《English Translation》

刘娜: David, what do you think is the difference between American and Chinese food?
大卫: I think American food is very simple, like burgers and pizza. It’s quick to make.
刘娜: Chinese food takes time. Sometimes, preparation can take a long time.
大卫: Yes, I think Chinese food has many flavors—salty, sweet, spicy. It’s very interesting.
刘娜: Also, when Chinese people eat, they put the dishes in the middle of the table and everyone shares.
大卫: Right, Americans usually eat their own portion and rarely share from the same plate.
刘娜: Which one do you prefer?
大卫: I think sharing is better because you can try many different dishes!
刘娜: Then I’ll teach you how to cook some Chinese dishes, okay?
大卫: Great! Thank you, teacher!
