情景对话

Jeff: I was born in the country and grew up in the country but now I live in the city, in Tokyo city, a very, very big city and I love the country but I also love the city. Each place has it's own good points, for example the country is quiet and relaxed and you're calm in the country and your head is clear, your mind is clear, and you listen to the birds and look at the clouds and watch the sunrise and it's very peaceful but in the city, it's, there is a lot of energy, there's a lot of people, and there's a lot of commotion, a lot of lights and a lot of action, so the quiet country side gives you energy, and makes you strong but the city and all the action, and all the sites and the sounds and the smells also gives you energy so I think they both have their good points.
杰夫：我出生在乡村，成长在乡村，不过现在我住在城市里，我住在东京，这是一个非常大的城市，我非常喜欢乡村生活，不过我也喜欢城市生活Q,S.!@sv|qb2()^~。每个地方都有优点，举例来说，乡村很安静，可以放松身心，在乡村你可以得到平静，你的头脑很清醒，头脑清晰，你可以听鸟鸣，看看云彩，观看日出，非常平和的生活，不过在城市里的话，会有许多活力，城市里有许多人，非常喧闹，有许多灯光，许多活动，所以安静的乡村生活可以给你能量，使你变得更强，而城市里的活动、各个地方、各种声音、各种味道也会使你充满能量，所以我认为他们都有各自的优点h~el*KGn|1c.@qXW。
