CONRAD: I really do like this dining set.
But I just don't know. I don't know if I can do a good job with it.
SALESPERSON: It really isn't hard, sir. You just have to follow the instructions.
CONRAD: What instructions?
SALESPERSON: We will give you a detailed instruction manual if you buy the table.
CONRAD: I see. But can I understand the instructions? I'm a foreigner, you know.
SALESPERSON: Don't worry about that. Your English seems very good.
And our instruction manuals are very clearly written. It's easy!
CONRAD: Could you tell me now some of the things I need to do?
SALESPERSON: Of course.
First, you must sand the furniture. You sand it to make the wood smooth.
You start with heavy-grade sandpaper. Then, you move to finer-grade sandpaper.
CONRAD: Do I have to sand every inch of the table?
SALESPERSON: The better you sand it, the better the finish will be.
CONRAD: Alright.
SALESPERSON: Then, after you sand it, you use tack cloth to wipe off any dust or sawdust.
CONRAD: Sawdust?
康瑞德：我很喜欢这个餐桌。
但是我就是不知道，我不知道可不可以做得好。
店员：先生，这真的不难，你只要照着说明来就可以。
康瑞德：什么说明？
店员：如果你买这张桌子，我们会给你详细的说明手册。
康瑞德：我懂了。但是我看得懂吗？我是外国人。
店员：别担心，你的英文似乎不错。
而且说明手册都写得很清楚，很容易的。
康瑞德：你现在可以告诉我自己动手做的部分吗？
店员：当然可以。
首先你要磨一磨家具，使木头平滑。
先用粗颗粒的砂纸磨，然后再用细颗粒的砂纸。
康瑞德：桌子的每一寸都要磨吗？
店员：你磨得越仔细，成品就越完美。
康瑞德：好的。
店员：然后磨好之后，用有黏性的布擦掉灰尘和木削。
康瑞德：木削？
