Dialogue: (對話)
Hope: | Hey, Joey, how are you doing today? |
Joey: | Not bad. Just a little busy. How about you, Hope? |
Hope: | I am fine here, but why do you say you are a little busy? |
Joey: | You see, the Dragon Boat Festival is coming and I am now wondering which types of Zongzi to order on the Internet. |
Hope: | Oh? Is it coming, the Dragon Boat Festival? |
Joey: | It’s next Monday, on June 10th. |
Hope: | No wonder you are here to browse the Net! |
Joey: | Browse the Net? 瀏覽網路嗎? |
Hope: | Yes, that’s right. You are browsing the Net to shop for something. |
Joey: | Yes, I am browsing the Net to shop for some Zongzi for the Dragon Boat Festival. |
Hope: | Talking about Zongzi, what kind of Zongzi are you looking for? |
Joey: | Well, I hope to find the Zongzi 不只好吃而且健康. And I found there are so many kinds of Zongzi selling on the Internet. Look at this web page! |
Hope: | So, you are looking for Zongzi which is not only tasty but also healthy, right?. |
Joey: | Right! I want to buy Zongzi which is not only tasty but also healthy. |
Hope: | Hmm…I suggest you compare the ingredients of Zongzi provided by every shop. Then you could find the best ones you like. |
Joey: | 對齁! I can 比較各家的成分原料,再決定買哪一家的! |
Hope: | Look! Here! It says their Zongzi is made of glutinous rice with fillings like pork belly, salted egg yolks, and some bamboo shoots, etc. |
Joey: | “Salted egg yolks” I know is 鹹蛋黃, and Bamboo shoots? 筍子嗎? |
Hope: | Yes. Bamboo shoots are筍子. |
Joey: | So, pork belly…pork belly…豬的肚子…五花肉?! |
Hope: | Bingo! Pork belly is the part on a pig’s belly. |
Joys: | So, this shop makes their Zongzi with glutinous rice 糯米with fillings 內餡like pork belly 五花肉, salted egg yolks鹹蛋黃, and some bamboo shoots筍子. |
Hope: | I think bamboo shoots sound good, but pork belly and salted egg yolks might be too rich if you consider to eat something healthy. I suggest you look for some fillings which are high-fiber and low-calories. |
Joey: | High-fiber and low-calories? What are they? |
Hope: | High-fiber and low-calories means 高纖and低卡路里 |
Joey: | You are right! I had better look for some ingredients which are high-fiber and low calories. |
Hope: | Look at this one. Let’s look at the ingredients. |
Joey: | They make their Zongzi with quinoa and fillings include mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, tofu and chestnuts. What are king oyster mushrooms and chestnuts? |
Hope: | King Oyster mushroom is杏鮑菇 and chestnuts are 栗子. |
Joey: | Hey, it looks healthier than the last one. |
Hope: | Anyway, no matter how delicious a Zongzi is, you should remember not to eat too many Zongzi in one day to avoid an upset stomach. |
Joey: | Got it! |
