Cathy: Hi, my name's Cathy, nice to meet you.

嗨，我叫凯茜，很高兴认识你。

John: Nice to meet you too Kathy, my name's John. I'm a university friend of the bride. What about you? Who do you know at this party?

我也很高兴见到你凯西，我叫约翰。我是新娘的大学朋友。你呢?在这个聚会上你认识谁?

Cathy: I am a colleague of Brenda. I was a little surprised to be invited to be honest. We've only been working together the last six months, but we quickly became good friends. We just wrapped up（结束） a project with a difficult client（客户） last week. I bet Brenda is glad it's done with, and she can focus on wedding preparations.

我是布伦达的同事。说实话，我有点吃惊。我们只在一起工作了六个月，但很快就成了好朋友。我们上周刚和一个难缠的客户完成了一个项目。我打赌布伦达很高兴这一切都结束了，她可以专注于婚礼的准备工作。

John: Oh, yes. So you are Cathy from the office. Actually I've heard a lot about you in that project, the client sounded like a real nightmare.

哦,是的。你就是“办公室的凯茜”。事实上，我在那个项目中听说过很多关于你的事情，那个客户听上去可真是一个噩梦。

Cathy: Oh, he was, I mean we deal with all kinds of people on a regular basis, it's part of the job, but he was especially particular. Enough about that, what line of work are you in?

哦，他是，我的意思是我们经常和各种各样的人打交道，这是工作的一部分，但他特别挑剔。说得够多了，你是做哪一行的?

John: Well, right out of college I worked in advertising for a while. Recently though, I turn my photography hobby into a small business. I'll actually be taking photos during the big event as a wedding gift.

嗯，大学一毕业我就在广告业工作了一段时间。最近，我把我的摄影爱好变成了一个小生意。事实上，我将在婚礼期间拍照作为结婚礼物。

Cathy: That sounds wonderful and very thoughtful of you. I bake, just as a hobby.  But Brenda has asked me to do the cake for the wedding. I was a bit nervous saying yes because I'm far from a professional.

听起来不错，你想得真周到。我烤面包，只是作为一种爱好。但是布伦达要我为婚礼做蛋糕。我有点紧张，因为我离专业还很远。

John: Did you bake the cookies here at the party tonight?

你在今晚的聚会上烤饼干了吗?

Cathy: Yes, I got the idea from a magazine.

是的，我是从一本杂志上得到这个主意的。

John: They're delicious! You've got nothing to worry about. You are a natural.

他们美味!你没什么好担心的。你是天生的。

Cathy: You really think so?

你真的这么想吗?

John: If you hadn’t told me that. I would have guessed they were baked by the restaurant.  You know, with your event planning experience you could very well open your own shop.

如果你没告诉我的话。我还以为饼干是餐厅烤的呢。你知道，凭你的活动策划经验，你完全可以开一家自己的店。

Cathy: (laughing) One step at a time. First, I'll see how baking the wedding cake goes. If it's not a disaster, maybe I'll give it some more thought.

(笑)一步一步来。首先，我要看看婚礼蛋糕是怎么做的。如果不是太糟糕的话，也许我会再考虑一下。
