【前回の課題解答】★★★

Billは友人のMarkに先日友人宅で行なわれたたこ焼きパーテイにについて話しています。
今週も男同士の会話です。

Bill: We went to Takoyaki Party over the weekend. But it is definitely not my kind of thing. I had it once before and I felt like I was chewing rubber.
週末に僕らたこ焼きパーテイに行ったんだよ。でもあのパーテイは僕の好みじゃないよ。前にも一度行ったことがあるんだけど、何だかゴムを噛んでいるような感じだった。

Mark: What the heck! Who throws that kind of party in the first place.That’s a new one for me.
なにそれ！そもそも誰がそんなパーテイを開いたんだよ？僕は初めて聞いたよ。

Bill: I guess it’s a Japanese thing not exactly sure why. But they certainly were enjoying themselves and they all ate like a horse.
どうしてだか分らないけど、日本のものだと思うよ。それに彼らとても楽しそうだったし、たくさん食べてたよ。

Mark: Make sure not to invite me to the next one of those deals. I think I’ll stick to the normal stuff. Yuck! I’ve heard of strange things but this takes the cake.
次にこのようなパーテイがあっても誘わないでね。僕は普通のパーテイが好きだから．ゲエー！変わった料理は聞いたことあるけどこれは最悪だね。

Bill: No worries. I won’t.
心配しなくてもいいよ。誘わないから。

下記の文章を訳して下さい。

Billは隣人のJoeに週末について話しています。今週も男同士の会話です。

Joe: So what did you have going on over the weekend?

Bill: Oh we laid low because my wife was under the weather and to tell you the truth she looked like crap.

Joe: What a bummer! It isn’t anything to worry about, is it? She is so healthy I can’t imagine it because she is a health freak.

Bill: Not at all. She already bounced back and is running 100 miles an hour again.

Joe: Well, take care you guys. You are not some young spring chickens any more.

Bill: Now what is that supposed to mean?

Joe: Just saying.
