哦,have company就是“有客人在”的意思。对了,professor, potluck dinner是什么意思?
Professor: At some dinner parties the host prepares all the food for the guests. But at a potluck dinner, all the guests each bring a dish to share with the other guests.
我明白了,potluck dinner就是客人都自己带菜,大家一起吃的聚餐。
Doug: Don't worry Robert! Even though we can't eat the steak, we've got lots of other good stuff to eat. Come and sit down at the table.
Robert: Great! I'm starving. What are we having?
Liz: I really hope you like it! I've prepared a three-course meal for you. For our appetizer we're having carrots, for the entree we're having chicken, and for the desert we're having chocolate cake.
Robert: Well that sounds great .... but did you say we're having chicken for the main course? I thought you didn't eat meat!
Liz: Oh don't be ridiculous! It's not real chicken. It's fake chicken, made from tofu.
Robert: Doug, did she say we're having fake chicken made from tofu?
Doug: That's right. Trust me, it sounds pretty weird, but I'm sure you're going to love it.
Professor Bowman, 什么叫 three-course meal?
Professor: When you go to dinner in America, each dish is served one after another. Each dish is called a "course," so if there is a three-course meal, that means three dishes are being served and they are "appetizer", "entree", and "desert".
