FF：Jessica, 今晚跟我去吃饭怎么样？
Jessica: 好啊，吃什么？
FF: 吃正宗的湖南菜，怎么样？Hey. 　　　　　1　　　　　
Jessica: Hmm. 　　　　　2　　　　　
FF: Authentic? 什么意思？
Jessica: Authentic is spelled a-u-t-h-e-n-t-i-c, authentic的意思是“真实的”，“地道的”。 For example, authentic Chinese food 就是地道的中餐。
FF: 哦！那authentic American English就是“地道美语”，对不对？
Jessica: 没错。对了。　　　　　3　　　　　
FF: 因为这是一个特别会吃的朋友推荐的。他可是个老饕，或者叫食客，专门能发现一些不起眼，但是特地道的餐馆。对了，这种食客在美语里要怎么说呢？
Jessica: We call those people foodies, f-o-o-d-i-e. 　　　　　4　　　　　
FF: 　　　　　5　　　　　
Jessica: Wow! 　　　　　6　　　　　
FF: Pig out?
Jessica: 　　　　　7　　　　　
FF: 哦，to pig out就是甩开腮帮子狂吃。 　　　　　8　　　　　
Jessica: Watch your waistline, Fangfang!
FF: 哈哈，I will. 不过话说那天我和这个朋友去吃饭，本来打算pig out, 可是我这个人啊，总是眼大肚子小，没吃多少就饱了，真不争气！眼大肚子小你懂吗？
Jessica: 　　　　　9　　　　　
FF: 哈哈! No. “眼大肚子小”意思是： 　　　　　10　　　　　
Jessica: I see. There's a similar expression in English: 　　　　　11　　　　　
FF: 原来"眼大肚子小"是 eyes are bigger than stomach. 　　　　　12　　　　　
Jessica: 哈哈，别光想着吃，还是先说说，今天都学了什么。
FF: 好，今天我们学了：
表示地道，用authentic;
会吃的食客，老饕，是foodie;
大吃大喝是to pig out;
“眼大肚子小”则是eyes are bigger than stomach.
