Goodafternoon, and welcome to City Hour, the radio show brings you all the latest information about advance in and around our city.
下午好,歡迎收聽City Hour,我們這檔廣播節目會給您帶來本市以及周邊所有活動的最新信息。
Today, we have Welter Cinchier Smith, who's heading up this year's city fair.
今天我們邀請到了Synthia Smith,這一屆城市博覽會的負責人來節目做客。
Cinchier, will you start bargaining some of the basic information about the fair? Where will it take place this year?
Synthia,開頭請你介紹一些博覽會的基本信息吧,今年會在哪里舉行呢?
I'm glad you ask that question. Because I know most people will be expecting the fair ground as usual.
這個問題問得好,因為我知道大部分人還以為今年的博覽會會和往年一樣在博覽中心舉行。
But we have changed the location this year due to some construction work.
但是由于一些工程原因,我們不得不更改了今年的博覽會舉行地點。
You know, the building near high school and that neighborhood are now being used as a fair ground as a placeto store constructive materials.
你們也知道,那附近正在建一個新的高中,而且他們一直都把博覽中心當做放置建筑材料的地方。
So we've moved the fair to City Park, which I think it's a wonderful location.
所以我們就把博覽會改到了市公園舉行,我覺得這個地點選擇得非常棒。
Yes, that will be a great place for the fair. I understand the fair begins on Friday morning with a special opening event.
對,那里會很適合舉行博覽會的。我聽說博覽會星期五上午開始,還有一個特殊的開幕活動。
Actually, it n't begin until that evening. But you're right about the special event.
事實上,博覽會星期五晚上才開始。不過你關于特殊活動的消息是對的。
Traditionally, we began with a pray, but this year, our opening event will be a special dance performance.
以往我們都是以祈禱作為開場,不過今年我們的開幕活動是一個特別的舞蹈表演。
And the most exciting part is the mare will be one of the dancers.
最精彩的部分是,市長也會作為一名舞蹈演員參與表演。
The mare is a warmer-up of many talents. Cinchier, cowill you tell our listeners about the price admission? What will it cost to attend the fair?
市長一向多才多藝,Synthia,你能不能把入場券的價格告訴我們的聽眾?要參加博覽會的話得花多少錢?
We're trying to keep the price down as much as possible. A 3-day pass is just 25 dolallars. Or you can buy aSaturday or Sunday only pass for 15 dollars.
我們在盡可能地把價格降到最低。一張為期三天的入場券只要25美元,或者你們也可以買一張僅限周六或周日使用的券,只要15美元。
The opening event on Friday for dance performance doesn't cost anything to attend. And I'm hoping a lot of people will come to watch that.
要參加周五的開幕活動,觀看舞蹈表演的話,一分錢也不用出。我預計會有很多人前來觀看表演的。
Now listen and answer questions 15—20.
請聽并回答問題15—20。
Cowill you tell us about some of the events plan for Saturday and Sunday, the main days of the fair.
你能不能跟我們講講,博覽會舉行的主要日期周六、周日計劃都有哪些活動?
We have a lot of exciting things planned. There are a number of events especially for children including a clown show on Saturday afternoon.
我們準備了很多精彩的活動。有許多活動是專門為孩子們準備的,包括周六下午的小丑表演。
On Saturday evening, we've got an event that can be enjoyed by the whole family, a concert by the lake.
周六晚上,我們準備了一個可以全家一起觀看的節目——湖邊音樂會。
I'm sure that will be a popular event. Is there anything special planned for Sunday?
我相信那會很受歡迎的。周日有什么特別的活動嗎?
Yes, a really fun event. And we hope a lot of people will participate. There'll be a singing contest in the afternoon.
有,一個特別有趣的活動。周日下午會舉行一個歌唱比賽,我們希望大家都能參與進來
It's open to everyone and no charge. It doesn't matter whether you are an experience or you are not. If you've always dreamed of singing on stage, this is your chance.
這個比賽免費對所有人開放,有沒有歌唱經驗都不要緊。如果你一直渴望登上舞臺唱歌的話,那你的機會就來了。
That sounds like a lot of fun.
聽起來太有趣了。
I think it will be. I'd also like to let your listeners to know that beside the special events I've mentioned, there will be things taking place all weekend.
一定會的。我還想告訴各位聽眾,除了我提到的這些特殊活動之外,整個周末都會舉行各式各樣的活動。
For example, the food court, International food will be served. You'll be out of sample dishes from all around the world.
比如,在食物展區會提供來自世界各地的食物。你們可以試吃全世界的菜品。
There will also be special games for children at different locations around the fair.
在博覽會各處都會有為孩子準備的特別游戲。
Will there be things that people can buy, souvenirs, anything like that?
到時候有什么大家可以購買的東西嗎?像紀念品之類的。
We have a large area set aside where there'll be crafts for sale.
我們在博覽會一側設置了一塊很大的區域出售手工品。
This will be an opportunity to buy many lovely hand-made things. And to get to know some of our local luscious crafts people as well.
大家都有機會能夠買到很多可愛的手工品,并且還能認識一些我們當地的藝術家和手工藝人。
It sounds like there will be a lot of fun for everyone at this year's fair. Thank you for sharing information with us, Cinchier.
聽起來似乎每個人都能在今年的博覽會上找到很多好玩的東西。Synthia,謝謝你跟我們分享這些信息。
