7 養寵物 對話
Steven wants to keep a pet, but he has no idea in his mind. So he asks Alice to give him some advice.
史蒂文想養寵物，但是他不清楚要買什麼。於是他向愛麗絲徵求建議。
Steven: I want to keep a pet, but I don't know which one to buy?
史蒂文：我想養只寵物，但我實在拿不定主意該買什麼？
Alice: Dogs are nice, but they are really energetic, and you need to make sure they get enough exercise every day.
愛麗絲：小狗很可愛呀，不過它們太好動了，最好每天都能帶它們去遛遛。
Steven: Having a dog would probably be too much work for me, then.
史蒂文：那我恐怕沒那麼多時間養狗了。
Alice: What about cats? They are more independent.
愛麗絲：那養貓吧，貓沒那麼黏人。
Steven: Actually, I was thinking of something a little more exotic. I don't want a common pet like a dog or a cat.
史蒂文:實際上我想要一隻特別點兒的寵物，不想要貓、狗這些常見的。
Alice: How about a lizard? Are lizards more along the lines of what you were thinking of getting?
愛麗絲：養只蜥蜴？蜥蜴夠特別吧？
Steven: Yeah, are they easy to look after?
史蒂文：不錯，蜥蜴好養嗎？
Alice: Yeah, they are pretty low-maintenance; they eat almost anything.
愛麗絲：嗯，挺好養的，基本上什麼都吃。
