It's driving me crazy. 你一直用笔敲桌子，快把我逼疯了。B: Fine! By the way, would you mind not slurping your coffee every time you have a cup?好吧，顺便说一句，你喝咖啡的时候可以不要一直啜啜啜发出声音吗？A: I don't slurp my coffee. And plus, how can you hear it when you're shouting into your phone all the time?我没有啜啜响的喝咖啡。还有，你每次都对着电话大声喊，怎么可能听到我的声音？B: You've got to be kidding me! You're complaining about me talking on the phone when you go out for a cigarette break ten times a day to shoot the breeze. 你在开玩笑吧？你现在是在抱怨我在你一天有10次趁抽烟休息时间出去闲扯的时候讲电话吗？A: Look, we have a lot of accumulated anger from working in these conditions, and it's probably okay to let off steam once in a while. But it's probably not a good idea to keep it up. I'm willing to forgive and forget if you are.你看看，在这样的情况下工作，我们心里都有很多积愤。也许偶尔发泄一次是好的，但是一直这样子可不好。我想握手言和了，如果你也想的话。B: Fine. Let's call a truce. I'll try to be more considerate and to keep the noise down.好的，我们休战吧。我会试着多考虑别人，把讲话声音压低一些的。A: Yeah, I'll try to do the same. So, I was wondering you wanna go out to dinner Friday night?我也会。所以我想知道，周五晚上你要不要一起出去吃晚饭？Pronunciation:cut that out→daʊcut what out→daʊwould you→dʒuhave a cup→vəhear it→rɪgo out for a→waʊrəten times a→zəhave a lot of→və;dəand it's→dɪlet off→dɔonce in a while→sɪnənot a good idea→də; daɪkeep it up→pɪdəforgive and forget→vəncall a truce→lə
