情景对话
Jess: OK, so we both live in Bangkok, Tom. How do you think crossing the street is in Bangkok.
杰茜:好,汤姆,我们两个人都在曼谷生活 。你怎么看在曼谷过马路这件事?
Tom: I don't have a lot of trouble crossing the street. There's a lot of traffic but it moves quite slowly. I've never had an accident. Have you had any trouble?
汤姆:我在过马路时没有遇到太多麻烦 。虽然交通流量很大,但是车辆运行速度很慢 。我从未出过事故 。你遇到过麻烦吗?
Jess: No, I haven't but I'm very, very careful. I'll wait a long time till I know there's definitely no traffic coming because here there tends to be a lot of motorcycles here who speed around corners and you don't see them until the last minute, so I never jaywalk. I'll always wait until I know it's safe.
杰茜:没有,我没遇到过麻烦,不过我非常非常小心 。我会等待很长时间,直到我确定肯定没有车辆驶近了,我才会过马路,因为这里有很多摩托车,这些摩托车在拐弯时速度也很快,而且你在最后一刻才会看到他们,所以我从来不会乱穿马路 。我会等到我确定安全的时候 。
Tom: I like to use the pedestrian flyovers. That way, there's no chance of getting in trouble, but in this heat, it's kind of hard work climbing those steps.
汤姆:我喜欢走过街天桥 。这样就不会遇到麻烦了,不过在这种高温天气,爬台阶很难 。
Jess: It is, that's true.
杰茜:对,没错 。
