Today I'm going to talk about tents.
今天我想就帳篷進行討論。
Camping is still one of the cheapest ways of having a holiday.
露營仍然是最便宜的度假方式之一。
And each year, over three million people take camping vacations, either here in Britain or abroad, mostly on the Continent.
無論是在英國還是在國外，每年有三百多萬人露營度假。
Obviously, camping can't be as comfortable as living in a permanent house, but modern tents can be very comfortable indeed, with windows, bedrooms, kitchens and sitting rooms.
顯然，露營不像住在常住房屋里一樣舒適，但是現代帳篷配有窗戶、臥室、廚房、客廳，其實已經很舒適了。
The most popular tent sold in Britain is the frame tent with two bedrooms and sleeping accommodation for four people.
在英國，賣得最火的是配有寢具的四人用雙臥帳篷。
There is usually an outer tent of water-proofed fabric and a lighter inner tent or tents with a built-in groundsheet.
通常會有一個防水面料的外圍帳篷，里面有一個輕便的內置帳篷或是一個帶有防潮布的帳篷
The outer tent fits over the frame work, this is made of metal poles which are fitted together.
外圍帳篷安置在帳篷的骨架上，它由金屬的帳篷支桿組裝而成。
The inner tent is attached to this frame.
內置帳篷固定在骨架里面。
Generally, the inner tent is about half the area of the outer tent.
一般來說，內置帳篷的面積是外圍帳篷的一半。
The other half of the outer tent is the living area.
另外一半是生活用區。
This doesn't usually have a groundsheet but you can buy one to fit, though it costs extra.
生活用區一般不配備防潮布，但是可以額外花錢配一塊。
The ordinary 4-bed frame tent doesn't usually have a separate kitchen area, but the larger ones often do.
典型的四床帳篷通常沒有獨立的廚房，但是大一點的帳篷會配備。
You can buy a kitchen extension for many tents, and it's worth buying one if you plan to stay camping in one place for more than a few days.
你可以買一個延伸出來的廚房供多個帳篷使用，如果你打算在一個地方露營較長時間，買這樣一個延伸廚房還是非常值得的。
