丹尼爾:哈娜,我計劃去日本旅行,可是因為我從來沒去過日本,這是我第一次去,我不太確定應(yīng)該做什么。你能不能幫幫我?
Hana: Well first you should definitely go to a temple or a shrine. It describes Japan. And there are many famous temples all over Japan. So you should definitely visit one.
哈娜:首先,你一定要去寺廟或神社。那是日本的代表。日本各地有許多非常著名的寺廟。你一定要去看看。
Daniel: Okay, that sounds really interesting. Anything else that I should try? How about for example, Japanese food?
丹尼爾:好,這聽起來很有意思。其他我還應(yīng)該嘗試些什么?日本的飲食怎么樣?
Hana: Well Japanese food is very famous, for example, fish like sushi or sashimi, Japanese people love it, and so does foreign people.
哈娜:哦,日本的食物非常有名,比如壽司和生魚片之類的,日本人非常喜歡吃,當(dāng)然外國人也很喜歡。
Daniel: Yeah, especially because sushi is getting really, really popular everywhere now. So I'm really looking forward to trying proper Japanese sushi. How about anything else, any like cultural experience or something that Japanese people do every day?
丹尼爾:嗯,現(xiàn)在壽司在各個地方都很受歡迎。我期待嘗嘗正宗的日本壽司。那文化體驗?zāi)?,還有日本人的日常生活呢?
Hana: Well you should try and go to an onsen, it's a hot spring, it's a big bath where you can all go. It'll be different and it would be kind of weird at first. But I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
哈娜:你應(yīng)該去感受下日式溫泉,那相當(dāng)于大的浴盆,可以容下很多人。那非常與眾不同,一開始你可能會感覺有點怪異。不過我確定你會喜歡的。
Daniel: Why do you say it's going to be weird?
丹尼爾:你為什么說會有些怪異?
Hana: Well a lot of people at first, they're embarrassed to be naked in front of people. But once you get used to it, you'll enjoy it and you would want to go every day.
哈娜:因為一開始有很多人感覺在別人面前脫光衣服很尷尬。不過一旦你習(xí)慣以后,你會享受的,而且你會想每天都泡溫泉。
Daniel: Yeah. I'm not sure if I'm okay with being naked in front of people. But if you say that I have to try it I probably will. Do you have any big celebrations or any like big events that I can see in Japan?
丹尼爾:嗯,我不確定我是不是能接受在其他人面前脫光衣服。不過如果你說我應(yīng)該嘗試一下的話,那我可能會去的。有沒有什么我在日本可以參加的重要慶典或是重要的活動?
Hana: Well, in Japan there are many festivals all around the year. For example, in the summertime there is a huge festival where there is parades and you get to see the fireworks and you can see people in their traditional yukata. And you can try lots of food too.
哈娜:日本全年都有許多慶典。比如,夏天有一場盛大的慶典,屆時會有慶祝游行,你可以看到煙花,還可以看到人們穿上傳統(tǒng)的和服。而且你還可以品嘗很多美食。
Daniel: Oh, that sounds really interesting, especially because I'm going in summer. Is there anything I shouldn't do in Japan or that I should be really careful with?
丹尼爾:哦,聽上去真有趣,因為我正好要夏天去日本旅行。那在日本有沒有不應(yīng)該做的事,或者我應(yīng)該注意的事情?
Hana: Well, Japan is a very quiet country and a very polite country. So you shouldn't be too loud or you should be polite to the older people.
哈娜:日本是一個非常寧靜的國家,也是一個非常注重禮貌的國家。所以你不應(yīng)該大聲說話,對待老人要有禮貌。
Daniel: Well yeah, I'm trying to keep that in mind, because especially my friends are quite loud. Thank you very much for the tips.
丹尼爾:嗯,我要記住這點,因為我的朋友們嗓門都很大。非常謝謝你提供的小貼士。
Hana: You're welcome.
哈娜:不客氣。
