Jasmine:I'm so tired! I don't know how I'm going to make it through this lecture.
Sean: the professor is a bit boring today. You need something to perk yourself up. How about a coffee?
J: I don't really like coffee, to be honest. It's too bitter for me.
S: well, you need something to wake you up. How about a soda?
J: most sofe drinks have too much sugar in them.
S: the diet sodas don't have any caffeice in it?
J: I like diet sprite. Does that have any caffeine in it?
S: unfortunately, it doesn't. how about some diet coke?
J: I don't care for coke. I heard that coke was first used as a medicine and I don't like medicine. What else has caffeine?
S: maybe you should try a cappuccino or a latte; they taste much better than plain brewed coffee.
J: maybe. How about a mochaccino? Are they any good?
S: you'll love that. It's just a shot of espresso beans mixed with steam milk and some chocolate syrup.
J: that's perfect! Would you like one, too? My treat.
S: thanks, but I'll stick with some jasmine tea. I'm trying to watch my diet.
累死我了!我不知道该怎么熬过这一整节课.
今天讲课的教授的确有点枯燥乏味.你需要点东西来提提神.咖啡怎么样?
老实说我不怎么爱喝咖啡.那东西对我来说太苦了.
哦,你需要提神.苏打水怎么样?
大多数苏打水都糖分太高.
低卡汽水里就没那么多糖了.你爱喝哪一种?
我爱喝雪碧.里面含咖啡因吗?
可惜不含.健怡可乐怎么样?
我不喜欢喝可乐.据说可乐原来是药用的,我可不喜欢喝药.还有什么饮料里有咖啡因呢?
也许你可以来一杯卡普奇诺或者拿铁咖啡.这两种都比普通咖啡好喝.
也许吧.摩卡奇诺怎么样?好喝吗?
你一定会喜欢.是少许意大利特浓咖啡豆煮好后,配上鲜奶打成的泡沫,再加巧克力浆调配而成的.
好极了!你也来一杯吧?我请客.
谢谢,不过我还是喝茉莉花茶吧,我正在节食.
