H: is this seat taken?
S: no. please sit down.
H: thanks.
S: are you also going to Beijing?
H: yes, on a business trip. How about you?
S: I'm taking a vacation to visit a friend there. Have you ever been there before?
H: yes, I went there once last summer.
S: really? What did you think?
H: I think it is amazing. You can enjoy both the traditional Chinese culture as well as the vitality of a modern cosmopolitian city. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the subway.
S: was it that crowded?
H: yes. There were always so many people. After taking the subway during the rush hour, you’ll envy sardines in their cans.
S: oh, maybe I can take the bus or even rent a car.
H: that's a good idea. Wish you a great vacation!
S: thank you very much!
這兒有人嗎?
沒有,請坐。
謝謝。
你也是去北京的嗎?
是啊,出差。你呢?
放假去看朋友。你以前去過北京嗎?
去年夏天去過一次。
是嗎,感覺怎么樣?
挺棒的!既可以欣賞中國傳統文化,又能領略現代大都市的活力,唯一美中不足的就是北京的地鐵了。
是很擠嗎?
是啊,總是有很多人,你要是高峰期坐的話,一定會羨慕罐頭里的沙丁魚的。
這樣啊,那我還是坐公共汽車或者租輛車吧。
這主意不錯,祝你玩得愉快!
謝謝!
