實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：Three Things 三選一

Todd: OK, Eucharia, we're going to play a game: 'Choices'. I will say 3 things, you tell me which would you choose. Ok, the first one: coffee, tea or water in the morning?

托德：好，尤查里亞，我們要玩?zhèn)€游戲：選擇。我會說三件東西，你告訴我你的選擇。好，首先是：你早上會喝咖啡，茶還是水?

Eucharia: Water.

尤查里亞：水。

Todd: Water!

托德：水!

Eucharia: Yeah, when I wake up I usually have 2 glasses of water and then at the moment I'm trying not to drink coffee and not to drink caffeine so at the moment it's water but if I were given a choice normally it would be coffee.

尤查里亞：對，我起床后一般會喝兩杯水，現(xiàn)在我會盡量不喝咖啡還有含咖啡因的飲料，現(xiàn)在我的選擇是水，不過通常情況下如果你問我我會選擇咖啡。

Todd: Ok how about at night time. You're at a party, which would you rather have: beer, wine or a cocktail?

托德：好，那晚上呢?假設(shè)你在參加派對，你想喝什么：啤酒、葡萄酒還是雞尾酒?

Eucharia: It depends on the party. If I'm going dancing, cocktail. If I'm going out eating, wine and if it's just friends getting together, beer.

尤查里亞：這要取決于哪種派對。如果我去跳舞，我會選雞尾酒。如果我是去享受美食，我會喝葡萄酒，如果是朋友們聚在一起，那就會喝啤酒。

Todd: You're on an aeroplane and you're flying across the ocean. What would you prefer to read: newspaper, a magazine or a book?

托德：假設(shè)現(xiàn)在你在飛機上，正在飛越海洋。你會選擇看什么：報紙、雜志還是書?

Eucharia: A book, definitely.

尤查里亞：當(dāng)然是書。

Todd: A book, why a book? That was a very strong answer!

托德：書，為什么是書?這個回答很肯定啊!

Eucharia: I love reading. I have to read every night before I go to sleep for maybe 30 minutes so I really enjoy reading and I find that I emotionally engage with the book and what's happening in the book and I forget the fact that I'm on a 12 hour inter-continent flight.

尤查里亞：我喜歡讀書。每天晚上睡前半小時我都會讀書，我真的很喜歡看書，我發(fā)現(xiàn)我會把情感投入到我看的書上和書中講述的內(nèi)容上，我會忘記我坐的航班是12個小時的洲際航班。

Todd: Ok you have to choose between 3 seasons: summer, fall or winter.

托德：好，你要從三個季節(jié)中選擇：夏季、秋季還是冬季?

Eucharia: Summer.

尤查里亞：夏季。

Todd: Summer?

托德：夏季嗎?

Eucharia: I love sunshine, I love heat, I can't stand rain, which is why I don't live in my home country and I don't like snow.

尤查里亞：我喜歡陽光，我喜歡熱度，我不能忍受雨水，這就是我不在我的祖國生活的原因，而且我也討厭下雪。

Todd: Ok I'm with you on that. Ok next one. To pass the time at night you can watch TV, you can check the internet or you can watch a movie, a dvd. What would you prefer?

托德：在這點上我和你一樣。好下一個。晚上消磨時間可以看電視、上網(wǎng)或者看電影光盤。你更喜歡哪個?

Eucharia: Probably watching a dvd because, yeah if I'm on the internet I'm on the internet at work and so I don't want to go on the internet late at night because I start thinking too much and I can't sleep.

尤查里亞：可能是看電影光盤，因為我白天工作時就一直在網(wǎng)上，所以晚上我不太想繼續(xù)上網(wǎng)，因為那樣我會想很多事情而無法入睡。

Todd: Ok last one. You're at the beach. Would you prefer to: play a sport on the beach, on the sand; go in the water and swim or surf; or lie on the beach and get a tan?

托德：好，最后一個問題。想象一下你現(xiàn)在在海灘。你喜歡哪個：在沙灘上進行運動;在海里游泳或沖浪;還是躺在沙灘上曬日光浴?

Eucharia: Lie on the beach and get a tan! Yep, I'm from a country we don't see a lot of sunshine so I still get very excited when I see sunshine. Maybe I'll go to the beach and maybe I'll go to the water and swim a bit but my favourite thing is to lie on the beach and get a tan.

尤查里亞：躺在沙灘上曬日光浴!我們國家的陽光并不充足，所以我看到陽光時會非常興奮。也許我會在沙灘上玩，然后去水里游會兒泳，不過我最喜歡的是躺在沙灘上曬日光浴。

Todd: Thanks Eucharia.

托德：謝謝你，尤查里亞。

Eucharia: You're welcome.

尤查里亞：不客氣。
