the child spoke into the instrument,Welcome to McDonald's。May I take your order?接着,小知女孩对着听诊器说道:欢迎道光临麦当劳。您要点什么?
如果是在部队或者其它情况下,take one's order也可以是执行某人的命令,按照顺序来的意思。
e.g.Please line up and take your order. 请排队,按顺序来。
2. work on 表示致力于,努力做一件事情
当服务员问顾客是否可以点餐了,顾客回答说,I’m still working on it.说明自己还没点完,还在研究中。相当于 I need more time/I haven't finished it yet.
e.g. A:did you finish reading the magazine?你读完那本杂志了吗?
B: I am still working on it.还没有,再给我点时间。
3. come with 与......一起供给, 随......一起发生
Does it come with coke and fries? 有配可乐和薯条吗?当你想问某一个东西有配送什么食物或赠品,你就可以用这个句型 Does it come with...?
e.g. Okay, I'll take thisone.Does it come withbatteries and a case?
好,我就买这个。有附赠电池跟皮套吗?
4.complimentary 赠送的, 免费的
complimentary glass of wine 赠送一杯酒 Complimentary跟Free的意思差不多,也是表示免费提供的意思——特别是在酒店,商品的标语上会写。
e.g. All guests will receive a complimentary bottle of champagne.
所有宾客都会得到一瓶免费的香槟。
5. go with 在这里有选择的意思
I’ll go with the spaghetti and meatballs, salad and the wine. 那我要意大利面,牛肉丸,沙拉,酒。
e.g. Which size would you like? 你想要哪一个尺寸?
I'll go with the big one.我选择那个大的。
当然啦,它还有其它的意思。
例如,与某人一同去,e.g.I' ll go with you.我跟你一起去。
搭配,匹配。e.g. The furniture goes very well with the room.家俱和房间很和谐
意见一致,赞同某人。I can't go with you in that.在那方面,我同你的意见不一致。等。
6.go grab 去吃,去喝,去拿....
I’ll just go grab a burger across the street.我去街对面吃个汉堡得了。当你想要邀请某人一起去吃东西时,你就可以用到, go grab sth.
e,g, Let's go grab a drink. 我们去小酌一杯怎么样。
终于结束了,今天内容还不算多,可能是第一次与大家分享学习资料,在排版和打字方面还不熟练,所以花了2个多小时才弄完,希望大家能够谅解,也希望这一期的内容对大家有所帮助。另外,如果大家要Englishpod的文本和音频,可以直接看我上一篇推文自取哦^_^
Thanks,everybody.
