话匣子英语:装扮圣诞树
Maura: This year I was in a store a couple days before Halloween, and I actually saw the staff putting out the Christmas decorations.
Harp: It’s crazy. Like I said, it’s coming earlier and earlier every year.
Maura: Yup. They do come out pretty early. But you know, there’s a lot to do beforehand, so maybe we need to see all of the Christmas stuff early.
Harp: Yeah. You’re probably right. There is quite a bit of work that is involved with decorating.
Maura: But you know, what I started thinking when I saw all of these decorations was that you’d think that after a year or two, people would have all of the Christmas decorations that they need, and then they’re kind of set for at least 5 or 10 years. But somehow I guess there are some people who need to buy new decorations every year.
Harp: Yup. For me, I’m pretty much set. I use the same Christmas decorations every year. But I do have some friends who do a different theme. So one year they’ll do all their decorations in red, or the next year it’ll be silver and blue. So those are the people buying the decorations every year.
Maura: Hmm… Yeah. Come to think of it, I do remember when my mother decided that she wanted to change her Christmas décor, and so she went out and bought ornaments that were colour coordinated. And before, growing up, they were just random ornaments that we liked.
Harp: Did you have a lot of decorations that you had made at school over the years?
