A: have you heard the big news?

J: what big news?

A: Olivia and Nicholas are engaged! He proposed to her last night at a fancy restaurant.

J: I didn’t even know they were dating!

A: after Nicholas’ ex-girlfriend cheated on him, they realized that they had a great friendship and that maybe they were meant to be with each other.

J: they really are perfect for each other. I can’t think of a better-matched couple than them!

A: I heard that they are planning to have an extravagant 1 wedding ceremony in a church with a reception in an expensive restaurant on the lake.

J: have they asked anyone to be in the wedding party yet?

A: I think Nicholas asked anyone to be his best man and Olivia asked Kaitlyn to be her maid of honour. They both have big families, so their siblings 2 will be the bridesmaids and groomsmen.

J: it sounds like they’ve done a lot of planning in a very short time. Have they decided 3 where they are going to go for their honeymoon 4?

A: I haven’t heard where they will go yet, but I bet you they will go to a beach somewhere; you know how they both love surfing.

J: you know, most people find it difficult to find their soul mate, but they’ve made it seem extremely easy!


你听说那个特大新闻了吗?

什么事?

奥莉薇亚和尼古拉斯订婚啦!他昨晚在一家高级餐厅向她求婚了。

我压根就不知道他们俩在约会。

尼古拉斯的女朋友背叛了他之后,他们才意识到彼此的友情是多么深厚,对方才是自己的”那个人”.

他们俩真是天生一对。真是再没什么人比他们更般配了。

我听说他们打算在教堂办一场豪华的婚礼。还在湖边的一家高级餐厅订了酒席。

他们请了伴郎伴娘没有?

我想尼古拉斯会请杰克做伴郎,奥莉薇亚会请凯特林做伴娘。而且他们两个人家里亲戚都很多,兄弟姐妹都可以做傧相。

好像他俩在很短的时间内策划了很多事情。他们决定去哪里渡蜜月了吗?

这个倒还没听他们说过,不过我敢打赌肯定回去海边。你知道的,他们俩多喜欢冲浪。

要知道,想找到个心灵相通的伴侣有多难,可是他们俩好像手到擒来。
