A: Alright. First thing anyone needs is light to see by at night. Let's get a few lamps.
B: I think we'll need at least two floor lamps for the TV room. And maybe one for each bedroom?
A: Sounds good. I don't think the ____1____ lights will be bright enough. Also, we should get a coffee table and an ottoman for the TV room——I need a place to put my feet up!
B: Now, for the kitchen, we need quite a bit of stuff. First, a ____2____ and a toaster. I think we're pretty set with pots and pans. But we do need utensils like ____3____, ____4____ and kitchen knives. Silverware wouldn't be a bad idea either!
A: Hey——don't forget ____5____ either! For the bathroom we need a shower curtain, a ____6____, and a medicine cabinet. Also there's no mirror so we should pick one of those up as well. Oh, and don't forget ____7____!
B: For the bedrooms I think we need quite a bit of stuff as well. ____8____, comforters, pillows, and new mattresses because the ones our apartment came with are too old.
A: We also need curtains or shades because right now the neighbors can see in. I also want a ____9____, an alarm clock and some clothes ____10____.
B: Otherwise I think all we need is a phone, an answering machine, and I need to get a replacement TV remote because the old one broke while I was moving. Oops!
A: That's ok. No worries. Well, we've got a lot of work to do——let's get started!

A: 好啦,首先大家都需要晚上照明,所以我們得買幾盞燈。
B: 我想我們至少要買兩盞落地?zé)舴旁谟须娨暤哪莻€房間,各自臥室也要有一盞。
A: 聽起來不錯。我想吊燈不夠亮??蛷d里我們還該有個茶幾、一個腳踏——我得有個地方放腳??!
B: 現(xiàn)在輪到廚房了,我們需要不少東西。首先,需要個微波爐,一個烤面包機。我覺得我們鍋夠了,可還需要些餐具像勺子、鏟和刀之類的東西。銀具應(yīng)該是首選啊。

B: 還有臥室我們也有不少東西得買呢。床單、被子、枕頭、床墊,公寓里原來的那些太舊了。
A: 還需要窗簾或者百葉窗,因為現(xiàn)在鄰居可以直接看進來。我還想買床頭柜、鬧鐘和一些衣架。
B: 另外,我想我們需要一部電話、一部留言機,還需要換個電視遙控器,舊的那個我搬家的時候摔壞了。
A: 行,別擔(dān)心。我們有好多事情要做,開始吧。
