GOING FOR A DRIVE IN THE COUNTRY
Yunbo: Hello!
云波：喂。
Dashan: Hi, Yunbo. Have you looked outside yet?
大山：云波，你好。你朝窗外看過(guò)嗎?
Yunbo: No, I haven’t. Not yet. I’m just getting up.
云波：沒(méi)有，還沒(méi)有看過(guò)。我剛剛要起床。
Dashan: Oh, I’m sorry. I hope I haven’t disturbed you.
大山：噢，對(duì)不起，我希望我沒(méi)打攪你吧。
Yunbo: No, it’s okay. I was ready to get up anyway.
云波：沒(méi)有，沒(méi)關(guān)系。我反正也要起床的。
Dashan: Well, I think it’s going to be a gorgeous day. So, how about going for a drive in the country?
大山：嘿，我覺(jué)得今天天氣一定會(huì)很好。我們開(kāi)車到鄉(xiāng)間去兜風(fēng)，你看怎么樣?
Yunbo: Sounds like a great idea to me.
云波：我看這是個(gè)好主意。
Dashan: We’re been in Canada for almost a month now and we haven’t seen much of the countryside yet.
大山：我們來(lái)加拿大已經(jīng)快有一個(gè)月了，可是我們還沒(méi)怎么看見(jiàn)鄉(xiāng)下的景色呢。
Yunbo: You’re right, Dashan. Rumei’s still sleeping, but I know she’ll love the idea.
云波：大山，你說(shuō)得對(duì)，如梅現(xiàn)在還在睡覺(jué)，可我相信她會(huì)贊同這個(gè)建議的。
Dashan: Great. I’ll ask the front desk clerk for the name of the car rental agency nearby.
大山：好的。我來(lái)向服務(wù)臺(tái)工作人員問(wèn)問(wèn)附近的汽車租賃處。
Yunbo: Okay. Let’s meet in the coffee shop in about an hour. We can all go to the car rental agency together.
云波：行，大約一個(gè)小時(shí)后我們?cè)诳Х葟d見(jiàn)。我們可以一起去汽車租賃處。
Dashan: See you then.
回頭見(jiàn)。
Rumei: I can’t wait to go out into the wide open spaces. It’ll be great to unwind.
如梅：我巴不得現(xiàn)在就到廣闊的田野里去。能輕松一下簡(jiǎn)直太好了。
Yunbo: I agree. You always come up with great ideas, Dashan.
云波：我也這么想。大山，你總是能想出好主意。
Dashan: Thanks, I think we’re going to have a terrific time.
大山：謝謝夸獎(jiǎng)。我想我們會(huì)很開(kāi)心的。
Rumei: Well, I’ve brought my camera and two rolls of film.
如梅：我么，我?guī)狭苏障鄼C(jī)還帶上了兩個(gè)膠卷。
Agent: Good morning, sir. How can I help you?
經(jīng)辦人：你好，先生。要我?guī)兔?
Dashan: I’d like to rent a car for the weekend.
大山：我想租一輛汽車周末用。
Agent: Certainly. Do you have a reservation?
經(jīng)辦人：當(dāng)然可以。你預(yù)訂了嗎?
Dashan: No, I’m afraid I don’t.
大山：沒(méi)有，我沒(méi)有。
Agent: Well, let me see... You’re in luck. I have a few cars left. What size car would you like?
經(jīng)辦人：那么，讓我來(lái)查一查。你很有運(yùn)氣。我這兒還剩下幾部車。您需要什么型號(hào)的車?
Dashan: Let’s see... We’re three adults. Have you got any mid-size cars?
大山：我想想。我們是三個(gè)大人。你有中型的嗎?
Agent: Yes, I have. I’ve got a Ford. We have a special rate this weekend...$89.90, including tax. You get 800 kilometres free. Then it’s 12 cents for each additional kilometre.
經(jīng)辦人：有。我這兒有一部福特牌的。這個(gè)周末我們實(shí)行優(yōu)惠價(jià)，89.90加元，包括稅金以及800公里行程。然后每行車一公里，加收12分。
Dashan: That sounds reasonable.
大山：聽(tīng)起來(lái)倒是很合理。
Agent: May I see your driver’s license and a major credit card?
經(jīng)辦人：請(qǐng)給我看看你的汽車駕駛執(zhí)照和一張主要信用卡，好嗎?
Dashan: Here you are.
大山：給你。
Agent: Would you like to take out collision insurance?
經(jīng)辦人：你愿意購(gòu)買交通事故保險(xiǎn)嗎?
Dashan: No, thanks. I won’t need any insurance. My credit card covers it.
大山：不，謝謝。我不需要任何保險(xiǎn)。我的信用證包括這項(xiàng)。
Agent: May I have a local address?
經(jīng)辦人：請(qǐng)問(wèn)您在本地的住址?
Dashan: I’m staying at the Hotel St. Jacques on Pierre Street.
大山：我們住在皮埃爾大街的圣雅克旅館。
Agent: Can you sign this agreement in these three places? Thanks. You can pick up your car in the parking lot. Yours is the white Ford.
經(jīng)辦人：請(qǐng)您在這三個(gè)地方簽字，好嗎?謝謝。您可以到停車場(chǎng)去取車。您的車是白色的福特。
Dashan: Thank you.
大山：謝謝。
