Let’s Do Something Different 

让我们换换口味 

 

M: What shall we do this weekend? 

W: Did you have something special in mind? 

M: No, not really. I just thought it might be fun to do something new. 

W: Do something for a change, you mean? 

M: Yes, something different. I need a change. 

W: I used to go shopping and have my hair done during the weekend. 

And you usually watched the football games on TV. 

M: Yes, you often have tea with your friends and I sometimes play cards 

with my friends. We seldom do anything together. It’s quite unlike when we were first married. 

W: Now, I’ve got an idea. Autumn is the best season in Beijing. Why don’t we go for a picnic this weekend? You invite your friends and I invite mine. We’ll go together. 

M: Good idea. I would see about the car and you’ll prepare the food. But 

are you sure you really want all our friends to come along?
