You’ve met a great guy or girl, and you want to ask them on a date. But where do you take them? The first date is super important, so you need to pick the right activity and location. It should be casual, but not too casual! You don’t want your date to think you don’t care. Most importantly, a first date should allow the two people to chat and get to know each other, which is why so many first dates are usually having coffee together, or drinks at a bar.

In today’s lesson, our couple has finished at the exhibition, and is now going to the restaurant. If you do decide to have dinner together, be careful which kind of restaurant you choose. If you go to an incredibly fancy or expensive restaurant for the first time, then your date might come to expect that every time. On the other hand, if you choose McDonald’s, then they might see you as cheap. So choose a casual restaurant with prices in the middle range.

If you decide to take your date to the museum, make sure you do your homework. It can be a great opportunity to show him or her that you are really smart and cultured. If you’re not prepared, however, it could be really boring and you could look stupid.

One place you really shouldn’t go for a first date is the movie theater. Watching a movie doesn’t allow you to chat with your date, so you should save it for the 3rd or 4th time you go out together.

你遇到了一個不錯的小夥子或者姑娘，你想跟他們去約會。但是應該去哪呢？第一次約會非常重要，是以你需要選擇正确的地點和活動。應該随意一些，但不能太随意！你可不想你的對象覺得你并不重視。最重要的是，第一次約會應該能讓二人聊天，了解彼此，是以很多人第一次約會一般是一起喝咖啡，或者在酒吧喝酒。

今天這節課，這一對是在展覽廳結束的，現在正在去飯店。如果你決定一起吃飯，要小心選擇了哪種飯店。如果你第一次就去了一家非常高檔昂貴的餐廳，那麼對方可能每次都會期待來這種地方。另一方面，如果你選擇吃麥當勞，那麼人家可能會覺得你太小氣。随意選一家休閑一點的餐廳，價格适中。

如果你決定帶約會對象去博物館，確定要做足功課。這是一個向對方展示你的聰慧和學識的機會。如果你沒做好準備，那就可能會很無聊，讓你看起來很蠢。第一次約會真的不該去電影院。看電影不能讓你們聊天，是以可以等到第三或者第四次。
