第十六课： 讨论旅游内容
Lesson 16: Discussing a Tour

在上一课中，我们学习了如何询问客人的喜好、如何表述即将发生的事情以及如何向客人提出建议。而在这一课中，我们将学习向客人介绍旅游日程时会用到的一些短语。此外您还有机会继续练习如何用英语向客人提出建议。在这一段对话中，蒙纳和杰克在酒店的大堂里与导游利奥见了面，利奥向客人介绍第二天的旅游日程。“日程”这个词在英语里是ITINERARY。请听新的对话，我会把每句话为您翻译成中文。
Leo: All right. Let's go over our itinerary. We’II take the morning cruise and then have lunch at the quay. After that, we can visit the temples or you can come back and rest, depending on how you feel.
"利奥： 那么现在让我向您介绍一下旅游的日程吧。我们早上去乘游船，中午在码头吃饭。然后我们可以去参观寺庙，你们也可以回酒店休息，这就要看你们的感觉而定了。
Jack: Yes, let's play that by ear.
态克： 好啊，那就让我们看当时的情况再决定吧。
Leo: At six we’II have a traditional dinner and then go to the parade."
利奥： 六点钟的时候我们要去品尝传统式晚餐，然后去看灯会。
Mona: Excellent. What time should we start out?
蒙纳： 太好了。我们什么时候出发？
Leo:We should leave the hotel at about 7.30. Don't forget to bring your camera and it's a good idea to wear warm clothes. It can get quite chilly on the ferry.
利奥： 我们应该在早上七点半从酒店出发。不要忘记带着你们的照相机。另外，带些御寒的衣物也是一个好主意。游船上可能会比较冷。

这段对话中的内容很多。利奥首先集中介绍了一天的活动内容，确保他的客人明白第二天要做些什么及活动的顺序。需要注意的是利奥在介绍事情的前后顺序时使用了AFTER THAT THEN这两个词。

请跟着练习下列的短句。
…and then.
…and then have lunch at the quay.
After that.
After that we can visit the temples.

现在让我们来听听利奥在建议客人不要忘记带物品时是怎么说的。
Leo: Don't forget to bring your camera.
利奥： 不要忘记带着你们的照相机...
Leo: and it's a good idea to wear warm clothes.
利奥： 带些御寒的衣物也是一个好主意。

在这里，利奥分别使用了DON'T FORGET相IT'S A GOOD IDEA这两个句型。让我们和老师一起来练习一下。
Don't forget.
Don't forget to bring your camera.
lt's a good idea.
lt's a good idea to wear warm clothes.

接下来让我们一起来收听这段对话中我们目前为止学过的内容。请注意，老师会在利奥的每句话之后会留出一段时间让你重复这句话。
Leo: All right. Let's go over our itinerary.
Leo: We'II take the morning cruise_
Leo: and then have lunch at the quay.
Leo: After that, we can visit the temples_
Leo: or you can come back and rest_
Leo: depending on how you feel.
Jack: Yes, let's play that by ear.
Leo: At six we itional dinner
Leo: and then go to the parade.
Mona: Excellent. What time should we start out?
Leo:We should leave the hotel at about 7.30.
Leo: Don't forget to bring your camera_
Leo: and it's a good idea to wear warm clothes.
Leo: It can get quite chilly on the ferry.

第十六课： 讨论旅游内容。
Lesson 16: Discussing a Tour

接下来我们要学习这段对话中的新内容。在这部份的对话中，利奥就第二天如何与他的客人蒙纳和杰克见面做出了安排。
Mona: Should we take any food?
Leo: There's a kiosk on the ferry but I can ask the kitchen to make up
something to take with you if you prefer.
Jack: Thanks Leo, some sandwiches would be great.
Leo: IIIl make the arrangements now. See you in the lobby at 7.30.
Mona: Yes, see you then, Leo.

请再听一遍这段对话的最后一部分及中文翻译。
Mona: Should we take any food?
蒙纳： 我们需要带任何食物吗？
Leo: There's a kiosk on the ferry but I can ask the kitchen to make up something to take with you if you prefer.
利奥： 游船上有个小卖部。但是如果你们愿意的话，我可以通知厨房为你们准备一些东西。
Jack: Thanks Leo, some sandwiches would be great.
杰克： 谢谢你，利奥。准备一些三明治就好了。
Leo: …make the arrangements now. See you in the lobby at 7.30.
利奥： 我现在就去做安排。我们明天七点半在酒店大堂见。
Mona: Yes, see you then, Leo.
蒙纳： 好吧。明天见，利奥。

在这部份的对话中有一个非常有用的短语IF YOU PREFER，如果你们愿意的话。您还记得吗？在此之前我们还学习了另外一个短语，那就是DEPENDING ON HOW YOU FEEL，看你们的感觉而定。当我们想要给客人提供不同的选择，让客人自己做出决定时，这两个短语就可以派上用场了。它们在旅游业和服务业英语常用对话中非常有用。同样的，I'LL MAKE THE ARRANGEMENTS. “我就去做安排”这句短语也可以用在服务业中的多种场合。另外，在这段对话中我们还学习了START OUT“出发”这个词组，这个词组的意思和用法与WHAT TIME DO WE LEAVE? “我们什么时候出发？”，这句话中的LEAVE是一样的。让我们一起来练习一下好吗？我先给出中文，请您将它们译成英语。
lf you prefer.
如果你们愿意的话。
Or you can take a taxi if you prefer.
如果你们愿意的话可以坐记程车。
Depending on how you feel.
看你们的感觉而定。
Or you can take a taxi, depending on how you feel.
你们可以坐记程车，这要看你们的感觉而定。
I'll make the arrangements.
我就去做安排。
What time will we start out?
找们什么时候出发？

好，现在让我们一起来学习英语中的一个非常流行的俚语。先请您听一遍杰克在这段对话中所说的一句话。 杰克这句话的意思就是“让我们看当时的情况再决定”。我们说TOPLAY SOMETHING BY EAR的用意就是要避免对事情做出最终的结论，等事到临头的时候根据当事人的感觉而定。请跟着老师重复这个句子。

杰克这句话的意思就是“让我们看当时的情况再决定”。我们说“TO PLAY SOMETHING BY EAR”的用意就是要避免对事情做出最终的结论，等事到临头的时候根据当事人的感觉而定和“LET'S WAIT AND DECIDE LATER”“等稍后再做决定”是一样的意思。请跟着老师重复这个句子。
Let's play it by ear.
Let's play it by ear.
Let's wait and play it by ear.
Let's wait and play it by ear.

我们再听一遍这段对话的最后一部分，请利用利奥讲话之后的停顿间隙重复他所说的句子。
