第十三課: 導游
Lesson 13: The Tour Guide
各位朋友好,歡迎您收聽《旅游英語》第十三課,我是澳大利亞澳洲廣播電臺的節(jié)目主持人馬健媛。這套共二十六課的教材目的在于幫助您更好地與講英語的顧客溝通交流。教材的編寫方式為每一段對話集中于旅游業(yè)中的一個方面。如果您一開始無法聽懂對話的全部內(nèi)容,請您不要著急。因為我們會在隨后的課程中不斷地反復練習這些對話,而在每段對話的課程結束之前,我們都會為您重播對話的完整內(nèi)容。屆時您就會驚喜地發(fā)現(xiàn)自己學會了很多新的內(nèi)容。
第十三課: 導游
Lesson 13: The Tour Guide
在這一課中您可以進一步擴展我們曾經(jīng)學過的一些句型,如“ Can I help you?”有什么可以為您效勞的嗎? 以及如何向客人做出建議等,同時我們還要學習如何比較委婉地提出自己的見解。這段新對話的情景是蒙納女士和她的父親懷特先生想要找一個導游,所以他們就請酒店的服務員利奧提出一些建議?,F(xiàn)在就讓我們一起來聽聽這段對話的第一部份。
Leo: Ms White, Mr Webber. How can I help you this afternoon?
Jack: Hi Leo. We’re after a tour guide.
Mona: Yes, Leo. We want to make the most of our last day. Can you recommend a good tour guide?
Leo: I can recommend Five Star Tours. They’re very popular.
Mona: We don’t want a group though, Leo. We want a private tour guide.

Leo: Well, there’s someone I know of. He’s the best in the business.
You’ll need him tomorrow?
Mona: Yes.
Leo: I’ll see if he’s available.
Leo: Excuse me for just a minute.
讓我們再聽一遍這段對話以及中文翻譯
利奧: 懷特女士,偉博先生,今天下午有什么我可以為您效勞的嗎?
Leo: Ms White, Mr Webber. How can I help you this afternoon?
杰克: 利奧,你好。我們想找一名導游。
Jack: Hi Leo. We’re after a tour guide.
蒙納: 是呀,利奧。我們想好好地利用我們在此地停留的最后一天。你可以推薦一名優(yōu)秀的導游嗎?
Mona: Yes, Leo. We want to make the most of our last day. Can you
recommend a good tour guide?
利奧: 我可以向您推薦五星級旅行團行程。它們很受歡迎。
Leo: I can recommend Five Star Tours. They’re very popular.
蒙納: 不過,利奧,我們不想加入旅行團。我們想找一名私人導游。
Mona: We don’t want a group though, Leo. We want a private tour
guide.
利奧: 哦,是這樣。我認識一個人,他是這個行業(yè)中的佼佼者。您是說想明天雇用他嗎?
Leo: Well, there’s someone I know of. He’s the best in the business.
You’ll need him tomorrow?
蒙納: 是的。
Mona: Yes.
利奧: 讓我看看他明天是否有時間。請您等一下。
Leo: I’ll see if he’s available. Excuse me for just a minute.
請注意利奧在這段對話中是如何與客人打招呼的。

利奧: 懷特女士,偉博先生,今天下午有什么我可以為您效勞的嗎?
Leo: Ms White, Mr Webber. How can I help you this afternoon?
在以前的對話中我們學習了Can I help you? 這句話,意思是:我能為您作些什么嗎?有什么可以效勞的嗎?在這段對話中,利奧知道當懷特女士和偉博先生走向他時是要向他求助,所以利奧就說How can I help you? 而且由于對話發(fā)生的時間是下午,因此利奧在句子的末尾又加上了this afternoon 這個時間狀語。請跟著老師一起練習這句話。
How can I help you?
How can I help you?
How can I help you today?
How can I help you this morning?
How can I help you this afternoon?
How can I help you this evening?
現(xiàn)在讓我們來聽聽利奧是如何向客人推薦旅行團及導游的吧。
利奧: 我可以向您推薦五星級旅行團行程。
Leo: I can recommend Five Star Tours.
利奧: 它們很受歡迎。
Leo: They’re very popular.
利奧: 他是這個行業(yè)中的佼佼者。
Leo: He’s the best in the business.
請跟著老師重復下列句子。
I can recommend.
I can recommend Five Star Tours.
They’re very popular.
He’s the best in the business.
接下來讓我們聽聽利奧在請客人稍等一下時是怎么說的
利奧: 請您等一下。
Leo: Excuse me for just a minute.

請再聽一遍并跟著重復
Excuse me for just a minute.

我們再聽一遍這段對話的前半部份,請重復利奧的句子。

各位朋友,您現(xiàn)在收聽的是澳大利亞澳洲廣播電臺為您編播制作的“旅游業(yè)英語”節(jié)目。
第十三課: 導游

請聽錄音
利奧: 如果你們愿意的話,他今天就可以來見你們。
Leo: He can meet you today if you like.
If you like…如果你們愿意的話。這是一個非常有用的短語,如果你在提出建議時使用這個短語,聽起來語氣就會比較客氣與委婉。
請注意聽并跟著重復。
He can meet you today if you like.
If you like, he can meet you today.
You can take a cab if you like.
If you like, you can take a cab.
今天我們要學習的另外一個內(nèi)容就是如何用英語表達時間。您注意到了嗎,利奧在對話中表達時間時說three o’clock 三點鐘。其實他還可以簡單地說three,比如I‘ll see you at three, 我三點鐘時和你會面。現(xiàn)在我們跟著老師一起來練習一些英語中表達時間的常用說法。請注意聽不同的英語表示方法,并在每一句英語錄音后跟著重復。我三點鐘和你會面。
I’ll see you at three o’clock.
我三點鐘和你會面。
I’ll see you at three.
我三點三十分時和你會面。
I’ll see you at three-thirty.
我三點半時和你會面。
I’ll see you at half past three
我三點十五分時和你會面。
I’ll see you at three fifteen.
我三點一刻時和你會面。
I’ll see you at a quarter past three
我兩點四十五分時和你會面。
I’ll see you at a quarter to three.
