　　At an bike shop

　　Dan: I want to buy a new bicycle pump.

　　Boss: They're over there. Do you want some cow's tongue?

　　Dan: Well, I usually have a cast iron stomach, but I think I'll pass.

　　Boss: No, they're not real tongue; they're cookies. See?

　　Dan: Oh, another of those local products?

　　Boss: Yes. We have flattened duck, too.

　　Dan: That's a duck? It looks like a Frisbee.

　　Boss: Where are you guys riding?

　　Dan: To Hualien County. Can you suggest a good road?

　　在脚踏车行

　　阿丹：我想要买一个新的脚踏车打气筒。

　　老板：货在那儿。要不要吃些牛舌饼?

　　阿丹：嗯，通常我的胃就像铁打的一样。不过，我想还是算了。

　　老板：不，那不是真的舌头。只是饼干， 看吧!

　　阿丹：喔，又是一项土产?

　　老板：是的。我们还有鸭赏。

　　阿丹：那是鸭子?看起来好像飞盘。

　　老板：你们一群人要骑去哪里?

　　阿丹：骑到花莲。你可不可以建议一条好的路线?

　　重点解说：

　　★ cow's tongue 牛舌，这里是指宜兰名产‘牛舌饼’;flattened duck 则是宜兰名产‘鸭赏’

　　★ cast iron (a.) 强壮的。cast iron stomach就是‘铁胃’，指不论吃什么都没事的胃

　　★ I'll pass. 我放弃。用来婉拒对方的邀约

　　★ local product 地方特产

　　★ Frisbee (n.) 飞盘

　　★ suggest (v.) 建议
