What are you going to do this bank holiday,Brenda?
這次國定假期你要做什么,布蘭達(dá)?
We're going to Bath for three days.
我們要去巴斯玩3天。
That's nice.I love Bath,and at Easter time,it's not too crowded with foreign tourists.
真好,我喜歡巴斯,而且在復(fù)活節(jié)前后,不會有太多外國觀光客擠在那里。
Yes,that's what I thought.In summer,it's best to go somewhere less famous,just into the countryside and stay at a small B&B somewhere.
是啊,我就是這么想的。夏天的時候,最好去其他沒那么出名的地方,只要到鄉(xiāng)下什么地方找個小民宿住就好了。
Where are you going to stay in Bath?
你們要住在巴斯的哪里?
We're going to stay near my friend's house in a pub called The George.
我們要住在靠近我朋友家的一個小酒館,叫做喬治。
In the centre?
在市中心嗎?
No,in a village just outside the city centre next to a beautiful canal.It does B&B and so it is quite cheap.
不是,在一個小村落,就在市中心外圍,緊鄰著一條美麗的運河。這家店以民宿的形式經(jīng)營,所以很便宜。
How will you get there?By bus?
你們要怎么去?搭公交車嗎?
We were going to,but we decided to rent a car instead because it's cheaper for four people.Also,it's easier to go sightseeing around the city.
我們原本要搭公交車的,不過后來決定改成租車,因為4 個人租車比較便宜,而且要在市內(nèi)到處觀光也比較方便。
Yes,a rental sounds like a good idea.When will you come back?
是啊,租一輛車聽起來不錯。你們什么時候回來?
Monday afternoon.If we leave in the evening,the traffic may be bad.Have you got any plans for the holiday,Alan?
星期一下午。如果傍晚才出發(fā),可能會塞車。你假期有什么計劃嗎,艾倫?
Yes,we'll take a boat trip along the Thames.
有啊,我們到搭船沿著泰晤士河旅行。
That sounds great.How long for?
聽起來很棒。要旅行多久?
I'm taking extra two days off work,so altogether five days.We'll go early on Saturday.
我另外多休了兩天假,所以總共是5 天。我們星期六一早就出發(fā)。
And where will you stay?
你們要住在哪里?
On the boat,of course.It's a self-catering holiday.
當(dāng)然是住在船上啰。這是一個自己開伙的假期。
You've got to do all the cooking by yourself?That doesn't sound like a holiday to me!
你們?nèi)腿家约鹤??我聽起來一點也不覺得像是在度假!
