實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：New York Tips 紐約旅行小貼士

Warren: Hey, Antoinette, why don't you tell me about growing up in New York?

沃倫：嘿，安托萬內(nèi)特，和我談?wù)勀阍诩~約的成長經(jīng)歷吧。

Antoinette: New York. Warren, why do you want to know about that? Well, growing up in New York was lots of fun. I loved growing up in New York. I couldn't imagine growing up anywhere else.

安托萬內(nèi)特：紐約。沃倫，你為什么想知道這個呢?在紐約成長很有趣。我喜歡在紐約長大。我無法想象在其他地方成長會怎樣。

Warren: Really?

沃倫：真的嗎?

Antoinette: Yeah, really. The fun things I did – well, lots of movies to go see but I guess you can see movies anywhere in the US. Anywhere in the world for that matter. I enjoyed being able to go to Lincoln Center for concerts or Carnegie Hall and even play in Carnegie Hall. So I did play in Carnegie Hall.

安托萬內(nèi)特：對，真的。我做了很多有趣的事情，我去電影院看了很多電影，不過我想美國任何地方都可以看電影。就這點而言，世界任何地方都可以辦到。我喜歡去林肯中心和卡內(nèi)基音樂廳看演出，我甚至還在卡內(nèi)基音樂廳表演過。我真的在卡內(nèi)基音樂廳表演過。

Warren: Wow. Well, that's exciting.

沃倫：哇哦。那真人興奮。

Antoinette: Have you ever been to New York?

安托萬內(nèi)特：你去過紐約嗎?

Warren: I have.

沃倫：去過。

Antoinette: You have.

安托萬內(nèi)特：你去過。

Warren: Yeah. I've been there twice.

沃倫：對，我去過紐約兩次。

Antoinette: Okay. What did you do when you were there?

安托萬內(nèi)特：好。你去紐約哪些地方游玩了?

Warren: The first time, I was with my mother. I was 12 years old. And we went to Central Park and we saw some museums around Central Park.

沃倫：我第一次去紐約是和我媽媽一起去的。當時我12歲。我們?nèi)チ思~約中央公園，我看到紐約中央公園周邊有一些博物館。

Antoinette: You didn't go into the museums?

安托萬內(nèi)特：你沒進博物館嗎?

Warren: Yes, we did go into the museums.

沃倫：進了，我們?nèi)ゲ┪镳^參觀了。

Antoinette: Oh, okay. Yeah. That's my park, Central Park. How did you find my park? Did you like my park?

安托萬內(nèi)特：哦，好。紐約中央公園是我的公園。你是怎么發(fā)現(xiàn)我的公園的?你喜歡我的公園嗎?

Warren: It was great. I was surprised how big it was.

沃倫：那里非常棒。那里的規(guī)模讓我非常吃驚。

Antoinette: It is a big park. That's what I like about it. You can get lost in the park and almost forget that you're in a city.

安托萬內(nèi)特：那的確是一座大公園。所以我非常喜歡它。在紐約中央公園可能會迷路，幾乎會忘掉自己身處城市之中。

Warren: Yeah. That's what I found really neat about it is sometimes I felt like I was in the countryside. But then I would see large buildings.

沃倫：是的。我發(fā)現(xiàn)那里非常整潔，有時我感覺我好像在鄉(xiāng)村。不過我能看到大型建筑。

Antoinette: Yes. Yeah, I enjoy that, too. Did you know that you could ride horses in the park?

安托萬內(nèi)特：對，沒錯。我也很喜歡這點。你知道可以在紐約中央公園騎馬嗎?

Warren: No, I didn't.

沃倫：我不知道。

Antoinette: Did you know about the skating rink in the park?

安托萬內(nèi)特：你知道紐約中央公園里有滑冰場嗎?

Warren: Yes. I've seen the skating rink on TV.

沃倫：我知道，我在電視上看到過那個滑冰場。

Antoinette: Okay. What time of year did you go? What season was it?

安托萬內(nèi)特：好。你是什么時候去的?什么季節(jié)?

Warren: I've been there in the summer and in fall but not winter.

沃倫：我在夏天和秋天去過紐約中央公園，不過沒在冬天去過。

Antoinette: It's beautiful in any season, I think. I love Central Park.

安托萬內(nèi)特：無論什么季節(jié)，那里都很漂亮。我愛紐約中央公園。

Warren: Yeah, me too. It was very – it was a memorable experience.

沃倫：我也是。那真的是一次令人難忘的經(jīng)歷。

Antoinette: I'm glad to hear that. What other places did you go to?

安托萬內(nèi)特：我很高興聽到你這么說。你還去哪些地方游玩了?

Warren: Well, when I was older, I went with my friend and we went on top of the Empire State Building.

沃倫：我長大以后，又和朋友去了紐約，我們登上了帝國大廈頂樓。

Antoinette: Okay. I'm not sure if they allow you to go up there now.

安托萬內(nèi)特：好。我不確定現(xiàn)在還讓不讓上到頂樓了。

Warren: That was around 2004 that we went.

沃倫：我們是2004年去的。

Antoinette: Okay. Were you able to look over the edge?

安托萬內(nèi)特：好。你能從頂樓往下看嗎?

Warren: I don't know if I was looking over the edge. I think it's inside but you're at the top.

沃倫：我不確定我有沒有往下看。我記得當時我們在里面，不過那的確是頂層。

Antoinette: Okay. So yeah, things have changed a bit since I was a little girl.

安托萬內(nèi)特：好。我小的時候去過，看來那里變了。

Warren: Did it use to be outside that you could go?

沃倫：之前是能到外面去嗎?

Antoinette: You could go outside. There were these binoculars or I don't know what they're called but you put a little change in and you could see the city.

安托萬內(nèi)特：可以去外面。外面有雙筒望遠鏡，我不確定是不是這樣叫，放些零錢進去，你就可以欣賞紐約的景色。

Warren: Yeah. They had those as well. Yeah.

沃倫：嗯。我也看到了那些望遠鏡。

Antoinette: Okay.

安托萬內(nèi)特：好。

Warren: Yeah. We could see Central Park and you could even see the Statue of Liberty from there.

沃倫：嗯。用望遠鏡可以看到紐約中央公園，甚至還能看到自由女神像。

Antoinette: Oh well, I've been there.

安托萬內(nèi)特：嗯，我去過那里。

Warren: Yeah. Actually, I never got to go. Both times I went to New York, we wanted to go to the Statue of Liberty but we didn't have enough time.

沃倫：嗯，實際上，兩次我都沒能去自由女神像。我去了紐約兩次，每次我們都想去看看自由女神像，可是我們的時間不夠。

Antoinette: Oh well, you should plan another trip.

安托萬內(nèi)特：哦，你應(yīng)該再去一次紐約。

Warren: I'd like to, yeah. Sounds great.

沃倫：我很想去。聽起來太棒了。
