旅游業(yè)英語 Lesson 24:Checking Out 退房(2)

第二十四講: 退房

Lesson 24: Checking Out (continued)

各位聽眾朋友，歡迎您收聽“旅游業(yè)英語”。我是澳大利亞澳洲廣播電臺(tái)中文部的節(jié)目主持人馬健媛。在上一講中我們學(xué)習(xí)了如何禮貌地詢問客人誰來付帳單以及如何逐項(xiàng)為客人解釋帳單上的帳目。在這一講中，我們要學(xué)習(xí)當(dāng)帳單上出現(xiàn)錯(cuò)誤時(shí)應(yīng)該如何應(yīng)對(duì)和向客人告別時(shí)所使用的英語句型。現(xiàn)在讓我們學(xué)習(xí)新的對(duì)話內(nèi)容，請(qǐng)?zhí)貏e注意新的生詞與句型。

Jack: Leo, I have a query. This amount, under newspapers.

Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem.

Leo: You’ve been charged for the local newspaper.

Jack: But Leo, I never ordered a local paper. I can’t read Chinese you see.

Leo: You’re quite right.

Leo: I’m terribly sorry about that.

Leo: I’ll fix it right away.

Leo: There, problem fixed.

Jack: Thanks.

以上就是我們今天要學(xué)習(xí)的部份內(nèi)容，您聽懂了多少呢?好，讓我們?cè)俾犚槐殇浺簦視?huì)將每句話的內(nèi)容譯成中文。杰克: 利奧，我有個(gè)問題。請(qǐng)問這個(gè)在報(bào)紙項(xiàng)目下的款項(xiàng)是怎么回事呢?

Jack: Leo, I have a query. This amount, under newspapers.

利奧: 哦，我明白了。這是向您收取的當(dāng)?shù)貓?bào)紙的費(fèi)用。

Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem. You’ve been charged for the local

newspaper.

杰克: 但是，利奧，你知道我從來也沒有定過當(dāng)?shù)氐膱?bào)紙啊，我根本不懂中文呀。

Jack: But Leo, I never ordered a local paper. I can’t read Chinese you

see.

利奧: 您說得很對(duì)。出了這樣的錯(cuò)誤我真的很抱歉。我立刻就改正這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。

Leo: You’re quite right. I’m terribly sorry about that. I’ll fix it right

away.

利奧: 好了，改過來了。

Leo: There, problem fixed.

杰克: 謝謝你。

Jack: Thanks.

在以前的課文中我們學(xué)習(xí)過如何在餐館里向客人解釋帳單的明細(xì)帳目?，F(xiàn)在讓我們?cè)賹W(xué)習(xí)一些新的處理這種情況時(shí)會(huì)用到的句型。

Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem. You’ve been charged for the local newspaper.
在這句話中，利奧一下子就發(fā)現(xiàn)了錯(cuò)誤的原因，那就是帳單上列出了一項(xiàng)當(dāng)?shù)貓?bào)紙的費(fèi)用，可實(shí)際的情況是杰克從來沒有定過這份報(bào)紙，因?yàn)樗揪筒欢形?。在這句話中，利奧用了這樣的說法: Isee the problem, 我明白了。。。另外，利奧還說you’ve been charged for …這是向您收取的。。費(fèi)用。不知您是否還記得，在以前的課文中，當(dāng)蒙納對(duì)她的帳單產(chǎn)生疑問時(shí)，利奧曾經(jīng)使用過這樣的短語: that’s for …..這是。。。的費(fèi)用。完整的句子是That’s for the dry cleaning. 這是干洗的費(fèi)用。好現(xiàn)在讓我們跟著英語老師一起來練習(xí)這些句型。

I see the problem.

I see the problem.

You’ve been charged for the newspaper.

That’s for the newspaper.

You’ve been charged for the dry cleaning.

That’s for the dry cleaning.

現(xiàn)在讓我們一起來聽聽利奧在確認(rèn)杰克的帳單出現(xiàn)問題時(shí)是怎么說的。

利奧: 您說的很對(duì)。

Leo: You’re quite right.

利奧: 出了這樣的錯(cuò)誤我真的很抱歉。

Leo: I’m terribly sorry about that.

利奧: 我立刻就改正這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。

Leo: I’ll fix it right away.

利奧: 好了，改過來了。

Leo: There, problem fixed.

我們?cè)?jīng)在第七講中學(xué)習(xí)過sorry, 對(duì)不起，這個(gè)詞匯的用法。所以在這里我就不重復(fù)了。不過我要提醒各位的是在英語中道歉并不一定表示錯(cuò)誤的原因在你，我們說sorry 的用意更多的是在于就給客人帶來的不便表示一種歉意。請(qǐng)跟著老師練習(xí)下列句子。

You’re quite right.

I’m terribly sorry about that.

I’ll fix it right away.

There, problem fixed.

好，現(xiàn)在讓我們?cè)俾犚槐檫@部份對(duì)話的錄音。請(qǐng)?jiān)诶麏W的句子之后重復(fù)他的話。

Jack: Leo, I have a query. This amount, under newspapers.

Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem.

Leo: You’ve been charged for the local newspaper.

Jack: But Leo, I never ordered a local paper. I can’t read Chinese you see.

Leo: You’re quite right.

Leo: I’m terribly sorry about that.

Leo: I’ll fix it right away.

Leo: There, problem fixed.

Jack: Thanks.
