Good afternoon, sir. You are really a regular customer here. May I ask you why you come here so often?
早上好，先生。您可真是我們這裡的常客啊。我能問一下您為什麼常常來這裡啊?
Customer：
I'm a newspaper columnist. I write comments for a living. I enjoy working in a coffeehouse.
我是報紙的專欄作家。我靠寫評論為生。我喜歡在咖啡廳裡工作啊。
May：
I see. But isn't it a bit too noisy?
知道了。但是這裡不會有點吵嗎?
Customer：
I don't mind. By contrast, I quite like the circumstances, as I can see a variety of people here, who can always give me tremendous inspiration. And the most important thing is coffee as it is my life.
我不介意。相反，我喜歡這樣的環境，因為在這裡我可以看到不同的人，他們會給我帶來很多的靈感。而且最重要的是咖啡可是我的生命啊。
May：
I can see that. Then what is your favorite coffee?
可以看得出來。那您最喜歡的咖啡是哪種?
Customer：
Irish coffee is my favorite. But I can drink any other. I'm not particular on it.
愛爾蘭咖啡是我的最愛。但是我也可以喝別的。我並不挑剔的。
May：
All right. Would you make coffee yourself when you are at home?
嗯。那您在家的時候會自己煮咖啡喝嗎?
Customer：
Not very often. Making coffee is a bit troublesome. Most of the time, I just buy takeout at Starbucks. And also, I quite like instant coffee.
不經常煮。煮咖啡其實有點麻煩。大多數時候，我就喝星巴克的外賣咖啡。而且，我也喜歡速溶咖啡。
May：
I think instant coffee is becoming more and more popular. Though its taste is not perfect, it's really cheap and convenient.
我覺得速溶咖啡變得越來越流行了。儘管它的味道可能不是很完美，但真是便宜方便。

Exactly. Nescafe is the world's favorite coffee. People love it all over the world.
沒錯。雀巢咖啡是全世界最受歡迎的咖啡。全世界的人都喜歡呢.
May：
Which country makes the best coffee in the world?
世界上哪個國家出產最好的咖啡呢?
Customer：
Many people think Brazil makes the best coffee. Brazil exports a lot of coffee. But I love Irish coffee. So it's hard to say. Just depends on your taste.
很多人覺得巴西出產最好的咖啡，巴西也出口很多的咖啡。但是我喜歡愛爾蘭咖啡。所以很難說。要看個人的口味吧。
May：
I agree. I heard in the western countries, almost everyone likes coffee. Is that true?
我同意。我聽說在西方國家，幾乎每個人都喜歡咖啡。這是真的嗎?
Customer：
Yes. No doubt about that. For us, coffee is more a living style rather than a simple drink. I heard Chinese people don't drink that much coffee.
是的。那是毫無疑問的。對我們來說，咖啡不僅僅是一種飲料，更加是一種生活方式。我聽說中國人不喝那麼多咖啡。
May：
No, we don't, especially the old people. But more and more young people fall for coffee.
是的，尤其是老一輩的人。但是現在越來越多的人喜歡上咖啡了。
Customer：
I suppose so. That's probably why there are so many wonderful coffeehouses in China now.
我猜也是。這可能就是為什麼中國現在有那麼多很棒的咖啡廳的原因吧。
