旅游業(yè)英語 Lesson 10:Giving directions為人指路(2)

第十課: 為人指路

Lesson 10: Giving Directions (continued)

各位聽眾朋友好。歡迎您收聽“旅游業(yè)英語”，我是澳洲廣播電臺中文部節(jié)目主持人馬健媛。在第九課中，我們學(xué)習(xí)了如何為客人指路、如何提出建議以及如何向客人解釋某一行動需要多少時間。在這一課中我們要遇到蒙納女士、她的父親杰克以及他們所乘坐的記程車司機喬。我們要重溫有關(guān)指路的句型，學(xué)習(xí)一些新的對話及詢問對方從何處來之類的句型。另外，我們還要學(xué)習(xí)如何向客人表達他應(yīng)付款項的數(shù)額。在我們繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)“為人指路”的對話之前，先讓我們一起來復(fù)習(xí)一下這段對話的第一部份。

Leo: Good morning, Ms White, Mr Webber.

Jack: Good morning, Leo.

Mona: Hi Leo. Is there a major shopping centre nearby?

Leo: The Starlight Shopping Centre has over a hundred shops. I’m sure you’ll find what you want there.

Mona: And how do we get there?

Leo: Well, turn right outside the hotel, and left at the traffic lights. Go straight up the street, cross at the next set of lights and turn right at the pink tower…

Mona: Oh dear, that’s too hard to remember.

Leo: Well then, what about a taxi? You can get one just outside the hotel.

Jack: I don’t mind walking, Mona… We turn right outside the hotel,Leo?

Leo: Yes, that’s right. Then left at the traffic lights.

Jack: Turn left?

Leo: That’s right. Then walk straight up the street (and …)

Mona: How long does it take to walk there?

Leo: It takes about 10 minutes.

Mona: Then let’s get a cab, Dad. Thanks anyway, Leo.

Leo: My pleasure.

好，我們繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)第十課“為人指路”，請聽錄音及中文翻譯

喬: 請問去哪里?

Joe: Where to?

蒙納: 你講英語嗎?

Mona: Do you speak English?

喬: 我只講一點點。

Joe: Just a little.

蒙納: 請去星光購物中心，它在交通燈的左邊。

Mona: Starlight Shopping Centre please. It’s left at the traffic lights.

喬: 不用擔(dān)心，我認識路的。你們是哪個國家來的?

Joe: Don’t worry, I know the way. Where do you come from?

杰克: 澳大利亞。

Jack: Australia.

喬: 噢。。。你們在本地停留多久呢?

Joe: Aaah! How long are you here for?

杰克: 三個星期。

Jack: Three weeks.

喬: 三個星期都留在城里嗎?

Joe: Three weeks in the city?

杰克: 不，我們星期六就去北方。

Jack: No, we’re going north on Saturday.

請注意聽約瑟夫是如何詢問他的乘客要去什么地方的

Joe: Where to?

Where to? 請問去哪里?這是一種在英語里已經(jīng)被廣泛接受了的短句形式，完整的句型應(yīng)該是Where are you going to? 請聽老師的示范。

Where to?

Page 3 of 8

Where to?

當我們想要問對方來自什么地方或者國家時，我們可以使用喬說的下面這個句型。他是這樣說的:

你們是哪個國家來的?

Joe: Where do you come from?

這個句型的簡略說法是: Where are you from? 請跟著老師一起練習(xí)。

Where do you come from?

Where do you come from?

Where are you from?

Where are you from?

對話過程中，記程車司機喬希望了解他的乘客要在本地停留多久?

喬: 你們在本地停留多久呢?

Joe: How long are you here for?

杰克: 三個星期。

Jack: Three weeks.

同樣的問題，喬還可以這樣提問: How long are you staying?
你們在本地停留多久呢?請聽老師的示范并跟著重復(fù)。

How long are you here for?

How long are you here for?

How long are you staying?

How long are you staying?

請完整地聽一遍這部份對話，并請在記程車司機喬的講話之后跟著重復(fù)。

Joe: Where to?

Mona: Do you speak English?

Joe: Just a little.

Mona: Starlight Shopping Centre, please. It’s left at the traffic lights.

Joe: Don’t worry,…

Joe: I know the way.

Joe: Where do you come from?

Jack: Australia.

Joe: How long are you here for?

Jack: Three weeks.

Joe: Three weeks in the city?

Jack: No, we’re going north on Saturday.

各位聽眾朋友，您現(xiàn)在收聽的是澳洲廣播電臺為您制作的“旅游英語節(jié)目”。

第十課: 為人指路

Lesson 10: Giving Directions

Joe: Well, here we are. The Starlight Centre.

Mona: That was quick! I’ll get this, Dad.

Joe: That’ll be $6.50.

Joe: The main entrance is over there, on the right.

Jack: What’s your name, driver?

Joe: Joe.

Jack: Nice to meet you, Joe.

Joe: Nice to meet you, too.

Mona: Keep the change, Joe.

Joe: Thanks!

Jack: Bye.

Joe: Bye. Hope you enjoy your stay!

請再聽一遍對話的內(nèi)容及中文翻譯

喬: 我們到了。這里就是星光購物中心。

Joe: Well, here we are. The Starlight Centre.

蒙納: 真快呀!我來付車錢吧，爸爸。

喬: 謝謝。

Joe: Thanks!

杰克: 再見。

Jack: Bye.

喬: 再見，希望您在此地旅行愉快。

Joe: Bye. Hope you enjoy your stay!

您注意到了嗎?杰克在即將下車時詢問了記程車司機的姓名，也許您會感到有些奇怪，他們之間也許以后再也不會見面了，杰克為什么要打聽司機的名字呢?在西方的文化中，有些人喜歡稱呼他人的名字，而不是只簡單地用“you”“你”這個字，或者他人的職務(wù)名稱來稱呼他人?，F(xiàn)在就請您注意聽一下我們這段對話中的人物在初次相遇后分別時是怎么說的吧。

杰克: 很高興認識您，喬。

Jack: Nice to meet you, Joe.

喬: 我也很高興認識您。

Joe: Nice to meet you, too.

請注意聽并跟著重復(fù)下列句子。

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

另外，請注意記程車司機喬是如何向乘客收取車資的。

喬: 一共是六塊五。

Joe: That’ll be $6.50.

Page 6 of 8

That’ll be 是that will be 的簡略說法。請注意聽，并跟著重

復(fù)。

That’ll be six dollars fifty.

That’ll be ten dollars.

That’ll be fifty dollars, thanks.

現(xiàn)在讓我們再一起聽一遍剛才的這段對話，請在喬的講話之后重復(fù)他的句子。

Joe: Well, here we are.
