談?wù)劶永粮晁谷簫u，去那里旅行時遇到總統(tǒng)是什么體驗
 
來聽今天的講解:
 
A: OK, Jose, you just said you went to the Galapagos Islands.
 
好，何塞，你說你去過加拉帕戈斯群島。
 
B: Yes.
 
沒錯。
 
A: Can you talk about the Galapagos?
 
你能談?wù)劶永粮晁谷簫u嗎？
 
B: Yes, the Galapagos, as everybody knows is such a unique place and I went there and by chance I was in the same tour like with President Carter.
 
當(dāng)然，就像所有人都知道的那樣，加拉帕戈斯群島是一個非常獨特的地方，我在偶然間遇到了去那里旅行的卡特總統(tǒng)。
 
A: Really!
 
真的嗎？
 
B: Yeah!
 
對！
 
A: Wow! He's my favorite president.
 
哇！他是我最喜歡的總統(tǒng)。
 
B: Well, it's so interesting because you know the guy was, I mean when went there, all of a sudden I had this strange people looking at me. I say, "What happened? What's wrong?" There were 8 bodyguards with the guy.
 
嗯，這很有意思，因為你知道當(dāng)時他……，我是說我去那里的時候，突然看到一個奇怪的人看著我。于是我問：“發(fā)生什么事了？怎么了？”當(dāng)時他身邊有8名保鏢。
 
A: No kidding!
 
別開玩笑了！
 
B: Yes! He was with his wife and his daughter and the child. Yeah it was interesting. You know that's just one anecdote but still, I'm , the Galapagos Islands, what I can tell you is that, it's a unique place, but you have to go there, sooner than later is better because I think the whole ecosystem will collapse.
 
就是這樣！他和妻子、女兒、外孫一起去度假。這很有意思。你知道這只是一件軼事，不過我可以告訴你，加拉帕戈斯群島是一個獨特的地方，我認為你一定要盡早去那里看看，因為我想那里的整個生態(tài)系統(tǒng)將會崩塌。
 
A: Oh, no!
 
哦，不！
 
B: Yeah! The situation is very complicated because lack of ---- of the government. The poor fisherman, and they don't have any kind of way to actually make a living by destroying the system. And all the money just goes to the big tourist companies that are taking tourists and you go to the capital, to Quito, but the people on the Islands, they don't have money, so they are, there's no control, for fishing, I mean, sharks and lobsters and tuna and so on, so everything is terrible. I was very very upset with the situation, and also you know, it's a kind of tourism for rich people and I was the only Ecuadorian in the group
 
是這樣。那里的情況非常復(fù)雜，因為缺少政府的管理。那里的漁民很貧窮，由于生態(tài)系統(tǒng)被破壞，實際上他們并沒有謀生的方法。而所有的營利都進了大型旅游公司的口袋，他們會帶游客旅游，你可能會去首都基多，但是那些島上的人們沒有收入來源，所以那里對漁業(yè)并沒有管制，我是說，他們會捕食鯊魚、龍蝦、金槍魚等等，所有的事情都非常糟糕。我對那里的現(xiàn)狀非常擔(dān)心，而且你知道，這對富人來說是旅游，而我是那個團里唯一的厄瓜多爾人。
 
A: Really! That's not good.
 
真的嗎？那不太好。
 
B: Yes, that's not good. You know we were just servers and waitresses and waiters and Ecuadorians so, for me it was, I was 5 days there. You know it's very beautiful to see the animals and birds but me being an Ecuadorian I had a completely different point of view. I was very disappointed frankly.
 
對，不太好。你知道我們只是服務(wù)員、服務(wù)生、厄瓜多爾人，我在那里待了五天的時間。你知道見到那些動物和鳥類是件美好的事情，但是我作為厄瓜多爾人來說，卻有著完全不同的看法。坦率地說，我非常失望。
