关于旅游英语口语1
免税商店
CAROL: I never understand why these shops have so much liquor1.
JOHN: What do you mean? It's because it's much cheaper to buy liquor duty-free.
CAROL: But why? Why don't people like to buy shirts duty-free? Or shoes?I just don't understand why it's always liquor.
JOHN: Well, it's because in most countries liquor has a higher tax on it.
CAROL: You mean liquor has a higher tax than other things?
JOHN: Yes, of course. Didn't you know that?
CAROL: No, I didn't. How high is the tax?
JOHN: Well, it is different in different countries.But it's because of the high tax that buying liquor duty-free is such a good deal.
CAROL: Why would the government want to tax liquor so much?
JOHN: Liquor is considered a luxury2 item.And also, it is considered as something that isn't very healthy.So if people want to buy it, the government thinks it has the right to tax it.
CAROL: That's why a lot of people buy cigarettes here too, isn't it?
JOHN: Of course. Cigarettes are also taxed very heavily.
CAROL: Now I understand. But I don't smoke or drink.So what am I supposed to buy in here?
JOHN: You can buy some of these nice butterflies.
CAROL: No, I'm sorry.I don't think it is nice to have butterflies mounted3 in boxes.It is kind of disgusting.
JOHN: What? You feel sorry for the butterflies?
CAROL: Yes. I think they should just let them fly free,and not try to sell them to foreigners. It is a kind of destruction4 of nature.
JOHN: Well, I agree with you.I'd rather think that the butterflies are flying around in the mountains.I just wonder if they really catch so many that it affects the butterfly population.
CAROL: Who knows? Hey, I like these jade5 bears here.
JOHN: How much are they?
CAROL: This one is 2300 dollars.Maybe I should buy it for my mother. What do you think?
JOHN: If you want. Didn't you buy her a small vase already?
CAROL: Yes, but she would like this a lot. She likes to collect little things like this.
JOHN: Alright. Buy it then.I won't buy anything. Well, maybe I'll buy some Cognac.
CAROL: Maybe I could buy some Cognac for my brother. He always drinks it.
JOHN: Let's go ask about it.
卡罗:我从来不了解为什么这些店有这么多种类的酒。
约翰:什么意思?因为买免税的酒便宜很多。
卡罗:为什么?为何大家不喜欢买免税的衬衫或鞋子呢?我就是不懂为何总是酒类。
约翰:因为大部分的国家酒类含税比较高。
卡罗:你是指酒比其它物品含税更高吗?
约翰:是啊,当然。你不知道吗?
卡罗:我不知道。税有多高呢?
约翰:每个国家都不一样,但是因为酒类含税较高,所以买免税酒很划得来。
卡罗:为什么政府要扣酒类的税如此重呢?
约翰:酒类被视为是奢侈品。而且不是很健康的东西。所以如果大家要采购的话,政府认为有权扣税。
卡罗:这也是很多人在这买香烟的原因,对不对?
约翰:当然,香烟的税也很重。
卡罗:现在我懂了,但是我又不抽烟或喝酒。那我应该在这买什么好呢?
约翰:你可以买这些不错的蝴蝶标本。
卡罗:不,很抱歉。我不想要拥有盒装的蝴蝶标本。有点恶心耶。
约翰:不会吧?你替蝴蝶感到难过吗?
卡罗:是的,我认为应该让他们自由地飞翔,而不是试着卖给外国人,这样有点破坏自然。
约翰:对,我同意你的说法。我宁愿这些蝴蝶在山林里飞舞着,我只是想知道他们捕捉这么多是否会影响蝴蝶的数目。
卡罗:谁知道?嘿,我比较喜欢这些玉熊。
约翰:这些多少钱?
卡罗:这个是两千三百美元。也许我应该买给我妈,你觉得呢?
约翰:想买就买吧,你不是已经买给她一个小花瓶了?
卡罗:是啊,但是她会很喜欢这个,她喜欢收集像这样的小东西。
约翰:好啊,那就买吧。我什么也不买,也许我会买一些白兰地酒。
卡罗:也许我可以买一些白兰地酒给我哥,他老是喝那个。
约翰:我们去问问吧!

KAREN: I'm not comfortable1 about this, Sandy.I don't understand most of these games.
SANDY: That's okay2. I can explain3 a little.
KAREN: I don't want to lose4 all my money.
SANDY: Don't worry. You can't lose all your money.because you won't gamble5 all your money.
KAREN: I guess you're right.
SANDY: Of course6 I'm right. I already7 told you the rule for Las Vegas. Remember?
KAREN: Yes, I remember.You must decide8 how much money you will gamble before you start to play.
SANDY: That's right. That's the best way to have control9 over yourself10.You say to yourself. "Tonight I will gamble fifty dollars. Only fifty dollars. No more."If you follow the rule, you can't lose more than fifty dollars.
KAREN: I know it's true11, Sandy. But still some people lose control.They start to gamble, and they can't stop.
SANDY: But I won't let you do that. I will watch you.
KAREN: Okay.
SANDY: So how much do you want to gamble?
KAREN: Maybe 500 dollars.
SANDY: 500 dollars! That's too much!You just said12 you are afraid to lose your money.If you're afraid, why do you want to gamble 500 dollars?
KAREN: I don't want people to think I'm stingy.
SANDY: That is a bad attitude13 to have, Karen!If you think that way, Las Vegas will be really dangerous for you.
KAREN: So how much should I gamble?
SANDY: Why not fifty or one-hundred dollars?
KAREN: Okay. One-hundred then. Do you think I will lose it?
SANDY: I don't know. You have to be smart, but you have to be lucky15 too.Some games are allluck14. With some, you need to be smart.
KAREN: I want games that are all luck.
SANDY: I knew you would16 say that! Then you should play the slot17 machines18.

KAREN: Oh, don't be so strict23! We are in Las Vegas.
SANDY: Yes, and if I stay with you, we will have to walk back home to New York.Because we will lose all our money and our plane tickets too!
凯伦:我在这里很不自在,仙蒂。大部分的游戏我都不懂。
仙蒂:没关系,我会一点。
凯伦:我不想输光所有的钱。
仙蒂:别担心,你不会一文不剩的因为你不能把所有的钱都拿来赌。
凯伦:你说得对。
仙蒂:那当然。我告诉过你来拉斯维加斯的原则,记得吗?
凯伦:记得。在你开始玩之前,先决定要花多少钱来赌。
仙蒂:没错,这是控制自己最好的方法。你告诉自己今天晚上我只赌 50 美元,就是 50 美元,不能超过。如果你遵守,就不会输掉超过 50 美元。
凯伦:没错。不过有些人还是不能控制。他们一开始赌博就停不下来了。
仙蒂:我不会让你这么做的,我会看着你。
凯伦:好的。
仙蒂:你要花多少钱赌博?
凯伦:大概 500 美元。
仙蒂:500 美元?太多了!你刚刚不是还说怕输光吗,那为什么要赌 500 美元?
凯伦:我不想让人觉得我很小气。
仙蒂:那是错误的心态。如果你那样想,拉斯维加斯对你而言是极危险的。
凯伦:那么我应该花多少钱呢?
仙蒂:50 或 100 美元如何?
凯伦:那么 100 美元好了,我会输光吗?
仙蒂:我不知道。你必须用脑,还要靠点运气。有些游戏是全靠运气,有一些则必须用点大脑。
凯伦:我想玩靠运气的。
仙蒂:我就知道你会这么说,那么你该玩玩吃角子老虎。
凯伦:吃角子老虎?我不想玩那个,太无聊了。我想玩扑克牌或是骰子。
仙蒂:那么你想玩什么游戏?
凯伦:21 点。我们玩 21 点,玩个 100 或 200 美元。
仙蒂:什么?你开始破坏规则了,我们都还没开始玩呢!
凯伦:别太严格嘛,我们是在赌城耶。
仙蒂:是啊!如果我和你在一起,我们就要走路回纽约了!因为我们会输个精光,连机票也没了。
