Part 1 Getting Ready For the Trip 为旅行做准备

Dialogue Script 1 对话原文 1

Monica: Hi, Brian, what's with the suitcase?

Brian: I've decided to go on a trip.

Brian: No, I just bought this suitcase today for the trip. I'll take it home tonight.

Monica: Where are you going on your trip?

Brian: To Beijing.

Monica: Beijing, in China? Are you going alone?

Brian: No, I'm going with Lily.

Monica: Really! She'll be very excited.

讲解:

1. trip, journey, voyage 和 travel的区别：

(1) trip：是旅行和访问的总称，它是最常用的一个，经常用来代替 travel 。

比如： How long does the trip last？这次旅行将历时多久？

He makes frequent trips to London on business.他经常出差去伦敦。

(2)journey：常指去访问某地并从访问过的地方回来的整个行驶过程，一般指陆地上的旅行，而且有预定的地点。比如：We had a terrible journey. 我们的这次旅行糟糕透了。

(3)voyage：专指横跨海洋的水上远程旅行，常常到达一个遥远的国家，现在也可指空中旅行。比如：

He is going on a voyage round the world. 他打算去环游世界。

(4)travel：泛指旅行。比如：travel industry 旅游业 travel service/travel agency旅行社

We traveled for over fifteen hours. 我们旅行了15个小时以上了。

2. suitcase，旅行箱，行李箱，例如： Linda put clothes in a suitcase to get ready for her trip.林达收拾好衣服放进行李箱准备去旅游了。 再补充一个pack这个词，动词，打包的意思。例如： I need to pack my suitcase for the trip. 我要去旅游得开始打包了，就是得开始收拾行李了。还可以简单地说， I have packed for my trip. 我已经收拾好行李了。

3. What's with the suitcase?当中的What's with something or somebody? 表示某事某物是怎么回事，比如: What's with the TV?那台电视机是怎么回事? What's with Tom today? He looks so weird. 今天汤姆是怎么了? 看起来怪怪的。

4. go on a trip.表示去旅行，后面再加一点东西，就变成 go on a trip to some place, 例如：I'm going on a trip to Europe. 我要去欧洲旅行。

5. go alone自己去;go with somebody和某人去。

Dialogue Script 2 对话原文 2

Susan：Hi, David, getting ready for a vacation in the States?

David: Hello, Susan. Oh, yes, I'm just checking with my baggage.

Susan: You must be very excited about it. Where are you visiting in the States?

David: Los Angeles. Our headquarter is there.

Susan: Have you ever been there before?

David: No, never. This is my first time.

Susan: Are you gonna visit New York?

David: Yes, I'll spend a couple of days there too.

Susan: Have you gotten your plane tickets yet?

David: Yes, it's right in the envelope over there.

Susan: You already made a hotel reservation?

David: Yes, a single room.

Susan: And your passport and visa?

David: All settled.

David: Incidentally, is there anything you want me to get for you in the states?

Susan: That's very kind of you. But no, thanks.

David: OK, then can you do me a favor?

Susan: Yes?

David: Can you water my plants and take care of my cat?

Susan: Sure, I'll even talk to them every morning like you do.

讲解:

1. 这段对话讲的是David正在准备去美国的旅行。里面提到了一些旅行前需要准备的事情。首先要检查行李，看看东西都带齐了吗。（I'm checking with my baggage.）check with something 检查某物。例如： Check with the gas before you go out. 出门前检查一下煤气有没有关好。

2. baggage表示行李，但是它的范围就比suitcase 大了，包括旅行袋、 包裹等等，和她差不多的还有luggage这个词，不过美语当中baggage用的多一些。

3. 行李检查好了，再看看机票在没在手里。（Have you gotten your plane ticket？）plane ticket 机票，往往要提前几天预订，如果赶上旅游旺季还要提前几个月预订.

4. Susan 问David酒店房间预定好了没有，(You already made a hotel reservation?) make a reservation 预订\定位子。 例如: Peter made a dinner reservation for 6:00 p.m. on Friday. 彼得定了周五晚上六点吃饭的位子。

5. 出国一定要有本国护照和那个国家的签证。护照是passport，签证是visa。这些都是要提前办理的。

6. 几个跟旅游有关的常用句型：

(1) I have (never) been to.../here/there before. Have you ever been to.../here/ there before?

我去过...，我没去过...，还可以问你去过哪没有?

例如： Have you ever been to Paris before? 你以前去过巴黎吗？

Yes, I've been there twice.去过两次了。 / No, never. 从来没去过。

(2) this is the first time I have been in.../here/there.

这是说我第一次到...， 用现在完成时。也可以说好多次，就是把first换成second third，等序数词就行了。或者夸张一点说，This is the thousandth time I have been there! 对话里把后面的现在完成时省略掉了。

Part 2 Happy Flight 乘飞机旅行

Dialogue Script 1 对话原文 1

Peter: You have to get to the airport at least two hours before the flight.

Sue: Why?

Peter: Because you need to check in.

Sue: What does that mean?

Peter: It means you give the airline your ticket and you get a boarding pass. Then they take your suitcase and put it on the plane?

Sue: Oh, I see. Umh, I don't really like it.

讲解:

1. 这段对话讲的是在机场要做的一些事情。首先你要至少提前两个小时到机场， the airport，因为有很多手续要办，而且如果赶上人多的话，就更费时间了。

2. 第一步是要办理登机手续，就是check in，要去给你的那次航班的航空公司去验票，航空公司是airline，验票后，你就可以拿到一张登机牌，boarding pass You need a boarding pass to get on an airplane. 只有拿到登机牌才能上飞机。上面会写明你的座位号。

3. 然后你的行李就可以交给航空公司托运了。
