國中英語基測出現過 dancer 的考題。

Cecilia: Eddie’s having a tasting party this Saturday.

Gloria: No!

Cecilia: And we’re both invited.

Gloria: No! I told you I’d never go to any of his tasting parties again !

Cecilia: He said he wanted to share his newest cakes with his dearest friends.

Gloria: If he sees us as his dearest friends, he should stop having tasting parties!

Cecilia: Well, looks like baking really brings joy to his life.

Gloria: But it takes joy away from mine! Last time I was in bed for three days after his party.

Cecilia: If you hate it so much, you can just tell him.

Gloria: Why do I always have to be the bad person? Remember when I woke him up from his dream of making clothes? There was a lot of crying, and he wouldn’t talk to me for a month. You do it this time.

Cecilia: I can’t. How am I going to face him in our dancing classes if I tell him?

Gloria: So we still have to lie at his party again?

Cecilia: I’m afraid so.
