今天的這段對(duì)話,在討論城市,
佛羅里達(dá)和夏威夷的天氣和生活是什么樣
來聽今天的講解:
A: This week's theme is comparing cities. B, you've lived in both Florida and Hawaii, and both of these places, people go there on vacation, so can you compare the weather?
本周的談話主題是城市對(duì)比。邁克,你在佛羅里達(dá)和夏威夷生活過,人們很喜歡去這兩個(gè)地方度假,你能比較一下這兩個(gè)地方的天氣情況嗎?
B: Well, actually both places are warm most of the year. Well, actually Hawaii is warm all year. But I would say that Hawaii's weather is probably better than Florida because the weather in Hawaii is not as extreme as it is in Florida and... so where as the temperatures in Florida would range from fifty degree to ninety degrees, in Hawaii it would stay between seventy-five and eighty-five degrees most of the year.
好,其實(shí)這兩個(gè)地方在一年中大部分時(shí)間都很溫暖。準(zhǔn)確地說,夏威夷一年到頭都很溫暖。我認(rèn)為夏威夷的天氣好于佛羅里達(dá),因?yàn)橄耐臎]有像佛羅里達(dá)那樣的極端天氣,佛羅里達(dá)的氣溫在55華氏度至90華氏度之間,而夏威夷大部分時(shí)間的氣溫在75華氏度至85華氏度之間。
A: Wow. That's really nice weather. How about the food?
哇。那真是很好的天氣狀況。食物呢?
B: Well the food, in both places are really good but it's quite different. Both places of course you can get good American food, like burgers and that type of thing, but in Florida you get a lot of foods such as Cuban food or Jamaican food which is really good that you can't get in Hawaii, but in Hawaii there's a lot of Asian influence so you can get really good Japanese food or Thai food, but also traditional Polynesian food as well.
兩個(gè)地方的食物都很美味,不過有很大不同。在這兩個(gè)地方都能吃到漢堡之類的美國(guó)美食,佛羅里達(dá)有很多在夏威夷吃不到的古巴美食和牙買加美食,而夏威夷因?yàn)槭軄喼抻绊?,有很多日本美食和泰?guó)美食,當(dāng)然也有傳統(tǒng)的波利尼西亞美食。
A: Wow. Sounds yummy. How about the shopping?
哇。聽上去都很好吃。購物呢?
B: Well, the shopping varies between both places. Florida is a lot cheaper than Hawaii. Food shopping as well as clothing and that sort of thing. I guess in Hawaii everything has to be shipped over so it's a little bit more expensive.
這兩個(gè)地方的購物情況有所不同。佛羅里達(dá)的物價(jià)比夏威夷便宜很多。食品價(jià)格和衣服價(jià)格都便宜很多。我想可能是因?yàn)橄耐牡奈锲芬么\(yùn)過去,所以價(jià)格會(huì)貴一些。
A: I didn't know that. How about the night life?
這點(diǎn)我不知道。那夜生活呢?
B: The night life in both places are really good. Hawaii has a lot of clubs if you like that type of thing and Florida of course has a lot of clubs if you like that type of thing, but there's also good bars or just movies and shows in both places.
兩個(gè)地方的夜生活都很豐富。夏威夷有很多俱樂部,如果你喜歡俱樂部那夏威夷是個(gè)好去處,當(dāng)然佛羅里達(dá)也有很多俱樂部,另外這兩個(gè)地方都有很棒的酒吧、電影院和劇院。
A: If you could live in one place, where would you live?
如果讓你在這兩個(gè)地方里選一個(gè)地方生活,你會(huì)選擇哪里?
B: I would choose to live in Hawaii. Well, I'm from Hawaii so I have a bias towards it, but I think Hawaii would be better between the two places for me.
我會(huì)選擇在夏威夷生活。我來自夏威夷,所以我肯定更偏愛夏威夷一些,另外我認(rèn)為就這兩個(gè)地方來說,夏威夷更適合我。
