各位聽眾朋友，您現(xiàn)在收聽的是澳洲廣播電臺中文部為您制作的“旅游業(yè)英語”節(jié)目。
第二十課: 在元宵節(jié)燈會上
Lesson 20: At the Festival
在我們學習以下的新對話內容時，請您特別注意對話中出現(xiàn)的一些新的詞匯和短語。
Mona: Look at the lanterns. They’re so pretty. What do you think,
Dad? Dad? Leo, where’s my father?
Leo: Your father?
Mona: I can’t see him anywhere.
Mona: Why weren’t you watching?
Leo: Excuse me?
Mona: He’s not here! We must call the police.
Leo: That may not be necessary. Your father is a very
smart man, Ms White. I’m sure he knows his way back. Let’s check the hotel first.
請再聽一遍這段對話，我會將對話內容逐句翻譯成中文。
蒙納: 你看那些燈籠，它們真漂亮啊。你覺得呢，爸爸?爸爸?利奧，我爸爸在哪里?
Mona: Look at the lanterns. They’re so pretty. What do you think,Dad? Dad? Leo, where’s my father?
利奧: 你爸爸?
Leo: Your father?
蒙納: 我到處找不到他，
Mona: I can’t see him anywhere.
蒙納: 你怎么不留意他的行動呢?
Mona: Why weren’t you watching?
利奧: 對不起，您的意思是?
Leo: Excuse me?
蒙納: 他失蹤了!
Mona: He’s not here!
蒙納: 我們一定要報警。

Mona: We must call the police.
利奧: 這也許不必。您的父親是一個非常聰明的人。懷特女士，我相信他一定知道回去的路。讓我們先回酒店去找找看吧。
Leo: That may not be necessary. Your father is a very smart man, Ms White. I’m sure he knows his way back. Let’s check the hotel first.
也許情況并不象蒙納想象的那么糟糕。作為一個導游，你一定要學會如何安慰那些對突發(fā)事件反應過度的客人。有關這方面的問題，我們會在下一課中更加深入地學習?，F(xiàn)在先讓我們跟著英語老師一起來練習一下剛才對話中出現(xiàn)的兩個短句。請注意聽并跟著重復。
That may not be necessary
That may not be necessary
Let’s check the hotel first.
Let’s try his room first.
接下來讓我們一起再聽一遍這段對話的最后一部分，并請在利奧的 句子之后重復他的話。
Mona: Look at the lanterns. They’re so pretty. What do you think,
Dad? Dad? Leo, where’s my father?
Leo: Your father?
Mona: I can’t see him anywhere.
Mona: Why weren’t you watching?
Leo: Excuse me?
Mona: He’s not here! We must call the police.
Leo: That may not be necessary. Your father is a very smart man, Ms White. I’m sure he knows his way back. Let’s check the hotel first.
現(xiàn)在讓我們完整地聽一遍我們在第十九課和第二十課中學習過的對話全部內容。
Mona: Thank you for saving my hat today, Leo.
Leo: My pleasure.
Mona: You were very brave.
Leo: It was nothing, really. Now, if we get separated we’ll meet back here.
Jack: At the gate?
Leo: Yes. Now these are for you.
Mona: Lanterns!

Leo: Yes. Yours is a butterfly.
Mona: Oh, it’s pretty.
Leo: It represents longevity. And yours is a crab, Jack. It’s said to be
the symbol of the emperor.
Mona: And what’s yours, Leo?
Leo: Mine’s a lobster. A symbol of fun.
Jack: So the festival happens on the full moon?
Leo: Yes. It’s a time for families to get together.
Mona: And what about your family, Leo?
Leo: My parents live in a village a long way from here.
Mona: I mean your wife and kids…
Leo: Oh, I’m not married.
Mona: Oh really?
Jack: Excuse me, Mona, Leo?
Mona: That’s interesting…
Jack: Mona, I think I might walk down to the beach.
Mona: Tell me about the moon, Leo.
Leo: Well, the legend goes that there’s an old man on the moon who has the names of all the newborn babies. He knows who will marry whom.
Look around you. People are making wishes to him. It is said that he will grant your wish.
Mona: Really? That’s interesting.
Mona: Oh, Leo, I’m sorry I have been so rude to you.
Leo: Not at all.
Mona: No, I have been rude. You’ve been patient and wise and brave…
Leo: It’s nice of you to say so.
Mona: Look at the lanterns. They’re so pretty. What do you think,Dad? Dad? Leo, where’s my father?
Leo: Your father?
Mona: I can’t see him anywhere.
Mona: Why weren’t you watching?
Leo: Excuse me?
Mona: He’s not here! We must call the police.
Leo: That may not be necessary. Your father is a very smart man, Ms White. I’m sure he knows his way back . Let’s check the hotel first.
