W: It’s a lovely day, isn’t it?
M: Yes, nice and sunny, with a fresh breeze blowing.
W: I hope the weather stays this way.
M: I think it will. At least the weather forecast says so, anyway.
W: That’s good.(9)It means we’ll be able to have picnic again. That’s something to look forward to.
M:(9)How about taking a trip to the West Hill this Saturday?
W: That’s great! Shall we have a picnic on the top of the hill? You like picnics very much, don’t you?
M: Yes, you know me very well. What should we take there? Should we take some fruit?
W: Yes, of course. I will take my favorite fruit—strawberries! Don’t you think it is very delicious?
M: Yes, but I think hamburgers are more delicious. Let’s take some drinks with us, too. What drinks do you like?
W:(10)I always drink water. I think it is supposed to be the healthiest drink. And I am afraid we must take a camera there. You know, it is very beautiful on the hill at this time of year.
M: That sounds exciting. I like to take photos very much and I will be the best photographer for you.(11)Let me make thorough preparations in case that we run out of film. When and where shall we meet?
W: Let’s meet at my home. I can ask my father to take us there in his car.
M: OK. Let’s meet at 9:00 then.
W: That’s too late for a hike!
M: But I’m afraid I can’t get up so early. I always like to stay in bed till late in the morning.
