The speakers discuss two possible solutions to the woman's problem.
下面的這兩位談話者將要就該女性所遇到的麻煩，提出一些解決方案。
Briefly summarize the problem then state which solution you recommend and explain why.
請(qǐng)簡(jiǎn)單總結(jié)一下所遇到的問(wèn)題，然后請(qǐng)?zhí)岢瞿愕膬A向的解決方案，并說(shuō)明一下原因。
Now listen to a conversation between two students.
現(xiàn)在，請(qǐng)聽兩名學(xué)生之間的談話。
Man: Hey, Mary, how's your volunteer work going?
男：嗨，Mary，你的志愿者工作怎么樣了？
You're still involved in that after-school program with the elementary kids?
你還在做那個(gè)小學(xué)生課后項(xiàng)目嗎？
Woman: Yeah, but I've got a problem. I am supposed to be driving a bunch of them to the zoo tomorrow.
女：對(duì)呀，但是我現(xiàn)在遇到一些麻煩。我本來(lái)明天是要帶他們坐車去動(dòng)物園的。
Man: Yeah?
男：嗯？
Woman: And I was supposed to rent a van for the trip.
女：這次旅行，我本來(lái)是要租一輛面包車的。
But I waited too long to call the rental agency to reserve one.
但是我拖了很久才給租賃公司打電話訂。
Man: Oh!
男：啊！
Woman: Now it turns out they don't have any vans available for tomorrow.
女：現(xiàn)在的結(jié)果就是他們明天沒(méi)有面包車。
I don't know what to do? These kids will be really disappointed if their trip gets cancelled.
我不知道該怎么辦了？如果旅行取消了，孩子們會(huì)很失望的。
Man: Hmmm, well, doesn't one of your friends on campus have a car?
男：唔，嗯，你學(xué)校的朋友沒(méi)有車嗎？
I mean, couldn't you borrow it for the day?
我的意思是，你那天不能借一輛車？
Woman: Yeah, probably, but I'd need to borrow two cars or there wouldn't be enough space for all the kids.
女：呃，也許能，但是我需要借兩輛車，這樣才能夠所有的孩子。
Man: Um, hum.
男：唔，嗯。
Woman: That's why I was going to rent the van.
女：所以我才會(huì)去租面包車啊。
And then I'd need to find somebody else to drive, too. I can't drive two cars by myself.
然后，我還需要找別人來(lái)開車。我自己不能同時(shí)開兩輛車啊。
Man: Yeah, that's true. Well, I am sure you can probably find a volunteer or if you wanted to save yourself the trouble of hunting down a second driver, what about public transportation?
男：呃，確實(shí)是這樣。唔，我相信你可以找到其他志愿者的。不過(guò)，如果你想省去找司機(jī)的麻煩，為什么不考慮一下公共交通？
Check the bus schedule, I think there's a bus line that goes right past the zoo.
查查公交運(yùn)行計(jì)劃，我覺(jué)得應(yīng)該是有線路直達(dá)動(dòng)物園的。
Woman: Yeah, that's a possibility, but I don't know, it might be a real challenge supervising the kids on the bus.
女：是的，這樣也行，但是我不知道，要看管公交上的所有小孩，這可能對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)真是個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)。
Sometimes they are a handful when they get excited. It's an option, though.
孩子們一興奮起來(lái)，有時(shí)候還真棘手。盡管，這確實(shí)是個(gè)選擇。
