第17课：没礼貌的 - 1

　　【迷你小对话】

　　A: The restaurant patrons were so ill-behaved this evening that I could hardly tolerate it.

　　B: Honestly, I was a bit shocked at their impolite behavior! I finally had to be very frank with him and said, “Look, you need to quiet your party down, otherwise we will have to ask you leave.”

　　A: 饭店里这些主顾今晚举止也太恶劣了，我真受不了了。

　　B: 说实话，他们的无礼行为让我有点吃惊。最后我不得不很坦率地对他说：“听着，你必须让你的人安静下来，否则我们就只好请你们走人了。”
