M: when I was young, my parents took me to the one in California. I always forget which—is that one Disneyland or Disneyworld?

I: the one in Forida is Disneyworld and the one in California is Disneyland, so you must have been to Disneyland.

M: that's right. Why do you ask?

I: well, I've never been to either so I was thinking of going to Disneyworkd for my honeymoon¹.

M: when are getting married?

I: some time next year. We haven't set the date yet.

M: congratulations! I had no idea.

I: thank you. So what do you think? Would we have a good time?

M: do you like amusement parks?

I: for the most part, yes. Some of the rides are bit too crazy for me, though.

M: if you don't think twice about the rides and go on every ride that you can, you'll have a good time.

I: even the roller coasters that go through tunnels in the dark?

M: even those. It'll be very romantic, I think. You'll have loads of fun.

I: thanks for the advice. I'll talk to my fiance about it tonight.

M: I'm sure he'll love the idea. Just throw yourself into it and you'll enjoy it!
你去过迪士尼世界吗?
小时候,我爸爸妈妈带我去过加利福尼亚的那个.我总是记不住—那个到底是迪士尼乐园还是迪士尼世界?
佛罗里达的那个是迪士尼世界,加利福尼亚的那是是迪士尼乐园,所以你肯定去的是迪士尼乐园了.
没错,你为什么问这个?
我两个都没去过,所以正在考虑度蜜月的时候去迪士尼世界玩.
你什么时候结婚?
大概是明年.具体日子我们还没定呢.
恭喜你!我都不知道.
谢谢.你觉得那儿怎么样?我们能玩得开心吗?
你喜欢去游乐园?
总的来说还是挺喜欢的.不过,有的游乐设施我有点害怕,不敢坐.
如果你能不假思索地去坐每样游乐设施,而且什么都能玩,那你们就一定能玩得开心.
即使是在黑暗中穿越的那种过山车也要玩吗?
是的.我觉得那会非常梦幻,你能获得很多快乐.
谢谢你的意见.我今晚会跟我未婚夫商量的.
我敢保证他会爱上这个主意的.你们尽管全情投入,一定会乐在其中.
M: well, how was your honeymoon?

I: it was fantastic! We had such a good time. The only problem was that because it was their high season, we spent hours queuing.

M: peak periods always entail² hours of queuing. At least you got a nice tan³ though!

I: yes, Florida had great weather while we were there. You look tan, too. Did you go somewhere?

M: my friends and I just got back from Bali.

I: wow! Bali Islands have some of the best beaches in the world, don't they?

M: yes, we were lucky. My friend's father owns a resort⁴ on one of the islands, so we were able to stay for free.

I: did you go diving while you were there?

M: I took a few diving classes, but I didn't really like it, so I did snorkeling instead!

I: did you take any pictures in the ocean?

M: I've got quite a few pictures of all different kinds of fish. I'll show them to you next time I see you.

I: have you srarted planning your christmas vacation yet?

M: we're planning on going skiing in Switzerland. Do you ski?

I: no, but I do like snowboarding.

M: would you like to go skiing with us for christmas?

I: I'll talk to my husband about it; I'm sure he'll say yes! He loves Switzerland!

M: it is Europe's soptless land of lakes and mountains! Let me know as soon as you can so we can get a discount.
嗨,蜜月过得如何啊?
棒极了!我们玩得特别开心.唯一的遗憾是因为赶上旅游旺季,所以我们花了很多时间派对.
旺季的确需要花上好几个小时排队.不过,至少你们的肤色晒得很漂亮啊!
是啊,我们到佛罗里达的时候,那儿的天气很好.你看起来肤色也不错,你去什么地方玩了吗?
我和我朋友刚从巴厘岛回来.
哇!巴厘岛是世界上最优质的沙滩,是吧?
没错,我们很幸运.我朋友的父亲在其中一个岛上有一个度假山庄.所以我们可以免费住在那儿.
你在那儿玩的时候有没有潜水?
我上了几节潜水课,可是实在不喜欢,所以最后还是去打斯诺克台球了.
在大海里照相了吗?
我拍了很多张各种各样的鱼,下次见到你的时候带给你看.
你现在开始筹划圣诞假期的活动了吗?
我们打算去瑞士滑雪.你会滑吗?
不会,不过我很喜欢单板滑雪.
你愿意圣诞的时候跟我们一起去滑雪吗?
我得跟我丈夫商量下,我敢保证他会答应的.他哎瑞士!
