Gucci: It's too expensive. Ten cookies cost a bundle 1.
May: I noticed that they have Italian buffet 2 upstairs. Maybe we should have chosen that?
Gucci: Let's do it, now.
May: What is the charge of buffet for each person?
Waitress: It depends on your weight. Come on to the scale 3, please!
Gucci: Interesting! Look, I'm 45kg.

Waitress: 50 yuan for each.
Gucci: I love it. Look, they've got everything.

Gucci: It's the only neat decision we made today!
May: It is. And it's not all bad now.
Gucci: No more for me. I'll all set.

经典背诵 Recitation
MayI love buffet. Better yet if it's an Italian buffet. There is one such place, downtown. It's interesting that the customers there would be charged by their weight.The only problem about it is overeating. People just don't know when to s. Anyway you can't have everything.
生词小结
bundle n. 堆，捆
notice vt. 注意
buffet n. 自助餐
cheese n. 奶酪
pudding n. 布丁
注释
1.Ten cookies cost a bundle.
Bundle本意为“一大堆”，这里指的是“一大堆钱”，中文口语中也有相似的表达方法，例：“好贵啊，花了我一大堆钱。”
2.You can't get everything.
get在这里的意思是“得到”，直译为你不能得到每一件东西。（可见总有遗憾。）所以也较容易想到意译应为：做不到十全十美。
