我爱约会 Getting a date
William: Hey, baby, are you doing anything tonight?
Woman: It depends.
William: On what?
Woman: On whether my boyfriend takes me out or not! ( A huge muscular man threatens to punch him out)
Are you doing anything tonight? 今晚你有什么事吗？如果你有幸在酒吧遇到一个令你心动的女孩子，这句话就可以派上大用场了。你需要做的就是走上前和她套近乎，对她说: You look beautiful tonight. 或者谈些别的东西：Do you like this place? 然后找准机会对她说Are you doing anything tonight?需要特别指出的是在说这句话的时候，口气一定要温柔，态度一定要诚恳，这样才能打动女孩子的芳心。不信去试试吧。

Dr. Weird: Hey sweetie pie, are you doing anything tonight?
Woman: No, I don’t have any plans.
Dr. Weird: If you’re not busy tonight, would you like to go out with me?
Woman: Sure, where will you take me?
如果那个女孩子对你也有好感，她可能会告诉你：I don’t have any plans yet.我今晚还没有计划。嗯，真是个聪明的女孩，她在委婉地暗示你也许可以接受你的邀请。那么这个时候，你就要不失时机地对她说：If you’re not busy tonight, would you like to go dancing with me? 如果你今晚不忙地话，愿意和我一起去跳舞吗？如果你语气适当，又赶上女孩子心情不错，你就有可能成功哦！！

Dr. Weird: Hey, hot stuff, are you hitched?
Hot stuff是俚语，是对漂亮女士的称呼。
Are you hitched? 也是俚语，意思相当于：你有男朋友吗？
Woman: No, not at the moment.
Dr. Weird: Really? Cool! Can we get together and go out sometime?
Woman: Only if you promise not to pull out your pet snake.
Can we get together and go out sometime? 不论是约女孩子出来，还是想和好友聚聚，你都可以用这句话来提出你地建议。那么如果对方接受你地建议地话，剩下的就是享受和恋人在一起的美妙时光 或者是朋友们带来的亲密无间的欢乐气氛了！但对女孩子们来说，如果你不想接受这个邀请，你可以直接说：No, thanks. 你也可以说得更委婉些：Sorry. I’ve got plans.如果你觉得对方也不错，但是不巧自己今天没时间的话，你可以这么说：Maybe some other time! 改天怎么样？

Culture note
How do you know who to ask on a date? I mean, in the olden days, it was pretty easy. If a man liked a woman, there were specific things he could do to show interest in her and specific things she could do to show interest in him. Like in some cultures, the man would go to her home and sing a beautiful song. And if she wanted to go on a date, she would sing back to him. Or in other cultures, the man would cut an animal, and give it to her as a present. And if she accepted it, then she wanted to go out. But nowadays, it’s more complicated. You have to listen to what people say, and you have to watch what they do. In order to decide, if you think you’re interesting or boring, some of the things that I have learned in my many many years of experience in dating are things lie: One: smile. Does she smile? Does she laugh? That’s always a good sign. Number two: her eyes. Is she looking at you? Is she looking at someone else? If she’s giving you a soft caring look, then that’s always very very very good to know. And the third thing, also very important, is, are you having fun, are you agreeing, because if you cannot have fun before a date, then you will never ever have fun when you actually go on a date. You got that?
