【英语趣味课堂】吃寿司-Eating Sushi（在线收听） |
Todd: Hey, Jessica, what are you going to have for dinner tonight?
Jessica: Tonight is sushi night.
Todd: Oh, you're going to sushi.
Jessica: Well, actually no. My girlfriend and I, we buy sushi every Tuesdays and Fridays, and those are sushi night.
Todd: Oh, Wow
Jessica: Yeah, Yeah. It's because, well we buy it in the supermarket and bring it home cause it's cheaper than eating in a restaurant.
Todd: Yeah, it is a lot cheaper.
Yeah
Todd: OK, what sushi do you eat?
Jessica: Well, we always buy the box, which has a little bit of everything. And I'm never quite sure what any of it is. I know there's a piece of salmon in there. Some octopus, or squid. Um, and then from that point on I'm not quite sure what anything else is, but it's all delicious, so I eat it all, and then we also have rolls, so we buy just different rolls. Actually, last week we tried natto. Have you ever tried that before?
Todd: Yeah, it's gross.
Jessica: It's the most vile, disgusting food you can ever possibly eat, so I definitely don't recommend that but.
Todd: Well, have you had uni?
Jessica: I have not.
Todd: Uni is gross. Uni is sea urchin and it looks like an orange tongue.
Jessica: Oh, I've seen that. Is that what that is?
Todd: Yeah, stay away from that.
Jessica: I will. I definitely will.
