Ⅰ.核心學(xué)習(xí)：Weekend away with Colleagues 與同事周末去玩

Steve: I am so tired of the city life.

史蒂夫：我很厭倦城市生活。

Mike: Do you mean all the long hours at work as well as the noise and bustle of the big smoke?

邁克： 你是指工作時(shí)間很長以及嘈雜的聲音和飛馳的濃煙？

Steve: Got it in one my friend.

史蒂夫：沒錯(cuò)，我的朋友。

Mike: How about we suggest that we all go away for a company outing to somewhere rural?

邁克： 我們建議公司里所有的人去鄉(xiāng)下某個(gè)地方玩玩，怎么樣？

Steve: That sounds like an interesting idea. Where could we go?

史蒂夫：這想法聽起來很有意思。我們可以去哪？

Mike: Well we live in this huge city, so how about we go somewhere that is the complete opposite?

邁克：嗯，我們住在大城市里，因此我們要去一個(gè)截然不同的地方，怎么樣？

Steve: Do you mean somewhere in the countryside?

史蒂夫：你是指農(nóng)村？

Mike: Yep - let's find a small village and spend the weekend away.

邁克：沒錯(cuò)―我們?nèi)フ乙粋€(gè)小村子，然后在那里度周末。

Steve: Cool! And it will be even better if we can convince the taskmaster to pay the bill!

史蒂夫：酷！如果我們能說服頭兒掏錢，那就更好了！
