Dialogue A


Beth and Josh just arrived in Switzerland.
Beth: What's on our schedule1 for today?
Josh: There's so much to do. I'm not sure where to start.
Beth: What does the guidebook2 suggest?
Josh: It depends. Do you want to do some outdoor activities?
Beth: The weather's kind of chilly today and I still feel a bit tired.
Josh: Maybe we should just lay back and try to get rid of our jet lag3.
貝絲和喬許剛抵達瑞士。
貝 絲:我們今天有哪些行程?
喬 許:可以做的事太多了。我不知該從何開始。
貝 絲:旅遊指南上有什麼建議?
喬 許:看情況囉。妳想做些戶外活動嗎?
貝 絲:今天天氣有點冷,況且我還是有點累。
喬 許:也許我們應該放輕鬆,設法克服時差就好了。

Dialogue B

Beth: Why don't we do something fun and relaxing today like go on a tour somewhere?
Josh: OK, let me check what's available.
Beth: I would like to tour either a winery4 or maybe a cheese factory.
Josh: Sure, there are lots of wine or cheese tours we can go on. There's even a fondue5 cruise6.
Beth: Let's try the cheese factory tour today and save the fondue cruise for this Friday night.

貝絲:我們今天何不做點既有趣又輕鬆的事情,像是去參觀某個地方?
喬 許:好,讓我查查看有什麼。
貝絲:我想參觀釀酒廠或乳酪工廠。
喬 許:當然可以,有許多這類的行程我們都能參加。甚至還能在船上吃起士鍋呢。
貝絲:那我們今天就去參觀乳酪工廠,星期五晚上再去坐船吃起士鍋吧。
