1-- So Heidi, I was talking with my friend and he actually lives in Mongolia now and he says it’s a great place. He recommended that I go there. So if I go to Mongolia, what season is the best season to go?
2-- Fall.
1-- In the fall?
2-- Yes, because in the fall we have a celebration called Naadam and that’s the best time to go. And you get to see horse racing and archery and wrestling and so many tourist come to Mongolia at that time.
1-- Okay, now in your city, what is one food I should definitely try?
2-- Well I would say khuushuur.
1-- Wow. khuushuur?
2-- Yes. Everyone loves it. And for me, I love it too. It looks like dumpling but fried and it’s more bigger and inside is meat.
1-- So it’s like a dumpling and inside it’s meat.
2-- Yes.
1-- So outside, the dumpling part, it is like bread or is it like...
2-- It’s a flour, yeah.
1-- Like a flour-based...
2-- Yes
1-- Okay, now Mongolia is quite famous for meat, correct? So, what is probably the most popular meat?
2-- Beef.
1-- Beef?
2-- Yes.
1-- So not chicken, not fish...?
2-- We don’t really eat chicken and we don’t eat fish. Well, we have a river fish. It’s like really delicious but then we don’t have sea so seafood is not popular at all.
1-- So people mainly eat beef.
2-- Yes.
1-- So when I’m there in your country, what place should I go to. Like, what should I see?
2-- Probably, [it’s] better to go to the countryside because if you go to Ulan Bator it’s just the same as other cities -- other cities around the world. But the countryside is a whole different world. And the countryside is where you can see the Mongolian tent and horses, like, Nomadic places like where people live in the outside. That’s the best place for foreigners to go.
1-- Is there anything I should buy? Like, what would be a good souvenir or gift from your country?
2-- Well, in the department stores they have sections for Mongolian traditional gifts and stuff so probably you can get the tent -- a small tent.
1-- A little tent?
2-- Yeah, and then if you open the door you can actually see all the furniture is inside it. So it’s kind of interesting.
1-- Wow, like a little doll house?
2-- Yes.
1-- Okay, wow, it sounds good. I hope to go.

1--Heidi,我和我一個住在蒙古的朋友聊過天,他說蒙古是個很棒的地方,他推薦我去那里度假。如果我去蒙古度假,哪個季節(jié)是最好的呢?
2--秋季。
1--在秋天?
2--是的,秋季我們有個那達(dá)慕節(jié),那是觀看賽馬,射箭和摔跤的最好時候,很多游客來蒙古參觀呢。
1--好的,在你的城市,我應(yīng)該嘗試哪種小吃呢?
2-- 羊肉餡餅吧。
1--哇,羊肉餡餅?
2--是的,大家都喜歡吃,包括我。它看起來像餃子,但是煎的,個兒更大,里面包著肉。
1--恩,就是包著肉的餃子咯。
2-- 是的。
1-- 外面的餃子部分像面包,或者像...
2--是一種面粉。
1--像一種面粉...
2-- 是的。
1--恩,蒙古的非常有名,對吧?那什么肉最受歡迎呢?
2--牛肉。
1--牛肉?
2--是的。
1-- 不是雞肉,也不是魚...?
2--我們不吃雞肉和魚肉。我們的魚產(chǎn)自河里,很美味。我們沒有海,因此海鮮一點也不受歡迎。
1--因此人們只吃牛肉。
2-- 是的。
1--我去你們國家應(yīng)該去哪里看看呢?
2--也許最好去鄉(xiāng)村走走。烏蘭巴托和世界上其他的城市一樣沒什么好看的,但是鄉(xiāng)村截然不同。在鄉(xiāng)村,你可以看到蒙古包和馬。人們居住在可以放牧的地方。對外國來說,那是最佳參觀之地。
1--有什么東西我應(yīng)該買的嗎?比如說你們多家的紀(jì)念品或者禮物?
2--恩,在商店里有蒙古傳統(tǒng)禮品專賣店,也許你可以買個帳篷,小帳篷。
1--小帳篷?
2--是的,打開門你可以里面所有的家具,很有趣吧。
1--哇,像一個布娃娃房子?
2--是的。
1--哇,太棒了,我想去了。
