我們周二早上會去一個很棒的市場。我很肯定你們都會愛上那兒的， 所有的本地農場出產的農產品都有售賣。
Then on the Wednesday you'll get to see where all that lovely produce comes from as John Smith, a local farmer, has invited us to see him at work.

3. A: So, what topic are we going to choose for our project? It's due in three weeks.
3、A：那么，我們的項目該選什么課題？三周后就要交了。
B: I know, it's not a lot of time. I was going to suggest we do one on the environment.
B：我明白，時間不多了。我建議我們做環境類。
A: But that's so broad a topic. We should try to narrow it down. What about recycling?
A：但這個課題也太廣了。我們應該把范圍縮小些。回收課題怎么樣？
B: That's a good idea, there's a lot of information and I think the other groups are concentrating on pollution, so this would be nice and different.
B：這個主意不錯，信息很多，而且我認為其他小組主要集中于污染課題，所以這個課題很好，有新意。
4. We encountered quite a few problems during our research. Firstly, the weather was horrendous and made our work conditions very difficult indeed .
4、我們在研究過程中遇到了好些問題。首先，天氣糟透了，使得我們的工作條件變得非常艱苦。
Luckily, we had the right equipment to deal with that, and could carry on regardless.
幸運的是，我們有合適的設備來應對這一切，能排除萬難繼續工作。
Unfortunately though, in spite of having so many volunteers, we did run out of funds halfway through the project. So, we were forced to postpone the second half of our trip.
但不幸的是，盡管我們有很多志愿者，我們在項目中途資金就用完了。所以我們被迫將另一半考察之旅延后。
