Pat is asking Mommy about the shops

佩特在向媽媽詢問商店

Pat

What are we going to buy first, Mommy?

Mommy

Well, I’m looking in the shop windows. I’m looking for a shop that sells potatoes and tomatoes.

Pat

Oh, look at that shop window over there! That shop has tomatoes!

Mommy

All right. I’ll stop the car here. You get out, go into the shop and ask if their tomatoes are new. I don’t want any old tomatoes.

Pat

All right.

Mommy

And I think that shop should sell potatoes, too. If they do, buy some potatoes. But don’t get any old ones!

Pat

How many should I buy?

Mommy

Buy enough for one week. But remember, Daddy eats a lot of potatoes so you will need to get a lot.

Pat

Yes, and if Tom comes to dinner, we will need a lot more of everything. Should I buy some meat, too?

Mommy

I don’t think that shop sells meat. Go into the shop next to it. I think that shop sells meat. If they do, buy some chicken.

Pat

All right. I’ll go now. Excuse me please, Lee. Let me get out of the car please.

Mommy

Thank you, Pat. After you buy the tomatoes, potatoes and chicken, we’ll go down this road a little more.

Pat

Why?

Mommy

I want to look for a shop that sells fish, and then a shop that sells orange-juice. Oh, and Pat?

Pat

Yes?

Mommy

Don’t take a long time. I can’t stop the car here long.

Pat

All right, Mommy. I won’t be long.

佩特

我們要先買什麼，媽媽？

媽媽

哦，我在看商店櫥窗裡面。我在找賣土豆和西紅柿的商店。

佩特

啊，看那裡的商店櫥窗！那家商店有西紅柿。

媽媽

好。我會把車停在這兒。你下車，去商店問問他們的西紅柿是否新鮮。我不

想要不新鮮的西紅柿。

佩特

好的。

媽媽

我想那家商店也賣土豆。如果是，買些土豆。但是不要買不新鮮的土豆。

佩特

我要買多少呢？

媽媽

買夠吃一週的。不過記住，爸爸吃的土豆多，所以你需要買多些。

佩特

好的，如果湯姆來用餐，我們每樣食物都得買多些。我還應該買肉嗎？

媽媽

我想那家商店不賣肉。去旁邊那家商店。我想旁邊那家商店賣肉。如果是，買些雞肉。

佩特

好。我現在去了。請借過一下，李。請讓我下車。

媽媽

謝謝你，佩特。你買了西紅柿、土豆和雞肉後，我們會沿路向前開車。

佩特

為什麼？

媽媽

我想要找賣魚的商店和賣橙汁的商店。哦，佩特？

佩特

怎麼啦？

媽媽

不要花太長時間。我在這兒不能停車太長時間。

佩特

好的，媽媽。我不會花太長時間。
