Billy: It's Chinese New Year! That means it's time to eat hot pot!

Jennifer: Let's eat the kind that has both spicy and mild broth in one pot.

Billy: You mean half-and-half?

Jennifer: Yep. That way I can satisfy my craving for spicy food and you can eat hot pot without burning into flames.

Billy: Good idea.

Jennifer: Let's go!

比　利：农历年到了!代表现在是吃火锅的时节!

珍妮花：咱们来吃那种锅子里的汤一边辣，一边不辣的。

比　利：你是说鸳鸯锅?

珍妮花：对。如此一来我可以解吃辣的馋，你也不会吃到喷火。

比　利：好主意。

珍妮花：咱们走!
