Visiting a Tourist Attraction
參觀一個旅遊景點

英文會話

Daniel: Whew! I’m finally here! It really took me forever! Let’s see where the first stop on my journey is. Excuse me, can you tell me how I can get there?

Archi: Oh, you mean the most popular tourist attraction in this city? First, you have to go straight and walk for approximately five minutes, next, turn right after you see a convenience store. And then, you will see a bus stop. Take the number nine.

Daniel: Hang on a second, let me take some notes. How long would it take to get there?

Archi: About fifteen minutes; it depends on the traffic condition. You’d better be quick; the frequency of bus number nine is half an hour.

Daniel: Thanks a million. I’d better pick up the pace.


Daniel: Hey, it’s you again! We are destined to meet at this magnificent place! It’s so beautiful here!

Archi: You are overthinking it. It’s only a coincidence. Do you want me to take a picture of you?

Daniel: Sure! (“CLICK”) Oops! I think I was looking away… could you please take one more for me?

Archi: Okay. (“CLICK”)

Daniel: Sorry, but I just blinked… can you take another one, please?

Archi: You are really nagging.

中文翻譯

丹尼爾:呼!我終於在這裡了!這真是花了我好久的時間!來瞧瞧我的旅途的第一站是哪裡呢?不好意思,你可以跟我說我要怎麼到那裡嗎?
阿奇:哦!你是說這個城市最熱門的旅遊景點嗎?首先,你必須直走大約五分鐘,接著,在你看到一間便利商店後右轉,然後你會看到一個公車站,搭九號公車。
丹尼爾:稍等一下,讓我做個筆記。到那裡要花多久時間?
阿奇:大概十五分鐘吧,這取決於路況。你最好快一點,這公車半小時才來一班。
丹尼爾:太感謝你了,我最好加緊我的腳步。

丹尼爾:嘿!又遇見你了!我們注定要在這壯麗的地方相遇!這裡真是美麗!
阿奇:你想太多了,這只是個巧合。你要我幫你拍一張你的照片嗎?
丹尼爾:當然好。(喀嚓) 糟糕,我覺得我剛才沒看鏡頭,妳可以再為我拍一張嗎?
阿奇:好。(喀嚓)
丹尼爾:對不起,可是我剛才閉眼了,妳可以再拍一張嗎?拜託。
阿奇:你真的很囉唆耶。
