In hot weather, you can keep cool by drinking something cold. Add fruits or vegetables to a glass of water. Two popular choices are lemons and cucumbers. Several slices of lemon or cucumber make the water taste fresh. If you want something other than water, try a smoothie! Smoothies are similar to juice. But they are much thicker. They often have milk in them. People often drink smoothies through a big straw. These drinks only take a few minutes to make. They’re yummy and good for you!

你在大热天可以借着喝冷饮降温。在一杯水里添加水果和蔬菜,柠檬和小黄瓜是两种热门选择。只要几片柠檬或小黄瓜,就可以让水喝起来清爽怡人。你如果不想喝水,就试试果昔吧!果昔和果汁很像,但是浓稠得多,而且经常会添加牛奶。一般人经常会用大吸管喝果昔。制作这些饮料只需要花几分钟,不但美味,也对身体有益!

(在丛林咖啡馆)
蒂娜: 嘿,葛瑞格,今天可真热!
葛瑞格: 是啊!我真想喝点冷饮。
蒂娜: 你可以在冰水里放几片柠檬,这样会很好喝。
葛瑞格: 不要,我想喝除了水以外的饮料。
蒂娜: 好吧,看看饮料单。
葛瑞格: 哇,这些选项还真多。
蒂娜: 果昔又冰又好喝。
葛瑞格: 嗯,这个主意还不错!
Conversation B
Tina: I love smoothies!
Greg: So why aren’t you ordering one?
Tina: I will, in a minute. But I need to find my straw.
Greg: You bring your own straw?
Tina: Always. This won’t end up in the ocean and hurt sea turtles.
Greg: Sweet! OK, I want a smoothie with milk in it.
Tina: Then try the strawberry banana smoothie. It’s so good!
Greg: OK. I’ll try it.

蒂娜: 我爱喝果昔!
葛瑞格: 那你怎么不点?
蒂娜: 我会的,等一下就会点。可是我必须找到我的吸管。
葛瑞格: 你有带自己的吸管?
蒂娜: 一定要的。这种吸管最后不会流落到海里对海龟造成伤害。
葛瑞格: 真棒!好,我要一杯加牛奶的果昔。
蒂娜: 那就试试看草莓香蕉果昔吧,真的很好喝喔!
葛瑞格: 好,我试试看。
