实战口语情景对话 第125期:巴厘岛 Bali

 Todd: OK, Phil, you've been talking about your trip to Asia. I have a couple weeks,so I can go anywhere in Asia, what do you recommend¹ that I do if i only have two

weeks?

好，Phil, 跟我们说说你去亚洲旅行的经历吧。我有几周的假，所以我可以去亚洲的任何地方，比方说我有两个礼拜的假你建议我去哪呢？

Phil: How much money do you have?

你有多少钱？

Todd: Maybe $2,000, $3,000.

两三千吧。

Phil: If I were you I'd probably go to Indonesia². -- Do you like surfing?

如果我是你，我可能会去印度尼西亚。你喜欢冲浪吗？

Todd: You know, I've never surfed.

你知道的，我从来不玩那个。

Phil: OK, well, Indonesia is not a bad place to learn either. I'd recommend going, flying in to Denpassar, and getting down towards Dreamland beach. That's at the southern most tip of Bali. The waves there, I'm a beginning surfer too, the waves there aren't very big, 5, 5, 4 - 5 feet, and just really nice people there. The locals are willing³ to help you. You meet a lot of Balinese young kids, 12, 13 years old. They're singing in the water as they surf. They're giving each wave names, so It's a lot of fun and there's no attitude, and people are there just to have fun. It's a good time.

好吧。或者说印尼还是个学习的好地方。我建议你去。飞到Denpassar，然后再梦境海滩着陆。那是最南端的巴厘岛。那儿有海浪。我也是一个冲浪初学者，那儿的海浪倒不是很大，5尺，呃4-5尺吧，而且那儿确实是有些很不错的人。当地人都很愿意帮助你。你会碰到很多十二三岁的巴厘岛下孩儿，边冲浪还边唱歌。他们还给每个海浪起了名，所以说那有很多有趣的地方，而且一视同仁，人们都喜欢去那儿尽享快乐时光。

Todd: Wow, that sounds nice. 哇，听起来不错啊。

Phil: That area of Indonesia is really nice. Lombok is nice too. If you are more wanting to relax, I would go to Lombok, and then go up to Gili Trawangan, which is a small island off the east coast of Lombok. There's no cars on the island. The electricity is a little dodgy. It might flicker⁴ on and off. Food is great. You get fresh fish all the time. Snorkeling's nice if you like scuba⁵ diving. You can arrange⁶ tours through several companies there. But, yeah, I really like Gili Trawangan and I would recommend that to anyone who wants to relax for a couple of weeks. 印尼那个地儿确实不错。龙目岛也不错。如果你想多休息的话，我建议你去龙目岛，之后去吉利特拉王岸，那是龙目岛东海岸的一个小岛。在那儿还没有车，而且电有一点儿不稳。时而有时而没有。你总可以钓到新鲜的鱼。如果你喜欢潜水，那浮潜不错。你可以跟那儿的几家公司商量如何安排行程。但，我是真的很喜欢吉利特拉王岸，我把他推荐给任何一个想休假几个星期的人。
