乔治:让开点!国王的野餐在这,我要开始施展我的烧烤魔法啦。
Sophia: Here are the burgers and hot dogs. The kids are pretty hungry.
索菲亚:这里有汉堡和热狗,孩子们都饥肠辘辘了。
George: Hold on. I need to put on the charcoal. Now I’m ready to fire up this barbecue. Where’s the lighter fluid?
乔治:等一等啊。我需要先放好木炭,现在我要开始点火烧烤了,火机油在哪啊?
Sophia: It’s right here.
索菲亚:在这呢。
George: Good. Oh, I almost forgot. I’ll need to gather some wood to burn to give the meat that smoky flavor.
乔治:好的,啊,我差点忘了,我得收集更多的木头来烧,这样才能让肉有烟熏味。
Sophia: Why don’t I do that while you get things going?
索菲亚:要不我去找木头,你留在这继续整?
George: No, I need to do things my way. I also need to make my world-famous barbecue sauce. The meat won’t taste very good if I don’t baste it with my special sauce each time I flip it.
乔治:不用了,我得自己来。我还需要我那举世闻名的烤肉调味酱。如果每次翻面时,不涂上我那特制的酱,这肉就吃着不是那么香。

Sophia: Is there anything I can do to hurry things along?
索菲亚:为了让事情进行的快点,有什么是我可以帮忙的吗?
