Lesson 13 — A Table for Two
两位用餐
本课只有一个现实任务:从到店说明预订,到点餐、追加简单要求并结账,完成一次完整而自然的餐厅沟通。
1. Before You Start
本课目标
学完本课,你能够:
- 说明人数和预订姓名;
- 用 I'd like 和合适的数量单位点餐;
- 询问一道菜是否附带配菜,并追加简单要求;
- 遇到一道菜售罄时选择替代项;
- 在60—120秒内独立完成“入座—点餐—调整—结账”。
热身
先不用查词典,回答:
- 你在餐厅最常需要说明哪三类信息?
- “我要汤”如果逐字说成 I want soup,语法没有错,为什么仍可能显得生硬?
场景词汇
- reservation 预订
- starter 前菜
- main 主菜
- side 配菜;单点小份配菜
- sparkling water 气泡水
- still water 无气泡水
- come with 随餐附带
- check 账单(美式英语)
2. Main Conversation
Dinner at Juniper Kitchen
Aisha and Lena meet for dinner a week after the outdoor concert. Lena booked the table earlier that day.
Part A — Arriving and ordering
Host: Good evening. How many?
Lena: A table for two, please. We have a reservation under Lena Ortiz for seven.
Host: Yes, I have it here. Right this way.
Server: Would you like still or sparkling water?
Aisha: Still water, please. Could we have two glasses?
Server: Of course. Are you ready to order?
Lena: I think so. I'd like the tomato soup to start and the grilled chicken as my main.
Aisha: Does the chicken come with a side?
Server: Yes. It comes with potatoes or a green salad.
Aisha: Great. I'd like the chicken with the salad, please. Could I have the dressing on the side?
Server: Certainly. I'm sorry, but we've just sold the last bowl of tomato soup.
Lena: Oh. What other starters do you have?
Server: We have a small plate of roasted vegetables and some garlic bread.
Lena: Then I'll have the roasted vegetables. That's all for now.
Part B — One more request
Aisha: The food looks great. Could we have some more water when you have a moment?
Server: Sure. Is everything else okay?
Lena: Yes, thank you. The vegetables were a good choice.
Aisha: And this salad is bigger than I expected.
Lena: Do you want help with it?
Aisha: Actually, could you do me a favor and take one of these potatoes? I could really use your help.
Lena: That's a serious request, but I accept.
Aisha: I really appreciate it.
Lena: Happy to help.
Aisha: When we're ready, could we get the check, please?
Server: Of course. I'll bring it over.

3. 中文译文需要时展开
在 Juniper Kitchen 吃晚餐
户外音乐会一周后,艾莎和莉娜约好一起吃晚餐。莉娜当天早些时候已经订好了桌位。
Part A — 到店与点餐
领位员: 晚上好。请问几位?
莉娜: 两位,谢谢。我们订了七点的桌位,登记姓名是 Lena Ortiz。
领位员: 好的,我这里查到了。请跟我来。
服务员: 请问要普通水还是气泡水?
艾莎: 普通水,谢谢。可以给我们两个杯子吗?
服务员: 当然。你们可以点餐了吗?
莉娜: 应该可以了。我想先要一份番茄汤,主菜要烤鸡肉。
艾莎: 鸡肉配有配菜吗?
服务员: 有,可以选土豆或者蔬菜沙拉。
艾莎: 好。我要烤鸡肉配沙拉。沙拉酱可以另外放吗?
服务员: 当然可以。很抱歉,最后一碗番茄汤刚刚卖完了。
莉娜: 哦。你们还有什么其他前菜?
服务员: 有一小份烤蔬菜,还有蒜香面包。
莉娜: 那我要烤蔬菜。暂时就这些。
Part B — 再提一个请求
艾莎: 菜看起来很不错。你方便的时候,可以再给我们加点水吗?
服务员: 可以。其他都还好吗?
莉娜: 都很好,谢谢。烤蔬菜选得不错。
艾莎: 而且这份沙拉比我想的大。
莉娜: 要我帮你吃一点吗?
艾莎: 其实,你能帮我个忙,吃掉这里面的一块土豆吗?我真的很需要你帮忙。
莉娜: 这个请求很严肃,不过我接受。
艾莎: 太感谢了。
莉娜: 乐意效劳。
艾莎: 等我们吃完,可以把账单拿来吗?
服务员: 当然。我一会儿给你们送过来。
翻译提示:餐厅里的 A table for two, please 是简洁自然的到店表达,不必逐字说成“请给我一张两人的桌子”。on the side 表示酱汁等食物“另外盛放”。
4. Read, Notice, Understand
A. Read the menu
JUNIPER KITCHEN — DINNER MENU
Starters
Tomato soup — $7 a bowl
Roasted vegetables — $8 a small plate
Garlic bread — $6 a basket
Mains
Grilled chicken — $19; comes with potatoes or a green salad
Mushroom pasta — $17
Baked fish — $21; comes with rice and vegetables
Drinks
Still water — no charge
Sparkling water — $4 a bottle
不回看对话,回答:
- Which main has two included sides?
- How much is one bottle of sparkling water?
- You do not eat meat. Which main can you choose from this menu?
- Order one starter for two people using a container word from the menu.
B. Read the reservation note
Reservation
Name: Lena Ortiz
Party: 2
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Table held until: 7:15 p.m.
用一句英文向同行者转告:预订姓名、人数、时间和最晚保留时间。
C. 为什么用数量单位
英语里有些食物通常不直接数:water, soup, bread, rice。点餐时可以用容器或份量单位把信息说清楚:
two glasses of water
a bowl of soup
a basket of bread
a side of rice
这不是重新背一遍所有可数/不可数规则。本课只训练餐厅里真正需要的“点几份、用什么单位”。
5. What People Actually Say
本课负荷说明
本课有6项全新主动表达:第1—6项。第7—10项是服务人员常用语或旧语言复用,先做到听懂并能回应。
1. A table for two, please.
请给我们一张两人桌。到店时直接、礼貌地说明人数。
A table for three, please.
2. We have a reservation under …
我们用……的名字订了位。under 后接预订记录上的姓名。
We have a reservation under Chen.
3. I'd like …
我想要……。点餐时中性、自然,比 I want … 更柔和。
I'd like a bowl of soup and the baked fish.
4. Could we have …?
我们可以要……吗?适合点饮料、餐具或追加一份共享食物。
Could we have another glass of water?
5. Does that come with …?
那个附带……吗?用于确认价格中是否已经包括配菜或其他项目。
Does that come with rice?
6. Could we get the check, please?
可以给我们账单吗?美式餐厅里礼貌、自然。英式英语常说 bill。
We're ready. Could we get the check, please?
7. Are you ready to order?
服务人员询问是否可以点餐。还没准备好可说 Could we have another minute?。
8. That's all for now.
暂时就这些。表示这一轮点完了,不等于之后不能追加。
9. Could I have … on the side?
可以把……另外放吗?常用于酱汁或调味汁。
10. When you have a moment, …
您方便时……。用于不紧急的小请求,不适合真正紧急的情况。
Don't Say It That Way
| 容易说出的句子 | 更自然的表达 | 原因 |
|---|---|---|
| Give me water. | Could we have some water? | 服务请求需要基本礼貌 |
| I want chicken. | I'd like the chicken, please. | 点餐更柔和,也更明确 |
| Is rice free? | Does that come with rice? | 问的是是否包含,不一定是“免费” |
| Pay. | Could we get the check, please? | 说明真实意图并保持礼貌 |
6. Grammar Refresh — 用I'd like和份量单位点清楚
1. 一份具体菜品
菜单上的具体项目可以直接放在 I'd like 后:
I'd like the grilled chicken.
I'd like the tomato soup to start.
这里的 the 指菜单上双方都看得到的那一道菜。
2. 数量不清楚时补上单位
some water → two glasses of water
some soup → a bowl of soup
some bread → a basket of bread
some 适合不强调准确数量;容器词适合订单必须可核对时。
3. 一人点餐与多人共同请求
I'd like the pasta.
Could we have a basket of bread?
第一句是个人选择;第二句常是整桌共同请求。它们不是绝对规则,但能帮助你快速组织自然表达。
快速练习
用合适的形式完成。
- __________ a table for four, please. (arrive at the restaurant)
- We have a reservation __________ Patel.
- I'd like __________ baked fish. (one menu item)
- Could we have two __________ water?
- Does the pasta come __________ a salad?
- We'd like a __________ garlic bread to share.
7. Sound Natural — I'd like与Could we的轻重
本课网页已配有完整对话、逐句播放和影子跟读。重点听点餐请求中的礼貌语气、数量表达,以及服务员说明售罄时的处理方式。
自然点餐时,功能词通常较轻,食物和数量最清楚:
I'd like the GRILLED CHICKEN.
Could we have TWO GLASSES of water?
Does that come with RICE?
I'd 是 I would 的缩略形式。不要把它逐词读得过重:
I'd like / the chicken / with a green salad.
请求结尾的 please 不需要特别重;礼貌主要来自完整表达和合作语调。
录音
读下面订单两遍。第二遍不要逐词停顿:
A table for two, please. We have a reservation under Wang. I'd like the baked fish, and could we have a basket of garlic bread? Does the fish come with rice? Great. That's all for now.
回听:姓名、人数、菜名和数量是否最清楚?
8. Practice
A. 理解检查
判断正误。
- Aisha made the reservation.
- They order sparkling water.
- The chicken can come with potatoes or salad.
- Lena receives the tomato soup she first chooses.
- Aisha asks for the dressing separately.
- They leave without asking for the check.
B. 完成服务对话
从方框选择,每项只用一次。
A table for two, please. · under Brooks · I'd like · Could we have · come with · get the check
- “Good evening. How many?” “__________”
- “Do you have a reservation?” “Yes, __________.”
- “What would you like?” “__________ the pasta.”
- “__________ some bread?”
- “Does the fish __________ rice?”
- “We're finished. Could we __________, please?”
C. 从菜单生成订单
根据第3部分菜单,写出四句英文:
- 两人入座;
- 一人点一份主菜;
- 两人共享一份前菜;
- 询问主菜是否带配菜。
D. 售罄后的未知变化
请真人伙伴或语音助手从菜单中暗中选一道“售罄”的菜。你先点餐;对方只在你点到那道菜时通知你,并给两个真实存在的替代项。你需要:
- 表示听懂;
- 问还有什么;
- 选择一个替代项;
- 重新确认完整订单。
E. Lesson 12间隔检索
遮住前课表达。只读英文情境,五秒内开始回应。
- At the table, ask a close friend to take one heavy serving dish from your hands before you give the details.
- Explain that carrying the two hot dishes alone is difficult and the friend's assistance would be valuable.
- The friend agrees immediately. Give a sincere, stronger-than-basic thank-you.
参考答案在第9部分。只有实际说出目标词块才登记R。
F. 独立口语
看第3部分菜单,准备20秒,然后录一段60—90秒独白,独自扮演顾客和服务人员。必须包括:
- 人数和预订姓名;
- 水的种类与数量;
- 一份主菜和一份共享前菜;
- 一次“是否附带”的询问;
- 一项售罄后的替代选择;
- 结账。
9. Make It Yours
任务一:完成你的真实订单
用你真正会点的食物替换菜单内容。只写关键词,不写整篇台词,然后完成60—120秒互动:
- 到店说明人数或预订;
- 点两项食物和一种饮料;
- 追加一个合理要求;
- 对方随机宣布一项不可提供;
- 选择替代项并复述订单;
- 请求结账。
至少自然使用本课6项全新主动表达中的5项。
任务二:实用互动写作
给餐厅写一条40—60词的英文预订消息,包含日期、时间、人数、预订姓名和一个简单问题。请学习伙伴回复,并随机改变一个条件:原时间不可用、只剩室外座位或必须提前15分钟到。再写30—50词确认或提出替代方案。
三天后的复习
不看教材,根据任意一张真实菜单完成:
Book or request a table, order a meal for two, respond to one unavailable item, and ask for the check.
如果你只会报菜名而不能形成完整服务对话,重做第7部分B、D。
