英文原版对话1000个:904 Speak English?

Brian: Hey Fanny.

Fanny: Hey, Brian.

Brian: How's it going¹?

Fanny: Not bad.

Brian: Alright, so we're asking each other questions about our countries, and last question that I asked was³, "when was a good time to visit?" but I have another question for you, if you don't mind⁴.

Fanny: Yeah, sure go ahead⁵.

Brian: As² you might⁶ have noticed⁷, I'm not Chinese, and I don't speak any Chinese.

Fanny: OK.

Brian: Is it going to be hard for someone⁸ who only speaks English to travel⁹ in your country?

Fanny: Yeah, that's a good question. You know, I mean, if you go to China and now if you cannot speak Chinese, of course¹⁰ it will be a little bit¹¹ difficult for you because you know there will be the 2008 Olympic¹² games, in Beijing right, in 2008 so there are a lot of Chinese people who can speak English right there, so I think they can help you.

Brian: See, I don't know if I would¹³ be going during¹⁴ the Olympic Games because, like, maybe it's really crowded¹⁵ and really kind of busy. I'm thinking¹⁶ to go in... maybe before that when it may be a bit quieter.

Fanny: Hmmm ... sorry. I think maybe I made¹⁷ you confused¹⁸, I mean because people are getting ready for the Olympic Games,so people are just, you know, learn English to communicate¹⁹ with foreigners²⁰ to help them and to guide²¹ them ... so I mean, what I meant, you can find a lot of people who can speak English there.

Brian: Oh, so because of the games many people are learning²² English ... but I could²³ still ... even²⁴ if I didn't go during that time, English people are still around.

Fanny: Right, right exactly²⁵. If you go to the shops most people there can already²⁶ speak English, Japanese²⁷ or Korean²⁸.

Brian: Oh really?

Fanny: Yeah, so ...

Brian: Very talented people in your country.

Fanny: Yeah, we can say that.
