Jose: Ecuador is a country where you can experience, they say, all seasons in one day. You have so many microclimates because you have the Andes ranges, you have the coast and then you have two ranges, mountains, it's got actually, it's called the avenue volcanoes. It's got key mountains. It's very beautiful. You have these subtropical valleys and then you have, you go to the amazon basin. You have the jungle. So you have the jungle from the coast, the jungle also going to the Amazon, and you have this beautiful area in the Andes, so it's very, very nice.

何塞：厄瓜多爾是一個(gè)你可以在一天內(nèi)體驗(yàn)所有季節(jié)的國家。你可以體驗(yàn)到許多微型氣候，因?yàn)槟抢镉邪驳谒股矫}，有海岸線，還有其他兩座山脈，還有名為火山路的地方。那是個(gè)重點(diǎn)山區(qū)。非常漂亮。那里有位于亞熱帶的山谷，有亞馬遜盆地和叢林。叢林與海岸線相連，叢林也和亞馬遜盆地相連，安第斯山脈是個(gè)非常漂亮的地方，非常非常棒。

Todd: Oh, I want to go!

托德：哦，我想去看看!

何塞：請(qǐng)來玩吧!

Todd: OK, when is the best time of year to Ecuador?

托德：好的，一年中去厄瓜多爾旅游的最佳時(shí)間是什么時(shí)候?

何塞：就像我說過那里有微型氣候，這意味著取決于你要去的地方。你要是去加拉帕戈斯群島的話，那11月到4月比較合適。

Todd: I don't want to go there now because you scared me because you said about the people going there.

托德：我現(xiàn)在不想去那里，因?yàn)楸荒銍樀搅?，你說過去那里的事情。

Jose: Yeah, yes! But it's a very beautiful place. I mean if you go just like tourist, you're going to, it's fantastic, it's a unique place. You can actually swim with the sea lions and they are chomping next to you, very beautiful. But I can not separate nature and from the people, so that is my problem. I think Ecuador is a very interesting place to be.

何塞：對(duì)，沒錯(cuò)!但是那是個(gè)非常漂亮的地方。我是說，如果你只是作為游客去那里的話，那非常棒，那是個(gè)很特別的地方。你可以和海獅一起游泳，它們就在你旁邊，非常漂亮。當(dāng)然我不能把自然和人類分開，所以這是我的問題。我認(rèn)為厄瓜多爾是一個(gè)非常有意思的地方。

Todd: Maybe!

托德：也許吧!
