A：Morgan, can I ask you a question?摩根,我可以問你一個問題嗎?
B：Sure, what is it?當然可以,什么事?
A：I was just wondering if many Chinese people take their leftover food home from a restaurant.我想知道中國人在飯館吃完飯之后,會不會把沒吃完的東西打包帶回家.
B：In most cities in China, doogie bags are quite uncommon.中國大多數城市的人都很少打包的.
A：What happen to all the leftover food?那剩飯剩菜怎么處理呢?
B：It usually goes to the dump.一般就倒掉了.
A：That seems like an awful waste! Why don't people order fewer dishes so that they don't have to throw so much away at the end of the meal?那可太浪費了!大家為什么不少點一些菜呢,這樣就可以避免吃完飯后剩下太多了.
B：Ordering a lot of food at restaurants is just a tradition in China. You know, in the past, people could not afford to eat out like they can today.在飯館吃飯點很多菜是中國人的一項傳統習慣.要知道,過去人們可不像現在這樣什么都能吃得起.
A：I guess that makes sense. I just think it would make more sense to take the leftovers home.你這么解釋我就明白了.我只是覺得把剩菜打包會更好.
B：Well, if you want, you can take the leftovers home.嗯,如果你愿意,你就打包帶回去吧.
A：No, that's OK. You know what they say when in Rome…不用,沒關系的.你知道俗話說的好:入鄉…(隨俗)
B：I was impressed that you tried the pig's feet. I heard that many foreigners don't like to eat them.你敢吃豬蹄我很驚訝.我聽說很多外國人都不愛吃這個.
A：Many people in my generation don't eat pig's feet, but my parents grew up eating them, so I think they are OK.我這一代的人不怎么吃豬蹄,不過,我父母他們小時候常吃,所以我覺得吃這個也無所謂.
B：Did you like them? You could take the last one home with you.你覺得好吃嗎?你可以把最后一個帶回家.
A：That's OK. I'll try anything once, but sometimes, once is enough!還行.我一般什么東西都會嘗嘗,不過,有的東西吃一次就足夠了.
