罗布：你好，海伦！圣诞快乐！
Helen: Happy Christmas!
海伦：圣诞快乐！Rob: Come in, come in!
罗布：请进，请进！Helen: Thank you.
海伦：谢谢你。Helen: Wowwwwwwwwww!
海伦：哇！Rob: So, what do you think?
罗布：你觉得怎么样？Helen: That's amazing.... so many decorations - and what a beautiful Christmas tree! You must have spent ages doing this! It's beautiful!
海伦：这真不可思议……这么多装饰，这圣诞树太漂亮了！准备这些你一定花了很长时间吧！它真漂亮！Rob: Well I do like to do Christmas with all the trimmings!
罗布：我非常喜欢用各种配饰来装点圣诞节！Helen: All the trimmings? I don't understand.
海伦：所有的饰物！我不明白。Rob: All the trimmings–it means all the extra things that traditionally come with something to make it more special.
罗布：All the trimmings的意思是和某样东西搭配的额外的东西，会使那个东西更加特别。Helen: I see. Like all these decorations?
海伦：我明白了。就像所有的这些装饰品？Rob: Yes. In my family, we have always had Christmas with all the trimmings, so we have a Christmas tree, decorations, gifts, Christmas songs, silly Christmas games and, most importantly, Christmas lunch. Now, come this way!
罗布：对，我家经常会用各种配饰来装饰圣诞节，所以我们有圣诞树、装饰品、礼物、圣诞歌曲、愚蠢的圣诞游戏，最重要的是，我们有圣诞午餐。现在，过来这边吧！Helen: Roast turkey for lunch!
海伦：午餐吃烤鸡！Rob: Now that is a roast turkey with all the trimmings! Not only is it a turkey, but we're eating it with all the things you traditionally eat with Christmas roast turkey: cranberry sauce, roast potatoes, gravy, stuffing, carrots-
罗布：是烤鸡和其他的配菜！并不是仅仅有烤鸡，还有我们通常在圣诞节会和烤鸡一起搭配吃的各种菜肴：蔓越橘酱、烤土豆、肉汁、馅料胡萝卜……Helen: Mmm, I'm very hungry now!
海伦：嗯，我现在非常饿！Rob: All the trimmings!
罗布：所有的配菜！Helen: I think I understand what 'all the trimmings' means now.
海伦：我想我现在明白这个短语的意思了。Rob: It's an expression usually used with food, especially at Christmas and for the big roast dinners that we like to eat here in Britain. I adore Sunday lunch with all the trimmings: roast meat, along with lots of vegetables and sauces and other traditional accompaniments. Mmmmm....
罗布：这个短语通常和食物一起使用，尤其是像我们英国在圣诞节吃烧烤晚餐时会使用的短语。我喜欢有各种配菜的周日午餐：有烤肉、还有许多蔬菜和酱汁，还有其他的传统配餐。嗯……Helen: Yummy!
海伦：好吃！Rob: But you can also use this expression in other situations:
罗布：不过这个短语也可以用在其他场合：Examples:
例子：When I get married, I want a perfect wedding with all the trimmings.
我希望在结婚的时候能大办一场完美的婚礼。Stay in our beach-side hotel, where you will enjoy a luxury holiday with all the trimmings.
入住我们的沙滩酒店，你可以享受到配套设施齐全的奢华假日。Rob: Anyway, enough talk! Let's eat!
罗布：不管怎样，说够多了，我们开吃吧！Helen: Delicious. Thank you for inviting me.
海伦：真好吃。谢谢你邀请我。Rob: It's a pleasure, Helen!
罗布：这是我的荣幸，海伦！Helen: I would like you to join me for the next Chinese New Year.
海伦：我希望明年中国春节的时候邀请你和我一起度过。Rob: Wow! Thank you!
罗布：哇！谢谢你！Helen: There'll be fish, dumplings, lanterns, dragons and firecrackers-all the trimmings.
海伦：到时我们会有鱼、饺子、灯笼、舞龙和鞭炮，各种活动。Rob: Well cheers to that and Happy Christmas–with all the trimmings!
