“旅游業(yè)英語”

English for Tourism

第九課: 為客人指路

Lesson 9: Giving directions

各位聽眾朋友好。我是澳洲廣播電臺的節(jié)目支持人馬健媛。歡迎您收聽“旅游英語”。這套二十六課的英語教學節(jié)目將使您可以輕松地與講英語的客人進行對話。這套教材的課程設置是這樣的，每一課涵蓋服務業(yè)中的一個重要話題。如果您在學習過程中一開始不太理解課文內容的話，請您不必著急，因為老師會在授課過程中不斷地講解和復習這些對話的內容。而在每兩課為一單元結束時您會聽到這一段對話的完整內容，屆時您也許會吃驚地發(fā)現(xiàn)自己可以聽懂對話的很多內容呢

在第九課里，您將學習如何為人指路，您也將學習如何提建議，以及當他人要求對問題加以澄清時，如何回應。另外您將練習估計時間?，F(xiàn)在請聽對話的第一部分與中文翻譯。酒店客人蒙納與她的父親杰克打算去購物，他們向酒店前臺接待員利奧問路查詢方向。

現(xiàn)在讓我們開始這一課的學習。

利奧: 早上好，懷特女士和偉博先生

Leo: Good morning, Ms White, Mr Webber.

杰克: 早上好，利奧

Jack: Good morning, Leo.

蒙納: 你好，利奧。這附記有什么大的購物中心嗎？

Mona: Hi, Leo. Is there a major shopping centre nearby?

利奧: 星光購物中心里面有一百多家店鋪，我相信您一定可以在那里找到您想要的東西。

Leo: The Starlight Shopping Centre has over a hundred shops. I’m sure you’ll find what you want there.

蒙納: 去那里的路怎么走？

Mona: How do we get there?

利奧: 出了酒店先向右拐，到了交通燈再向左拐，然后沿著路一直向前走，再到了一個交通燈后就過馬路，看到一個粉色的塔再向右拐。

Leo: Well, turn right outside the hotel and left at the traffic lights. Go straight up the street, cross at the next set of lights and turn right at the pink tower. …

蒙納: 天哪，這可真是難記住啊。

Mona: Oh dear, that’s too hard to remember.

利奧: 那么就叫一輛記程車吧。您可以在酒店外面找到記程車。

Leo: Well then, what about a taxi? You can get one just outside the hotel.

現(xiàn)在請您注意聽下列有關指路的短語并跟著重復

向右轉

Leo: Turn right.

出酒店向右轉

Leo: Turn right outside the hotel.

向左轉

Leo: Turn left.

到了交通燈向左轉

Leo: Turn left at the traffic lights.

橫過，穿過馬路

Leo: Cross.

到了下一個交通燈后就橫過馬路

Leo: Cross at the next set of lights.

一直向前走

Leo: Walk straight.

沿著路一直向前走

Leo: Walk straight up the street.

您注意到了嗎？利奧在為客人指路時提到了很多地標，例如交通燈和粉色的塔等等，但是他沒有使用街道的名稱，這主要是因為對于講英語的游客來說，讓他們看懂以另外一種語言書寫的街道名稱是不可能的事情。好，現(xiàn)在讓我們聽聽利奧是如何向客人提議叫一輛記程車的。在英語里，記程車有兩個說法，一個是 taxi，另外一種說法就是 cab。

Leo: Well then, what about a taxi?

在這種情況下，您可以使用 how about…. 這個短語句式，也可以用更加正規(guī)的說法，那就是 May I suggest….請聽老師的示范。

What about?

What about a taxi?

How about?

How about a taxi?

May I suggest?

May I suggest a cab?

現(xiàn)在請聽這段對話的前半部份，請在利奧的講話之后跟著重復他的話。

Leo: Good morning, Ms White, Mr Webber.

Jack: Good morning, Leo.

Mona: Hi, Leo. Is there a shopping centre nearby?

Leo: The Starlight Shopping Centre has over a hundred shops.

Leo: I’m sure you’ll find what you want there.
 
Mona: And how do we get there?.
 
Leo: Well, turn right outside the hotel, 
 
Leo: …and left at the traffic lights.
 
Leo: Go straight up the street,
 
Leo: …cross at the next set of lights
 
Leo: …and turn right at the pink tower…
 
Mona: Oh dear, that’s too hard to remember.
 
Leo: Well then, what about a taxi?
 
Leo: You can get one just outside the hotel.

各位聽眾朋友，您現(xiàn)在收聽的是澳洲廣播電臺為您編播制作的“旅游業(yè)英語”教學課程。

第九課: 為客人指路

Lesson 9: Giving directions

請再聽一遍這段對話

Leo: Good morning, Ms White, Mr Webber. 

Jack: Good morning, Leo.
 
Mona: Hi, Leo. Is there a shopping centre nearby?
 
Leo: The Starlight Shopping Centre has over a hundred shops.
 
Leo: I’m sure you’ll find what you want there.
 
Mona: And how do we get there?
 
Leo: Well, turn right outside the hotel,
 
Leo: …and left at the traffic lights.
 
Leo: Go straight up the street,
 
Leo: …cross at the next set of lights
 
Leo: …and turn right at the pink tower…
 
Mona: Oh dear, that’s too hard to remember. 

Leo: Well then, what about a taxi?
 
Leo: You can get one just outside the hotel.

請注意聽這段對話的后半部份及其中文翻譯

杰克: 我倒是不在意走路過去，蒙納。。。出了酒店向右拐對嗎，利奧？

Jack: I don’t mind walking, Mona… We turn right outside the hotel, Leo?

利奧: 沒錯，到了交通燈再向左拐

Leo: Yes, that’s right. Then left at the traffic lights.

杰克: 向左拐嗎？

Jack: Turn left?

利奧: 對了，然后沿著路一直向前走

Leo: That’s right. Then walk straight up the street (and …)

蒙納: 走到那里要多少時間

Mona: How long does it take to walk there?

利奧: 大約需要十分鐘

Leo: It takes about 10 minutes.

蒙納: 爸爸，我看我們還是叫一輛記程車吧。謝謝你了，利奧。

Mona: Then let’s get a cab, Dad. Thanks anyway, Leo.

利奧: 不客氣。

Leo: My pleasure.

現(xiàn)在讓我們一起來聽聽當杰克要求對一些問題加以澄清時，我們那位一貫對客人彬彬有禮、異常耐心的利奧是如何回應的吧。

We turn right outside the hotel, Leo?

Leo: Yes, that’s right.

Jack: Turn left?

Leo: That’s right.

請注意聽并跟著重復

That’s right.

That’s right.

Yes, that’s right.

Yes, that’s right.

你注意到了嗎？right 這個英文字實際上在中文里有兩個不同的意思。它可以是左右的“右”，比如說向右轉，turn right, 也可以表示對錯的“對”, 比如說 that’s right.

接下來請注意聽利奧是如何表達走路到購物中心需要多少時間的大約需要十分鐘 

Leo: It takes about 10 minutes.

請注意聽并跟著重復下列句子

大約需要十分鐘

It takes about 10 minutes.

需要一個小時

It takes an hour.

需要四十分鐘

It takes 40 minutes.

現(xiàn)在請您來試著說。老師會給您提出三個問題，首先您會聽到問題的中文部份，然后是英語的提問，接下來老師會給您一個表示時間的短語，例如 five minutes, 五分鐘。請您在聽到鈴聲之后用老師提供的時間短語回答相應的問題。比如: it takes five minutes。需要五分鐘。最后請聽正確的答案并跟著重復。

開車進城需要多少時間？

How long is the drive to the city?

Twenty minutes.

It takes twenty minutes.

How long does the harbour cruise take?

Jack: I don’t mind walking, Mona…
 
Jack: We turn right outside the hotel, Leo?

Leo: Yes, that’s right.
