Cindy: What's that?

Shirley: Are you Chinese or what? It's embroidery, of course!

Cindy: Sis, don't get me wrong. I know what it is. I mean why are they doing this here?

Shirley: It's a strategy to attract more customers. Isn't it interesting?

Cindy: Very interesting and it does seem to work. This place is packed.

Shirley: What's more, you can pay some money to have a try if you want. Want a try?

Cindy: I'd rather save the chance for others. I don't think I have the talent for that.

Shirley: Is there anything you can make with your own hands?

Cindy: Sure. There is a DIY Bar on the next street. Let's go there!

Shirley: What is the DIY thing? Bar? Do you go to the bar during the day time?

Cindy: Don't you know the place? It's really near. DIY means Do It Yourself.

Shirley: So, what do you do there? Surely not needle work!

Cindy: I make ceramic cups there. Do you remember the gift I gave you for your last birthday? Those two cups?

Shirley: Oh, sure. One of them has a small hole on its bottom. You didn't say they were made by you. Why didn't you tell us?

Cindy: I had planned to. But you guys said they're too ugly. So I changed my mind. But, I'm much better now. Trust me.

Shirley: OK. Let's just go to the DIY Bar and check it out.

辛迪:那是什么?

雪莉:你是中国人,还是外国人啊?那当然是刺绣啊!

辛迪:姐姐,别弄错了。我当然知道这个是什么。我的意思是为什么在这里刺绣啊?

雪莉:这是招揽顾客的策略啊。不是很有趣吗?

辛迪:是很有趣,看来这策略挺管用的。这里都挤满人了。

雪莉:还有,付一点钱就可以尝试的。你想试试吗?

辛迪:我还是把机会让给别人吧。我觉得我没有做这个的天赋。

雪莉:有什么东西是你能够亲身制作的吗?

辛迪:当然了。下一条街上有一个“手工自助吧”。我们去那里吧。

雪莉:这“手工自助吧”是什么啊?你白天还去酒吧玩吗?

辛迪:你不知道那个地方吗?离这儿很近的。“手工自助”的意思是自己动手制作。

雪莉:那么,你在那里做什么呢?一定不是针线活吧?

辛迪:在那里,我可以自己制作陶瓷茶杯。还记得你上次生日时我送你的礼物吗?那两个茶杯?

雪莉:哦,当然了。它们中的一个底下还有一个洞呢。你没有说那是你自己做的啊。你怎么不告诉我们呢?

辛迪:我原来打算告诉你们的。可你们都说它们太丑了。所以我就改变主意了。但是我现在做得强多了。相信我。

雪莉:可以啊。我们去那个“手工自助吧”看看你的手艺吧。
