【前回の課題解答】★★★★

Billと隣人のJohnがHouse cleaningについて話しています。

John: Why do you look so rough? Did you roll around in the dirt or something?
どうしてそんなにひどい顔しているの？地面かどこかに転がりまわったとか？

Bill: No, I just wanted to clean the top of the fridge and then one thing lead to another.
違うよ。僕は冷蔵庫の上を掃除したかったんだけど、どんどん掃除をすることになって。

John: I understand that all to well. You just mean to do one little thing and before you know it everything is upside down.
それってよく分かるよ。ちょっとだけ片付けるつもりだったのが気がついたら、あっちもこっちもメチャクチャになったんだろう。

Bill: Yap, but boy this place is spic and span now and it’s just as well I did it, because, we are going to have a house full next month.
その通り、でもすごく綺麗に片付いたよ。やっておいてよかった。来月になれば大勢の人が来るからね。

John: That’s right you got guests coming in from Japan so you will really have your hands full. Good thing you got on it now.
そうだったよね。多くのゲストが日本から来るんだよね。そうしたら本当に忙しくなるよ。今やっておいて良かったよ。

Billと親友のJasonはミニバケーション について話しています。

Bill: I think we are going to hop in the car and go on a road trip.

Jason: Where do you have in mind and what brought this about?

Bill: I just need to get out of dodge for a day or two. I’m thinking somewhere off the beaten path.

Jason: Up North have a lot of cool places like that and it’s beautiful this time of the year.

Bill: That maybe a thought but I’ll give you a ring once we figure out where the heck we are headed.

Jason: Well have a good one and air out a couple of days.

Bill: Thanks man.
